Last weekend we changed our subscription and access management as well as our download area. In the course of these changes our side was unfortunately not always available - we apologize for that!
The conversion of the subscription and access system from Ambrasubscriptions to Akeebasubs has brought some new features and capabilities. Probably the most important for my customers are likely to be an automated billing, the possibility of discounts for new customers and for existing customers that are renewing their membership. A discount offer is already planned and will start soon. Existing customers are obtaining now a 20% discount when they renew their active membership .
In the past some members had problems to find our download area of the paid subscriptions. I understand that this is some kind of annoying, but with the old subscription system it was not feasible otherwise. It was a thorn in the side also for and that's why the downloads of our chargeable services are now running over the normal download area and this is the well-known download extension DOCman. In this context, we´ve done some restructurings in this area the free downloads are now parent category for all our free downloads and should now stand out clearly from the kommerziellen Angeboten.
We also have expanded our range of commercial language files for Joomla extensions. We charge only for German language files for commercial Joomla extensions. Language files for free Joomla extensions remain still free.
There are still some smaller things to do on the site, but I think this will be done this week.
