The v7.8 updater is now the Stability Release and the v7.9 the Advanced Release. Please only update to v7.9 if you require specific features of this release as bug and security fixes will continue to be added to the Stability Release.

If you wish to push one particular product you can do so with the new "UpSell" feature. When using this, the product you choose will be presented to the customer in the Soft Cart after the customer clicks continue. To enable the UpSell feature just add these parameters to your vsadmin/includes.asp/php file...

' ASP
softcartupsell="testproduct"
softcartupsellheader="Also Add an Optional Header!"
// PHP
$softcartupsell="testproduct";
$softcartupsellheader="Also Add an Optional Header!";

If the customer already has the UpSell item in their shopping cart it will not be presented again to them.

====================================================

You can dump and re-import the product options that are defined in the shopping cart. Filters will be applied if you choose this option.

====================================================

You can alter the subject of the notification email for new account signups with the following parameter. Also, the "%name%" modifier will be replaced with the customer name if used.

' ASP
newaccountsubject="New Customer Signup for %name%"
// PHP
$newaccountsubject="New Customer Signup for %name%";

====================================================

You can now send an "Account Approved" email to a Customer Account and this email can be set up and edited in the Email Messages admin page. To send the email just go to the client login admin page and click on the customer account, then press the "Send Account Approval Email" button.

====================================================

Product filters that were missing from the search when dumping the Filtered Product Inventory are now applied.

====================================================

There are some changes to PayPal Checkout to better handle the 3DS challenge / response system if it applies to a transaction.

====================================================

The Extra Client Login fields can now have custom HTML in the same way as the other Extra Checkout and Extra Order fields by using the parameters

extraclientfield1html / $extraclientfield1html

extraclientfield2html / $extraclientfield2html

====================================================

Google reCAPTCHA will now be loaded asynchronously making loading more efficient for your web pages.

====================================================

If an email address is included in the "bad_emails" array then no emails, including Order, Contact Us, Email Friend are sent as well as blocking checkout.

The icons in the Mini CSS Widget can all be replaced by using these parameters...

imgrecentview / $imgrecentview
imgminipadlock / $imgminipadlock
imgminicart / $imgminicart

The value that you set in the parameter will be reproduced on the page fully allowing you to specify anything such as Font Awesome glyphs. However if you wish to use an image then this means you need to add the full <img> tag, including the src attribute. For example...

imgrecentview="<img src=""images/your_recentview.png"" alt=""Recent View"">" ' ASP
$imgrecentview='<img src="images/your_recentview.png" alt="Recent View">'; // PHP

====================================================

You can include the average rating and the number of ratings before and after the ratings stars with the following parameter...

includeratingstats=TRUE
$includeratingstats=TRUE;

Basic formatting is provided but you may wish to add additional CSS to your site style sheet to display these stats as you prefer.

====================================================

There is a new formatting option for the product detail layout parameter (detailpagelayout) which is...

percentofflistprice

This will display the amount you save when deducted from the list price.

====================================================

You can use your own Geolocation service in the Orders Admin page by setting the URL for GeoLocating the IP address using this parameter...
geolocationurl / $geolocationurl

====================================================

Sofort has been removed from the payment possibilities for PayPal Checkout and Stripe as it has now been taken over by Klarna and doesn't exist in it's own right.

====================================================

If you are testing and want to remove the "flood control" message to perform more tests you can do so in the IP Blocking page.

====================================================

JQuery has been updated and is now included in the admin making local testing easier if not connected to the internet.
