gp premium plugin with key is not updating on multisite

Just letting you know, that I had to do a manual update :-( since my GP premium plugin with license key was not automated updated on my multisite install.
Hi there,
I'm running a multisite install and usually no problem with updates as long as the license key is added for each individual site.
Were you encountering specific any errors?
Let me know :)
no, no specific error. Just had to find out by myself that a new version was released. I will keep an eye on future updates.
Need to make sure this is done for every subsite:
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/updating-gp-premium/#activating-updates
Every subsite that uses GP. It's up to the subsite admin to choose the theme. I hope a network activation key for GP premium will be introduced.
Think someone mentioned this before but it wasn't very easy to implement.
We will definitely keep it in mind :)
If one subsite has GP-theme activated and license-key added to GP-Premium, but the other sub-site has not, how can I perform the update at all? When trying to update G-Premium vai Network-Admin > Plugins I get the error "Update Failed: Update package not available."
Please help, thank you

Currently you need to make sure every subsite has valid license key activated and update individually.
Personally, I just upload the plugin file through ftp.
"Currently you need to make sure every subsite has valid license key activated and update individually."
Well, I plan to offer "WaaS" for consultants, who can sign-up, create their site (as a subdomain on this network or with custom domain via "domain mapping" feature that my network provides) and add their pages (about me, portfolio etc.).
I was hoping that I can provide GeneratePress and use my GP-Premium license (because it lets me use it on unlimited sites) as the main "webdesign system" (and Elementor if client needs even more control over the layout).
I could handle adding and updating GP-license on single-sites within my network easily, but as soon as more than 10 clients would use GP & GP-Premium, it would counterproductive to run the network at all.
Hence, if I cannot update GP-Premium from within the network administration easily and regardless, if clients use GeneratePress or stay with TwentySomething, I need to switch to a theme which supports this use-case. Would be sad to leave GeneratePress, but will now check Astras capabilities in this matter soon. I hope you will let us update from network admin in the future though :)
I have the same issues with Gp-Premium licence activation not be able to manage from my network area. Even my WPML licence has a network api key. I hope GP can give a roadmap that such a feature will come.
I'll mention this to Tom :)
