The screen will only appear once per day, and each day will require a longer waiting period before access to the control panel is restored. (Not that we think anyone would ever find that out the hard way…)
It should go without saying, but this is a control panel-only change. Craft will never do anything to affect the front-end over licensing issues.
Pricing increases
Craft CMS and Craft Commerce license and renewal prices will increase on March 26. Craft CMS licenses will cost $399, and renewals will cost $99. Craft Commerce licenses will cost $1,199, and renewals will cost $299. (If you’ve already received an auto-renewal notification listing the current renewal prices, we will honor that.)
Thanks for your continued support! If you have any questions, you can reach us at support@craftcms.com.
Onward,
The Craft CMS Team
