The v4.9.0 updater is now available for ASP.
The following changes have been made...
New security features
As well as code changes and improvements you can also set the following parameter to disable login to the vsadmin directory...
disallowlogin=TRUE
This means that you can disable the vsadmin directory and create a copy in a directory with your choice of name that hackers will never know exists.
Setting the following parameter will inform you of login attempts to your store by email.
notifyloginattempt=TRUE
Shipping estimator on the first checkout page.
To turn this on you need to set . . .
estimateshipping=TRUE
There is also this parameter you can set if you are using a shipping method like weight based or price based shipping where the ship state is necessary . . .
defaultshipstate="California"
Please note, this is not necessary for UPS / USPS / Canada Post shipping as it is the zip / postal code that is used.
Allow for editing of the order details on the orders admin page.
When you use this feature, you will see a little button with [...] next to the product id. After entering a product id click this button and the system will automatically retrieve all the product details, prices and product options from the server.
Ability to add Address Line 2 / remove state dropdown menu / remove "out of state" box where applicable.
To enable the use of an "Address Line 2" entry on the checkout form, use the following switch in the includes.asp file . . .
useaddressline2=TRUE
If on the states admin page no states are selected the "states" dropdown is not included on the checkout form.
If on the countries admin page there are no non "Home Countries" then the "Out Of State" text entry is not included on the checkout form.
The ability to allow the customer to switch between different shipping carriers at checkout.
These switches are available for the vsadmin/includes.asp file to enable this . . .
alternateratesups="UPS Rates"
alternateratesusps="USPS Rates"
alternateratesweightbased="Weight Based"
alternateratescanadapost="Canada Post"
Please note, then above text can be anything you like and will be included in the shipping selector dropdown from which your customers can choose the shipping type.
Ability for product options to alter product id's for products, or alternatively to alter the download filename if used in conjunction with the digital downloads plugin.
On the product options admin page you will now see an option for "Alt Prod ID". This can simply be a substitute product id, for instance if the product id is "product1", the you can enter "product2" for the Alt Prod ID if you require this product option to change the product id to "product2".
IMPORTANT NOTE: Please note that the substitute product id must exist in the databse. You must create it as normal on the product admin page, and if you don't want it to show separately uncheck the "Display Product" checkbox.
Advanced changes can also be made with the Alt Prod ID. Any instance of %s will be replaced with the original product id. For instance if the Alt ID is "%s_red" and the original id is "product1" then the result would be "product1_red". This is very useful when applying the same change to multiple products.
Another advanced feature is "search and replace" in the product id. If you have a space in the Alt Prod ID, anything to the left will be searched for in the product id, and replace with whatever is to the right of the space. An example would be an Alt ID of "MARKER red" and a product id of "product_MARKER_42" which would yield "product_red_42". This can be very useful when dealing with multiple options that all modify the product id.
Weight / Price based shipping methods can be disabled at a given weight / price.
On the postal zones admin page, just enter an "x" at the point where a given shipping method ceases to be available.
Limit certain payment methods to logged in customers if required
Just select from the "Login Level" dropdown.
Sales statistics page.
Sales statistics are shown by clicking the "Stats" button in the power search box. Sales stats are shown by time range selected for order totals, products sold and country.
Handling added to the orders and order detail CSV file.
