We are almost done with development of 2.4, the next version of JV-HelpDesk Pro, and here is a sneak preview of the new features being introduced.

Very often there are cases when you might want to provide software or user manuals or pdf downloads of your products or services to your customers. It will be very handy if the support system that you use has this ability. In version 2.4 of JV-HelpDesk Pro, we are adding this capability. You can create file downloads in HelpDesk system back-end, and associate them with categories. Once the file is published, it will be available for customers to download them in site frontend in the HelpDesk system.

We are super excited to announce the release of JV-HelpDesk 2.3 version today. All the new features are introduced in the Business Edition of JV-HelpDesk. Here is a short summary of significant and interesting features introduced:

Public Tickets:

 

Also called Discussions, these are tickets that can be viewed by all registered users and staff members. Nevertheless, only the user who has opened the ticket and the staff member assigned to the ticket can only edit it and add replies to it, and others can only view them. This feature is typically used when the ticket has generic information or question or bug and does not have sensitive or private information in it.  As public tickets can be viewed by all, they serve as a virtual read only forum in your Help Desk system. 

 

We knew that our older customers were not very happy with the switch of our website at jv-extensions.com to Wordpress last year. We experimented that with focus on blogging while we always wanted to continue our focus on building extensions for Joomla! But after trying for 8 months, we are now back to our favorite CMS - Joomla!

We learnt a lot from this switch, and I will share the findings and learnings with the community very soon in a blog post, a real Joomla Vs Wordpress blog post, directly out of first hand experience. But for this post, we are happy to let you know that this website is operating using Joomla, and we are glad to be back. We want to reinforce to our customers, our focus on building Joomla extensions. Here are the major changes at jv-extensions.com after this switch.

 

We are happy to announce the release of JV-PostMaster 3.8 today.

With this version, administrators can now include extra fields in K2 component in the posting message. While choosing tags, they will appear with field-{k2 field id}-{k2 field name}. So it will be easier to spot and add them as required into the message that you wish to post to social media.

If you are using JV-LinkDirectory, then there is an update for you. Today, we have released 5.13.1, the first maintenance release of 5.13 version. Though it is predominantly a bug fix and improvements release, we have added a couple of small but very handy enhancements too.

We are happy to release JV-Relatives 5.9 version to the Joomla community today. The new version has display and styling customization for tags that are displayed in the articles in site front-end, along with a few critical bug fixes.

After 3 weeks of beta testing from beta volunteers, we are super happy to announce the release of JV-LinkDirectory version 5.13 a couple of days back. The download link for this version has been sent to all existing customers via SendOwl, our payments and download partner. We are celebrating the new version release with a 20% discount which is applicable till the end of this month. You may please contact us for the coupon.

We are launching the first beta of JV-LinkDirectory 5.13 version today. This version comes with several new features and improvements, along with bug fixes. Significant features and improvements include:

This is possibly the last update on JV-LinkDirectory before we release JV-LinkDirectory 5.13 for beta testing. We are introducing a major cost saving feature for JV-LinkDirectory customers who can now notify themselves and their listing owners when specific events happen, via SMS (Short Message Service) directly on their mobile phones. A part of this was possible even earlier - viz. the ability to notify themselves by subscribing to Bulk SMS service from Clickatell.com.

We are glad to announce the release of JV-Relatives 5.8 version today. It is predominantly a maintenance and bug fix release. One enhancement that we have added is the ability to create cropped thumbnail images instead of plain resizing to create them. This is also a request from a few customers. You will also need at-least Joomla 3.7 to use 5.8 version on-wards.Existing customers have also been notified by email about this release with links to download the latest version. Please read https://kb.jv-extensions.com/article/543-jv-relatives-version-5-8-release-notes to read the list of changes introduced in this version.

We are glad to share the next set of updates about JV-LinkDirectory 5.13.

 

With JV-LinkDirectory 5.13, you will now be able to have a sliding or horizontally scrolling photo gallery or image carousel right at the top of the listing detail pages. This would be very handy when you have listings related to hotels or restaurants to display a carousel of different services or pictures of the facility!Administrator will be able to define the width and height of the images shown in the carousel in the 'Photos' configuration in back-end. When a photo is uploaded for a listing, JV-LinkDirectory will automatically generate the images for carousel based on the configured dimensions. You can also re-generate the carousel images yourselves anytime from back-end utilities section.As always you can choose to enable to disable the carousel display in frontend. In front-end, the carousel will be shown in the listing detail page just below the header!
