We hinted at a couple major development projects at the end of our July in Review, and while a couple of those are wrapping up now, we have several other feature releases or rewrites to recap our August development schedule. General Updates We had a few tutorial blog posts over the past month that could help you with extensions or some general WooCommerce tweaks. Add Social Login Buttons to WooCommerce Memberships: a tutorial on adding…
Great news! If you use Social Login version 2.5.0 or newer, this tutorial is no longer required — support for Memberships is built in. A question we’ve seen a few times in our support channels goes along these lines: “How can I add WooCommerce Social Login buttons to my restriction messages for WooCommerce Memberships? I want members to be able to use these buttons to log in easily as well.” This change makes it easy…
When we published our May in Review I talked about how it felt like the month just ended. This time they went by so fast I didn’t even realize June had ended; I’m sure many of you know that feeling! Here are some updates from the past couple months from our blog and development team. Lots of new stuff in progress, so check out that section 🙂 General Updates Customer / Order CSV Export v4.0…
Our WooCommerce Customer / Order CSV Export plugin has undergone some massive changes recently, and version 4.0 is now available to download for active license holders! This release includes a lot of refactoring and internal improvements for the plugin. It follows on the heels of our Customer / Coupon / Order CSV Import Rewrite, leveraging what we’d learned about batch processing and parsing for export files to make exporting thousands of records a breeze. While…
I swear, each month I feel like I just wrote a month recap, and then I’m immediately writing another! Our April in Review covered some payment gateway rewrites, while May was a pretty intensive month devoted to WooCommerce 2.6 compatibility. For each major WooCommerce release, every plugin gets audited and updated (which is over 60 plugins in total, both free and paid). Support for new WooCommerce features, hooks, and methods are added, while support for…
We’re happy to announce the release of our WooCommerce Authorize.net SIM extension! This plugin provides a new, PCI-compliant payment method via Authorize.net. Customers are taken off-site to a hosted payment page to complete a transaction (similar to PayPal Standard). The plugin also supports eChecks, letting you securely process ACH transactions. The old “SIM”, a bundled AIM gateway Previously, a very old SIM / Authorize.net emulation protocol was bundled into our WooCommerce Authorize.net AIM extension. This…
Version 3.0 of our WooCommerce Customer / Coupon / Order CSV Import suite was released last week. While this adds necessary upgrades like WooCommerce 2.6 compatibility, it also provides a complete rewrite and tons of new features! Let’s take a look at the changes. Background Import Process One of the problems we saw frequently with order imports was timeouts on shared hosts. For some stores, this limited the number of orders you could import at…
Another month, another review! Unlike our March in Review, April has a pretty specific focus: payment gateways. We pushed out a lot of gateway updates in April, and our entire WooCommerce development team attended WooConf. We’ve also got a lot of exciting stuff in progress already for May, check it out 🙂 General Updates WooConf Paytrail v2.0.0 First Data v4.0.0 Payment Gateway Features In progress General Updates As our team was traveling for and attending…
We’ve got several exciting updates coming to WooCommerce First Data to share with you, which should be available via your WooCommerce dashboard by tomorrow 🙂 Version 4.0.0 refactors large parts of the plugin to make use of some common code we have for payment gateways, improving the performance and reliability of First Data, along with the addition of a new gateway mode. This also gives First Data some useful new features, such as capturing payments…
After spending last week in beautiful Austin, Texas for WooConf, our team is catching up and we’re taking some time to reflect on the past week. The first WooConf was hard to top, but the second WooConf definitely stepped up to the plate! Thanks so much to Maria, Joel, and all conference organizers for putting on a great event, and thanks to Dre Armeda for being a top-notch MC. As our resident photography enthusiast, thanks…
