Hello guys
after a few months since our last major update, we have decided its time for a new major update of our most loved theme, the WordPress Auction Theme. This new version truly makes the Auction Theme stand out in front of all the auction scripts around the internet. With our new auction theme, not only you can start your own fully featured auction website, but you can also do it very easily since setting it up only takes 10 minutes for a novice user. You can read below what we worked on during last 3 months to bring this new major update.
So whats new in this update?
This new version is good, and so complete, that not only small businesses can launch a fully featured auction website, but more advanced and bigger businesses can be supported by our auction theme/script. We have added some amazing features on the new theme, like “make an offer and counter offer feature” and we have fixed all the small glitches and now we can say our theme is 100% bug-free after testing it intensively for 2 months.
Also our Auction Theme has been tested with a heavy load of items (around 40.000 running auction items) on a normal VPS server, and it handles a huge amount of data just normally, so thats a good news for those of you out there that want to launch a big auction website. So now we are convinced that our theme is suited for small, medium and big auction websites. Below you can find a complete list of changes/features that have been added to the new version, and also a list of modified files (changelog).
