Bug fixes (15)​

• We've fixed a warning which could happen on PHP 8.3 in some rare cases with prices without a zone.
• When selecting another user for an order in the backend, you have a setting to be able to change the billing and shipping address with one from the newly selected user. When you did so far, the address selector displayed the addresses with the state and country's namekey instead of using their name. This is now fixed.
• With the advanced price display system, the advantage row (current taxed price minus the MSRP taxed price) would be wrong when the current currency would not be the same as the main currency of the shop.
• We fixed a warning with the Google Products plugin.
• We made a patch to avoid a javascript error from the javascript of the Joomla atum template in backend popups of HikaShop on Joomla 5.
• An icon didn't have the correct path leading to it not displaying.
• When, for at least one price of a product, the currency that was selected when the price was saved does not exist anymore in the database, the export function would generate a fatal error on PHP 8. We've made a patch to avoid the error and instead log a message in the "payment log file" with information about the product, price and currency involved. This way, the export can still happen normally, and if necessary, the log can provide information about what is wrong so that action can be taken in the administrator to remedy the situation.
• The discount amount might not display with the currency formatting with the advanced price display settings on products listings.
• We fixed a PHP error which could happen when using a mass action with an action "update the options" on PHP8 and newer.
• When cleared, the order status filter on the backend orders listing would still remember the old selected value in some cases.
• The import would generate a fatal error on PHP 8.3 or newer when importing a CSV file with invalid URLs for the images instead of just skipping them.
• The "x characters left" message displayed below custom field textareas with a maximum length configured would not be set properly after a first validation.
• The geolocation cache data would grow too much in the database.
• The sub categories listing of categories listings would not be translated in some cases.
• We fixed an error which would happen on Joomla 5 when using the activation link with the backward compatibility plugin disabled.

Improvements (17)​

• We've added an extra parameter contact_request_sent to the URL of the product page when coming back from the contact form after successfully sending a contact request. This will help with tracking analytics.
• The out of stock plugin now won't notify the administrator of variants out of stock if their main product is unpublished.
• We've improved the characteristic selector on the variant edit form in the backend. It now supports HTTML elements.
• When you edit a view via the Display>Views menu, you sometimes have a view builder where you can drag & drop the elements of the view around, or delete them. The view builder now not only supports views with a grid layout, but also views with a table layout.
• When a coupon had a "shipping price percentage" set, the coupon object's total attribute would not previously take into account the amount of that shipping percentage. While this had no visible effect in HikaShop in itself, it would prevent the multicoupon plugin from properly taking into account that amount.
• Translation of HikaShop in Spanish updated and completed.
• TeleOptimum provided a complete translation file for the Hungarian language. Thanks !
• The Smart Search integration now takes into account the "access level" of the products so that products not available to all user groups are not indexed.
• We have modified the pay now page view on the frontend, to display the payment method selector the same way as in the checkout. This way the experience will be more homogeneous.
• We improved the image popup mechanism with several images so that the main image is not in the gallery of the popup twice.
• We made a modification to have a class hikashop_current_subcategory for the current subcategory displayed in the main area of the page when displaying a listing of categories in "div" mode with children categories display activated. This way, it will be easier to style the categories based on the current category of the page with custom CSS.
• The characteristic dropdowns now allow for HTML entities to be displayed on the frontend product details page.
• We've added an extra message to the mass action edit form when the "actions as a button" setting is activated.
• We've improved the image popup on the product details page for products with variants.
• We've improved the code of the PayPal Checkout plugin in order to better handle eCheck payments.
• The "email history" access level has been added to the HikaShop configuration for HikaShop Business.
• We've improved the maintenance mode of HikaShop so that modules don't display anything anymore.

New features (6)​

• We've added a new event onBeforeLoadFullOrder( &$order, &$additionalData, &$checkUser) so that plugins can register it and potentially change the way the orders are being loaded.
• We've added a new event onViewsListingLoad(&$templates, &$pageInfo) to HikaShop. This event will allow you to more easily add views to the listing of views of HikaShop from your plugin so that overrides can be done via the interface there.
• The files of emails and email templates from HikaShop and other extensions sending their emails through HikaShop (HikaMarket, HikaSerial, HikaAuction, the reminder plugin, etc) can now be edited via the Display>Views menu with HikaShop Business.
• In HikaShop Business, you can edit your emails via the menu System>Emails. Now, the HTML section of emails supports the view builder system of the Display>Views menu. This way, you can more easily customize your emails without having to dive into the HTML for simple modifications.
• The FedEx shipping plugin now has a new option to be able to select Special Service Types.
• We've added a setting "index variants" to the smart search integration plugin so that you can choose to not index variants.
