Q: "Your copy of Reading Indicator plugin is not activated"

Hi,

Could you help me with this error message? How do I activate the plugin?

The plugin shows an error "Your copy of Reading Indicator plugin is not activated" with a button "Activate Now". After clicking the button, I just get the same message, but without the button.

What should I do?

A: Thanks for reaching out!

Good news: the Reading Indicator plugin does not require any activation at all.
There are no limits by domain, functionality, or license – it should work right after you install and activate the plugin in WordPress.

The message "Your copy of Reading Indicator plugin is not activated" most likely comes from another plugin (or a shared license/activation module), not from Reading Indicator itself.

To help you fix this, please:

Send me a screenshot of the error
– Please include the whole browser window where the message is visible.
– You can send it directly to support@42theme.com

Double-check the plugin name
– Open Plugins → Installed Plugins in your WordPress dashboard.
– Confirm that the plugin with the issue is really “Reading Indicator” by 42Theme.

(Optional) If you have other 42Theme plugins installed that use activation, let me know their names as well – that will help me find the source of the message faster.

Once I see the screenshot and plugin list, I’ll be able to tell you exactly what’s going on and how to remove that message.
