Will the client whose site this is receive notifications that the plugin has an update, even if the license expires, and will consequently need to both renew the license and update the plugin? If the client decides not to do any updates for over a year, can he\/she renew the expired license at any time? If the license is updated regularly, are plugin updates automatically shown for the PRO version? <\/p>\n<p>Thanks!<br \/>\nAleks<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1592520","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Events Calendar vs Pro - update notifications -<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/theeventscalendar.com\/support\/forums\/topic\/events-calendar-vs-pro-update-notifications\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Events Calendar vs Pro - update notifications -\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Hi there!
