SQL databases are the most powerful database systems
until this moment that can handle several Gig bytes of information safely
with the highest search speed and information retrieval. Based on this
Mewsoft NetAuction built with all its databases using SQL.
This includes all the categories, mailing lists, accounts, users
information, websites information, feedback, statistics and any data used
by the software. This makes the software unlimited in its capacity and
speed which puts the software on the top in race with the well known big
auctions sites now
on the net. |
|
Unlimited Nested Categories |
The software has built in category manager in the admin
center which allows to create unlimited number of categories and
subcategories levels. Since the categories are stored also in SQL database
then its is unlimited practically. Each category and subcategory can be
configured separately for generating Meta Tags (title, description,
keywords), using templates, sort order, display under its parent category
as a teaser, html customizations, and more.
|
|
Multi - Lingual |
The software admin center has a language manager that
allows the administrator to create unlimited number of languages and translate any
language online or on your local PC in just a few minutes. The software by
default comes with the language English, any additional languages you need
just create it from the language manager and translate the text in
minutes. The software use all the languages available in real time which
allows the surfers and users to select which language they want and the
software will keep their preferences using cookies so they need to select
the language only the first time they visit the site. The language manager
will allow the administrator to create new languages, delete languages, edit languages text or search
languages for certain text.
|

The software will bid incrementally on the user's behalf up to their
maximum bid, which is kept secret from other others users. |

Dutch auctions support |
The software support Dutch Auctions (Multiple Item Auctions).
This auction format is perfect for sellers with many identical items to
sell. |
|
Reserve auctions support |
The software support reserve price auctions. A reserve
price is set by a seller who will not sell below a certain price. Bidders
know there's a reserve price, but they do not know what it is. A bidder
must meet or exceed the reserve price and have the highest bid in order to
win or buy the item. If no bidders meet the reserve price, neither the
seller nor the high bidder are under any further obligation. Reserve
prices can not be used for Dutch Auctions. |
|
Private auctions support |
Private auctions are used to protect the buyer's privacy.
Bidders' email addresses won't show up on the item or bidding history
pages. When the auction is over, only the seller will know who bought the
item. This option can't be used with Dutch Auctions. |

services like processing closed or ended auctions and billing. These only

|
HTML Template based |
One of the most powerful features of this software is its
use for pure html templates for every single byte generated by the
software. This means there is no limit on the customizations the same as

templates for the pages generated by the software but also for every form,
hyperlinks, any generated output, listings, navigations, and everything
the program prints to the output is customizable.
|
|
Visual html editor |

visual html editor like Frontpage or else. |
|
Custom functions |

|
|
Unlimited mailing lists |

each list. The admin center "Mail manager" has full utilities to
manage unlimited number of mailing lists and mass email:
|
|
Easy setup wizard |
The software is very easy to install and configure even
for just beginners. No need to be programmer or professional to run
or manage the software on your server, all you need is the general
internet stuff, like how to use any ftp program to transfer files, how to
change files permissions, very little html to customize the templates or
links to your look and feel. Just transfer the files to your server,
change permissions and you are done with the installation. The software
has built in setup and configuration wizard that will check and create
directories, permissions, SQL tables and more.
|
|
Intelligence upgrade system |
The software has built in very smart upgrade system.
The upgrade system will automatically connect to our server, transfers the
files you want to upgrade to your server, changes permissions, create
directories if needed, configure cgi files and do anything needed. This
means once the software installed the first time, all the upgrade will be
automatically without reinstalling or loosing any data from your current
database system, all you need to upgrade at any time online for free is a
license number you get from Mewsoft when you purchase the software, every
customer has a unique license number tied to its licensed domain name.
|
|
Very customizable |
The first thing you must search in any software is how
far is it customizable. Whatever its function if it is not 100%
customizable then it looses at least 80% of its value. Mewsoft search
engine software like all Mewsoft products is very customizable. There is
not single byte that is not customizable. Lets explain this shortly
The software uses html templates for the body of
the pages that generated. Inside these html templates are the output of
the cgi programs and the text itself.
Now the software is multi-lingual, which means the same
text should be in different languages and this is done by inserting
language variables inside the templates between "[[" and
"]]", for example a field form that has text label
"Please enter your first name" this has assigned a variable name
for example first_name, to insert this label in the template just
insert it like this [[first_name]]. When the surfer
selects specific language this variable will be translated from the
language selected. This shows that you can move this language variable
anywhere inside your template. The value of the language variables itself
you change it from the language file, so you edit it to anything you want.
Second, the cgi programs output is inserted inside
these html templates in two methods. The first method is by using Plugins
between comments like this , this will draw an
input text box for the surfer to enter the website title. of course you
move this Plugin anywhere inside your templates. The second method is
using what we called it Classes in the form
, this will draw a search box and
its width is 40 characters, the search box form itself is customized and
has its own template, you can change the box with by changing the number
40 to anything. So basically everything the program prints out is
customizable and you have full control over the look and feel. You can use
any WYSWYG html editor like Frontpage 2000 or else to edit the templates.
The admin center has built in html template editor online and Visual html
editor integrated. |
