In line with other steps of getting our sites packed into one, we are updating Boonex Unity, now incorporating Expertzzz.com functionality and adding more.
Unity is a sophisticated system and it's gaining traction. For convenience sake we'll now be tracking update versions and the latest is now known as Unity 1.0.0.
You'd better try it out. You'll see a lot of big and small changes here. Most notably, you will now see Extensions, Jobs and Ads here, which means that we decided to launch an alternative to Expertzzz.com here. We just took all our experience, your comments/complaints/suggestions and built a new system with the primary focus on security and quality.
Ok, here's how we're going to do that... Expert status is no longer as simple as falling down - you have to earn it and prove that you are an Expert. This you can do by submitting one free Extension for review by our admins. yes, that would mean that you have to provide at least one free Extension to maintain your Expert status. A little bit of free stuff the the community and you have your business opportunity to sell your other works here.
Next, every single Extension submitted will have to pass an approval process, which will involve both moderators and admins.
And, finally, every active Extension has to maintain a high rating to stay available for purchase. That rating will include both the product quality and support quality factors.
Check out the new membership levels. It should be pretty self explanatory, but your questions are still welcome.
All in all, you may see that we're trying to involve more community participation in making this system secure and free of spam/fraud/leeching.
...will stay on. Yes, we're not shutting it down, for it is full of great data, valuable products and healthy activity. Moreover, we have some plans on how to improve it. The main difference, however, is that Expertzzz will now go it's own, independent way and will be more open, which may be both bad and good, depending on how smart and careful you are.
Accounts from Expertzzz and Contributor statuses are now merged with the new Unity.
The topics structure is very different from that of Expertzzz, as was suggested by many of the Unity members. We believe that the new structure would follow a more logical path to critical information.
No way! This is only the tip of the iceberg. Now we need YOU to help us sort out the best ways to run the new Unity and make it even better. We need your feedback as never before, for we're now getting ready for something extremely important - and that's coming up soon!
#1 i had to use 2 different accounts as my user name was already taken on expertzzz when i had already signed up here as sammie. and sammie99 on expertzzz.
#2 it shows i have 95 days as a contributor, (just paid for it again last night) but i do not have access to either the contributor forum, that is showing as empty (guessing you took my advice and combined it into see more
Thanks,

The free licence generator doesn't work.
It generates a licence, but then they wont work!
All my old ones have gone?
BUT: Where have my licenses gone?
Where can I find my smart pro back area (eg licence number, downloads) in the new unity? Beside this I get 404 errors in the new unity.
Regards, Herbert
Downloads from Expertzzz won't be transfered on the new Unity. You can redownload them from the Expertzzz only.
As for the post above about firefox, maybe its just you as its not giving me any problems and i've tried 3 separate PC's (all of which are on diff networks/sites), not that that really makes any difference ;)
After I posted a complain on this blog, I got an email .. but when I send the list of things I need .. I get silence.
I sent this email on May 9.. .then again a few days ago.. no response. Seems like posting on this blog is the ONLY way to get a response.

Logged in to admin and was told my copy of dolphin was not registered.
I went to UNITY to retrieve my licenses. They where no longer there.
Whats going on??????
I stopped using the system a month or so ago, so I'm kinda lucky I'm not going through this crap I guess. I just didn't appreciate the "don't mess with the footer" nonsense and the licensing BS was getting on

I want to change the subject and make a suggestion. I was a recording studio executive for many years and I think the way new music is produced might help you to process the extentions created by your independant programmers.
In the music industry we purchase the right to produce a song if we like it. Once the contract with the artist is signed we then produce the song in our studio making any agreed upon changes to the music to insure it's success. We then handle the marketing see more
Woow it's great style and features is amazing
I don't see any problem unitl Now .. this is Good elso

This is Killing my Business... Not to Mention The Newly purchase of Licenses Which I just bought...
Payment To BoonEx May 16, 2008 Completed Details -$234.00 AUD
That are Now LOST!
Very Disappointed,
Beef
Is it a screwup… yes.
Will they fix it … yes
Just calm down I am sure they are working as hard as they can in the meantime lay off and give them a chance to get Unity working.
To find you license: look at your old BACKUP files:
find something like: ../ray/modules/chat/xml/main.xml
(and chat can be any ray module of course)
open it in dreamweaver - or even notepad.
you will see something like:
<items><item key="status"><![CDATA[enabled]]></item><item key="license"><![CDATA[********]]></item><item key="code"><![CDATA[chat_3.1.0000]]></item><item see more
By the way - I have my 6.1 + 3.5 working for 95% - all but the profile-video-recorder works for me now!
Have you figured it out by any chance?
I also have a problem with the photos, video, music, etc. links being broken, though I followed the installer exactly and set the permissions accordingly (took me forever).
I'm a professional web designer and know my stuff, but I refuse to go in and make edits and hacks to files that should be set up properly to begin with. I want some thing that "just works". Take Joomla, for instance.
I'm see more
Now the problem is completely resolved.
Please try to register your software again, with old licenses or just generated.
Sorry for any inconvenience.
I guess in this case it all depends on how you define success.
My own site is SUCCESSFUL in every way I wanted and in ways I only saw others achieving that I didn't consider would happen to me. With Dolphin, not only did I meet up with like minded designers and developers, I've been able to work with clients who wanted mods done. Through the site and via e-mails, many have become whom I now consider as friends :D We share info, links, advice and the funny joke or pic once in a while. see more
re:"Wow,owning a site with dolphin users as members and considering it succesfull is totally irrational, its like boonex.us:
Explain what you mean. Why do you find it irrational?
Tell me, is there something you somehow know about my goals and my pursuits that has given you insight to call my personal experience with my site "irrational".
BoonexNerd.com has helped a few people to modify their own Dolphin site. The site has provided free tutorials, mods and shared experiences see more
And as an incentive while your at it why don't you ask your buddy Just Steal It Dadniel to return the two hundred fifty dollars he stole from us, or how about the fact that he threatened me when I tried to get a refund, and let's not forget Make A Quick Buck Pen and Pixels who ripped us off for three hundred fifty, or Brown666 who sold us a package deal of stolen mods which he never installed for three hundred dollars.
We have a memory to remember see more
Yikes! Sorry to hear about that. That sounds like a real horror story.
Hard lesson to learn and I hope things get worked out in the future for you and those involved.
Good luck!
