This version fixes a bug introduced if you upgrade to WordPress v.3.3+, and a small feature update.

• Date/Time: The date/time feature stopped working in WordPress 3.3 because the built-in functions clashed with ours. We’ve updated our code to be compatible with the update.
• Re-bidding: This scenario played out when a user placed a bid, in an auction embedded in a Post/Page, and instead of clicking the refresh icon they would just refresh the page. This caused multiple bids to be placed by the same person and would at times drive up their current bid, a particular problem when the “Proxy Bidding” setting was used.
  The update now fixes the above scenario by stating a duplicate bid has been detected by the same user (in the context above) and will reject the re-bid. However, a user is still free to place an extra bid that exceeds their earlier Maximum Bid placed.

As always, we recommend you to upgrade via FTP. You can find more instructions for upgrading on our documentation.

Current Version: 4.1.3

Status: Non-critical for WordPress 3.2 and under, Critical for WordPress 3.3 and over.
