- Inventory Tracking
Merchants with ShopSite Pro stores can now track the inventory on any products in their stores. ShopSite can notify merchants of low stock and out-of-stock conditions, and can prevent customers from ordering products that are out of stock. Merchants can configure thresholds for each product, as well as the messages that they and customers see.
- Ordering Options and Quantity
can now be specified on the Product Page in addition to the shopping cart page.
- Improved User Experience
The store setup wizard, database upload and download, and database maintenance have all been revised for easier use.
- Custom Templates
now support the "else_if" tag as well as nested "if" statements and have better error handling.
- On-line Help
has been improved for easier use.
- Database Improvements
The internal ShopSite Database has been modified for faster performance.
- Mall-wide Product Indexing
A Portal or ISP via programming on their end can now Index all products in all their ShopSite stores. Via settings in global.aa ShopSite can be instructed to produce a XML dump of all products in a store whenever the merchant publishes. A portal could then have a process pick up the file and index it for a global product search. This taxonomy feature is similar to what has been available via ShopSite TX in the Lycos Stores.
- The Lite upsell frame
and other Lite token values can now be set in global.aa as opposed to being redirected from shopsite.com.
- New Payment processor versions.
Version 2.0 of Verisign (Signio), 3.2.0.6 of CyberCash, and v2.1 of Click-Pay. In addition AVS support is now available with CyberCash.
- The merchant can replace the "This store is powered by ShopSite web catalog software."
message that is displayed on the bottom of the Thankyou screen and in the Shopper's email receipt.
- Browser based install
allows you to only install a new store (as opposed to also reinstalling the CGIs).
- Currencies that do not use a decimal
point (e.g. Italian Lira) will no longer have them displayed.
