The v7.8.2 updater is now available for ASP / PHP.
The following changes have been made...
Please note that you can upgrade from any previous version to the latest version in just one go! You don't have to install all updaters between your version and the current version.https://www.ecommercetemplates.com/updaters.aspGoogle Pay and Apple Pay can now be used in conjunction with PayPal Checkout. For more details about how to enable these payment methods please see the PayPal Checkout setup instructions here...
https://www.ecommercetemplates.com/help/ecommplus/paypal-checkout.aspPayPal Checkout Advanced Cards can now be completely white labelled. This means you can remove all PayPal buttons and branding if required, just leaving the card entry on your checkout page. You can of course still use Advanced Cards in conjunction with PayPal buttons, Google and Apple Pay, VENMO and local payment methods like iDEAL for customers in the Netherlands.
The vsadmin/inc/metainfo.asp and vsadmin/inc/metainfo.php files will now populate parameters that can be used for Canonical URLs, such as:
canonicalurl / $canonicalurl // The Product Detail page Canonical URL
canonicalurlcats / $canonicalurlcats // The Categories page Canonical URL
canonicalurlprods / $canonicalurlprods // The Products page Canonical URL
Using this parameter you can set a Canonical Tag in the Head section of your page as follows (example for the Product Detail Page)...
<link rel="canonical" href="<%=canonicalurl%>"> ' ASP Version
<link rel="canonical" href="<?php print @$canonicalurl?>"> // PHP Version
You need to use the canonicalurlcats parameter on your categories pages and canonicalurlprods on your products pages.
You can now set a Custom Product Search on a page with the parameter, customproductsearch / $customproductsearch. This can be a very powerful tool for creating custom product display pages but a simple example would be something like setting the parameter to:
customproductsearch="pID LIKE 'XYZ%'"
$customproductsearch="pID LIKE 'XYZ%'";
And in this case you would display all the products where the product id starts with, "XYZ"
You can also now set a custom sort order for your products with the parameter, customsortby / $customsortby and this can be used in any way you like, but one example would be to sort the products by one of your Custom Product Columns. For example:
customsortby="pCustom2 DESC"
$customsortby="pCustom2 DESC";
The Braintree integration has been updated.
An important error has been fixed for PayPal Checkout where in some cases the 3DS Challenge window could be covered which would not allow the customer to complete the authentication.
There are more display options on the ECT Admin -> Products page so you can display products which do or do not have the sell button set, and can list products where the category the product belongs to has been deleted.
Google Pay and Apple Pay problems have been resolved when using them in conjunction with the Square payment processor.
Provincial / HST tax is now displayed in the first checkout page for Canadian merchants.
There are some important fixes for the automatically generated categories menu when using the parameter menucategoriesatroot / $menucategoriesatroot.
Custom tags in product and detail page layouts will now respect the case of the content.
When updating the Product ID using the Quick Entry feature the product images were not automatically changed to the new ID and this has now been fixed.
