!!!************************CAUTION************************!!!
Patches/updates often contain updated language and template files.
If you have custom language or templates, you should merge the
changes rather than overwriting your files. Tools such as Beyond
Compare or WinMerge work great for this.

12/04/2008 v2.8.0

Note: This is our first release containing the new XHTML compatible templates. While we have tried to maintain backwards
compatibility in regards to the templates, we can NOT state for sure that old templates will still function without issues.
Certain pages will certainly not function with old templates as the code had to be reworked extensively to obtain error
free templates and operation.

*** MAKE SURE A FULL BACKUP IS DONE OF YOUR AWBS SYSTEM BEFORE PROCEEDING! ***
All clients are urged to upgrade to the v3 template scheme before resuming customer operations on their AWBS site. After install of this patch, attempts are made throughout the script to auto-detect the template type (v2 or v3 compatible). This may not be flawless. Once you are ready to convert your site fully to v3 template mode, add the following Extended System Config key/value: key: v3templates value: 1

    compare your custom templates to the new templates and merge in new changes and remove things that were removed from the
    template in the upgrade. Important! Some templates are theme specific. If you do not use the business theme, download the
    theme you use from the download area and do not use the templates in the upgrade zip.
  5. Review any other changed files that you have customized, such as cp2.php, createacctprefs.php, etc. to ensure you do not lose

    1. Add your credit card encryption password in the system setup, system options page IF you use an onsite credit card processor with
      recurring support OR you use manual cc processing module. It is important that you add the exact same password that has been
      used to encrypt all credit cards previously.
    2. Configure(create) download categories if you use the download area. Assign each download to a new category.
    3. If using 2checkout with recurring other packages, verfiy/add recurring product IDs for any recurring other packages offered in the
      Other Package Setup area.
    4. Review module setup page for any new modules you wish to use/configure.

**Critical Update**

Addresses the following issues and adds the following features:

  • (FIX) Critical Invoice Cron fix!
    A serious problem with the invoice cron has come to our attention this evening.
    Since the release of 2.0, the nightly cron has been generating new invoices, but
    has not included the client package id in the invoice. When one of these invoices is
    paid, AWBS does not know which package to update the renew date on. This patch will:
    a) correct future invoices to be generated correctly
    b) go back in time and fix any UNPAID invoices with the proper package id
    c) provide you a list of invoices that have been paid while in this state.
    Using the generated list, you will be able to manually check, and correct if needed,
    the next renew date and renewed on date on affected packages.
  • (FIX) Corrected Helm package ID lister to pull ID's correctly
  • (FIX) Fixed Directi engine include issue
  • (FIX/CHANGE) Misc other fixes/tweaks
