Hahahaha, you're absolutely correct.  I just installed it and have been playing with it and so far it's excellent!  Thanks again for the info.

;-) You"r welcome!

I know than using beta versions can be strange for common users. But you have to understand than the Store module is not like others. Because an online store can be critical. This is why I try to correct every bug discovered asap. They are 'stable' but can contains bugs. Another reason is that Codeplex use only three levels to qualify a release: Alpha, Beta and Stable. The current Store beta versions are stable but they are not qualified as "stable" because they have not been submited to the release tracker. I have not produced Alpha versions until now, but I will for the future 3 version. Beta is used for "stable" versions, but not verified by the dnn core team. Stable is used for "released" (verified) versions.

On the other hand, you can wait for the next "official" version, but it took times. The beta version 02.01.21 was submitted to the release tracker 15 days ago and rejected last friday for some problems with the package. I have to create a new package with the last beta version and submit this version again. There are several steps in the release tracker and it can take 1 month (or more) before being released. Moreover, the release tracker do not give you any warranty about a bug free version. It's just several steps to verify if the mdoule follows some rules like the packages, localization and so on. The proof is that the bug you have found was first discovered after the version 02.01.00 was officialy released.

We (team members) are Humans offering their knowledge, their work and their spare time FOR FREE to benefit the community. It would be so particularly appreciated that your messages begin with "Hello" and end with "Thank you" or any other form of politeness. Ask yourself what your reaction would be, if you were approached by me (a total stranger) on the street to ask you something without saying "Hello" nor "Thank you"? After several years of services dedicated to the community, I begin to be tired to read requests without any form of politeness.
