This release focuses on incorporating member feedback and suggestions, along with critical bug fixes.
Brief periods of downtime are expected on sites as the updates are performed.
Feature Updates:
PayPal: To ensure eligibility for seller protection, PayPal orders will now include a shipping address. Shipped orders will include the customer's shipping address, while pickup orders will show the store or pickup location address. Gift registry orders where the owner of the registry opted for privacy will not display any address.
PirateShip & Stamps.com: Tracking number import now features improved file validation with clearer error and warning messages. Stores can now trigger shipment notification emails and fulfill orders simultaneously when updating tracking numbers.
Gift Registry & Wishlists: We've addressed several member suggestions for these features in this release, with more updates planned for November.
Gift Registry:
- The suffix "Gift Registry" has been removed from gift registry names, making it more versatile for other uses (e.g., teacher lists, book fairs).
- Store staff with "Manage Orders" roles can now manage gift registries, including viewing and downloading them.
- A link to the gift registry will appear below the order item title for items purchased from a gift registry.
- Tier 1 sites will no longer see any reference to Gift Registry, as this remains a Tier 2 feature.
Wishlists:
- Store staff with "Manage Orders" roles can now manage wishlists, including viewing and downloading them.
- Wishlist items can now be downloaded as a CSV file, a feature previously exclusive to gift registries.
- A link to the wishlist will appear below the order item title for items purchased from a wishlist.
Bug Fixes:
- Books marked as "Not For Sale" or "Removed from the website" will now consistently maintain that status. Previously, these books occasionally became available for sale if not visited for a couple of months.
- The "Catalog Sales Tracking Report" will now correctly filter by "Catalog Category."
- iMRCHNT Gift Card: The "white page error" that customers encountered when redeeming a gift card during checkout has been resolved. Customers can now successfully use gift cards for online orders, with real-time redemption at checkout.
