 * Hello there,
 * I’ve read in the release notes that you can share the locations database from
   one website with others:
 * 2.4.5
    Added an option to share the same database accross all sites of a multi-
   site network.
 * Unfortunately, I was unable to find the way to do it. Could you please help me
   out here?
 * I have 7 multisite and sharing one database to all of them would be a huge help.
   Especially, as all of the locations are the same, no matter where they are displayed.

 * Sveiki,
    sorry for not replying sooner. This note was referring to the old generation
   version (2.x) and this feature hadn’t been moved to the current gen (3.x). Anyway,
   I’ve made a quick fix and it’s now also available with the latest version update
   of 3.9.0.
 * The Pro version is required. It adds a new option to the form where the license
   code is entered. Go to Network Admin of you WordPress network, then Plugins, 
   click License & Options next to Locatoraid Pro. There’ll be the “Common Database
   For All Sites” option, set it to “Yes”. It will switch Locatoraid installations
   of all the sites to make use of the database of the first site.
 * I hope it’ll work for you, please let me know if you get any issues.

 * Thanks for the answer and solution! The only problem is that I am unable to update
   the plugin from WP. I click the “Check for updates” button, the plugin page refreshes
   and I see the message “Plugin is up to dat”.
 * Do I need to download the 3.9 version directly from your website?

 * The auto update for the Pro plugin sometimes couldn’t work if your site can’t
   connect to ours (firewalls, network connections aren’t allowed, etc). You can
   download the Pro version from our site with your license code. Alternatively,
   please drop me a line through [https://www.plainware.com/support/](https://www.plainware.com/support/)
   and I’ll reply with the latest version attached.
 * If your WordPress is newer than 5.4, you can update the plugin within the WordPress
   admin by uploading the new version through Plugins, Add New, Upload. It’ll tell
   that there’s an older version installed and ask if you wish to overwrite it. 
   For older WordPress versions you can manually upload the plugin through FTP.
