Meet Cs-Cart & Multi-Vendor 4.10.1 With New Checkout And Product Variations



We have released CS-Cart and Multi-Vendor 4.10.1. The changes are too many to describe here, so instead we’ve listed them in our blog. This time you’ll also find links to videos about new variations and checkout there. Here I’ll only list 3 most important changes:

  • Product variations are finally out of beta, and with new functionality.
  • New customizable one-step checkout has been introduced.
  • A new add-on called “Stores and pick up points” has been added. It’ll let you create a “Pick up from store” shipping method with manually defined rates.

Read the article in our blog for more information about the changes.


The upgrades to version 4.10.1 are already available. As usual, for the first few days after the release we hand out upgrade packages in limited numbers, but then we lift that restriction. So if you don’t see this upgrade in your Upgrade Center yet, please try again later.

Good news, thx

Perfect! Keep on working fot the best Cs cart team.


Ship different address will come next versions?

I was waiting for this and i am very happy with amount of additions and changes been done in this version :grin:

Please Cs-cart integrate a payment gateway and courier for india as default (delhivery and razorpay is suggested).

Sorry.. but this is super stupid!

[+] Users: Profile fields: New phone numbers can only be entered in the international format (+1234567890). The field won’t accept extra digits or other symbols.

There are a lot of Illiterate customers.. the order should be easy.

If we update, we will start to have a lot of phone calls, that they can not make an order, because the system give them error with the phone!!!

There are a lot of online shops, that are local, and work only local. This is unnecessary.

Was looking forward to this update but wont update for now.. Not sure how removal of shipping / billing would impact my store.

Same here

even my store is international, major users enter phone number as local and delivery companies have no problem accepting such format phone numbers, while for me it is not important at all since I do not do phone support. Users could be advised asked to enter in international format but not made to, this can make confusion to most

The system doesn't give errors when a number doesn't match the conditions. Instead, it ensures that a customer can't enter more or fewer digits than necessary, or enter some text or symbols instead of digits. In fact, it's more convenient for customers that way: they don't need to worry how exactly they should enter the phone number.

The international format of phone numbers is also useful for integrating CS-Cart with messengers or SMS notification services.

If you don't need to verify what customers enter as a phone number or how they enter it, you can create a profile field with the "Input field" type for the phone.

Still confused that developers aren't brought up to date with the new Language class being the new standard and that hooks can finally be submitted as a method of a class. If you would just for once notify developers about these changes, that'd be great.

Also, for those interested, there are clues that CS-Cart 5.0.1 is coming very soon. A lot of things will be deprecated as far as I could see so you definitely shouldn't expect addons to be released very soon then.

For now, that is all the information I can give based on the given information in the release package.

PS

I like one page checkout overall, but default styling needs some more work..

There are no plans for 5.0.1 yet.

I see that you already had a discussion with Ilya regarding it (and Darius mentioned it too). I think it all depends on how many people express interest in something like this.

This is something I need, I sell a lot of goods to companies and the majority of the time the shipping/delivery address is different. This includes fields like first name, last name, phone number

Without the ability to define different shipping/delivery address fields then the latest version of cs-cart would not be suitable for my needs and there would be no requirement for me to extend my license.

Regarding the phone mask I think the new format is going to confuse my customers and cause shopping carts to be abondanded

@JohnCarroll cs-cart team will see next days "many people express interest with this", and they will se how will get big problem for cs-cart. any way. i wont update my customer stores without this feature. coz its really important for us, for invoicing.

also you cant edit phone formating, also we are working only local we dont need begin +1. its can be editable...

We recently updated the list of changes in 4.10.1 for developers (if you opened the document before, you might need to refresh the page to see the changes). It might now have some of the information you were referring to. The changes get documented alongside with the development, and some parts of it got added between 4.10.1 RC1 and 4.10.1 Final.

Hi ikoshin

Also you cant edit phone formating, also we are working only local we dont need begin +1. its can be editable...

And shipping part is selectable is good for eveyone

Well, there is a geolocation addon. I think that adding the international phone code automatically based on the geolocation would fix the problem. You can check how it's done in this library https://intl-tel-input.com/.

Could cs-cart team implement this? It looks like an easy fix for the current situation.

I've asked too many times for the ability to add radio button to show additional invoice fields. I think that if you will search the forum you will find plenty of interest in this functionality.

I agree that there should be an option to have different billing and shipping address. I will not use the new checkout until this functionality is introduced.
