New to wp n just learned about gpl themes/plugins. so my questions: 1. if gpl licensed themes/plugins are free, then why do these all gpl clubs charge money. 2. If a WordPress theme/plugin has a gpl licensed that means its some where available for free download from the source, what is the origin link for it or official repository from where all these clubs are sourcing it. where/how do they actually get it from, there has to be an official repository, so why cant we get it from there itself, can someone share official gpl repository ? 3.almost all paid themes,plugins required licence keys. so will these work without licence keys ? and for how long? 4.what about future updates ?how to update it, will we get autoupdates like regular or do we need to manually update it, will manual updates cause any changes in the exiting configuration settings n data ? 5. how do we verify its official gpl and not a nulled version of a theme or a plugin?
hey everyone, so i get alot of questions about GPL so i interviewed danny hadar from the software freedom law foundation to help some of these questions, ALSO if you have anything else you want to know feel free to email them! Also the questions I asked I probably should of mentioned are the questions asked: 1. What is Gpl 2.what is a the difference between a non gpl product and a gpl product 3. Can I resell Wordpress products? 4. Do companies have to provide support and updates? 5. How can companies protect their work? 6. Can I protect my logo or trademark on a gpl product? 7. Can I whitelabel gpl and non gpl products?
I download a plug-in from GPL mall (it is woo commerce point of sale), it seems broken and prevent me to un-install. Can I ask support from woo commerce or from GPL to fix this error? Thank you Darrel.
If I buy a plugin like Elementor for 10$ from a vendor under GPL who promises to provide lifetime updates, would they be mandated to abide by this promise, or they could just disappear after while. How am I protected in such a case
Hi Darrel, let me ask you question if anybody has to sell the modified software. But as per GPL terms, the modified software must be registered under GPL terms and under GPL terms the modified software is free, then how can he sell modified software for price?
Dropship rocket - learned just about everything regarding divi from your Udemy courses and UA-cam channel. Got my hosting via your links. Built my business dropship rocket a year ago using your training video made over 41k profit to date just wanted to say thanks.
So this is still confusing. I'm going to present a scenario and if someone can tell me if I'm in breach of the GPLv3 I'd much appreciate it. Scenario : I build a CNC machine based on Arduino. It uses a firmware named GRBL that is licensed under GPLv3. I make a prototype PCB board with the CNC machine for my tests and design. Then I finally finalize my product and get my PCB manufactured by a PCB fabrication house (i.e. JLCPCB). I now sell my product to make a profit. Do I now have to openly publish my PCB designs because I used firmware licensed under GPLv3 to make prototypes of the designs that later got improved upon and manufactured independently?
Very informative, are you able to get Danny back to discuss whether "GPL Clubs" are legal or not and whether you should use them? Or could you do a video explaining this?
Shane Barrett they are allowed when we talked about reselling and the freedom to redistribute them, but again you don’t get support or updates from them >
If you could change a software literally like the unreal engine or something then it’s wrong but if it just a test or it’s monitored and you have permission from the owner of the software then I guess it could but the truth is you can’t just around changing stuff

You Will Get Theme Free But Not At One Place .That's Why some Companies charges Money For Themes To Provide Updates And Virus-free Files.
Hi Yash, currently you are using GPL or purchased product?
hey everyone, so i get alot of questions about GPL so i interviewed danny hadar from the software freedom law foundation to help some of these questions, ALSO if you have anything else you want to know feel free to email them!
Also the questions I asked I probably should of mentioned are the questions asked:
1. What is Gpl
2.what is a the difference between a non gpl product and a gpl product
3. Can I resell Wordpress products?
4. Do companies have to provide support and updates?
5. How can companies protect their work?
6. Can I protect my logo or trademark on a gpl product?
7. Can I whitelabel gpl and non gpl products?
Answered the questions I had. Good video. Possibly the best on this topic.
Glad it was helpful!
So, can I use GPL themes for the sites that I sell to my clients?
Absolutely brilliant video, probably the most informative on the topic that I have seen on youtube.
Hi, I have a question, if I want to make a code or software under GLP 2 or 3, what should I do?
Add the GPL in your README. That'll be five bucks please.
I download a plug-in from GPL mall (it is woo commerce point of sale), it seems broken and prevent me to un-install. Can I ask support from woo commerce or from GPL to fix this error? Thank you Darrel.
Thank You Darrel & Danny great info.
Most useful video I saw on UA-cam about the GPL, that's awesome
are sites such as themeforest.net lying to us and causing us to pay extra to use software for client?
If I buy a plugin like Elementor for 10$ from a vendor under GPL who promises to provide lifetime updates, would they be mandated to abide by this promise, or they could just disappear after while. How am I protected in such a case
GPL should be free and open source
Hie Dennis have you tried purchasing that elementor for 10$ from GPL or using the Licensed version from official brand¿
Hi Darrel, let me ask you question if anybody has to sell the modified software.
But as per GPL terms, the modified software must be registered under GPL terms
and under GPL terms the modified software is free,
then how can he sell modified software for price?
They don't
You are awesome Darrel! :)
Thanks!!!
IM and SEO Tools you are welcome enjoy!
how to update the GPL product without losing any data?
Thank you for this. Great explanations!
Do you know any open source project to which i can contribute ?
That was really good information about Licensing and TradeMark.
Darrel, nicely done and bringing him in to talk. What about bringing him back on that EU law that was passed and how it affects US users?

That’s pretty awesome bro. These comments make my day, glad I could help you out bro

That’s crazy I literally just purchased a theme through them last night and had no idea what they were lol

Darrel always with value bombs! In 2019 we should hang out. Cheers bro.
Can make a 2021 version of this video, please ????🥺🥺🥺
GPL and Opensource is important
Very informative, are you able to get Danny back to discuss whether "GPL Clubs" are legal or not and whether you should use them? Or could you do a video explaining this?
Shane Barrett they are allowed when we talked about reselling and the freedom to redistribute them, but again you don’t get support or updates from them >
I’ll add some time stamps in the description tomorrow
Ok let me ask this question...are they ethical in your opinion?
Great discussion
thanks again for watching
This is gold! Thank a lot!
Am I the only one that came here looking for a Glider Pilots License breakdown...?
Haha...
Hahaha
Very helpful, thanks
good video
If you could change a software literally like the unreal engine or something then it’s wrong but if it just a test or it’s monitored and you have permission from the owner of the software then I guess it could but the truth is you can’t just around changing stuff
