Adding / moving purchased plugins

Questions
#1

feature request

Main point of this request is, that users need to be able to work with plugins and move them from project A to project B, when purchased plugin is removed “unlinked” from project.

Current state

User purchase plugin, that is by default assigned to specific project. This part is ok.
Then, author can remove plugin from project and at this point, he is not able to add plugin into project in any case.

Problem

After removing, user / author is not able to re-asign purchased plugin to anywhere, because “Add to project” works only one way - new purchase and assign plugin.

Expected behaviour

After removing plugin, it may be able to ask user / author, if he wish to assign existing purchased plugin to project. Question is, if it will show on “Add to project” modal, or remove that “Purchase” modal behaviour when current purchased project is “available as unassigned”…

Hey @snipi , this is already supported. After removing a plugin from a project, you can reassign it from the project settings page.

Here are the steps:

  1. Remove the plugin from Project A (which you’ve already done)
  2. Go to your Account page and open Project B (the project you want to move it to)
  3. There should be an option to rebind/reattach purchased plugins that are currently unassigned
  4. Select the plugin from the list and it will be reassigned to Project B without any additional purchase

The key thing is that rebinding is done from the project side, not from the plugin’s product page. When you visit the plugin page and click “Add to Project,” that flow is specifically for new purchases, which is why it shows the checkout.

Hope that helps. Let us know if you have trouble finding the rebind option on the project page.
