[DBTech] DragonByte Shop 7.5.0

Update highlights​

This version brings a slew of bug fixes thanks to automated testing, as well as adding the ability for item ratings to be left anonymously.

Massive improvements have also been made to item discussion threads, by giving it its own item type and wrapper similar to how product release threads are shown @ my website.

Please see the full changelog below for information about the bugs fixed in this version.

Update highlights​

This version features an optional new navbar entry for the shopping cart, mirroring the design & functionality of the DragonByte eCommerce, meant as an alternative to using the "Cart" widget. The widget gets hidden behind the "Categories" menu on mobile devices, so using the navbar cart might be a better idea for you.

Complete Change Log​

Feature: Navbar cart with item count, cart preview, order total and remove from cart, as an alternative to the Cart widget
Change: The Purchase list in the AdminCP now has extra styling if the purchase is deactivated
Fix: Ensure sort order/link filtering is carried over when navigating pages

This add-on has been hotfixed to address an issue affecting all front-end pages while this add-on is enabled. This issue was caused by additional security measures introduced in XenForo 2.3.13.

The latest version has been patched, and can be downloaded at no additional cost. If you are running an older version and you are unable to upgrade for whatever reason, please let me know the exact version you are running and I will apply the hotfix accordingly.

Update highlights​

This version adds the ability for users to see their own purchased lottery tickets and whether they won any prizes when clicking the lottery draw history. Winning numbers are highlighted with accent coloured backgrounds.

Complete Change Log​

Feature: Display purchased lottery tickets in the draw history

Update highlights​

This version fixes an issue that exploded the number of queries ran across the site, due to the new "Username Icon" feature.

Complete Change Log​

Fix: Reduce the number of queries across the site

Update highlights​

This version is a minor bugfix that corrects the save/delete cleanup actions for Bookmarks. Previously, fully deleting an item would not delete users' bookmarks.

Complete Change Log​

Fix: Correctly run Bookmark save/delete actions for Items

Update highlights​

This version adds a few new features requested by the community, as well as performance improvements aimed mostly at forums with a very large node count.

You can now sell a new item type; "User Icon", which adds a pre-defined icon in front of the buyer's user name in most locations across the site. There is no "user customisable" version of this item because of the moderation nightmare this would introduce.

The "Thread Highlight" (and its Pre-Defined variant) can now optionally use an inset glow rather than just a background colour, making it look up to 200% more modern. This option is enabled by default for existing purchases for the user customisable item.

Furthermore, it is now possible to sort the store by price.

There is now a max length of 250 characters for the message someone can leave when gifting an item to another player. This is because the gift message is cached along with the rest of the purchase data, and too large of a gift message would lead to issues. This change is not retroactive.

Last but by no means least, any given user's active and viewable purchases are now more aggressively cached. This means that pages where the same user appears multiple times, or pages where a lot of permission checks occur, the system only has to fetch & filter the purchases once, after which the information will be returned from the cache. While this mostly affects forums with large node lists, it will reduce processing time for every site.

Complete Change Log​

Feature: New item type: User Icon (Pre-Defined)
Feature: (Optional) Inset glow effect on Thread Highlight and Thread Highlight (Pre-Defined) item types
Feature: New sort option: Price
Change: Rework CSS classes for better override support
Change: Limit Purchase messages to 250 characters to avoid performance issues
Change: Improve performance by more aggressively caching active and visible purchases
Fix: Additional cache generator fixes

Update highlights​

This version fixes a couple regressions from v7.2.3 caused by the new caching system implemented in that version, primarily centered around stock updates.

Complete Change Log​

Fix: Fix cache generator potentially causing edits appearing as if they did not save
Fix: Fix issues with stock updates not being reflected in the cache

Update highlights​

This version fixes an issue that could cause the site to stop functioning after upgrading to XenForo 2.3.9 or newer.

Ideally, you should install this update prior to updating XenForo. If you have already updated and your site is inaccessible, you can download the update and extract the zip file, then upload the new files to your site.

Alternatively, you can disable DB Shop, then update XenForo, then update DB Shop.

Complete Change Log​

Fix: Fix errors caused by the new security restrictions in XenForo 2.3.9

Update highlights​

This version updates the various log pages to allow search criteria to persist when clicking back into the search form.

Furthermore, a server error when copying items has been resolved. This was a regression caused by the recent updates to the notification fields.

Complete Change Log​

Change: Criteria are now carried over when clicking the Search button in log pages
Fix: Fix server error when copying items
