Geeklog Forums

Version 0.2
-----------
* Added support for Geeklog plugin "tags". [Samuel Ken]
* Added support for the "advanced editor": FCKEditor [Gary Moncrieff]
* Added support for categories.  This is implemented similarly to the Geeklog
  lists plugin.
* Added ability to selectively order product list
* Added support for currencies beyond US Dollars. The plugin now supports any
  one currency that is also supported by Paypal.
* Added support for encrypted postbacks to paypal for IPN verification,
  previously only unencrypted verification was supported.
* Added ability to upgrade database from the install.php script in the /admin
  directory.  Included upgrade instructions in docs/upgrade.
* Added some additional Geeklog plugin API functions to functions.inc for
  a tighter integration of functionality.
* The paypal plugin now supports purchases of quantity > 1.  For digital items,
  purchasing more than one item doesn't get you anything more than a single
  purchase by default.  This behavior can be overridden in IPN.class.php.
* handleFailure function added to BaseIPN.class.php which is called in the case
  of a failure during processing.  This can be overridden in IPN.class.php.
* Created a function to generate button html (paypal_genButton), no interface
  as of yet
* Marked required fields on product edit form and now check that all required
  fields are completed.
* Removed 'COMMENT' fields from DDL to support older versions of MySQL
* Fully support Anonymous purchases
* Added option to send out email upon completed purchase, including option to
  attach purchased "downloads"
* Made IPN.class.php extend BaseIPN.class.php so users could customize
  IPN.class.php without worrying about merging upgrades.
* Required fields are now marked as such.  SQL errors will no longer results
  when required fields are missing.
* When pictures are specified, will use the CSS style display: none to hide
  image tags on user pages.
* Added Google like pagination to the products page
