There's now support in the Promo handling mechanism for Promoing tickets by Season Number, Production number and Title Number.

There’s a new configuration key “CONFIRMATION_EMAIL_ORDERCONTRB_ADDL” . Default is empty. If it’s length is > 0 and the HTML template contains the placeholder “%%ORDERCONTRB_ADDL%%”, that placeholder will be substituted with the TEXT of the configuration. (The only other “gotcha” is that if the configuration values doesn’t seem to have any HTML, it’ll be “wrapped” in paragraph tags… i.e. <p>configtext</p>)

SYOS has been enhanced to support displaying different zones with differently colored seat dots. This option does require a little maintenance time to integrate this into the sites, but this should be a relatively quick (probably less than 1 hr.) The order of zones follows the Prices's RANK field.

Along a similar vein, SYOS version 3 is in the works and should be available in late June. This version will consolidate the pricing tab and seat selection tab to a single panel. The interface will also be changed with respect to handling mouse-overs vs. clicks. This change will facilitate Digitalwork SYOS on iPad devices. (A separate version of SYOS for iPhone and other mobile browsers may come separately later.)

There are a number of hidden gems in the Digitalwork Library's utility area, often simply refered to as the "Configuration Manager." Many of these utilities are linked to from the menu options in the gray navigation area on the left. Most are protected via passwords and logins, to prevent any unauthorized access or changes.

One that *isn't* is the Session Dump, found at /utils/session.aspx (from the root of your site.)

This isn't really useful in the management of the site. But, it can be invaluable when trying to determine why things are happening as they are. For nearly any user on the site, you can get a snapshot of the most important details of their session. It's displayed in an XML representation, so if you've had no experience looking at XML, it'll look like a lot of code. But, if you put your thinking cap on, you'll see that there a wealth of data displayed there... mostly in a plain-text readable format.

So if you're helping debug a problem on the site, I'll find it helpful to get a copy of this information. So simply copy and paste the data on this page and email it to me.

Implemented new fields in the LineItem and PackageLineItem classes from data being returned from Tessitura GetCart method. Changed FlexPackage cart formatting: when seated, shows seats after each performance item instead of being grouped at the top, though fixed-seat packages will continue to display.

Relocated code that created CART_SUMMARY cookie from the ajaxhandler to be a static method in the CartSummary class, so that the same code can be called from various places without having to copy.
