Hey all,
After a successful Beta period, we're releasing DragonByte Reviews v1.0.0 Gold, available immediately to both Pro customers and Lite users. This release fixes a couple of outstanding bugs, and adds an import feature.
With this release you can now import reviews created in "[chris] Reviews". The categories, custom fields and questions will be imported as well. As this is the first version of the importer, we suggest you try it on a development server first.
The v1.0.0 release includes the following:
Added: Lite version
Added: [chris] Reviews Importer
Fixed: tag side block
Fixed: Rich Snippet Rating
The complete list is as follows
