Hi, I have installed com_easyblog_launcher_pro_5.0.40_joomla today for the first time, I had no issues with installation, the documentation was excellent and there were no errors or problems.

However, when I open the Easyblog Dashboard, I see on the right hand side in the update area, "Requires Updating" and a note to please enter the valid api key.

In your documentation on this page https://stackideas.com/docs/easyblog/administrators/upgrades/single-click-updater it says to go to Joomla > Components > EasyBlog > Settings > System > API Key however on my System page there is no API Key window for entering this information.

Is there some other instructions for editing API Key?

Running Joomla 3.6.4.

Thanks, Nicola
Hi Nicola,

Is it you update using component/full package? Because as you update using the methods the license will not automatically inject in your system. It is recommended to update/install using launcher(via network).
However, afraid not, you can add the valid license in the system by key in the API key in the languages section
(EasyBlog>Languages)
I've helped you to key in your API key in the section, and the system already know that you've the valid license
Please have a looks : http://screencast.com/t/ilII6En1

Thanks.
Yes I installed EasyBlog using launcher(via network).

Since API Key setting has now moved, can you please update the documentation on this page In your documentation https://stackideas.com/docs/easyblog/administrators/upgrades/single-click-updater
it currently says to go to Joomla > Components > EasyBlog > Settings > System > API Key however the new location for API Key settting is Joomla > Components >EasyBlog >Languages.
