  • Enhanced Returns Process
    We've changed the returns process to prompt users to select a reason and provide a comment about why they are requesting a return.
    When a user requests a return they are now prompted to select which products, as well as selecting from a list of return reasons (editable in Admin > Return Reasons) and an optional comment field. This is emailed to the site admin(s) and recorded against the returned order lines.
  • Product Feed ID Lookup
    While working Google Merchant Center you may notice IDs for products are different from the website due to options spinning up different versions of the product. Our new report lets you cross-reference against the Google ID to find the product on your site.
    Reports > Product Feed ID Lookup
  • Order Manager minor style tweaks
    As part of continuously our Order Manager interface we've made some minor improvements to the display of codes & prices to prevent breaking these onto new lines as well as several other minor tweaks.
  • Coupon sorting
    Track down coupons more easily in Coupon Manager via: Admin > Coupon Manager > new "Sort By" option to top right offering: Latest, Name, Code, Start Date & Expiry Date sorting.
  • "Users making purchases" report improvements
    Two new columns added: "count_of_items" & "days_since_last_order". This helps you identify customers based on purchase histories.
    For example, the item count can help you understand whether your cross- and up-sell promotions are effective; 'Days since last order' helps you identify customers who have stopped buying from you that you want to chase up.
  • Added delivery cost template keys for Purchase Invoices 
    The purchase order templates can now contain delivery information such as cost price, available in the template with {{ dump(order.delivery_cost) }}

  • New module field type for "large text" 
    We now offer a new field type on modules letting you add larger amounts of text content for when an editor interface isn't appropriate. 
  • New content block type "page-url"
    This allows admin(s) to select a page in Page Manager so that the result of the content block will be the page url string.
  • Module Import Ignore Existing Files
    When importing modules, previously it would error if the folder for the module already existed, e.g. if you imported templates from another site and then tried to import it's modules.
    You now have flexibility over this, by default it will skip adding the folder if it already exists or you can tick to override the folder.
  • Updated Modernizr to include CSS Grid
