Released: 8/25/2009 2:05:00 PM
We've decided to extend the discounting of the BYZ subscription services, where the initial fee element is reduced by the cost of BYZ Addons that you've purchased in the last 12 months. This relates to the subscription services of BYZ147, BYZ148, and BYZ149. The reduced price will be shown when you get to the confirm-order page (ie after you have entered your domain).

Released: 4/25/2009 10:45:00 AM
BYZ Subscription Services added! You can now subscribe to get addons, or hosting, or both. For people who have bought BYZ addons in the last 12 months, you can trade-in what you've spent on addons in the last 12 months against a reduction in the relevant initial-fee element of the subscription service. This trade-in offer will only last for the next 30 days, so trade-in now! This trade-in relates to BYZ147, BYZ148, and BYZ149. See "subscription services" in the right-panel above or click on "services list" at the top. You'll get/see your discounted price of the subscription when you get to the final "confirm order" page (ie before you make payment, but after you've chosen your domain(s)). For example, if you've spent £120 on BYZ addons in the last 12 months, then you can get BYZ147 for just £37. If you've spent £200 on BYZ addons in the last 12 months then BYZ147 would only cost you £7. The prices concerned relate to prices excluding vat/tax and do not include installation cover/services. PLEASE NOTE: If you already have BYZ072/02 (Installation Cover) then that installation cover becomes invalid after you subscribe.

Upgrade fix applied. There was a problem when upgrading Backfilled BYZ licences, this has now been fixed, but if you upgraded on BYK prior to this news item being added then go into your "My Software" screen, and check if you have multiple versions of a given product for a given domain; if you have multiple versions then press the archive link on the old versions, then go to your license keys page and create a new license key file, then download that key file and upload it to your site.

Sub-Modules added to your software lists - We have now ensured that all of your sub-modules are now listed for your main modules on your software screen. This means that you can now upgrade/download either the main module, and/or the sub-modules. Our upgrading and purchasing procedures use "intelligent" bundling, whereby if you've upgraded/bought all the corresponding sub-modules then you'd automatically also be assigned all appropriate parent bundls, and if you buy/upgrade a bundle then it will automatically assign access to all the sub-modules as well. Checkout your "My Software" screen, as it may now be showing you additional/new sub-modules.

BYZ Interface Improved - We have now changed our sister site (bigyellowzone.com) so that you will only get directed to bigyellowkey when you checkout, and not each time you add an item to your cart.

Note that for upgrades you should always use bigyellowkey.com for browsing/purchasing, and not bigyellowzone.com.

Link and Source Corrector for VP-ASP - BYZ165
Latest version:01/19-JUL-2010
From vendor:Big Yellow Zone
Price:£50.00
add to cart


Compatibility, Bundling, and Status Notes:
Compatible with VPASP V4.5 to V7
Before installing, you must have installed:
BYZ038
BYZ036

This product includes:
BYZ038
BYZ036

This will turn relative links/sources in your html data into virtual sources for you so they'll work from any folder.

Why you might need to do this:
  • Your HTML-Editor in Admin is impossible to use - In vpasp v7, admin is in a different folder to the customer side of vpasp. This means that if you've upgraded from an older version of vpasp then your html-editor in the edit-product/edit-content pages won't be displaying your images/links which makes it virtually impossible to edit your html info because your images/links are relative to the CUSTOMER side of vpasp, not the ADMIN side (this is only relevant if you've used relative paths for your sources/links instead of virtual or full browsing paths).
  • Your static pages show broken html - In all versions of vpasp, if you're trying to display vpasp data in folders outside the main vpasp folder (eg for our static generated pages) then the links/images within your html data won't be showing-up or will link to the wrong place (this is only relevant if you've used relative paths for your sources/links instead of virtual or full browsing paths).


For example, you have some image sources (or links) inside your products.extendeddesc field which point to a path which is relative to your vpasp folder, so it won't load the link/image correctly if you output that extendeddesc value on a page which is outside your main vpasp folder.

So, you want to change all those to point to a virtual path so that you can show the extendeddesc in any folder.

This will deconstruct your html data, work out where all the embedded links/sources are within it, work out whether it's valid for multiple-folders, and if it's not valid then it'll make it valid.

On the parameter screen you enter the name of the table and column which holds your html data that you want to correct (eg products and extendeddesc).

Then you check your "virtual path of vpasp" value in the parameter screen is correct (eg "/shop/").

Then you execute a test run to see the old/proposed-new values.

Then you execute a live run to update the data.

It allows you to do a test run so that you can see your potential changes before they get applied so that you can double-check your settings before you apply the change.

Sample Screen Snapshots:
(all of the following snapshots are part of a single screen, but we've split-up the images so you can see what each section of the screen is for and how it flows - click on a link below to see the screenshot)
1. Set your Criteria (ie tell it which table/column to update)
2. Do a Test run to see which records are effected and how they're effected
3. Do a live run to update/correct your data
4. All clear - you can run/rerun anytime you like to check your data's still correct

Customer Quote:
The link/source correction module saved us many hours of tedious work.
We had inserted a lot of "relative links" in our product descriptions and extended descriptions.
As we wanted to move our product pages to a different level in our site we feared it would take many hours for us to manually make these changes.
We figured the chances of us finding and fixing all the links correctly the first time around were slim to none.
It turns out we discovered we had about 420 "invalid" links/sources in our cdescriptions, and about 3,500 in our extendeddescs.
The BYZ link/source correction module fixed them in a matter of moments.
Not an error to be found.
This was a true time saver.
Thanks BYZ.
Now I have time to "work" on my golf game.

Technical/Developer Information:
  • Color-Coded/Highlighted URLs - The old/new "url" values in the results section are color-coded so that you can easily pick them out from the rest of the html and easily see which ones will be changed (green means it's already valid and won't be changed, red means it's invalid and would get corrected, black/gray means it's not a link and is part of the rest of the html; see the sample snapshots for an example).
  • Any table/column can be checked/corrected - For example you can apply corrections to your content html data too; all you need to do is tell the parameter screen which table/column names you want to deal with.
  • Checks all types - it doesn't matter whether you've got an embedded image source, or a flash file source, or an href link, or virtually any other "source" or "link"; it'll find them all within your overall html, and it'll correct them when relevant.
  • Changeable "correction" logic - there's a central file, easily tweaked, which allows you to change the logic that works out whether a given url is valid or not, and what the corresponding "corrected" url should be. For example you might want to change urls which start with "/shop/" to start with "/newshop/" instead. You wouldn't normally change this file/function (because it already takes into account your virtual path parameter), but you've got the flexibility there if you need it.
  • It leaves "valid" urls/links alone - if you've got links to mailto, javascript, #'s, virtual paths, or full browsing urls, then it won't try to change the url/link - it'll only alter what it sees as a relative url/link (although you can alter this logic as per the point above if you want/need to).
  • Easy to Install - one of the easiest addons we've got as far as installation goes; once you've got byz038/036 in place, you just check the config file, upload the files, add it to the menu, grant-out access-rights, and then run it (detailed installation notes for all vpasp versions are provided with the addon).
