Upgrading From Beta 1
Currently there is no upgrade path for existing installations. To take advantage of all the bug fixes, we recommend that you install a new copy of the software.

Installing the Billing Application
Once you have installed the main IP.Nexus application, upload the contents of the ‘upload’ folder from the ‘Billing’ download. The file structure has been preserved in the zip.
Once the files have been uploaded, log into your IP.Nexus ACP and click on ‘Applications & Modules’ -> ‘Manage Applications & Modules’. You’ll see the Billing application at the bottom of the screen. Click on its ‘Install’ link to start the installation procedure.

If you wish to use this offer all you need to…

As our current customers already know tmod has been a *HUGE* asset to eXtremepixels by helping out our customers in the customers lounge. He has been helping out around the forum for months now and I asked him to join the EP staff and take over our IPB skins development.

I was very pleased that he…

With the recent upgrade to PHP 5 it seems that our product ordering & download system has a few issues that need to be resolved.

They’ll be taken care of ASAP.
