Beta 4 Released

Shopp 1.0b4 has been released. It’s loaded with big and little fixes. One of the nicest additions is that category variation templates are now implemented. If you’re lucky enough to be a beta tester, just go to your Shopp > Settings > Update page and click the “Check for Updates” button to start the auto-update process.

Thanks for the great feedback. This is a really nice release. I want to give a shout out to the biggest help for this release:

  • Klaus
    Big kudos to Klaus - actually, he’s been the most helpful tester since the earliest alpha releases. Seriously you rule!
  • slow
  • sevenstars
  • Dan

All of you really helped immensely and I sincerely appreciate your time and efforts in making Shopp better. Thanks for your patience and keep the feedback coming. Positive or negative, it all helps - even if I don’t always agree with it!

For those of you not in the beta yet, if you’ve got your application in, I’m reviewing apps and sending out the next round of invites. Watch your e-mail!

The documentation wiki is going strong and there is already a ton of helpful information available for installation, setup, common problems and their solutions. There is still a lot of unfinished documentation, and you can help in a couple of ways. First, you can let me know what documentation you’d like to have sooner rather than later so I know how to prioritize what is worth the time to tackle now. Second, you can always login to the wiki and start writing documentation on your own (or review and make changes to the documentation that’s already there). You can use the same login you use for posting comments or forums posts to login to the wiki. If you’ve only posted on the forum, you may need to login to the Shopp website edit and save your profile in WordPress to make sure you can login to the wiki.
