A quick note to let the community know whats going on.

After 8 months of hard work, and lots of secrecy, Chain Reaction Ecommerce, Inc. have released not only the next step in CRE Loaded product evolution, but an important solution for our merchants that take credit cards.

CRE Loaded has been updated to be PCI PA-DSS compliant software.

We have achieved this in no small part by creating a new Hosted Payment Page service that works with 80% of existing merchant service accounts in the US. This new service called CRE Secure solves two problems...

1. It solves PCI like many other hosted payment pages because it takes the Credit Card handling away from your site.

2. Because hosted payment pages bring their own problems, namely appearance, and distracting logins and other branding, CRE Secure page uses HTML Clone to mimic your sites exact look and feel, and sends them back to your checkout_process on successful transaction.

Learn more about it at www.cresecure.com

Also you may have noticed some problems on the forums. Sorry about that we are working to convert them up to our new powerful community site. We hope to have that done by tomorrow.

Thank you all for your support of CRE Loaded, without this community we would not be in the position to solve this problem for our merchants.

I will be posting more and answering your PCI questions in the days to come. Now back to the release and community forum conversion.

I was kinda hoping you guys would finaly fix some of the validation problems.



these are pretty basic html and i have to fix this along with other issues with each and ever patch. I do see that you fixed some of these html errors. Along with some basic h1 which is a step foward for seo. But pages should validate.


If you guys need any help with html let me know. I am more than happy to help.

And i really hope you get away from phpbb. vbb or inv are so much easer to admin and are so much lighter on the server.
