2.0 is here!
The current release is 2.0.0.6 (a release candidate), so let's talk about what's new, and what's about to arrive.
What is new in 2.0.0.6
- User-customizable splash pages: Users can upload an image, and add 2 blocks of basic html text to your splash page
- Link Cloaking: Users can now use a link on your site to show any approved ad.
- Our new, in-house Content Management System, called "skeleton"
- Total control over the system menu - move things around, rename them, add pages, whatever you want!
- Control includes control over page title, header description, and even keywords
- Editable sections on every member-facing page of the site
- Page-by-page control of edges and layout, as well as user access (so you can have an 'upgraders only' section)
- Over 35 automated edge objects, and now UNLIMITED custom edge objects
- Validation on every field of every form, to help keep data secure.
- Encryption for sensitive data and settings
- Optional announcer bars above the menu (can be page-by-page or site wide)
- Built in Backup and Restore mechanisms
- Built in direct access to your database
- Up to 100 member levels, with site pages that can only be viewed by certain levels
- 2 Harmonized 'Multi Color Table' layouts gives you FULL control over all site colors used
- Manual surf system now supports images, for better anti-cheat performance
- VS-TEN interface is now optional in both directions (i.e.: opt-outs will no longer SEE vs-ten pages in rotation
- Support for account-based email (i.e.: you don't have to use 'nobody' anymore), so your system can work more securely than ever
- More historical records, including tracking when members 'give' credits, and to whom
- More powerful referral system, keeps referral information locally, not just dependant on a 'cookie'
- Larger, easier to read characters in the 'human code' option, and no more reliance on GDI fonts
- New NET-SV allows you to show a full 'track' of your exchange in a rotator, with appropriate credit tracking
- Revamped commission and referral system, so everything is editable in the back-end
- Removal of the word 'auto' site-wide (now called 'regular surf'), to appease certain payment processors
- Improved 'offer' display page, works more universally in browsers
- Option to store a copy of an outgoing statistical email directly to the news section
- Extra description space added to all purchaseable items
- New statistics option to see WHERE your incoming referral traffic is coming FROM (what site)
- Enhanced 'one time offers' systems, now they also support subscriptions and multi-month payment plans
As we neared completion, we realized the power of what we put together, so we re-built VS-TrEx.com with a custom cut of the same base software!
