DirectoryPress 6.0

DirectoryPress 6.0 Beta Version

280 cups of starbucks coffee, 173 ham snadwhiches, 1 roast turkey (under cooked), 64 bags of chrips, endless trips to WC and finally..DirectoryPress 6.0 is born!

Listening closely to feedback and suggestions from customers and the forum community i have really tried hard to improve and enhance the overall structure and functionality of the theme to benfit both website admin and enhance the overall user experience for your loyal visitors.

There are more than 50 new features and website changes found in the latest release which i sincerly hope you will enjoy as well as new child templates which will be revealed with the stable release in Febuary.

Download the beta version Tuesday 17th Jan

As with every software release i like to provide a beta download giving you the chance to test drive the new system and provide feedback before the final release date.

The beta download will be available to all existing DirectoryPress and VIP Club members and can be found in your VIP client area on Tuesday 17th Jan.

Note: This is a beta test version NOT an upgrade or live version, this should be used for testing only.

Beta to Stable Release

Due to the amount of code changes, i invision a period of 2 or 3 weeks before the stable version will be released with is estimated to be the 20th of Feb. As many of you may know i work solely on the development of all the PremiumPress themes to ensure they are developed to the highest standards possible however some bugs are envenitable and the beta version will enable everyone to help bring any kinks to my attention.

Finally..Thank you!

i would like to take this oppotunity to thank everyone who has contributed with feedback and suggestions to help improve my PremiumPress products, myself and my team work very hard to ensure all customers recieve the same high level of customer support and satisfaction and we trutly apprichate your continue support and loyalty.

Kind Regards
