The free version is ad-supported after the free trial ends
You get to use the full product with all the basic and advanced features free for 15 days.
After your free trial period expires, the advanced features will be disabled and you may notice advertisements from Google appearing at the bottom of your website.
These ads are a way for us to recoup some of the cost of making the basic version completely free.
You can make the ads go away (and get all the advanced features back permanently) by
purchasing a full version license for your website,
or you can continue to use the ad-supported basic version forever for free.
Note to web hosts: Does not apply to websites hosted on licensed servers
If you are in the web hosting business and you purchase a ProServer license package for one or more of your web servers,
and you set up your Branding Controls in the partner area so that sites start out with basic features only
(e.g., so you can require a hosting plan upgrade before they get advanced features),
you don't have to worry about our Google Ads showing up on your customers websites.
The Google ads are only for unlicensed websites. Your customers websites will technically be licensed websites
because they are sitting on a licensed server
(i.e., one that you purchased a ProServer license for).

Who is this for?
This installer is designed to make the installation process (much) easier for people
who want to build a website (or several websites) with Soholaunch Pro Edition, but do not have access (through their web hosting provider)
to one of the control panel-based installer solutions available
(i.e. Fantastico, 4PSA).

What does it do?
It will install the latest version of Soholaunch Pro Edtion
on your website.
For 15 days, all of the full-version features will be turned on for you.
After your full-version trial expires you can keep using all of the ProBase features forever for free,
or you can purchase a full-version license at any time and pick up where you left off with the advanced features.
There's no limit on the number of sites you can setup with this script.
Can I use this to upgrade from v4.8?
Yes! The process for upgrading is the same as for installing, and it will only affect the software files used for the site admin tool,
not your actual website content.
CLOSE
Note: If you already have Pro Edition installed on your website and want to update your copy to the latest version,
this script can do that too. To update, you follow the same the instructions (shown below) for installing a new copy.
In Step 5, after it installs the latest Pro Edition software files on your website,
this script will automatically detect that you already have a website set up and take you straight to the normal
login page (skipping the 'new site setup' step). This will also install important security patches.
