Tech/Dev/Feature Updates
To improve the overall LUXY experience, the Development team has decided to integrate a more regular deployment of feature updates to migrate any changes as seamlessly as possible to maintain a high-level user experience.
Deployed upgrades:
- Integrate Binance Connect with Luxy
We have added a new payment solution to the marketplace: users can now add funds to their wallet directly with a credit card. For now, the only cryptocurrency supported is MATIC on the Polygon Network. This payment solution is with Binance Connect, the official Binance onramp solution for crypto. - Launchpad/Notifications — Add new notifications related to the user’s drop
Added new notifications for users related to their drops. Now you can select to receive notifications about your application to the launchpad and feedback from our admin team. - Add support for buying NFTs with a Credit Card
This new feature allows users to buy NFTs listed for sale directly with their credit cards. This is our last payment integration scheduled for 2022, and it’s once again with Wert! Currently, there is support for purchases in MATIC on Polygon, with more to come next year. Keep an eye on our socials for an exclusive article about this brand-new integration! - Add support for minting NFTs with Credit Card
This new addition supports the P24 Fender Benders Collection launch, allowing our users to mint new NFTs directly with a credit card. In future, this feature will be integrated with other launches! - Add support for identifying real-life prizes attached to NFTs
This feature allows users to check if the NFT they minted has a real-life prize associated with it. Initially, this feature is being used for the P24 Fender Benders Collection, and in future, it will be present in other Collections. - Update the “Meet the Team” section on luxy.io
We updated our “Meet the Team” section on our website with new and current team members who work behind the scenes for Luxy! You can check the changes here! - Deployment of the Luxy Smart Contracts in new blockchains’ test networks This work kicks off the integration of new blockchains into Luxy.
- Launchpad/Drop — Add an option to enlarge images on the artwork preview upon clicking
Added an option for users to click on the images of the artwork preview to enlarge the images on both the desktop and the mobile version of the marketplace. - DevOps — Improve our deployment process
Reviewed and improved our deployment process on the frontend codebase, speeding up the release of new features. - DevOps — Updates to our monitoring system
We deployed a few changes to our internal monitoring system that aggregates the logs of all services that make the Luxy Marketplace work as you know it! These changes make the system more reliable, and it now tracks the newest addition to our services: The Notification Centre! - Backend refactors
Continue the backend refactor work, targeting speed, reliability, and a faster development cycle. - Update our test environments, removing outdated test collections and NFTs
This change aims to speed up our testing cycle and have our test environment more closely match our production environment. - Fixes to “The Drop” pages
We deployed several minor fixes to the “The Drop” pages, such as updating the order of items shown first for the user on the artwork preview carousel, fixing the number of decimal places in the minting price information, and a couple of wording changes to make the information clearer for our users.
Further to these updates, the development team regularly solves both internal and community-raised issues and bugs, striving to streamline and continuously improve the user experience. Recent Bug fixes are outlined below:
Bug fixes:
- Bug — total_supply value from drops not updating after the NFTs are minted
Fixed a bug where the number of NFTs minted from a drop was not updating correctly in our databases. - Bug — Collections added on the admin panel are not indexing properly
Fixed a bug where some collections were not indexed properly in our databases. We changed our indexing services during the fix to have the load divided into batches processed in parallel, improving the overall service. - Bug — Whitelist card on Drops showing NaN values
Fixed a bug where the values on the “Whitelist” card on a Drop page were not compiling correctly and showing “NaN” instead of accurate information. - Bug — Launchpad — Price of mint not updating after we add the contract Fixed a bug where the minting price of a new collection was not updating on the cards present on the “All Drops” page in cases where the minting price set in the contract was different to the price added by the user on the Launchpad’s Application form.
- Bug — Launchpad — Collection page being created before we have any NFTs minted
Fixed a bug where the “About”, “Collection”, and “Activity” tabs on the Collection page were created from a “Drop” before we had any NFTs minted. - Bug — Review “add/logo image to collection” route
Fixed a potential security breach where some routes didn’t have the proper authentication configuration set. - Bug — Disable “Mint” button on the Drop page once the max supply is reached
Fixed a bug where the “Mint” button on a “Drop” page was still active, even after all the NFTs from a collection had been minted. - Bug — Fix the “Edit Royalties” function on the “Edit Permission” page from the collection owner
Fixed the “Edit Royalties” feature on a collection's “Edit Permission” page, which was throwing several errors. - Bug — Launchpad — Collection, About, and Activities tabs being created before they should be on Drops
Fixed a bug where the Collection, About, and Activities tabs were being created before we have any NFTs minted on a Drop, creating empty tabs and confusing our users. These tabs will be created only after the first NFT is minted in a Drop launch. - Bug — User missing a Syspunk NFT on their profile page
Fixed a bug where a Syspunk NFT was registered without an owner in our database, so it was not showing on the owner’s profile page. - Bug — Block contract address change after a drop is launched
Fixed a bug where a drop owner could change the contract address even after a collection was launched, creating problems in the application. - Bug — The collection page on mobile is misaligned and shows empty tabs
Fixed alignment problems in some screen sizes for the mobile version and another problem where the “The Drop” tab was present for all collections, not only the ones that came from the Launchpad. - Bug — The user is redirected to the app store instead of the Metamask wallet app
Fixed a bug where the user on mobile, when trying to connect to their Metamask wallet, was being redirected to the app store instead of the Metamask application, even if they have the application installed.
