Blōwan - to flourish, prosper

Blōwan Quickstart & Jomres 10.7 released

This is a parallel release of both the newest Quickstart, and Jomres 10.7.0

I'm not going to go into any great detail about Jomres 10.7.0. Most of the changes have already been discussed in the Nearing Completion and Testing blog posts.

The changes are some of the biggest changes to Jomres functionality in some years and extend it's power quite considerably. If you're looking for a system that gives you unrivalled flexibility when creating portals for booking things online, I encourage you to give those posts a look. The Site Designer's Guide has been updated too to reflect the changes.

The Quickstart is called Blōwan. It comes built on Helix Ultimate. There is a comprehensive Getting started with Blowan guide here.

Jomres 9.21.0 released

Jomres 9.21.0 released with No Show handling, massive microdata schema update and more.

18/11/2019

New functionality : No Shows

The Nightly has been updated with new functionality that allows you to view a guest or potential guest's basic booking history across the Syndicate Network. In short, when a booking is created and if it is marked as No Show (another new flag for bookings) on ANY server in the network then the App server keeps an anonymised record of that. When you view the View Reservation details page, if this guest has booked within the JSN previously then a record of the number of bookings and the number of times their bookings have been flagged as No Shows will appear. This helps you to make informed decisions as to whether or not the guest is a No Show risk. To prevent abuse this particular feature is only available to installations with valid licenses, I'm afraid, however any installation can report a guest as a No Show. The guest's personal information is not stored on the App server, instead their email address is encrypted using one-way encryption.

04/11/2019

Jomres 9.20.0 released

9.20.0 has been released with new Guest Profile functionality plus some fixes for Wordpress that came to my attention today. Have a spooky night!

The Core Stripe gateway has been updated, uses new Payment Intents technology from Stripe and is Strong Customer Authentication ready. Note, I found that the Lastpass Firefox extension was causing Content Security Policy issues during testing and dev. If you notice problems when entering the creditcard number (e.g. you don't get an additional authentication popup) and you use that plugin, please disable it for the duration of testing.

12/09/2019

Jomres 9.18.0 released

This new version primarily introduces package handling for Jomres which makes the Core system smaller, plus big updates to the French language files (thanks Stephane). As always, please ensure that you have created a full site backup before updating any plugins, including Jomres.

27/02/2019

9.16.1 has been released

9.16.1 has been released. This fixes an important bug that was causing invoices to fail to be created and therefore bookings not taken. It also adds some room surcharge output to various templates including in the booking form.

18/01/2019

9.16.0 has been released

9.16.0 has been released. This brings several new features 1. Popups in the booking form to make the form status messages easier to read. 2. Auto login guests who have had new accounts created for them when booking. This allows them to more seamlessly make a subsequent booking without needing to login after making the first booking. 3. Property managers can create custom invoice numbers, meaning that consequtive invoice numbers can exist for properties, and have their own format. 4. Surcharges for individual rooms. This allows property managers to say that a specific room costs X extra because, for example, it's a penthouse suite or it has a particular amenity. Feature can be configured in the Edit Room page (Micromanage and Advanced tariff editing modes). This prevents the need for site managers to need to create new room types for edge-case properties.

15/01/2019

Jintour plugin updated

Added image uploading for tour profiles, and modernised how tours are displayed in the booking form, adjusting output so that it is constructed from a template file. Images can only be uploaded for tour profiles that have tours generated after this update due to a table change.

This allows you to create a set of notes that are specific to individual properties, for example keyholder details etc. It also offers a widget for displaying those notes in the frontend Control Panel. Menu option is called Private Notes and can be viewed under the Dashboard menu dropdown.

14/11/2018

New manual article

There is a new article in the manual, aimed at developers who want to use the Jomres framework. It details both including the Jomres framework, so that you can make use of existing functionality, and also how to decrypt and encrypt guest and manager data.

07/11/2018

Jomres 9.11.1 released

Includes tweaks for users who are having problems with mod_security & beds24 deferred messages, lat/long settings being mangled by csv hijacking hardening, and a slightly less intrusive GDPR consent process.

30/05/2018

Jomres 9.11.0 released

As this version contains significant changes to how manager and guest details are stored, I strongly advise you to make sure that you have a backup of your site, and ideally that you test the update on a staging/development server before applying it to your life site(s).

21/05/2018

License numbers for old licenses changed

I have been doing some maintenance on the license server. As a result, those of you with older license keys might be getting license incorrect messages in the admin area of your Jomres installations. If you do see that, please log into your account on Jomres.net and use the key that you can find on your licenses page, it may have changed slightly and you'll need to use the new key. This only affects licenses that are older than about 5 years old.

In this version, to continue to use your Jomres installation you *must* install the Plugin Manager when prompted to in the Jomres Control Panel.

This results in a significant performance boost for these classes of licenses.

Joomla 3.6.3 warning

Joomla 3.6.3 has been released, and some of our users are reporting problems on Leohtian based templates. Joomla have made some changes to how modules are handled and this seems to be impacting some installations. If you have a pre-Joomla 3.6.3 installation that you'd like to upgrade we would recommend that you first test a copy of that site on a development server and see if upgrading works for you before upgrading the live server. Given that Joomla 3.6.4 will be released Tuesday 25th October, and it will be a security release, we'd strongly advise your to test you upgrades as soon as possible.

ABOUT US

Developed and maintained by Vince Wooll, Jomres was initially conceived in early 2005 as a Mambo based solution to a client’s hotel management needs. While it wasn't originally expected to be an online booking system it quickly morphed into one as users requested more and more features.

As the number of feature requests grew Vince knew that he would need to dedicate more time to the project and in July 2005 Jomres was released as a commercial project. Since then Jomres has become the world's oldest online booking plugin for any PHP CMS. It has been used in Joomla 1.0, 1.5, 2.5, 3 & 4 and WordPress 4, 5 & 6.

Aladar joined the project in 2010 after using Jomres for his own projects. He was active on the forum, helping other members of the community and eventually Vince invited him to join the team. Between 2010 and 2018 he was an integral part of the project and made many significant contributions.

Whilst not formally part of the Jomres project, Rodrigo Rocco and Vince have become firm friends. Rod is a freelancer who specialises in doing custom work for Jomres users and developing custom plugins for the system that take advantage of it's modular design. He has built many useful extensions including his fabulous Valentina Template Override Package.
