If no logo is specified for the client theme, it defaults to the Blesta logo. It automatically detects the background color and chooses the white logo, or the color logo for the proper contrast.

Since you asked, here's how the ajax boxes order page looks with a few different client themes. The purple theme is a new theme shipping with 3.2 called "Booty" as it's based on the Bootstrap 3 color scheme from the Bootstrap website.

The screenshot showing the boxes have a blue heading, I believe this is inherited from the panel color set for the client area. The slider version doesn't utilize any real color. Both have a header, and the header colors are part of the client theme which can be changed.

The wizard boxes and slider look identical to the ajax version, but the flow of the order form is multi-step. Additional designs will follow over time, at least initially with package selection. Here we have a slider and boxes design for package selection. We are likely to implement additional sliders and boxes that vary in look & feel and introduce other types like a vertical listing of packages for selection. The implementation of new bootstrap based order templates makes it not only easier for us to move forward with new designs, but it makes it easier for others to customize the look on their own.

It's looking like the beta will be starting next week as we have a few things left to do to wrap up 3.2. If you're a direct customer, you will be able to participate in the beta as soon as it starts. 3.2 will have a total of 5 order templates you can select from, including. - Standard (The order form shipped with Blesta 3.0-3.1, converted to Bootstrap) - Ajax Boxes - Ajax Slider - Wizard Boxes - Wizard Slider The new ajax order forms are essentially a one-page order form (for the most part) and come in two package selection options, boxes and a slider. The new wizard order forms are essentially the ajax order form as a multi-step, and it support both the boxes and slider package selection options. The overall designs are basically the same. Here's a screenshot of the ajax boxes, and ajax slider order forms. We look forward to your feedback, especially during the beta. We want these new order forms not only to look great, but to work great too. IP Board scaled down the full size screenshots for some reason, so they appear a little blurry. They are smaller than the maximum size allowed, so not sure why it's doing that.

Last I saw they had it scheduled for March 31, see http://vestacp.com/roadmap/. I haven't heard whether they've completed it or not.

In a market saturated by hosting providers I think pricing and plan information is more important to the decision making process. We have many fewer competitors and people are more interested in our features to start with than the price.

Every step / action users are required to make, some will drop off. You want the most important information to be "above the fold". That doesn't necessarily have to be plan information, but I've seen a lot of very effective hosting companies give priority to plan information. Whatever you display above the fold, it should draw the user in and make them want to spend some more time on your website.

Nothing to do with the price, those boxes have plan information. As a visitor, I want to see what's being offered. If you can't show me the goods in 2 seconds I'm gone. Sounds rough, but people are incredibly impatient. Edit: Probably shouldn't have said "nothing to do with the price", price matters but my point still stands -- whatcha got?

I like this one better - http://i.imgur.com/vHGhdg6.jpg but my suggestion, whichever you go with the pricing options shouldn't be all the way at the bottom. Closer to the top, would be better.

Centralizing human verification options to company settings has been assigned CORE-1134. Adding human verification to support tickets will depend on completion of this task.

That's impressive!

The goal is by the end of next week, but we're cutting it close for that so no guarantees.

3.2 beta will start very soon, final release is generally 2-3 weeks after beta but depends on how large the update is and how many bug fixes there are.

One thing I'd like to see also, is a "test email" option where I can send a copy of the email to myself, perhaps randomly selecting a customer whos details will be used. This way, if I have a stupid error in the email I can correct it before sending it to everyone.

I agree, and the likelihood of it timing out increases the larger your list. Personally I'm happy to build my message, select my criteria, and click "Queue for Delivery" or something and wait it out. Then, when the cron kicks in and delivery starts, I can see the progress. If my browser crashes the messages will continue to be delivered and I can go back and check on the progress.

Paulov's suggestion of making it cron based would solve the issue of requiring the browser to be active while sending. Instead, the cron could send and log the message, and the browser would simply make ajax requests to Blesta to display that log dynamically. The downside is that you'd have to wait up to 5 minutes for the message to go out. Great suggestions

I've not seen that error before, looks like it may be an issue with perl-libwww-perl. Anything change recently? Your cron command indicates you are running Blesta v2.x, have you thought about upgrading to v3.1?

If I was the IT director, I probably would have blocked P2P ports/protocols and other non-essentials. Sounds like the connection was pretty much useless.

20Mb works out to like 28Kbps for each of those 700 computers, if they are all accessing the Internet at the same time. Slower than dialup!

Now might be a good time to start a discussion about the plugin, are there any features not listed for CORE-621 that you'd like to see?

Show off. I want a PS4. Actually, not sure I have time for that. A lot of places in Europe seem to have very fast residential Internet service. I'd be happy lighting up some dark fiber between the office and my house but that's way too expensive.

An SSL cert is not required for making payments through non merchant gateways. When paying, are you logged in as a client? Payments cannot be processed through the admin area for non merchant gateways because the client typically has to login to PayPal, or other to make payment.

We have updated cPanel extended for Blesta 3.2 so that it's compatible with the bootstrap conversion, however we're not going to be doing much with it going forward. We are however, going to be adding a lot of the extended features to our cPanel module. Unfortunately, there's no way to switch between the two. If our module will work for you for now, I'd suggest using it instead.

I was just chatting with Mike from Licensecart about Internet speed. I think I maxed speedtest.net out from my desk at work. http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/3426368915 My connection at home is only 10Mbps down, 1Mbps up though it bursts to 20Mb+ sometimes. Are you happy with your Internet provider? Who are they? How fast is it? Is it reliable?
