Change licensee on the front page

[ChrissW-R1]

Hi guys,

we have a free community license, which shows a text on the bottom of every page:

Powered by a free Atlassian Confluence Community License granted to {organization name}. Evaluate Confluence today.

Now our licensee organization changed in our licenses. We want to change the organization name in this text too. Any ideas, how we do this?

Best regards,
ChrissW-R1

You should probably ask the one who gave you the free community license.
The entry could possibly also come from the "Custom HTML" area if it is displayed at the end of each page. Then have a look there.
However, if it is a patched confluence version, then see above.

The text added automatically on the setup, by enter the license key.

I already asked the Atlassian support team, but they send me to the community to answer this question.

We have no Custom HTML defined:

Where did you get the confluence software from?
From the download source from atlassian or from your licensor?

[ChrissW-R1]

This is a community license, we got it directly from Atlassian.

You could request it at the following url, if you match the requirements:
https://www.atlassian.com/software/views/community-license-request

Then you should ask atlassian whether you will get a changed license key or, if necessary, a new community software.

Hi @repi,

I already asked Atlassian, but they send me to this Atlassian Community. We should ask the community, they have to help us.

[repi]

Mhm, How should the community know how atlassian incorporates any additional expenses in the software for its license keys.

[ChrissW-R1]

Yeah, a good point. I send this discussion back to Atlassian.

I think you need a new license key.
The confluence recognizes from the key which type of license it is. For example, a productive license, a developer license or a community license. The name of the organization for which the license was created is then given in the community license.

Hi @repi,

thanks a lot for your help. Atlassian created new license keys and now everything is fine.
