Update 1.0.8

This update introduces Pusher integration, replacing the previous Ajax polling method for managing messaging notifications. You can now choose between Ajax or Pusher for this functionality. To implement Pusher for message notifications, consult the "Pusher Setup" section.

Regarding the Auction feature, proper functioning requires configuring CRON jobs on your hosting provider. Detailed instructions are available in the "CRON Setup" section. For a complete list of new features, please refer to the Changelog.
