For every branch, do I need to make a new database and put a script in a different folder?”
Why didn’t you mention in the instructions interface that a new license must be purchased for every branch that is opened, this is really unfair.
In the Smart School Multibranch Codecanyon page in Requirements, it’s already mentioned that -
Smart School (for home branch) pre installed on your server
Smart School (for other branches which will be add in home branch) pre installed on your server
Please check this https://i.imgur.com/9GLtAhR.png screenshot for more details.
So to add a branch to the Multibranch ( installed on your main/home branch) it is essential that your each and every branch has Smart School installed and registered with its respective purchase code.
Also in the Smart School Codecanyon page, it’s mentioned that to add branches in Multibranch, Smart School should be installed. Please check this https://i.imgur.com/EWkQRS8.png screenshot.
Do you have android app with teacher login? if so, can teacher take attendance?
Currently Smart School Android App available for student/parent panel. For staff like teachers, admin, accountant etc. we are developing separate android app for admin login panel which is currently under development. However if you want it currently so teacher will login through app and can take attendance then you can customize your Smart School Android App for admin webview so teacher/staff will also login through app but in backed it will run web, for more details about admin webview please contact to our support https://support.qdocs.net/ .
How many parents can be added for a student? Can both the father and mother have their own accounts to manage their child in the school management system?
While adding a student in Smart School, you can add a father, a mother, and a guardian. The system will automatically generate and email the login credentials for both the student and the parents. Please note that the same credentials can be used by the father, mother, and guardian, which means there is no need for individual login accounts. These credentials will provide access to the parent user panel.
i want to buy this module….can you tell me? If I buy it…will it work for only one branch???
or i just want to buy it once and i xcan add multiple branches in it.
Because in the picyres i saw envato code on each branch adding.
kinldy guide.
In Smart School multi branch setup 1st your all branches must have install Smart School on their subdomain or domain and activated through their Smart School regular or extended purchase code that means all branches will work independently with their url (front site url, admin url, student/parent panel url) database, users (staff, student, parent). Further in main branch you should install Smart School with multi branch addon then in main branch multi branch module you can add these branches (where Smart School already installed).
In Multibranch for every branch you should have a separate license. With multibranch you can use Smart School for as many as branches you want because in Smart School Multibranch every branch is treated as individual school, however to host many schools you should keep good hosting infrastructure. If you have multiple school or want to sale Smart School and addons to your many number of clients then we strongly suggest to go with Extended license which will allow you to use items for unlimited installations.
So you can purchase one Smart School extended license and one Smart School Regular license and then install your Multibranch and other multiple branches with extended license and install Multibranch in your main home branch with regular license and then add multiple branches in your homebranch with help of Multibranch addon
In Multibranch for every branch you should have a separate license.
what does this line means? separate liscence?
Please note that for your each and every branch you should have a separate regular license purchase code so for Multibranch setup you must purchase separate Smart School regular license for each branch and Multibranch addon license for main branch. For example if you have 4 branches (1 Main branch and 3 branches) then you should purchase 4 Smart School regular license and 1 Multibranch addon license for main branch.
Otherwise you can purchase 1 extended license of Smart School and 1 regular license of Multibranch Addon for your multibranch setup so you can then able to register your unlimited branches with single extended license purchase code and install and register Multibranch addon in your main home branch and add all other branches in it .
It means if I have 5 branches I have to buy this Multi Branch Addon for 5 time ($49 X 5 = $220) Am I right? Kindly clear this last question.
Let me clarify again -
If you have 5 branches then you have to buy 1 Regular license for each branches i.e 5 branches ($59 X 5 = $295) because all branches can work individually as standalone school (Smart School) further you need only single Multi Branch Addon ($49 X 1 = $49) and install this single Multi Branch Addon in any any branch (among these 5 branches) as home branch which adds feature of Multi Branch in that Smart School branch further you can connect other 4 branches in your home branch.
This whole 5 branch setup requires -
1 Regular license for each branches i.e 5 branches ($59 X 5 = $295)
1 Regular license of Multi Branch Addon ($49 X 1 = $49)
Total $295 + $49 = $344
I have a problem. I bought a multi-branch add-on and installed it, but when I add a new branch, it asks me for details of the new database. The problem is that my hosting, Hostinger, does not accept creating two databases with the same user, and you want the same user to be for both databases. What is the solution here?
I have installed the smart school software but I did not install the multi branch module at that time. If I take the multi branch module now, will it work in this software or will I have to install the entire software again.
Will database import and file copying do my work, please tell me how to do it?
Multibranch is an addon product of Smart School, so you can install it in your Smart School anytime, and you don’t need to reinstall the entire Smart School again to add any of its addons in it.
Also in Multibranch for every branch you should have a separate license. With multibranch you can use Smart School for as many as branches you want because in Smart School Multibranch every branch is treated as individual school, however to host many schools you should keep good hosting infrastructure. If you have multiple school or want to sale Smart School and addons to your many number of clients then we strongly suggest to go with Extended license which will allow you to use items for unlimited installations.
So you can purchase one Smart School extended license and one Smart School Regular license and then install your Multibranch and other multiple branches with extended license and install Multibranch in your main home branch with regular license and then add multiple branches in your homebranch with help of Multibranch addon .

Pre Sales Questions: 1. Do you have SAAS Version/ Module for this product? 2. And do you have a module for back office accounting? Like Payments Banks (Bank Accounts where fees/income will go and where expenses will be deducted from), Transfer Money from one account to another? 3. If you dont have the SAAS version, does the license allow installation on multiple/unlimited domains? If yes is it Extended License or Regular License?
.
Please check following anwsers of your queries -
1 Smart School currently doesn’t provide SAAS feature but Smart School SAAS version is under development and It will take time to release. Please contact us by opening a General ticket at our support portal https://support.qdocs.net/ for more details about it.2 Smart School currently doesn’t support full accounting features; however, in future updates we have plans to add full accounting features, so after full accounting features are added in Smart School, hopefully your requirements will be fully filled.3 if you want to use for multiple schools then we strongly suggest you to purchase extended license of Smart School and its addon products to use in unlimited multiple schools and also to resell Smart School and its addons to other clients. Extended license allows you to use or sell Smart School for unlimited installations or to sell your unlimited clients as single end product. These extended licenses will also be used in the SAAS version in the future, so if you currently purchased an extended license of Smart School and its addon products, then you can also use these extended licenses for the SAAS version of Smart School.Hi there.
First of all, thank you for the great script and modules. They’re the best on the CodeCanyon market.
Now, my issue is as follows:
I purchased this module as part of the Plugin Multipack. However, on trying to activate and actually use the Multisite module, I am finding the instructions in your documentation extremely ambiguous and vague as to whether I need to install the multisite module on both the home-site and each member site that I intend to have on the multisite network? ...or, is it to be installed on the Home Site only and all member sites do not get any of Step 1 (database import) and Step 2 (site FTP file update) done on them?
At https://smart-school.in/article/how-to-add-the-new-branch-in-smart-school-home-branch , your documentation says, “Note: (1) When you add the new branch in your Smart School, database Username and Password must be same for the all branches including home branch database.” Well, with all due respect, this phrase is utterly confusing and not meaning anything at all, if we are being honest. I mean, could someone kindly explain here what the intended meaning of this phrase is, please? In my case, after setting up as per instructions, I faced an error, which at the moment, I do not know whether it is caused by the member site not having had Step 1 and Step 2 done on them or not.
I have tried to reinstall the module and set it up, multiple times now, which is meant to be a simple task in a single take, but I have gone round the bend with it, and it’s doing my head in, now.
I know I can get support for this matter via tickets, which I will ask for shortly, but, I am asking this here for the benefit of any of my peers out there who are using this module and may be needing to know this, too.
Please note: This is not meant to be a malicious comment in any way, but rather, it is a genuine request for clarity on what I feel may be needing further clear info on. I hope you won’t take it personal in any way. I like your script 100% and would never diss it, I promise.
I know the solution is likely to be very simple, but, I thought I would still ask.
Thank you.
Smart School Multibranch setup is a little bit complicated, and as you have mentioned and suggested, we will try to improve our documentation to install and configure Smart School Multibranch.
You have to only install Smart School Multibranch in your main/home branch, and you don’t have to install the Multibranch addon module in all of your branches. You have to only add it to your main/homebranch and then add your branches to it.
Regarding “When you add the new branch in your smart school, the database username and password must be the same for all branches, including the home branch database,” please note that in multibranch setup for all branches, including the home branch, the files used are the same, but databases are switched every time behind the scenes for every different smart school branch when you switch branches. That’s why the database username and password must be the same for all branches, including the home branch database.
However if you are facing any issue in configuring Multibranch in your Smart School then please open a support ticket about it and there send us all the details so we will set it up for you.
This is the clarity that I required, and I appreciate that a lot. I’ve already had someone from your support team assist me successfully, and the scrpit is now installed and set up on my server, and is now functioning well. I’ve test driven it on my sites, and am very pleased with the Multisite feature. Thank you for this brilliant feature.
add tranfer capability where a student or staff can be transfered from one branch to the other.
Hi, could u please explain how this works. Is this SAAS version? Or do I need to buy a new license for each school?thanks
Please note that Smart School multibranch setup is not a SAAS solution so there is no limit for student number per branch or there is no any option to add subscription package. However if you are interested in Smart School SAAS solution which is currently under development, so please contact us our support portal https://support.qdocs.net/ for SAAS solution pre-sale query, we will give you its complete details.
Yes, with multibranch you can use Smart School for as many as branches you want because in Smart School Multibranch every branch is treated as individual school, however to host many schools you should keep good hosting infrastructure. If you have multiple school or want to sale Smart School and addons to your many number of clients then we strongly suggest to go with Extended license which will allow you to use items for unlimited installations.
So you can purchase one Smart School extended license and one Smart School Regular license and then install your Multibranch and other multiple branches with extended license and install Multibranch in your main home branch with regular license and then add multiple branches in your homebranch with help of Multibranch addon .
In Smart School multi branch setup 1st your all branches must have install Smart School on their subdomain or domain and activated through their Smart School regular or extended purchase code that means all branches will work independently with their url (front site url, admin url, student/parent panel url) database, users (staff, student, parent). Further in main branch you should install Smart School with multi branch addon then in main branch multi branch module you can add these branches (where Smart School already installed).
i want to use a single domain with no separate sub domains for each school and want to run my 3 schools together using multi branch add-on. Is it possible to use it that way or i have to create subdomains for each branch first and have individual setup done first ???
You can use Smart School Multibranch as you have mentioned, for this you have to purchase 1 regular license of Multibranch addon and 3 regular licenses of Smart School. Then you can install Smart School first in your main domain (registered with 1 regular license) and after this you can make 2 sub folders on your server for this domain and install other 2 Smart School here (register with their each respective regular licenses) and then install Multibranch addon in one of your Smart School which you want to make your homebranch/main branch and add your other 2 schools as branches in this whole Multibranch setup.
so from your reply what i understand is that domain.com/school1 domain.com/school2 instead of them using domain.com and entering their login credentials to enter their school
but what we were looking for is that from domain.com itself they get to just put their credentials and enter their respective schools
In Smart School Multibranch setup all branches works independently from admin panel to their front site (with integrated dashboard in main branch using Multibranch addon) so if you were looking that from domain.com itself they get to just put their credentials and enter their respective schools is not possible because in this way front site cannot be open for branches separately.
1-CAN I buy saas smart school regular license and buy Multi Branch addon extend license to manage multiple schools and other stuff 2- can I buy saas smart school regular license and buy apps to manage multiple schools ?

Hi there, could you limit the students number per branch? and add packages?
Please note that Smart School multibranch setup is not a SAAS solution so there is no limit for student number per branch or there is no any option to add subscription package.

Hi there, I just tried your demo, but I’ve noticed that u have no control over the branches, u can only add or remove branches. Maybe I’m missing the point here, but I believe that it would be great if we can manage the branches from a super admin dashboard.
You can manage all branches data and perform any action whatever branches do individually like create student, create staff, create exam etc. from multibranch superadmin but you cannot create new branches instead of you can add already installed Smart School branches in your multibranch Smart School.
I have a main school & 3 more campuses in city. As main school 1. Main School Campus 1 2. Main School Campus 2 3. Main School Campus 3
So I need Smart School management software & multi branch addon (regular licence) one time?
For Multibranch setup you must purchase separate Smart School regular license for each branch and Multibranch addon license for main branch. For example if you have 4 branches (1 Main branch and 3 branches) then you should purchase 4 Smart School regular license and 1 Multibranch addon license for main branch.
I have a school with multiple branch and I want to use smart school for multiple branch, so my question is that whether I have to purchase separate smart school for each branch or it will be only one smart school and one addon installed in the same domain.
Yes, for Multibranch setup you must purchase separate Smart School regular license for each branch and Multibranch addon license for main branch. For example if you have 4 branches (1 Main branch and 3 branches) then you should purchase 4 Smart School regular license and 1 Multibranch addon license for main branch.
And If I have to use both the Smart School plugin in same domain so what will be in that case, I mean Main Branch and branches on same domain. And If I have to purchase individual Smart School for each branch as well as for the main branch then what will be the benefit of Multi Branch add ons for the main branch.
Multibranch addon provides you integrated access of your all branches data under your main branch with many useful reports of your combined all branches which cannot be available without Multibranch addon.
Hello sir We want to purchase extended license, is it inclusive add-on or we purchase separately.
Smart School Extended license does not include Multibranch addon or any other addon like Smart School Online Course, Smart School Zoom Live Class, Smart School Gmeet Live Class, Smart School Behaviour Records , Smart School Android App, Smart School Two Factor Authentication, Smart School CBSE Examination, so you should purchase each addon separately. If you are interested in extended license then we can give you good discount on it, so please contact to our support portal https://support.qdocs.net/ by opening pre-sale ticket to know more about extended license discount.
Hi this addon will works 6.4.1
Help me understand, Smart School is a single school product that you install in one school and all its branches, or it’s a ‘multi school’ whereby it can be installed in many different/separate schools?
Smart School is a single school product and to add Multibranch ability you should purchase and install Multibranch addon in Smart School. In Smart School multi branch setup 1st your all branches must have install Smart School on their subdomain or domain and activated through their Smart School regular or extended purchase code that means all branches will work independently with their url (front site url, admin url, student/parent panel url) database, users (staff, student, parent). Further in main branch you should install Smart School with multi branch addon then in main branch multi branch module you can add these branches (where Smart School already installed). Please check these https://smart-school.in/category/multi-branch articles for more details.
