MMEX Help Needs Updating

Post by Daddy Peacebucks »

I recently upgraded to MMEX v1.2.7 and noticed that the (English) help screens are way out of date. First of all, the help says that it is for v1.2.0. Yet account reallocation (introduced in v1.1.1) and Credit Card account types (introduced in v1.2.0) are completely missing from the help. There may be other topics that need inclusion and/or updating, but the above two features are ones that I recently encountered, and noticed that they weren't mentioned in the help.

I wish I could offer my time to assist in updating the help, but I'm currently overloaded with family and work issues (I know, almost all of us have this problem!). However, I wanted to at least point out the need for someone to update the help to reflect the recent changes (at least those up to v1.2.0, so that the text actually reflects the version mentioned).

UPDATE: I just noticed in the changelog screen (http://www.moneymanagerex.org/development/changelog) that version 1.2.7 says "Fix: Help files updated" (yet mine are not). I am running the portable 64 bit (Windows) version, did the help update not get included in that version?

That page still treats credit cards as a Checking account type, doesn't mention either the newer Credit Card or Cash account types, and doesn't mention reallocation of accounts at all. Some other things may be updated, but the items I mentioned in my OP are still the same.

Also (while this could be meaningless) the copyright of the page is 2005-2009, so I'm wondering how updated it really is.
