Hi everyone,
DragonByte Classifieds v1.0.0 Beta 14 contains quite a few bug fixes and tweaks based around the fantastic input and feedback we've had from everyone. Some changes include Improved formatting of emails sent by Classifieds (no more HTML issues and better layout to make use of the plain text format), the buy/bid button is only displayed if there are valid Payment Processors associated with the listing, and there is now an option to set minimum pricing for a new listing.
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.
