The latest version of pollXT 1.24 is finally close to be a release candidate. It's available for download ...

The changelog lists the latest changes...

Release candidate 2 (1.00.07) of the "Pay to Download" component is available. It fixes some non-critical bugs and improves error handling.

Pay to Xownload XT" simply does what it says: Users have to pay to download certain files. Great, if you e.g. want to sell some eBooks. "Pay to Download XT" is a simple component that needs only minimum configuration.

See it in action here.

For various reasons it took a little bit longer than planned to release the next beta of pollXT, however now it's available for download .

Main changes are:

# fixed several special character issues (title, header text, select-box, email)
! Adjusted "Hide options" setting... it now really hides options (not the poll)
# fixed issue with different URLs (www.domain.com vs. domain.com)
+ added "if voting is not allowed" parameter
# fixed separator
# fixed PHP4 issue (could not create options)
# fixed minor issue with details display
# fixed not-ajaxed details button
# added workaround for several templates
# added workaround to eliminate huge gaps between options in IE

I'm pretty sure there are some more fixes, that I just forgot to note.

As always I'd be glad to get feedback in the forum.

Please be aware that this is still beta. However I think it's more or less stable now. There might still be some issues with PHP4, although I did some tests with PHP4 this time.   

Pay to download 1.00.06 is the first official relase candidate of P2D XT.

Main changes to previous versions are:

• Now tested and validated with PHP4
• CURL support for servers that don't allow fsockopen
• added simple support for large files
  
• fixed several minor bugs e.g. in the transaction overview

The manual is of course also updated.

And again a new version of Pay to Download. The latest version adds a transaction overview to the admin menu and fixes a minor bug with the plugin.

The manual now contains a quick introduction on setting up a test account on paypal and using it with P2D XT.

I just released a new version of P2D XT. It fixes a minor bug and improves Payment Data Transfer Integration.

The new version now also supports a plugin to include P2D into content items. 

To upgrade to the latest version please uninstall the old version and re-install the new version (you won't loose any data when uninstalling)

Additionally I updated the manual .
