6.0.1

• New Feature – Inventory can be filtered to one product and its variants.
• New Feature – Email settings: the logo in every email has its own width, height limit and left / center / right position.
• New Feature – Deleting an order or a product can be taken back: a bar above the list offers to put it, and everything it owned, back for fifteen minutes.
• New Feature – Settings › Documents: choose what the order receipt, the order shipped email and the packing slip show, with a live preview built from one of your own orders. The packing slip settings moved here from Settings › Shipping.
• New Feature – Document profiles: keep more than one version of each document, such as a packing slip without prices for gifts or a drop-ship slip with SKUs and no images, and choose which one each document uses by default.
• New Feature – Email attachments: attach the invoice or the packing slip as a PDF to the order receipt, the store’s copy of it, the order shipped email and the packing slip email, each with its own profile.
• New Feature – Order details: one Send Email window for the order receipt, the order shipped email and the packing slip. Preview the email before it goes out and, for that one send, change its content, its attachments and which items are in the box; items left out are listed as to follow. The order activity records what was attached.
• New Feature – Order details: email the packing slip, or download it as a PDF.
• New Feature – Settings › Documents: give any profile of the receipt, the shipped email or the packing slip its own logo and footer image, with its own size and position, from Logo & footer beside Edit wording. The store logo and footer image stay on Settings › Email.
• New Feature – Settings › Documents: the receipt, the shipped email and the packing slip can print your store address in their footer. Set the address once on Settings › Email; the switch on each profile links to it.
• New Feature – Settings › Documents: the invoice or receipt PDF is now a document with profiles and a live preview. Each profile chooses what the PDF shows, whether it is headed Invoice or Receipt, and its own logo, and Email attachments or the order screen picks the profile for each email. Its business details, file name and paper size moved here from Settings › Email.
• New Feature – Order details: download the invoice PDF at any time, not only when PDFs are attached to emails.
• Improvement – Bulk actions: Delete is always the last choice in the menu, on every list.
• Improvement – The notice about downloadable products with no file now links to a filtered product list showing exactly those products.
• Improvement – Payments: a gateway nothing has been entered for now says Connect rather than Finish setup.
• Improvement – Shipping settings: “Use FedEx account discounts” moved from the live carrier rates advanced settings into the FedEx block, where the rest of its settings are.
• Improvement – Cart Links: the link name opens the editor, like the title column on other lists.
• Improvement – Email settings: the email logo and signature image are chosen from the Media Library, with a thumbnail, instead of asking for a pasted URL.
• Improvement – Checkout settings: the terms and privacy fields can write a starting draft page and fill in its address.
• Improvement – Countries & Regions: a region can be deleted straight from the expanded list, and the counts above the list follow region changes.
• Improvement – Store Status: a carrier with shipping rates but no working connection now offers to open its settings or remove those rates.
• Improvement – Order details: an email sent with Email Customer is recorded in the order activity, with who it went to and its subject, and appears without a reload.
• Improvement – Deleting from a row menu now asks in the admin’s own confirmation box rather than the browser’s.
• Improvement – Newsletter subscribers: deleting one, or a selection, now asks first, and the list refreshes once they are gone.
• Improvement – Countries & Regions: a region row now carries the same “…” menu as every other list, with Edit and Delete inside it, instead of text links in the Regions column.
• Improvement – Deleting a customer can now be undone for 15 minutes, the same as orders and products.
• Improvement – Deleting a customer now asks what should happen to the orders they placed: move them to another customer, or turn them back into guest checkouts. Orders are never deleted, and the whole thing can be undone from Store Status.
• Improvement – Square: inventory notifications are now checked against a key registered by your store, recorded in a log you can see on the Square panel, and ignored if the same event arrives twice.
• Improvement – A database change that cannot be applied on your host can now be passed over, so the rest of the update finishes instead of retrying forever. The statement that failed is shown so it can be run by hand, Store Status lists anything skipped, and you can put it back in the queue at any time.
• Improvement – Free local pickup orders are fulfilled by marking them picked up. The orders list offers “Mark picked up” and the order screen “Mark Picked Up”, with no carrier, tracking number or shipped email, and the order reads “Picked up” afterwards. Fulfilling several orders at once does the same for any pickup orders among them.
• Improvement – Product editor: removing, reordering or adding an option set now asks in the admin’s own window and lists what the change means for that product: its variations and their own settings, stock tracked per variation, and the per-option image galleries.
• Improvement – Packing slip: rebuilt on the same design as the store’s emails. It can show the shipping method, carrier and tracking number, and on a new store it starts without prices.
• Improvement – Order receipt and order shipped email: the addresses, the customer’s email address, product images, SKUs, options, prices and order notes can each be switched off.
• Improvement – A store that keeps its own copy of the receipt, shipped email or packing slip template is told on Settings › Documents that its copy keeps working but new switches do not reach it.
• Improvement – Settings › Documents: Edit wording opens the headings and phrases a document prints, in your store’s language, beside the preview, so they can be changed without leaving the page.
• Improvement – Payments: Square’s settings are laid out in groups ( payments, sync, checkout ) with every option in view instead of behind Advanced Options, and saving shows a small indicator instead of covering the form.
• Improvement – Payments: Square’s card says what syncs from Square and when the last webhook notification arrived.
• Improvement – Order details: Email Customer is now part of Send Email, as a Message choice beside the receipt, the shipped email and the packing slip.
• Improvement – Square: when webhook notifications are on but not signed yet, the Square settings say so and offer a one-click Secure notifications, and the Square card on Settings › Payments shows it.
• Bug Fix – Shipping settings: choosing Live carrier rates ( or Fraktjakt ) for the first time reported “Could not save” although the choice was valid; it now saves on the first try.
• Bug Fix – Customers list: View Orders in the row menu now filters the orders list by that customer instead of searching their email address.
• Bug Fix – Reports and dashboard figures now pick up a change to the currency format straight away instead of showing the old format until the cache expired.
• Bug Fix – Products: an add-new link now opens the product list with the quick-add panel, instead of an editor that cannot save a new product.
• Bug Fix – The counts beside a list, such as “Roles 6”, now go down as rows are deleted instead of holding the old number.
• Bug Fix – Variations: changing a variation’s stock, or switching one off, now updates the product’s own stock total straight away, so the inventory list, the out of stock filter and the store front stop showing the old number.
• Bug Fix – Variations: the total above the variations table now counts an enabled but untracked variation the same way the product’s stored total does, so the two figures agree.
• Bug Fix – Square: syncing an item that has more than one variation no longer replaces the product’s SKU with the first variation’s SKU.
• Bug Fix – Square: when a sync does change a product’s SKU, its store page now follows it, so the link to the product keeps working.
• Bug Fix – Saving a settings page could fail with a server error instead of storing the change.
• Bug Fix – Inventory: products whose picture sits in the gallery or in one of the older image slots now show their thumbnail, instead of a placeholder, matching the product list.
• Bug Fix – Settings: the section menu on the left of a settings panel no longer slides up behind the page header as you scroll, hiding its first entries.
• Bug Fix – Settings: “Show N advanced settings” now counts a setting that only appears once another advanced setting is switched on, so the number matches what opens.
• Bug Fix – Deleting a single order, product or customer now explains what the delete does, instead of asking over an empty box.
• Bug Fix – The warning about downloadable products with no file now appears as soon as such a product is saved, rather than waiting for a cached count to expire.
• Bug Fix – Undo after a deletion no longer reports that the deletion can no longer be undone. The saved copy is kept somewhere a cache clear cannot reach, which affected subscribers most often.
• Bug Fix – Square: turning Webhook Sync on when the connection cannot be registered now leaves the switch off and says why, instead of appearing to succeed. Turning it off tells the forwarder to stop as well.
• Bug Fix – Orders: printing several receipts or packing slips at once now starts each one on its own page instead of running them together.
• Bug Fix – Store managers with settings access can now use the Log Entries, Countries & Regions, Price points, Per page and email delivery screens fully. The pages opened for them but every action answered “Permission denied”.
• Bug Fix – USPS live rates: a thin product was measured as a full inch tall for every unit in the cart, so a large quantity was described to USPS as a far bigger parcel than it is and priced on dimensional weight. Quotes for stacks of small items are much closer now.
• Bug Fix – USPS live rates: every parcel was reported as at least 10 x 10 x 5 inches, so small orders were quoted against a carton far bigger than what is being sent. The real size is used, and a store that does ship everything in one carton can set its own minimum.
• Bug Fix – Live carrier rates: the parcel measured for UPS, FedEx, DHL and the other carriers ignored how many of each item were in the cart, lost any dimension under half an inch, and reported the longest side as the width.
• Bug Fix – A database update could stop on a table whose index was built before the column changed type, leaving the store reporting “database upgrade in progress” indefinitely. The index is moved aside and put back, so the update completes.
• Bug Fix – Customers list: the Orders, Spend and Last order columns now update when an order is moved to another customer, turned into a guest checkout, deleted, put back, or when two customers are merged. Both the customer losing the order and the one gaining it are recalculated.
• Bug Fix – Lists: after a bulk print or an export, the next bulk action, search or filter did nothing until the page was reloaded. On the orders list this stopped a second bulk print, such as packing slips after receipts.
• Bug Fix – Product editor: removing one option set, or dragging the sets into a new order, removed every option set and every variation from the product. Only the set you remove is taken off now, and a new order is kept.
• Bug Fix – An order email that failed and was sent again from the email queue went out without its PDF. The attachments are now built again for every retry.
• Bug Fix – Product page with images per option and stock per variant: when every option was out of stock, the page showed the “image not found” picture instead of the product’s default images.
• Bug Fix – Product page with images per option: the page opened on the default images and then jumped to an option’s images. It now opens on the option selected by default when it can be bought, otherwise on the default images, and without default images on the first option that can be bought (or the first option).
• Bug Fix – The order shipped email ignored an email method chosen by another plugin and was listed as a general order email in email delivery. It now goes out like the receipt and is listed as Order shipped.
• Bug Fix – Log Entries: a new entry could read “1 hour ago” when the database server keeps a different time zone from the store.
• Bug Fix – Square: changing whether products you switch off stay off after a sync also made Square the live payment gateway.
• Bug Fix – Square: saving Square’s location or merchant name while another gateway took live payments could switch that gateway off.
• Bug Fix – Product pages: adding to the cart no longer fails with “Maximum quantity exceeded” when a related or featured product with quick view has less stock than the quantity chosen.

6.0.0

• New Feature – Settings redesigned: a Settings home with search across every setting, pages organized into sections with a jump list and clearer wording throughout.
• New Feature – Flex-Fees: a percentage fee can now be calculated on the order total (subtotal + shipping + tax – discounts) instead of the subtotal only, so a card-processing fee such as 2.9% covers the whole charged amount.
• New Feature – Customer file uploads (file upload option) can now be downloaded by staff from the admin order email and the order details screen through a secure link that requires a logged-in administrator or order manager.
• New Feature – Per Page Options: one page size can be starred as the default; the storefront starts shoppers on it.
• New Feature – Customer file upload links in the admin order email can optionally work without signing in, using an expiring private link (Settings › Email › Order emails), with a one-click option to revoke all links already sent.
• New Feature – Text and text area options can now force UPPERCASE, lowercase or Title Case, limit input to letters, letters and spaces, numbers, or letters and numbers, and show placeholder text; rules apply while typing and again when the item is added to the cart.
• New Feature – Email deliverability: send a test email from the Deliverability panel; the result is shown on screen and recorded in the email log.
• New Feature – PDF invoice or receipt to customer and admin order emails (Settings > Email > PDF receipts), with your business details, a file name pattern and A4 or Letter paper, to help meet EU invoicing requirements. Includes an “Email me a sample PDF” button.
• New Feature – Manage offers, coupons and promotions that apply to the product, with status, uses, orders and revenue from the product details.
• New Feature – Stock history on Inventory & Shipping, with the change, reason, resulting quantity and who made it; managed from the product details.
• New Feature – Edit the Yoast SEO title, meta description, focus keyphrase, canonical URL and search visibility from the SEO tab when Yoast SEO is active, directly from the product details.
• New Feature – Price filter in the store sidebar: turn on Settings > Products > Store sidebar > Price filter (or “Enable Sidebar Price Filter” on the Elementor Store element) to list your price ranges with product counts.
• New Feature – File upload options can now limit which file types shoppers may upload (images, documents, design files such as PSD/AI/EPS, archives), with the accepted types shown next to the upload field.
• New Feature – Download the order’s PDF receipt from the order actions menu when PDF receipts are enabled.
• New Feature – Product Details: Quick filters on the Offers tab (All, Live, Targets, Used) with counts.
• New Feature – Product Details: Orders using an offer list with search, offer and date filters, and paging.
• New Feature – Inventory: “Send now” in the Alerts box sends the low stock digest immediately as a test, without changing the schedule.
• New Feature – Settings > Email can now send you each subscription email (trial started, trial ending, renewal coming up, subscription ended, payment failed) as a test, built from a real subscription when you have one.
• New Feature – Settings > Email now shows the retry queue: what is waiting, how many attempts it has had, when the next attempt is, with “Send queue now” and per-email retry, plus a “Simulate a failed send” test that never touches customer mail.
• New Feature – Inquiry forms can now require the shopper to be signed in to a store account.
• New Feature – Refused inquiries are recorded under Settings > Log entries with the reason, a masked email address and no stored IP address.
• New Feature – Authorize.net now allows you to upgrade to the Accept.js version, which offers PCI compliance.
• Improvement – Inventory: import and export rebuilt. The export now carries Product ID and Variant ID, so variants that share a SKU can be updated; the import panel previews every row before applying in the background, logs each change to stock history, and explains rows it cannot match.
• Improvement – Add product panel: pricing, media, inventory & shipping and options are cards in the current admin design; option sets are chosen with search and shown as chips with a variant count.
• Improvement – Orders with nothing to ship (downloads, gift cards, subscriptions and services, or products with shipping disabled) removes the fulfill features.
• Improvement – Order details: the Fulfillment card was redesigned. The status strip no longer wraps a boxed Shipping Info panel with duplicate Edit links; shipping method, carrier and tracking number show as one summary with a single Edit, and new orders get a clear “No shipping details yet” prompt with an Add shipping details button.
• Improvement – Product editor: the Pricing & Tax tab now shows the product’s current price (and crossed-out Previous Price), updating as you type, with an Edit price button that jumps to the Price field on the General tab.
• Improvement – Countries & Regions: the country list now covers the full ISO 3166-1 set (250 countries) and default regions were added for Mexico, Spain, Germany, New Zealand and Ireland, with Brazil and India completed. Applies to new installs and to “Restore default countries & regions” only; existing stores are never changed.
• Improvement – Countries & Regions: saving a country or adding a region updates the list in place; the drawer closes on save.
• Improvement – Settings menu: “Countries” and “States/Territories” merged into one “Countries & Regions” link; old States bookmarks still open the combined screen.
• Improvement – Store details › Currency: a live price preview, one-click separator and decimal-place choices, currency code suggestions with a one-click “usual format” for common currencies, and exchange rates edited as a list instead of a comma-separated string.
• Improvement – Settings › Shipping rates: switch the shipping method right from the rates page, and the rate tables stay readable and editable on small screens.
• Improvement – Order statuses editor redesigned: compact color, name and paid controls in a grid, built-in and custom statuses grouped.
• Improvement – New stores that use Square or WooCommerce now see an “Import your products” item in the launch checklist, linking to the cart importer; Settings search also finds sections such as Cart importer.
• Improvement – Shipping zones collapse large place lists with expand/collapse controls.
• Improvement – Manage Downloads explains folder and permission problems and adds Create folder, Replace file, Choose existing file, Switch to Amazon S3 and Repair actions.
• Improvement – Email deliverability: step-by-step “How to fix” help for SPF, DKIM, DMARC and sender address checks, with ready-to-copy DNS records and where to add them; a new “Improve delivery in 3 steps” guide when no mail plugin is installed; a mail plugin that takes over WordPress mail is now shown as a passed check with a link to its test screen; the health card explains its state in one sentence.
• Improvement – Abandoned Carts shows the next automatic run, the last run result, WP-Cron warnings and a Run now button; reminder emails include one-click List-Unsubscribe headers and test emails no longer touch real customers’ carts.
• Improvement – Stock quantities changed in the product editor are now recorded in inventory history.
• Improvement – Customer file uploads: when an order’s file is not on the server, the order screen shows “File not received” instead of a Download link, the admin order email says “file not received”, and the download link opens a clear page with Open order and Email the customer buttons for staff instead of a bare error.
• Improvement – Canada taxes: for Quebec addresses the provincial tax is shown as QST instead of PST in the cart, checkout, wallets (Apple Pay / Google Pay), emails, receipts, packing slips and admin order totals. GST, PST, QST and HST names are now editable in the language editor (Cart › Cart Totals), with French defaults TPS, TVP, TVQ and TVH. The Canada tax settings explain that Quebec’s QST rate goes in the PST column.
• Improvement – Logs: “View order” is only offered on entries linked to an order.
• Improvement – Live shipping: cart updates only request quotes from carriers that are set up (Australia Post, FedEx, etc. without credentials are skipped), make no carrier requests until the shopper has entered a destination, and reuse the saved quote for up to 30 minutes when the cart, destination and carrier settings have not changed.
• Improvement – Live shipping: Canada Post, FedEx, UPS and USPS are now quoted at the same time instead of one after another, so a cart update waits for the slowest carrier rather than all of them added together.
• Improvement – Live shipping: every carrier request now has a 5 second connection and 10 second overall time limit (Canada Post and USPS had none), and a carrier that cannot be reached, rejects the account or has a server error is skipped for 5 minutes so the cart doesn’t wait on the same failure with every change. Saving that carrier’s settings, reconnecting UPS or a passing connection test lifts the pause, and each pause is recorded in the logs.
• Improvement – The saved live rate quotes table is indexed by cart and cleaned daily (quotes for carts that no longer exist, or older than 18 days).
• Improvement – Every store email now shares one modern design: 600px layout that stacks on phones, store logo and accent color, address cards, clear item table and totals, and a footer.
• Improvement – Addresses in emails now follow each country’s format (postcode before the city in most of Europe, on its own line in the UK) and no longer leave blank lines when a company, second line, state or postcode is missing.
• Improvement – Printable gift card redesigned: the amount and code stand out, the product image no longer fills the page, and it prints cleanly.
• Improvement – User details: saved addresses with no details are labelled “Blank address” with a short explanation instead of “(empty address)”.
• Improvement – Inventory: Bulk Update “Adjust quantity by” now asks you to choose a reason instead of defaulting to “Stock received”.
• Improvement – Redesigned the customer subscription details page with a status badge, product image, price and billing dates, card on file, purchased options, billing history and grouped actions.
• Improvement – Customer file uploads now check the file’s real contents against the option’s allowed types, and always refuse scripts, web pages, SVG and names that hide a script extension.
• Improvement – Product inquiry forms are now protected by an invisible honeypot field and a minimum time-to-submit check, so scripted spam is refused before it reaches your inbox.
• Improvement – Inquiries are rate limited per visitor, per email address and per product, with merchant-set hourly limits under Settings > Products > Inquiry form protection.
• Improvement – Inquiry messages are now checked for length, excessive links and a merchant-editable list of blocked words and domains, and forged or mismatched form fields are rejected.
• Improvement – Hardened the inquiry submit handler: the form nonce is checked before any field is read, and every posted field is sanitized once.
• Bug Fix – Settings > Admin > Quick add panel: the four toggles had no effect on the Add product panel since the settings redesign.
• Bug Fix – Order details: an order with nothing to ship showed as unfulfilled on the order screen while the list showed “No shipping”.
• Bug Fix – Log entries search now matches each word across the response and source, finds order numbers and transaction ids reliably, returns to page 1 on a new search, and keeps special characters when paging and exporting.
• Bug Fix – Subscription checkout saved an option’s download settings as a file name, creating download records that could not be downloaded; option override files on subscriptions are now read correctly too.
• Bug Fix – Store Status “Fix data folders” created folders with broken permissions and could not create nested folders.
• Bug Fix – Unsubscribing from cart reminders now asks the shopper to confirm (so email link scanners cannot unsubscribe anyone), supports one-click unsubscribe from Gmail and Yahoo, stops all future reminders to that address and marks the carts Unsubscribed in the admin.
• Bug Fix – Color swatches now show as colored chips on the storefront (product page, add-to-cart shortcode, Elementor add-to-cart, color widget) instead of broken images.
• Bug Fix – Customer file uploads (file upload option): a file the store cannot accept (file type, size, or an upload that failed) no longer adds the item to the cart with a missing file. Shoppers see why straight away (“This file type cannot be uploaded. Accepted file types: JPG, PNG, …” or the size limit, editable in the language editor), the file picker only offers accepted types, and the server rejects it too. Failed uploads are recorded in the store log when logging is on.
• Bug Fix – Text and text area options now enforce their minimum length: shoppers see “Please enter at least N characters.” (editable in the language editor) instead of adding a shorter value to the cart, and the server rejects it too.
• Bug Fix – Elementor Cart Icon widget: removed a duplicate “alignment” control that triggered a “doing it wrong” notice (it never applied), and the icon hover color now takes effect.
• Bug Fix – Authorize.net: decline reasons were not shown to shoppers, and the legacy URL option stopped charges from going through.
• Bug Fix – Offers: legacy coupons and promotions could disappear from the admin when the conversion check failed (for example on databases with mixed collations), and a failed conversion could switch a legacy coupon off without creating its offer. The Legacy tab now always lists every legacy item, shows why a conversion did not finish, keeps converted items with a link to their offer, and can restore the legacy version with its original dates.
• Bug Fix – DB Compatibility Upgrades.
• Bug Fix – Stripe: when a saved Stripe customer no longer exists on the connected account (account reconnected or test/live switch), checkout now re-creates the customer and continues instead of showing an error.
• Bug Fix – Stripe subscriptions: recurring payment and failed payment webhooks now work with newer Stripe API versions, failed payments are marked correctly, and subscription status is kept in sync with Stripe (including reactivation after a card update).
• Bug Fix – Canada taxes: Quebec QST is calculated on the price before GST (GST 5% and QST 9.975% on the same amount), as Revenu Québec has required since 2013, in the cart, subscriptions, and the Square and Stripe tax rates. A store that needs the old compounded calculation can add the filter wp_easycart_quebec_compound_qst returning true.
• Bug Fix – Canada taxes: New Brunswick and Newfoundland tax settings were applied to each other’s addresses; Newfoundland addresses using NL are now recognized too.
• Bug Fix – Fixed a fatal error on the Dwolla checkout return page.
• Bug Fix – Admin lists no longer error when a page size of 0 is requested.
• Bug Fix – …
