DragonByte Classifieds v1.0.0 Beta 10 (Open Beta) Released!

Mokonzi

Former Developer
Hi everyone,

DragonByte Classifieds v1.0.0 Beta 10 lands on your doorstep with a dozen bug fixes, some changes and two new features. The changes continue to improve formatting and layout in some areas of the front-end of Classifieds and provide facilities to examine and find listings and offers within the Admin Control Panel.

This update also changes the name of the file that we use in the Admin Control Panel area to dbtclassifieds.php to prevent any conflicts in the future. For those upgrading, make sure the file /admincp/classifieds.php is deleted or renamed before being overwritten.

Finally, we have installed the latest Beta here on DBTech. We have created some 'fake' items and have left PayPal in Sandbox mode so that no real money changes hands allowing anyone to test how the system works. We look forward to your feedback. Go here for the latest listings: View Listings - DragonByte Tech | vBulletin Mods & Addons.

To create a PayPal Sandbox account you need to head over to this page: https://developer.paypal.com/webapps/developer/applications/accounts. Once you login with your regular PayPal account you can then create a sandbox testing account to use to 'purchase' the items on our Classifieds.

You can purchase DragonByte Classifieds here.

A special thanks to everyone who has provided feedback during the past week, especially the ever hard working beta testers.
