Major Update! Unity 1.0.

In line with  other steps of getting our sites packed into one, we are updating Boonex Unity, now incorporating Expertzzz.com functionality and adding more.

1.0.0

Unity is a sophisticated system and it's gaining traction. For convenience sake we'll now be tracking update versions and the latest is now known as Unity 1.0.0.

What's New

You'd better try it out. You'll see a lot of big and small changes here. Most notably, you will now see Extensions, Jobs and Ads here, which means that we decided to launch an alternative to Expertzzz.com here. We just took all our experience, your comments/complaints/suggestions and built a new system with the primary focus on security and quality.

 

Ok, here's how we're going to do that... Expert status is no longer as simple as falling down - you have to earn it and prove that you are an Expert. This you can do by submitting one free Extension for review by our admins. yes, that would mean that you have to provide at least one free Extension to maintain your Expert status. A little bit of free stuff the the community and you have your business opportunity to sell your other works here.

 

Next, every single Extension submitted will have to pass an approval process, which will involve both moderators and admins.

 

And, finally, every active Extension has to maintain a high rating to stay available for purchase. That rating will include both the product quality and support quality factors.

Memberships

Check out the new membership levels. It should be pretty self explanatory, but your questions are still welcome.

 

All in all, you may see that we're trying to involve more community participation in making this system secure and free of spam/fraud/leeching.

 

Expertzzz.com

...will stay on. Yes, we're not shutting it down, for it is full of great data, valuable products and healthy activity. Moreover, we have some plans on how to improve it. The main difference, however, is that Expertzzz will now go it's own, independent way and will be more open, which may be both bad and good, depending on how smart and careful you are.

 

Accounts from Expertzzz and Contributor statuses are now merged with the new Unity.

 

Forums

The topics structure is very different from that of Expertzzz, as was suggested by many of the Unity members. We believe that the new structure would follow a more logical path to critical information.

 

Is this it?

No way! This is only the tip of the iceberg. Now we need YOU to help us sort out the best ways to run the new Unity and make it even better. We need your feedback as never before, for we're now getting ready for something extremely important - and that's coming up soon!

i love the look, i even love the fact that it was my post that i started that made you act on this, only have a few minor issues:
#1 i had to use 2 different accounts as my user name was already taken on expertzzz when i had already signed up here as sammie. and sammie99 on expertzzz.
#2 it shows i have 95 days as a contributor, (just paid for it again last night) but i do not have access to either the contributor forum, that is showing as empty (guessing you took my advice and combined it into the one forum so everyone can lookup the info they need) or is it a bug?
#3 only 6 contributors are listed?
#4 still no comment on the missing admin/moderator chat controls in dolphin 6.1.1 can someone comment on this?

HI! I am having problems with my ad-free license. The links in the footer were removed following the release of 6.1.1 but I noticed to my amazement that they where present again. I have also noticed that in 'my licenses' my ad-free license is no longer registered. I was wondering whether this is related to the update. I want to launch asap so any help with this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Nick

I am very confused with Support... I have been trying to get support for months now.

After I posted a complain on this blog, I got an email .. but when I send the list of things I need .. I get silence.

I sent this email on May 9.. .then again a few days ago.. no response. Seems like posting on this blog is the ONLY way to get a response.

Hi Artur,

It is very very strange ... but I will give you the benefit of the doubt.

You guys need a "Trouble Ticket" system where we can open tickets
online instead of sending email.

Here's is the stuff ... some of these my get fixed if we upgrade to 6.1.

1. Link on comments do not work. They take you back to the main page.

2. Import of users is incomplete. TONS of users from Spain when they are obviously
from some other country. Note that Spain is the default country.

3.Orca allows non-members to post. Would like to limit it to only member as "anonymous" posts
show the photo of the currently logged person.. and I get tons of complains because of that. I looked
around in the forums and changed settings .. but they don't work.

4. www.amistad.com/cafealmediodia is extremely slow ... rest of the site and other profiles are fine.

5. Would like to upgrade to 6.1 ... to se if it would fix some of the bugs. I have 6.04 ...

Let me know if some of these are not covered .. and how much would it be.

Thanks,

Richard

Hello Andre,

I want to change the subject and make a suggestion. I was a recording studio executive for many years and I think the way new music is produced might help you to process the extentions created by your independant programmers.

In the music industry we purchase the right to produce a song if we like it. Once the contract with the artist is signed we then produce the song in our studio making any agreed upon changes to the music to insure it's success. We then handle the marketing and customer support for the artist who normally is not suited to manage these matters. Once the music or in this case an extension is sold the artist receives a commission or a royalty check as compensation.

I think if you adopt a similar approach you can generate seamless extensions for public consumption which can be modified to work everytime regardless of the Version Level and your associate programmers can make money and concentrate on what they do best rather than facing the daunting task of marketing and supporting their products.

For your license to work you NEED the latest patch.

To find you license: look at your old BACKUP files:

find something like: ../ray/modules/chat/xml/main.xml

(and chat can be any ray module of course)

open it in dreamweaver - or even notepad.

you will see something like:

<items><item key="status"><![CDATA[enabled]]></item><item key="license"><![CDATA[********]]></item><item key="code"><![CDATA[chat_3.1.0000]]></item><item key="updated"><![CDATA[true]]></item><item key="updateLast" /><item key="updateUrl" /></items>


ALL the ********** is your license number.
That is how I found them.

I downloaded and installed 6.1.1 yesterday afternoon. I can't get the free license to work.

I also have a problem with the photos, video, music, etc. links being broken, though I followed the installer exactly and set the permissions accordingly (took me forever).

I'm a professional web designer and know my stuff, but I refuse to go in and make edits and hacks to files that should be set up properly to begin with. I want some thing that "just works". Take Joomla, for instance.

I'm still interested to purchasing the install service and ad-free license, but with what I have been reading, I am not so sure anymore. Boonex, help restore my faith!

When there is no doubt about the incompetence of an employee even if they are your best friend from the Old Country or whatever you must fire that person or demote them to the help desk or something and then replace them with a truly experienced and capable person. I fear that your entire business is at stake due to the obvious incompetance of somone within your organization and the time to be a nice guy is over if you hope to save the company.

re:"Wow,owning a site with dolphin users as members and considering it succesfull is totally irrational, its like boonex.us:

Explain what you mean. Why do you find it irrational?

Tell me, is there something you somehow know about my goals and my pursuits that has given you insight to call my personal experience with my site "irrational".

BoonexNerd.com has helped a few people to modify their own Dolphin site. The site has provided free tutorials, mods and shared experiences from the forum.

How can you call helping people "irrational"?

Unless you know my definition of success, that is in essence what you've said.

I'll tell you what. If you'd like, you have my personal invitation to join and try out the site. As an incentive, send me an e-mail with the problems you've had with Dolphin and I will do my very best to see if I can solve them. And if I can't solve them there is a growing legion of other developers like the tireless MrPowless, the powerful CyberXing, just do it Dadniel, Do Gooder DosDawgs (smokes...I know I am gonna miss someone), Simion and a few more that I haven't the memory to remember at this time.

Either way I leave the choice to you.

Hey, thanks Jtadeo for your definition of success!

And as an incentive while your at it why don't you ask your buddy Just Steal It Dadniel to return the two hundred fifty dollars he stole from us, or how about the fact that he threatened me when I tried to get a refund, and let's not forget Make A Quick Buck Pen and Pixels who ripped us off for three hundred fifty, or Brown666 who sold us a package deal of stolen mods which he never installed for three hundred dollars.

We have a memory to remember all of these rats and that's why our investigators are tracking them down. If Boonex weren't in the process of doing something about these crooks we would have abandoned this program long ago.
