Test phase production phase : Validation

I will buy the classic forum component for joomla.
Since i found on the site:

A validation key is a random string which is generated for a specific domain and product, you can use it to validate the intended product on that domain and all its sub domains. (the sub domain rule is new since November 2018)

I would ask if i have the site in test phase, when i will move it to production phase, will I have to buy it again?
​
Thanks

Works off of the domain name, not the Joomla installation. Just validate the main domain and it will work for sub domains.

mmm i work on local and then i'll export the site so
​
TEST -> 192.168.1.36
PRODUCTION -> www.realsiteurl.com

Hi Rey1981,
​
If your test site shows with the localhost URL then there is a free validation key you can use - see the Buy link above.
