Hello,

I have set up Metabox AIO through Composer as a library in my custom plugin.

I have a paid license and used a separate license for the Composer library.

I am facing an issue regarding the license activation. The settings page for activating the license is inaccessible to the administrator user.

Field groups page screenshot: https://tinyurl.com/2ydyszz5
License settings page screenshot: https://tinyurl.com/2awb8ayc
Composer file screenshot: https://tinyurl.com/25q9wk8g

I am following this reference article: https://docs.metabox.io/integration/#using-composer

Question: Even adding Metabox AIO through composer as a library still do I need to activate my license for the Meta Box AIO through the WP Admin dashboard settings page again?

I chose the composer method because I don't want to activate the Meta Box AIO plugin manually. It should activate automatically.

Can you please help me to solve this issue?

Thanks

Yes, installing plugins via composer doesn't relate to the activated license key on your site. You still need to activate the license key on your site to use premium plugins.

If you cannot access the License page, try to activate the license key by adding the code to the file wp-config.php

define( 'META_BOX_KEY', 'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ123456' );

Following the documentation https://docs.metabox.io/updates/#can-i-define-the-license-key-via-a-constant-in-wp-configphp

Thanks, Peter!

It's working. However, I tried using the custom mu-plugin rather than modifying the wp-config file.
