Webawy Main Features Details

These are just a few of the main features only of the Webawy software. The software has hundreds of features which can not be listed here.

SQL database driven 100%

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 Auctionawy 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.

Turbo FastCGI Enabled

The Fast Common Gateway Interface (FastCGI) is an enhancement to the existing CGI (Common Gateway Interface). This feature allows the software to run as a server. The goal of Fast CGI feature is to load the program once, and iterate in a loop for every request. Instead of creating a new process for each request, FastCGI feature uses persistent processes to handle a series of requests. Each individual FastCGI process can handle many requests over its lifetime, thereby avoiding the overhead of per-request process creation and termination. To use this feature, your server must have FastCGI modules installed. For Apache servers, this is done by installing apache module mod_fcgid and Perl Module FCGI. This feature makes the software faster by a factor of 5 to 15 times depending on each page actions.

How The FastCGI Works Exactlly
When a user requests a page for the first time, say the home page or any other page of the software, the server creates a process and runs the software normal at the normal speed then sends the response to the user browser. After that, the server does not exit the process or finishes the program, it keeps the program running as a process in the background.

Now when a user requests any page again or the same page, the server does not need to create a process and reload the program again, it has the program already running in a process and waiting for a request to serve, the server just send the request to the process running in memory and serves the request on the fly. This process is repeated for all subsequent requests.

If the server does not receive requests for pre set time period, it ends the process in memory to save resources, these are server settings.

To check if your server has FCGI modules installed click here or email us your FTP information and we will test it for you.
 

Android Client Application

This is an android application with small size less than 300K that your site users can download from your site direct or using a QR scanner on their mobile/tablet and install it on their mobile or tablet and allow them with one touch to access your site and Login automatically to their account. It is a complete custom built web browser for our Auction/Webawy only. This is a standalone application that is sold separately and will be custom built for every Webawy/Auctionawy customer. You will provide us with your Logo and your desired application name and we will build a custom version for you.

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.

Proxy bidding system

The software has built in proxy (automatic) bidding system. 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.

Fixed Price Support

The software supports the fixed price items plus the regular auctions items. Fixed price items will have a buy now buttons only for speedy purchases or checkouts.

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.

Auto Extend - Anti-Snipper

Auto Extend feature which allows the auction closing to be delayed if there is any last minute activity. The Auto Extend feature can really enhance the last minute auction frenzy that often occurs in auctions that have had little activity prior to closing, or any highly desirable auctions. The Auto Extend feature can be enabled/disabled by the seller at any time and also has an adjustable timeout window by the admin. It is used to help prevent users from bid sniping an auction by attempting to make a successful bid at the very last moment. The Auto Extend feature also allows an online auction to mimic the activity of a live physical auction by keeping the action going while bids are continuing to be received on the item.

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 you edit normal html pages. Not only 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

The administrator center has built in Visual html editor for online editing the templates. Also templates can be edited with any visual html editor like Frontpage or else.

Custom functions

The software has built in script editor in the admin center which allow you to write your own Perl, HTML, and JS functions and insert the output to the templates with the rest of the program output. Custom functions can use the current program templates as well as you can define new templates to be used. This means you can build new functions with its own templates.

  • Add, Delete subscribers

  • Add, delete lists

  • Send mass email to lists

  • Select mail format text, or html

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.

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.
