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.

Released: 4/14/2009 2:00:05 PM

The My-Software screen has been changed to show a traffic-light system which shows a red cross for any modules which need upgrading, and a green tick for any modules which are up to date, which allows you to see at a glance if you need upgrades. NOTE: Please check your my-software screen regularly to see if upgrades are available.

Released: 4/14/2009 2:00:00 PM

Upgrade protection has been added which you can optionally purchase whenever you buy new modules, domains, or upgrade. It will give you permanent cover against the cost of future software upgrades for your module/domain. This is a major change to the bigyellowkey.com system; please let us know if you have any problems/questions.

Released: 2/23/2009 11:05:00 PM

**Notice: There was a temporary glitch with the bigyellowkey.com checkout process today; we have now investigated/fixed the problem. Apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Released: 12/1/2008 12:00:01 AM

VAT Reduced to 15% - Following the recent government announcements in the UK, VAT (only payable on orders placed from the EU) has now been reduced from 17.5% to 15% with immediate effect from Midnight 1st December 2008, and will remain at 15% for 13 months. All of the bigyellowkey.com ordering and payment processes have been changed to accommodate this. Customers outside the EU do not pay any VAT. Customers from the UK always pay VAT. Customers from the EU (but outside the UK) who have a valid VAT/Tax number do not pay vat. Customers from the EU (but outside the UK) who do not have a valid VAT/Tax number pay VAT.

Released: 11/10/2008 1:05:00 PM

FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions) section has been added. Click on the Help link at the top of the page, or click on the FAQs link on the right panel help section.

Released: 10/17/2008 5:05:00 PM

What's New Link added to the top of the BYK screens. This allows you to see all new software released, and all new versions (upgrades) released, in descending date order. Want to know what's been happening on the software front? Just click on "what's new?" at the top of the screen.

Released: 9/2/2008 6:00:00 PM

New Software Vendor! SQLInjectionScanner.com (a sister company of BigYellowZone) is now using the BigYellowKey.com site to distribute anti-hacker tools and other products/services which site owners will find very useful. Visit SQLInjectionScanner.com for more info. If you previously bought the BYZ "hack checker", then check your my-software screen to grab the latest update; it has now become the "SQLInjectionScanner.com Scanner" and the new version has lots more features. A data cleaner is also available, as are check/fix services.

Released: 11/22/2007 4:29:00 PM

Mail-Lists (with discounts) added. Your profile now has a mail-list option at the bottom where you can optionally sign up to mail-lists. Some mail-lists will give you discounts (these discounts will be explained on the mail-list description). Default will always be "no sign up" for any customer, either historic or new customers. You will need to explicitly tick the sign-up box and save the changes to get added to the mail-list (and receive the relevant discount).

Released: 10/16/2007 11:57:00 AM

Live/Archived radio buttons fixed - the live/archived/all radio buttons at the top of your "My Software" (and other "My") screens have now been fixed. They were previously one-step behind what you pressed, but are now correct and automatically refresh as soon as you click on one of the radio buttons.

Released: 10/16/2007 11:56:00 AM

localhost assigned for free - you can now add localhost to any of your licenses during purchases/upgrades, or via your "My Domains" tab, and it will automatically give you the localhost key for free.

Released: 10/16/2007 11:55:00 AM

New version of byk released - if your customer control panel shows you the login screen, then please login again. Once logged in you will no longer need to login again.

Released: 10/11/2007 12:30:00 PM

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.

Released: 10/8/2007 11:50:00 PM

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.

Released: 9/28/2007 8:15:00 AM

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. This means that you can continue freely shopping/browsing on bigyellowzone.com without having to jump between byk/byz sites for each item. Note that for upgrades you should always use bigyellowkey.com for browsing/purchasing, and not bigyellowzone.com.

Released: 9/25/2007 11:45:00 PM

Version History Displays - We've added a link on the product-codes on your "My Software" screen which will popup a printer-friendly page that displays all the product details and the full version history (ie all the release notes of all versions) so that you can now see if you want/need to upgrade specific modules.

Released: 9/23/2007 2:05:00 PM

We're Live ! - BigYellowKey.com has now become a live system. There might be some teething questions/problems following its release, so if you have any questions/problems then please do let us know.

Click here for demo - our demo area is loaded with most of the SEO modules, BYZ110 for static content pages, BYZ163 for static product-detail pages, BYZ164 for static category pages, BYZ116 for enhanced searching/paging, BYZ121 for related-categories on search results, BYZ158 for the browsable sitemap, BYZ161 for predictive search on the search mini-form at the top.

This handy addon has 2 main uses:

1) Creating content files
Use the "Content File Manager" (a suite of admin screens provided with the addon) to automatically set filenames on your content records and then create all those files in bulk.

2) Calling your contents within existing pages/panels
If you want to show a given content record inside an existing page/panel, then this will allow you to do so. You simply call the new function with the "type" as your argument, and it'll show the content record. There are various functions for this; one will show the entire record/format within your panel, and the other will just show the content's body (and there's another one for the title-only too).

Technical/Developer Information:
Redirection from your dynamic (shopcontent.asp) urls to the corresponding static (eg "about-us.asp") files is included within the module; you can configure it to do "301" redirects, "Canonical" header tags, or no redirection. 301 and canonical will allow search engines to not penalise duplicate urls and will keep your ranking.

The "Content File Manager" has 5 screens/tools:

1) Auto-Set FileName data
Using an existing column as your base (such as message, or messagetype) you can set all your content record filename values to an automatically-translated valid filename (eg turn "About Us" as a message (header) value to "about-us.asp" in your filename field) - This can be done in a single shot without editing the individual records. This also has a test-run facility so that you can see the old/new file status without updating the data.

2) Bulk-Edit FileName data
Using a multi-record screen (one row per content record), you can, if you want, edit all your filename values in one simple screen.

3) Validate FileName data
Displays a summary of any content records which have invalid (or duplicate) filename values.

4) Create Folders
Only relevant if you have BYZ027 installed. This will go through your content filename data and create any missing folders on your server.

5) Create Files
Press a button to generate all your static content files in one go. This also has a test-run facility so that you can see the old/new file status without creating the new files.
