What's new in 1.03.01


Base Module:

  • Login: Modified the loading code for popup blockers. You will now be warned if there is a problem starting the software because it is being blocked by other software such as Norton Antivirus.

  • Template Design: Added the ability to choose which template is used for imageview, productview and default for your pages. They can each have individual templates, or use the same template. If you remove any of the defaults they will revert to the original default template, so be sure you assign one. You can easily tell which template is a default, as there will be a small icon beside the template.
