Welcome to what’s new on Shopfront for October 2020! We’ve got a short list of features and fixes this month because we’re full steam ahead on a secret project that we’ll have more details to release about during November.

Note: some of these changes are gradually rolling out. All stores will receive them by the end of next week.

Minor Features

  • When something has been restored from the trash we now keep the screen at the same position instead of scrolling back to the top,

  • A loading screen now appears while the favourite reports are first rendering,

  • Exporting CSV and PDF versions of the Inventory at Date report no longer wait on the server to generate them and instead you’ll receive a notification,

  • Improved speed of inventory log report for small date periods

Bug Fixes

  • Per product discounts now appear correctly on receipts in complex promotion and discount combinations,

  • Docket printing by tag (kitchen printing) correctly prints when the transaction doesn’t contain any tag,

  • Failed payments no longer prevent a parked sale from being cancelled,

  • Prevented parked sales from duplicating after they’re initially parked and then edited (by either adding a customer or adding more products),

  • Performing sales offline and then force syncing the register no longer causes incorrect takings for the day,

  • Price changes in the future now appear in the revision history when the price activates, not when the price was changed,

  • Prevented advanced report from crashing due to eager optimisations,

  • Completing a sale which had been parked on a different register and then reparked on the current register no longer fails to upload,

  • Automatic banner group promotions that have been made inactive via the promotion index page no longer get automatically made active again after being updated by the banner group,

  • Public notes no longer lose line breaks when emailing orders,

  • Filtering the sales history by a gift card which has never existed now returns no sales instead of all sales,

  • Promotions for a customer group now apply to the customer group instantly instead of after a sync,

  • Additional information boolean toggles which default to true now correctly display as enabled,

  • [Developer] Embedded API no longer times out when you’re not listening for an event (forcing the user to wait)
