Web Store Going Offline

[w3bz]

We'll be carrying out a store update shortly so the store won't be accessible during this time.

Will let you know when it's back up!

[BPP]

might be connected - when going to the homepage (site, not forum) getting a pop-up saying

A user name and password are being requested by http://shop.2000adonline.com. The site says: "Restricted Area"

despite not being ON / LOOKING TO GO TO the shop.

[w3bz]

Yeah we're blocking public access currently while we test it all out

[BPP]

Dang, you mean my chance to install a Richard Prior / Superman III 'One of Everything to me' type routine has been nixed??

Cruses.

[w3bz]

Well...I won't speak to soon on that one...

Sneaky customers!

[w3bz]

Store is now back online

Fingers crossed it's all shiny and working how it should be!

Ooo hello:

Where's the digital section gone?

Another improvement in your convenience circuitry the digital section has been removed and integrated throughout the store. Now, when the digital icon shows in either the product listing or on the product details page, you can add a digital copy. Additionally, once purchased, digital downloads are available in the account section once logged in! Be sure to check out the new Digital Graphic Novels that are starting to appear on the store at an introductory price of £4.99, as well as 2000 AD Progs, Judge Dredd Megazines and Extreme Editions!

That is quite handy having the digital and print editions in the same listings as it means you only need one link and people can chose what they want. Would it then be possible to have out-of-print trades back as digital ones?

And the digital trades?

Could I put in a request for a digital TPO if it was possible to have the text searchable? It'd be a great resource.

Will there be an official announcement on this or is that it?

[w3bz]

Yeah Mr Molcher was very keen to do a press release, or something more official so I'm sure that will happen Monday along with some other updates happening We just wanted to get it live and sorted so people can test it out over the weekend. We kinda broke the rule of "Never launch on a Friday" but I'll be about if anything goes tits up (fingers crossed it won't although I noticed a caching issue I'll resolve this evening).

Did you mean "could we have the out of stock trades as digital"? If so then I imagine that's on the cards for sure. There are gonna be some more Monday I'm hoping

Also, the little store widget you had is showing missing images, top and bottom. They are:

Super.

Although this does raise the question: What does Tharg make you droids do at the weekend? I don't think I want to know the answer

Yes either out-of-stock or out-of-print, because digital is forever

Ah drokit...can't do much about that until Monday although I wanted to update those to something more shiny soon...

Go into standby, they won't let us sleep...just in case...

Yes either out-of-stock or out-of-print, because digital is forever

Cool well like I said, I'm sure it's on the list, but the higher power have their own agenda when it comes to prioritising which get done first

Digital trades have started?!? *rushes off to order them ALL right now!*

[DrJomster]

Might just be me but they look a little hard to find... Would it be possible to list and link to all the digital GN releases in one place?

[w3bz]

They are indeed, and yes I need to do one, it's all about time people! ...that's time, people...as opposed to futuristic space travellers.

Those ominous words -- "Exciting news, Earthlets..." -- can only mean one thing.  "Your favourite comics are joining forces!"

I look forward to reading next week's issue of "2000AD and Beano" (yes, I know the Beano is published by D.C. Thompson, but there aren't many other comics left!)
