Posted By: Nam Tran Ybarra On: 13 Jun 2009 04:59 AM
Details Another milestone

Update: Version 2.03 beta is out, download it from the bundle download page

Version 2.03 is on its way! Expected release date is tentative at this point but we are aiming for a mid August release. (make sure your annual service subscription has been renewed to get this release if you are an Enterprise or Core member. Just CLICK HERE to login to renew your subscription if you need.)

It will change the way you are used to seeing the Navigation, Create page, Audio, Video, Article, Product Manager areas and much more. These many changes will help to make your daily tasks much easier, productive and enjoyable. This will also give you much more flexibility when setting up pages for subscription scheduled content release. You will see a bigger, more powerful, userfriendly Memberspeed application in this 2.03 version, guaranteed!

For details please read...

Important key points:
==============
Navigation:
------------
+ Page drip - this will allow you to schedule (drip feed) your page content from number of days after registration or from a set date. You could create a years worth of content, schedule it all to release weekly or monthly or however you need to your paid subscribers.

+ Add multimedia on a page - You can now have both content & videos & audios all on the same page. You could then set up specific pages loaded with content, videos, audios & products as you need and drip feed it all according to your membership site needs.

+ Reduce clicking in navigation/create page - It's all now one easy to manage area to add or edit a page.

+ Create page in sequence, control page per membership, control page with a time set schedule. You can set your content to be released on specific dates (Dec 1st) or by the number of days after registration (31 days after sign up). We're working on also making it to work by number of days after date of upgrading as well.

+ Add group to create navigation block, flexible site navigation block. You can now separate your membership levels in navigation blocks in your main menus such as Free Members / Gold Members / Visitors and so forth.

+ Create subcategory on the fly, real time switching,changing page/category. When you create pages you can easily put them or change them wherever & whenever you want on your site as a main category or a subcategory using one click features.

===========> Goal Accomplished with this: To allow you to use one centralized area on your site to add video, audio & content and drip feed it for your members rather than having it set up on 3 or 4 different module areas. This not only makes it easier for you to set up and manage your content but makes it much easier for your members to find it all as well.

Audio / Video / Article / Product Manager (All 4 Modules)
---------------------------------------
+ Files are stored as tags to be used on page drip: audio tags, video tags, product tags. This is a wonderful feature that allows you to save every video you add into a 'title tag' stored in the system that you can just add on to your create page area with just a few simple clicks.

+ Unlimited subcategory in audio / video / article / product manager plugins. You can now have as many submenu categories as you like rather than be limited to just one level. Good for getting those longtail keywords set up on your sites for drilling down to specific keywords. Of course not only is this great for search engines but also for your vistors and members to find things quickly and easily if you have hundreds of videos, audios, products or articles on your site.

+ Amazon S3 supports for file storing. Amazon has a great service (you can see more here: http://aws.amazon.com/s3/ ) that lets you store all your videos or audios on their servers. So you could have hundreds of gigabites or even tetrabites of content stored on their servers and display it through your MemberSpeed powered pages. Awesome!

+ Unlimited file uploading, 4 ways uploading file : direct upload, url upload, ftp upload, amazon s3 upload. You now have the freedom to choose where you want to upload and store all your media files and have them displayed on your MemberSpeed pages from wherever they are! We understand some files can get very large - into the hundreds of gigabites nowadays and uploading via the built in uploader could sometimes not handle the size or not be compatiable with the server your MemberSpeed site was hosted on. Now you can overcome all these issues with this new feature.

+ Url protection, file can be hosted anywhere. Protect your files that your site visitors and members see while having them hosted anywhere you want now!

In the works: we are in beta testing of upgrading the Video & Audio players also. Potentially the upgrades will allow you to have video sharing features for social networking benefits and video advertising built in to better monitize your websites



VIP Shopping Cart Built In:
---------------

The VIP Shopping Cart has now surpassed the original MS shopping cart module which was built a few years ago in features and user friendliness. We encourage you to use the VIP Cart module now rather than the older MS shopping cart module which will be phased out eventually. You can of course continue to use the MS shopping cart but please keep in mind that No further upgrades will be done to it HOWEVER, we will continue to upgrade the VIP Shopping Cart.

+ Multiple currencies support: Currently we offer the ability to bill customers in the following currencies that are all compatible with 2checkout.com:

Australian Dollar (AUD)
Canadian Dollar (CAD)
Swiss Franc (CHF)
Danish Krone (DKK)
Euro (EUR)
British Pound (GBP)

Japanese Yen (JPY)
Norwegian Krone (NOK)
New Zealand Dollar (NZD)
Swedish Krona (SEK)
U.S. Dollar (USD)

In addition you can use Paypal as an integrated payment gateway to accept payments from all authorized currencies with them.

Either way you can choose your payment gateway in your shopping cart set up from Paypal.com or 2checkout.com. We will be continuing to expand payment gateways such as Authorize.net and others in future upgrades.

+ Recurring payment/trial/installment support for both physical and digital products. When adding a new product you can select it as a physically shipped or a digitally delivered download with one click settings. You can also choose one time or subscription based for payment options. This allows you to send out a monthly physically shipped product such as a DVD, CD, Newsletter etc or do the same thing digitally via your shopping cart.

+ Multiple vendors drop shipping, (creative way :Allow other people to sell products on your cart ). Now you can outsource you product fullfillment to drop shipping companies. You can even have multiple drop shippers set up so you could have one company collect and ship out your business suit orders while another company handles the shirt and tie orders for example. Just add your warehouses and drop shippers in the Drop Shipping area and you're done. This area will be continually upgraded to enhance user friendliness and the needs of using drop shipping with your store front.

+ Kunaki support . Kunaki.com is a quick, easy and reliable from of drop shipping that is becoming more and more popular nowadays. We're undergoing development and testing to ensure you can easily use Kunaki to fullfill your orders soon.

+ Product variation. Need to add color choices? Size choices? Gadget add on choices? You can now do all of this in this added area under Products.

+ Enhanced cart reports. You can now easily view all your sales analytics, sales reports, product reports, low stock reports, all stock reports, all review reports in one
easy to manage area. Good for quickly finding your stats to see what needs to be done to increase profits.

+ Real time shipping : ups, usps, fedex support. If you're doing your own shipping this allows you to easily set up and send orders that go out to your customers. These are some of the major shippers in the world and we will continue to research, develop and test the adding of more International shippers in future upgrades.

+ Affiliate mass pay via paypal. You can now do mass payments to all your affiliates at once with just a few clicks allowing you to make affiliate commission payments quickly, easily & securely.

Congrats - these 3 are a MAJOR step forward:

1. Subscription based scheduled content release
2. Simple (VIP) Shopping Cart
3. Being able to send out a monthly physically shipped product such as a DVD

But please add Kunaki to the mix as soon as you can
AND give us the ability to integrate PayDotCom + Google Checkout
(as the current limited Paypal buttons are costing sales!)
