Hi,

It gives me great pleasure to release a new version of Ceon Manual Card.

It has some nice new updates which improve the usability of the software, especially when using American Express cards!

There are also some bugfixes, so it's worth updating to this latest version.


All changes, from the Revision History:

[ADDED] The information displayed about a card's CV2 number has been updated to take into account the difference between American Express cards and all other card types. Ceon Manual Card will now display different error messages according to whether or not the card type selected is an American Express card. If no card type is selected then the information displayed will also now take into account whether or not American Express cards are an option, so that the information being displayed to the user more accurately describes the options open to them when they have to enter a CV2 number (Unique Card Code in American Express' terms).

[ADDED] Information about whether a Start Date was selected and/or an Issue Number entered is now only displayed if appropriate for the store's configuration, possibly resulting in a neater display of the module's output on the order page.

[ADDED] New stylesheet added to allow much quicker/easier installation of the software, providing default styles in one central place.

[ADDED] “Powered by Ceon software” graphic and link added to Cards Accepted sidebox. This reassuring badge for the store gives customers confidence that the store uses reliable, quality software when handling their sensitive card details. (Can be enabled/disabled as desired through admin).

[UPDATED] Sensitive card details were being cleared from the session unnecessarily when a store uses a shared SSL certificate with a subdirectory path.

[UPDATED] Start Date configuration moved from the Security configuration settings group to a new Card Options group.

[UPDATED] All files updated to comply with Ceon Coding Guidelines (http://dev.ceon.net/software/coding-guidelines).

[BUGFIX] Language defines were missing for the error messages to be shown when problems with MasterCard debit cards were encountered.

[BUGFIX] Wrong define name was being used for the error message which was displayed when the customer didn't enter the CV2 number. (Problem only showed up when JavaScript was disabled in the customer's browser and a CV2 number was required but missing).

[UPDATED] Installation instructions updated to use a single step when detailing the styling of the module's output using CSS styles. Since default styles are now provided using the new stylesheet for the module, only a single step describing the changing of these styles is necessary, instead of multiple steps detailing how to add the styles for the various aspects of the software's output.

[REMOVED] Information and snippets for Zen Cart 1.2.x and Zen Cart 1.3.0 - 1.3.2 removed from distribution as only Zen Cart versions 1.3.9h and 1.5.x are secure enough to be used. Stores using older Zen Cart versions should upgrade their version of Zen Cart.



The latest version should be available from the downloads area shortly.

As always the latest version can be downloaded directly at any time from the Ceon website:

All the best..
