Frequently Asked Questions
Here, we’ve answered the most common questions we receive about Sugar Calendar license verification.
How many sites can I use my Sugar Calendar license on?
Each of our license levels have different site limits. For example, our Basic license is limited to a single site. Check out our pricing page for the complete list of the site limits for each license level.
Do subdomains count towards site limits?
Yes, each subdomain or subsite counts separately towards your site limit. If you have reached your license level’s site limit, you can upgrade your license key for additional sites.
Does localhost/staging site count toward site limits?
Sites hosted locally do not count toward your site limit. On your Sugar Calendar dashboard, localhost sites have the label test site next to each of them. And do not add to the list of sites using your Sugar Calendar Events license.
For staging sites, however, it varies depending on your subdomain. If your staging site falls within the supported domain extensions, it will be labeled as a test site and will not count towards your site limit. Below, we’ve highlighted supported domain formats our system automatically detects as test sites:
- staging.*
- localhost
- 10.0.0.0/8
- 172.16.0.0/12
- 192.168.0.0/16
- *.dev
- *.local
- *.test
- dev.*
Congrats! Now that your license is verified, your site will receive automatic updates for Sugar Calendar Events.
