With availability of Magento 1.9.3 and the SUPEE-8788 Security Patch the Adobe Flash Player based Uploadeder used on the Downloadable Product Links and other Media Uploads is now replaced by a HTML5 Uploader.

This also affects our DownloadPlus for Magento Extension, as well as the related Add-Ons, so please update your store installation with the latest DownloadPlus for Magento release 0.3.83 which has the related changes implemented.

With release of Magento 1.9.2.2 and the SUPEE-6788 Patch our EuVAT for Magento extension for flexible handling of EU VAT regulations with the Magento store was affected by necessary changes to the Admin Backend functions.

The maintenance release 0.3.76 has the necessary changes included.

Magento 1.9.2.2 includes the SUPEE-6788 Patch which addresses a Admin-URL vulnerability which affects also our extensions.

We are currently in the process of updating our extensions code to adopt the required changes introduced by this Magento release and Security Patch.

Magento Community Edition was recently released with branch version 1.8. We are currently in process of reviewing our extensions with this new Magento Communicy Edition version.

As soon as we have one extension reviewed and tested with this new Magento branch, it will be released here for purchase of the license.

Selling or distribution of large files, especially Digital Media, from its own server may quickly require large server capacities for a Magento Store installation.

Using our DownloadPlus extension, with the Amazon Web Services Add-On, allows to easily farm out the digital file distribution to the Amazon Cloud while still having control over the access and the distribution of such files.

Please update your EuVAT installation if you have recently downloaded the maintenance release 0.3.52 of this extension. That release had a path error in the installation file and did unintentionally overwrite some core template files.

With 1. July 2013 Croatia is member of the European Union, and with it for business transactions the same VAT regulations come into place as for all other EU member countries.

This means if you are using our EuVAT for Magento extension, and your store is also accepting transactions from addresses in Croatia, to update your EuVAT for Magento extension.

With the release of the new Magento 1.6 branch we are now gradually opening new version branches of our Magento extensions and making the adaptations required by the changes in the new Magento branch.

EuVAT for Magento is now available as version branch maintained for Magento 1.6.

We ourselves and customers using the EuVAT for Magento extension are currently exprienced failures in communication with the EU VIES service. That is caused by a disruption on the EU VIES web-service which is out of our area of influence.

The EU VIES web service for validation of EU VAT numbers has performed some changes to their service, in detail the address under which the remote service use and validation takes place. These changes may lead to messages of EuVAT that the remote endpoint is not accessible.
