We are very happy to announce the latest platform update - live as of now. Read on below for the most important changes and learn how you can utilize the new features to enhance your shop.
General
- New: Attributes, Attribute Groups and Attribute Sets (SILVER and GOLD)
It is now possible to define custom attributes and arrange them in groups and sets (multiple groups). Each attribute can have a custom data type, validation logic and may be displayed in the shop front end or even be used for searching, sorting and filtering.
For example, if you sell educational content, you can use attributes to differentiate content for pupils and teachers, manage age groups, link to exams, etc.

The category management has been completely rewritten. It now supports unlimited sub categories, arrange via drag and drop, temporary disable, display of number of contents and much more.
