After a lengthy and useful beta period, it's time to release the Gold version of DragonByte Shop v6.1.0

Version 6.1.0 represents a complete re-write of the product, making it more deeply integrated with XenForo 2.1, improving performance, and making bugfixes easier.

Before we delve into the changes, let's get some things out of the way:

• This version requires XenForo 2.1.0. It will not install on XenForo 2.0.x.
  
  
• The "User shops" feature and surrounding item management in the front-end has been permanently removed from the add-on and will not be making a return.
  
  
• If you are still running DragonByte Credits v5.0.x, you need to disable both DragonByte Credits and DragonByte Shop before upgrading both of them to the latest versions. Not doing so will cause your site to crash until you edit the config file to disable addons from running.
  
  
• It is recommended you upgrade both this and DragonByte Credits via the new "Install from archive" feature in XenForo 2.1.0.
  
  
• Please see this post: #213 for further upgrade notes.

With that out of the way, on to the changes!


This version adds a new alert for victims of a Steal attempt, when the forum is not also running DragonByte Credits. No more vanishing currency!

In order to improve the functionality of the "Expiry date" feature for items, the cron job that expires items now runs every 10 minutes rather than every 24 hours.

Various reported bugs with the various "style" items have also been resolved.
