Hi,
thanks for reaching out. I have looked into it and can reproduce your issue.
It turns out to be a bug in the extension i use for handling downloads and subscriptions.
There are two codes:
Both can be used to validate if you have a valid subscription to download / upgrade.
but as it turns out: the validation check that the developer of the extension build in into the last release does the check only for the download ID. This is not correct. I will take this up with him.
In the meantime you can use the download ID instead of the watchful key in the plugin configuration.
Or wait until this gets fixed.
I will also follow up on your email.
thanks for reporting!
regards,
Ruud.

- Watchful ID: this is a unique code per customer (to be used on watchful)
