new ui

We've had mostly positive feedback from vendors since launching the new admin earlier this week, but there have been a few bugs and a couple user interface issues we needed to address. We've been continuously releasing updates this week as things pop up, so here is a rollup of changes we've made: More Transparent Product Key Inventory A vendor wrote in and told us how important it was to be able to see available key inventory from the product list and suggested some changes to make his and all "key sellers" lives easier so we implemented them!

Because we want DPD to work for the vast majority of our users (and their customers on the cart and delivery pages) we keep a close eye on our visitor platform / browser statistics. We don't compile statistics for individual stores or sites (and don't want to)- these are aggregate numbers across every product, delivery page, cart, and the DPD site itself. I thought I'd share some basic usage statistics with everyone so they can get some insight in to their fellow vendors as well as the visitors that purchase from their sites: Platform / Operating System (top 5): There are really no surprises here. Windows 85.94% Macintosh 12.49% Linux 0.78% iPhone 0.38% iPod 0.12% Browser (top 5): The Browser stats were interesting to us with Firefox being used more than Internet Explorer among...

We're hard at work adding new features and improvements to DPD. We wanted to give you guys a little teaser preview of what we've been working on, so check out the screenshot for a sneak peak of the coming user interface overhaul and new features! Multiple sales methods per product- add as many buttons with their own checkout method (storefront or instant) and price Better product inventory management and lookup tools redesigned user interface to handle all the extra information Google Checkout support ...and more!
