DAP v3.8 & LL v1.3 (Beta)

Share this

Here’s the final list of what’s in DAP v3.8 & LiveLinks v1.3.

* [NEW] Product Chaining
* [NEW] (New Config Field) SECRET_KEY: Secret Authorization Key used when interfacing with external systems
* [NEW] (New Config Field) SHOW_COMMENTS: Show comments on protected WP content
* [NEW] (New Config Field) DEFAULT_AFF_LANDING: URL of default landing page for Affiliate links (when not redirected). Default: / (home page)
* [NEW] (New Config Field) DEFAULT_PASSWORD: This gives you the ability to generate a “Default Password” – like ‘dap’ – for all new users. Which means, if you have say, integrated Aweber or an external email system with DAP, now you can send out the welcome email along with the password (simply use the same default password into your Aweber email as the one you have set in DAP Config, that’s it!). You could even bring the user back to your login page and say something to the effect of “Please use the email address you just used during purchase, and the password ‘changethis’ to log into your account right away! Just be sure to change your password soon after logging in.”
* [NEW] DAP will no longer allow deliberate or unintentional deletion of admin users. You must change their account type to “User” (from “Admin”) first before you can delete the user.
* [NEW] 1-Click Delete-All functionality to delete all protected content in a Product
* [NEW] Warning presented and asks for confirmation when you click on “Delete Product” (even though DAP already won’t delete a product if there is even 1 user associated with a Product. Just another confirmation in addition to what was there before).
* [NEW] Display of User Links (sorting order): Within a given day, if you have multiple links dripping (say, on day 1 itself you have multiple links), then they will show up on the “User links” page in the exact same order in which it shows up on the Products page.
* [NEW] DAP Logs displays only 1000 rows now
* [NEW] Content URL field length increased from 100 to 200
* [NEW] Affiliate Info Page now fits well even into narrow themes.
* [NEW] Logout link in DAP Dashboard (under “My Account”)
* [NEW] When you add a blog post/page to a Product, it retrieves the post/page’s title, and the page title is what your member will see in the “Links” section of a product.
* [NEW] Product Specific Logged-in URL
* [NEW] dap/inc/content/userfacing.css – can be customized by renaming it customuserfacing.css
* [NEW] Ability to completely customize CSS of User-facing pages – like affiliate links, user links and user profile
* [NEW] List of Affiliate Link Referrers are now in a scrollable div so as to save real estate
* [NEW] WP Widget to show Products Purchased on sidebar
* [NEW] New merge code %%PRODUCT_DETAILS_<id>%% to show Product-specific Links on a page
* [FIXED] LiveLinks: Last name merge tag wasn’t functional.
* [FIXED] Removed “http://” from second link in affiliate “redirection” link

This is a closed beta for now – which means, we’re not making it available to everyone just yet.
