FAQ
Here are some answers to the most frequently asked questions regarding Gplplace. We hope you find them useful and a good source of general information.
A. General
GPLPLACE is to help website owners or small developers who have enough knowledge and experience of WordPress that they do not need technical support that developers provide or who are running low on budget & need to buy the plugins for their own and clients projects. Sometimes the plugins needed for a client’s website can run into hundreds of dollars which is not even the budget in some developing countries. So this site aims to help knowledgeable people who don’t need support or automatic updates to save money.
Most people are familiar with the term ‘open source‘. It means a piece of software or code, that is free to use. You’re free to use, copy, study, change, improve or redistribute the software as you like.
It doesn’t mean that developers can’t charge you to buy the code they have developed. What it does mean is that once you have bought that code, you are free to do whatever you like with it.
… if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.

Some WordPress items downloaded from GPLPLACE.COM may ask for a registration code in your WordPress Dashboard. Some WordPress Plugins may even notify you, if there is an update available.
