Hi everyone,
DragonByte Classifieds v1.0.0 Beta 13 arrives with bug fixes and two new features. The key feature is the introduction of a new section of the Admin Control Panel that allows for customization of the Submit Listing form including the ability to set default data when the form doesn't provide that data. This has then allowed us to create a form using the Forum Blocks Manager that can be customized to allow users to submit new listings directly.
This new simple form does not allow for Attachments to be added during the initial submission of the listing (though the user can edit the form if they want to add an image later) and is tied to a particular type of listing (for example, Auction). It is possible to create multiple blocks each. We will be expanding this feature over the coming weeks to allow for CMS blocks as well.
Remember, we have installed the latest Beta of Classifieds 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. We are working hard to keep on top of all the bug reports and feature requests.
Bug Fixes And Issue Fixes:
Fixed: MySQL error when leaving feedback (in Beta 12 PL 1)
Fixed: Count of comments not showing correctly when viewing Feedback in the Feedback Manager in the Admin Control Panel
Fixed: An issue when trying to save a postage in the Admin Control Panel without a valid username, now the system makes it global
Fixed: Missing postage data when creating a listing
Additions To Product From Feature Requests Or Just Something Else Added:
Feature: Forum Block form created to allow users to submit a listing quickly
Feature: Form control in the Admin Control Panel area allows a large amount of customization on what is displayed in forms to the user
Things Still In The Works:
Expanding the Payment Processors (We welcome suggestions on options you feel are important to your users)
Fixing the Rotator and scrolling system in the advert boxes
Adding more Advert locations
Many other tweaks and improvements
