Nik Grey Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 I logged into my 'Shopdev' account last night as my new skin's activation key was not being accepted - I checked my license details to find that it was licensed to: http://jollygr**njiant.greyprint.co.uk/ I told Shopdev about this and it has been rectified but this leaves me wondering whats going on ? if I navigate to http://jollygr**njiant.greyprint.co.uk/ (replace the * with 'e') I still get to my shop ! So, somehow somebody has added this subdomain - I am nervous as I don't want people being directed to me via this other subdomain. Whats the purpose of this I wonder? I did a quick search for this character and didn't like the results.. .. I just heard from shopdev: Licenses are locked to one or more domains. The license can only be "unlocked" through the Client Panel. The only way in which your license could have been "hijacked" is that your license had not been locked to your primary domain (because it had not "called home" after switching over from a trial license) and your site was then accessed through a different domain. I can confirm that your license is now locked to xxxxx Has this happened to anyone else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Brookbanks Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Looks to me like any subdomain on your domain works. http://anything.gr**print.co.uk Maybe you have an A record setup so any subdomain works. I'm sure your hosting company and/or domain registrar can help fix this. I don't think anyone has added the subdomain in your hosting. It does beg the question as to why your shopdev domain changed. Either; 1. There was a mistake and it got updated incorrectly.2. They got hacked? Our servers have been hacked numerous times. It happens to the best of us. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
