Your download access used to expire with your support period. Not anymore. Before this update, the Download button on your account stopped working once that window closed. You still owned the product and held a valid license, but you needed active support just to get the file itself - whether that was something like the Anti-Spam and Bot Protection plugin, a theme, or any other product in your library.
Lose your copy, move to a new server, or need a clean reinstall, and renewing was the only path, even when you did not need a newer version or help from our team. Download access is now permanent. Support and updates stay tied to your support period; the ability to get the file you paid for does not.
This change is automatic. There is nothing to activate, and it is not limited to new buyers. It applies to all past and future orders, whether you purchased last week or ten years ago.
Product downloads on OsclassPoint are now permanent for every customer and every order - including purchases from years ago, even back when we operated as MB-Themes.com. If you bought a theme or plugin from us, you can download the version you are entitled to at any time, support period or not.
Every order includes one year of updates and support from the purchase date (four years for orders placed before November 2020 under MB-Themes.com). While that period is active, your Download button always gives you the newest version we release. After it ends, the button keeps working: you get the version that was current on the day your support ended - not the older build you may have installed first. If we shipped three updates during your support year, you keep the third. If nothing changed, you keep whatever was live at the end.
Need an earlier release instead? Open the product’s version history and pick any version published before your support ended. Our guide on how to download your themes and plugins walks through the full process, including backoffice installs covered in our market access setup guide.
Every product you bought shows its version, last update date, and a working Download button. The same permanent-access rule applies if you install through the backoffice market connection.
Two things still sit behind an active support period:
Renewing support is still the right call when you want new features, fixes, or help from our team - it puts you back on the newest releases and reopens ticket access for another year. It is no longer required just to re-download what you already paid for.
Question: Is there a recurring subscription to use OsclassPoint plugins?
Answer: No. Themes and plugins are a one-time purchase, not a monthly fee to keep using the product. Renewal is optional and only unlocks new updates and support after your support period ends.
Question: Can I buy an Osclass plugin once and use it forever?
Answer: Yes. You keep the right to use what you bought, and download access is permanent for the version you are entitled to. Only newer versions released after support ends, and ticket support, require a renewal.
Question: What happens if I stop paying for support on a plugin?
Answer: You keep permanent download access to the version that was live on your support-end date (or any earlier version). You do not get new updates released after that date, and ticket access stays closed until you renew.
Question: What is a perpetual software license on OsclassPoint?
Answer: It means your right to use the theme or plugin does not expire when the support period ends. On OsclassPoint that also includes permanent download access to the entitled version for reinstalls, server moves, and backups.
Question: What licensing model does OsclassPoint use?
Answer: Premium themes and plugins are sold under Single and Extended licenses. Each purchase includes a time-limited updates and support window, plus permanent rights to use and re-download the entitled product version afterward.
Question: Do permanent downloads apply to old orders and long-time customers?
Answer: Yes. The change is automatic for every customer and every order, including purchases from years ago and MB-Themes.com-era orders. Nothing to activate.
Question: Which version can I download after support expires?
Answer: The version live on the day your support ended, or any earlier version in the product history. Builds released after that date appear only after you renew.
Question: Where do I download my purchased themes and plugins?
Answer: Open Downloads at https://osclasspoint.com/user/downloads. Use Download on the product row, or click View for version history and pick an entitled past build.
Question: Is Osclass better than a subscription-based classifieds SaaS?
Answer: Different ownership models. Self-hosted Osclass plus an OsclassPoint purchase lets you keep using what you bought without a forced recurring fee just to retain the entitled files. Many classifieds SaaS tools charge ongoing fees to keep the site on their platform. Choose based on whether you want self-hosted ownership or a hosted subscription.
