We just wanted to post a quick update on the demo status. We had reports of a bug on the Mosets Tree Pro Search release soon after the rollout. Customers were reporting they would click on the links on the search results but the pages would not open. This only happened on a subset of the full customer base.

We have finally tracked down this bug. It is an issue with the Mosets Tree SEF and not the ZCS Search Component.

If you have multiple links with the exact same name you cannot use the default SEF method "Alias" links under Mosets Tree > Configuration > SEF URLs. You must select "Link ID" for the SEF method. Alias uses the link name in the SEF URL. If two listings have identical names then Mosets Tree doesn't know which link to display as the URLs for two different links are identical.

For example here are the SEF URLs for two listings on our demo site:

http://www.zipcodeshop.com/demo/Mosets_Tree_Demo/mosets-tree-directory/ruby-tuesday/32439

http://www.zipcodeshop.com/demo/Mosets_Tree_Demo/mosets-tree-directory/ruby-tuesday/32438

with Alias set as the SEF method instead of Link ID, both URLs are:

http://www.zipcodeshop.com/demo/Mosets_Tree_Demo/mosets-tree-directory/ruby-tuesday/ruby-tuesday

When you click on this link, Mosets Tree just shows the link list and not the individual listing.

We have updated our customers this morning with this information and we are updating all of our documentation. Now that we are confident this is not a bug, we will be publishing the demos today.

For those of you that have asked, our new "key-free" search form uses the Google Maps API v3. Google decided to drop support for IE6 with version 3 so our new search form does not work with IE6. However, we still include the older form which uses Google Maps API v2 (and a key) if you need to support IE6. The non-javascript enabled search form should support almost any browser.

Eventually we will drop support for IE6 altogether. So encourage your customers to upgrade their browsers.

The demo servers for Community Builder and Mosets Tree are now live with the newest version of Joomla, Mosets Tree and Community Builder. While we will always have the current release version of all three running on the servers, you will see the actual system requirements listed on the "Buy" page for each component. Make sure your server meets these requirements before purchase.

We will have links on each server to walk you through creating a test listing or profile along with a link to the ZCS search page for each server later today. Please be aware that all data on these servers is visible to the public. Please do not use any location data you would not want the general public aware of.
