OpenBazaar New Version Aims To Improve Transaction Processes

By July 2, 2016Bitcoin Business

OpenBazaar , a decentralised online marketplace, has announced the release of a new version of its project, Openbazaar 1.1.7 which will include changes in appearance of the platform, fixing of bugs, improved internationalization and other additions. Removal of bugs, page fixes and translation

As claimed in the announcement , the bug which removed images from the ‘about’ section on the user page was fixed. Also, more areas of the app which were not translatable, such as dates, will become translatable. Default text on drop-downs will also be translatable. Additionally, the columns will have max-widths to prevent long single words from forcing them to be too wide.

Another improvement is that henceforth, when a product has worldwide shipping, the confusing international shipping text will no longer appear below it. The issue with the international formatting of Bitcoin prices defaulting to 2 decimal places has been fixed, so now Bitcoin prices will always show 8 decimal places, with trailing zeroes truncated.

Chris Pacia , Lead Backend Developer at OpenBazaar, tells Cointelegraph that more updates are expected to follow as there are still areas that the company would like to improve upon. He explains that the goal is to maintain the quality which is expected from e-commerce websites.

He says: “The latest release was mostly just bug fixes. Going forward, most of the releases in the 1.0 application are likely to just contain bug fixes. The major changes we are currently working on will be in the 2.0 series which will hopefully be out later this year.” Notifications and other improvements

Other bug fixes and changes claimed in the announcement include: Multiple bugs were fixed in the transactions view. Sorting will work much better now.

The dotted line around the user page now appears correctly and is sized right when customizing the user page.
