<div dir="ltr">Ok, i can lie to my users about "you can only use on 1 website" as pagelines doing while i will say theme is gpl in legal notices, so my naive users will buy extra licenses which normally they shouldnt need. I will keep this post's link if someone say something in future tho. And it seems lying to your customer have a new name.. <b>marketing.</b><div>

</div>And yet again, you point to the marketing pages... Those are not<br>
"terms", these are the terms:<br>
<a href="http://www.pagelines.com/terms-of-service/" target="_blank">http://www.pagelines.com/terms-of-service/</a><br>
<br>
For the specific case of the Pagelines DMS theme, it was actually<br>
not-approved with their first attempt:<br>
<a href="https://themes.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/14116" target="_blank">https://themes.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/14116</a><br>
<br>
They are making a second attempt now with a newly uploaded version:<br>
<a href="https://themes.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/14369" target="_blank">https://themes.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/14369</a><br>
<br>
And if you have specific issues with specific themes, those should be<br>
discussed *in ticket*. Here you have a company actively working on<br>
this theme that you're talking about, and you're complaining about<br>
them being listed totally elsewhere for "violations" of a rather<br>
nebulous nature. Why not tell them of your concerns, directly, by<br>
reviewing their theme and expressing your concerns? Attempt to fix<br>
things and make them better, sort of thing.<br>

</div>If this is indeed part of the theme, sure. My suggestion to them for<br>
the DMS theme was to remove that code from the theme and sell those<br>
editing tools separately, as an add-on.<br>
<br>
As for multisite, that theme that you're pointing to works fine on<br>
multisite. Again, their licensing is tied to support and add-ons that<br>
they sell for their themes. Read the actual terms, not the marketing.<br>
