Hi everyone,
DragonByte Classifieds v1.0.0 Beta 9 arrives with over a dozen bug fixes, some changes and some new features. The changes have helped improve formatting and layout in some areas of the frontend of Classifieds as well as the feedback area of the Admin Control Panel.
Additionally we have worked on allowing for more customization of the blocks that display various listing combinations. The Watched Items and Classifieds Ads can now be placed in three locations, at the top of the main listings view page, at the bottom, or in the sidebar beneath the recent searches block. We have also introduced a new Featured Items block that displays the first 'x' Featured Listings, where 'x' can be customizable in the Admin Control Panel (as can the Watched Items and Classifieds Ads blocks). We have also added a new Sellers Other Items block on the View Listing page for a specific listing, which can also have the amount it displays customized.
Also, KristerSwe has provided us some more nice icons, this time ones that can be used for Feedback Groups, very similar in idea to the eBay stars used to help users get a feel for the trustworthiness of a seller or buyer.
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.
