Update highlights

This version is a large upgrade with multiple new features and changes, many of which were requested by our community 🎉

The biggest new feature is Order generation / edit in the AdminCP. You're now able to edit Pending orders and add products to a user's cart, change pricing tiers and licenses for digital products' renewal orders. You can also generate a new order either manually or by adding all non-Lifetime licenses to a user's cart, or only add already expired licenses to their cart. You no longer have to ask users "could you please add these products to cart and then I'll add a coupon"!

The user experience (UX) for purchasing has also been improved in a number of ways. Firstly, there's now a "Checkout" button in the purchase overlay, which means fewer clicks if your customers are only interested in purchasing a single product. Secondly, sale information is now also shown on the product overview page, with both the "Sale" banner and the green pricing colour in the Pricing Information box. Lastly, the checkout page has received some back-end changes to ensure required license fields are saved whenever any action is taken; customers no longer need to manually save only those fields before they can do anything else.

Other than that, minor features, changes and features have been added to improve the overall experience. Please see the changelog for the full list of changes.

Update highlights

This version addresses a shortcoming in the User Criteria integration, where it was only possible to check for orders that were "Awaiting payment" but not "Pending. The difference is; an order "Awaiting payment" is where the payment process started but was aborted, whereas a "Pending" order did not even start the payment process.

This version adds a major new feature; quantity support for physical products. When adding the same product variant to cart, it'll also merge into the existing order item, making bulk orders easier than ever.

Another important change in this version is an update to support the new API for fetching the list of countries. You now require a (free) API key in order to fetch this data, added via the new setting.

Lastly, a few bugs have been fixed.

Update highlights

The most important part of this release is: This product now requires PHP 7.3. This is a requirement set by one of the most important 3rd party libraries used by eCommerce, so it's entirely outside of our control. This library has had an important update that needed to be included in a release prior to Jan 1st 2021.

Please be aware that if you are not able to update to PHP 7.4 yourself, you should contact your web host and ask them to assist you with upgrading.
PHP 7.2 has been officially declared end-of-life and no longer receives security updates. Continuing to run PHP 7.2 may expose your website to unpatched security vulnerabilities or exploits.

The U.K. will no longer be classed as an EU country as of Jan 1st 2021, and its sales tax rate will no longer be automatically updated past that date.

This version also improves database query performance of the release / download lists in the front-end, meaning the functionality will scale better when you have a lot of releases available.


Complete Change Log

Change: Multiple performance improvements for download/release list in the front-end (Thanks @Xon)
Change: Updated PHP version requirement to 7.3
Change: The UK will no longer be listed as an EU country as of Jan 1st 2021
Fix: Fix potential server error during checkout
Update highlights

This version fixes an issue where physical products being checked out as guests could generate a server error when the payment notification was returned from the payment processor.

Fix: Fix guest checkout of physical products causing a server error
Update highlights

This version adds support for og:image / twitter:image meta tags for product URLs, making your rich embeds in places like Twitter or Discord show the product's icon.

Furthermore, some internal code tweaks took place, for improved support for Xon's MultiPrefix.

Note: If you are running Xon's MultiPrefix, please update to v2.8.14.
