Version 3.4 Released

Version 3.4 was released on Sunday, March 18th.

Numerous design changes were made to the DJ Website Tools. Changes were made to: Payment Gateway, Contact Us Form, Guest Request System, Music Database, Client Payment Page. For the DJEP back-end, changes were made to the timeline configuration, planning form configuration, and a several other functions.

Several usability features were added, like populating the city and state field when the zip code is entered on the add/edit event form, and pre-filling some of the payment fields.

The coolest new feature is the integration of the music features with iTunes. A "listen" link is placed next to each song. When a client clicks on this link, the iTunes application on their computer will automatically be launched. A search for the song title and artist will automatically be performed and they can preview and even purchase the song.
