I’m not able to update my Promotions and Discount Codes plugin. This message is on my site:

An automatic update for Event Espresso – Promotions (EE 4.8+) is available but your Support License Key is invalid. Either you have entered the wrong key on the Event Espresso General Settings page (EE3+ users) or Your Organization Settings page (EE4+ users) OR you no longer have access to the updates for this plugin. Please log in to your Event Espresso account to manage your Support License Keys or purchase a support license right now.

This is what shows on my account page:
EE4 Promotions and Discount Codes

What do I need to do to remove the notice and update the plugin?

Thank you,
Laura

Hi Laura,

I do see that you have an active support license which includes support for the promotions add-on.

Could you dismiss the message via your WP dashboard and then go to Event Espresso –> General Settings and click on the Save button?

Thank you, Lorenzo.

I’ve done what you’ve asked. Next steps to enable updating the plugin?

Thank you,

Hello,

Go to your plugins page and then you should be able to click to update the add-on.

Hello Lorenzo. I’m not getting the update link on my plugins page. When I try to update the plugin via the Updates page, I get an error message.

Anything else you can think of without me having to uninstall the plugin and re-install? And if I do have to do that, will the plugin remember previous promotions/discounts and settings?

Thank you, Laura

Hi Laura,

Could you try a manual upgrade? This won’t remove any of your current promotions and here are the steps:

1) Deactivate and delete the current version of the promotions add-on

2) Go to your account page here and then click on the promotions add-on to download it: https://eventespresso.com/users/carolinaepicureanevents/#ee4-downloads

3) Then upload and activate it through your WordPress plugins screen within your WP dashboard.

Tried to download new copy of Promotions add-on and got this error message:

503 ( Invalid Key ): Sorry, your access to this file has expired. Please contact Support for assistance.

Can you email a zipped copy to redacted – Event Espresso support team – LOC or send a link to download?

Thank you,
Laura

Thank you. The latest version is now installed and seems to be working fine.
