The Developer's Licensing Program

Our developer's license program has launched!

The developer license is an affordable way to make sure your developers have access to the latest version of PxPlus with the latest development tools.

Please see below for some more details in regards to the program:

  • A developer license cannot be shared between multiple developers
  • This license is only for in-house development, design and testing purposes
  • It is not for resale and is not to be used on production systems
  • Nor is it to be used for normal business activities
  • The pricing is $100 for a 2 user web license
  • This license, while active, will always be for the latest PxPlus version
  • It will be renewable yearly and the renewal date will be your purchase date
  • We will send out reminder emails, closer to your renewal date, to renew your license

If you are interested in purchasing a developer's license, then please email us at:

User Groups Update

In January, we held our first Visual Studio Code Extension User Group meeting.

This meeting brought together five participants from around the globe for an engaging and productive session. 

During the session, we shared our plans for the PxPlus 2026 VS Code extension and demonstrated several upcoming features.

The feedback was very positive and attendees were excited about the direction we are heading. Some highlights included: 

  • Enhanced code navigation for labels, functions, and methods 

  • WindX plug-in connectivity support 

  • Compiling and listing programs 

  • Workspace based settings override via INI file in root workspace directory 

  • The ability to run the VS Code extension on Linux and macOS 

We also gathered valuable suggestions for additional enhancements, which we will be investigating further.

It was a great meeting, and we would like to thank everyone who participated. 

We are looking forward to reconnecting in a couple of months. 

In December, we held a JSON User Group follow-up meeting to review the new JSON object and discuss next steps moving forward. 

Our next .NET User Group meeting is scheduled for February. This meeting will review our planned PxPlus 2026 enhancements and invite participants to share ideas for new features.

Support Tickets and the Difference Between Server Moves and Server Resets

We wanted to provide some guidance in regards to support tickets for server moves or server resets.

When submitting a support ticket for a server move or reset, please keep the following in mind:

  • Server move: Use this when upgrading to a new server, or a new PxPlus version on a new server

  • You can run and test on both the new and old servers, with the option to roll back if needed, which means if anything incorrect occurs during testing you can still go back to the same version you were on, on the old server

  • Server reset: If something goes wrong and you cannot access the old server, request a server reset, an example could be there is a virus on the old server

  • An administrative fee may apply for server resets

  • After activation: If the activation file shows as activated, while running the program, but a "no activation found" error occurs, then check the activation file permissions and ensure it has read/write access
