It's been 2 months since our last product announcements and we have many new updates to tell you about.  In our last update we had announced our latest release of DT Register and we introduced new plugins for subscribing to newletters.    Since then there have been many critical fixes as well as several enhancements.  We have a new release of DT Register for Joomla 1.5, 2.5 and 3.0.

New Version of DT Donate

We will be releasing version 3.0.0 of DT Donate in the next few days.  This version is a total re-write of DT Donate and some significant enhancements have been made to the product for Joomla 2.5 and Joomla 3.0.   No changes were made to the 1.5 version.   With this new version of DT Donate, it will be possible to add more gateways into DT Donate quicker than in the past.   Also the product has been opened up to allow for some future plugins to be developed.   For example, we will be introducing plugins to allow a person who donates to subscribe to newsletters and to optionally post a facebook message or tweet about their donation.   While those are future plans, here is what has been added to the new version of DT Donate.

• Added support for Moneris Payment Gateway.
• Enhanced DT Donate to trigger a PHP script upon the completion of a donation.

NEW PRODUCT - DT Invoice

DTH Development will be announcing the release of its latest extension DT Invoice in a few days.   DT Invoice can be used as a stand alone invoicing component or as an integrated invoicing component that generates PDF invoices automatically for DT Register events.   More details will be provided upon the release.   

What is the Status for Joomla 1.5?

Now that we have released DT Register 3.0.2 many of you are probably asking what will happen with support for Joomla 1.5.   At this point we are only doing critical bug fixes for Joomla 1.5   We are seeing tickets that are being caused by malware issues.   The Joomla 1.5 platform is no longer being updated and these malware issues are popping up because the platform is no longer being updated to address security issues.   We strongly encourage everyone to start making plans to move to a newer version of Joomla very soon as we will be dropping support within the next year for Joomla 1.5.
