That's why we are always monitoring how Ecwid pages look and behave in WordPress e-commerce themes. - **Fixes for Gutenberg's "Store home page" block.** Ecwid adds ten ecommerce blocks to Gutenberg.

In this update, we are adding support for more multilingual plugins: Polylang, TranslatePress, WPGlobus, WP Multilang, Multisite Language Switcher, MultilingualPress, Multilanguage by BestWebSoft, Transposh WordPress Translation and more. In general, if some plugin or a custom code switches locale on your site, Ecwid should be compatible with it and change the storefront language accordingly.

This should increase chances the Google bot will crawl and index your product catalog well. - **Improved compatibility with WPML (part 3): hreflang tags for SEO**. WPML is a popular plugin to build multilingual sites. As we mentioned before, Ecwid now supports full-featured multilingual storefronts, too. In this update, we further improved WPML support in Ecwid. Now, if you have enabled the multilingual mode in your ecommerce store and are using WPML on your WordPress site, your shop pages will have links to the alternative language versions so that search engines will know which version to display to customer. Those alternative links are specified in hreflang tags in your storefront — special HTML elements aimed to link language versions of the same page between each other. - **Several fixes and improvements for the “Import from WooCommerce” tool**.

The blocks include: the store home page to display the whole storefront, the store category page to show a particular category, the large product card to show detailed product information, the small product card to display one or several product widgets, the buy now button to add buttons to blog posts, the search and filters page, the search input block, the shopping cart icon block and the cart and checkout block. To try the new blocks, open Gutenberg editor in your WordPress admin backend, click "Add block" and find the "Ecwid" blocks set there. - **Added In-context "Edit Product" links.** You can now open store product editor quickly when browsing published store pages as an administrator. Just click the "Edit Product" link at the top of the page in the WordPress admin header or the "Edit" button at the bottom of the post and you will get redirected to the product details in your e-commerce store dashboard. - **Added SEO improvement for the H1 tags on the product and category pages**. Ecwid puts product and categories ecommerce data in the page content in a SEO-friendly microdata format so that search engines can index your store well. On the other hand, Wordpress pages have their own data, specifically <h1> tags, which stay on product pages and visible to Google when it is indexing your site. So, in addition to a product title like "My cool product", Google may see your store page title on the same page like "Shop". We improved it: the product pages will now have more prominent and clear <h1> tags containing product titles. This should improve indexation and the way your products look in the search results in Google. - **Added compatibility with the Enfold theme page builder (Avia Layout Builder)**. We learned that Ecwid didn't work well with the Avia page builder which is a part of the Enfold theme. Enfold users might notice it was difficult to add Ecwid blocks to a page.

Added fixes and layout improvements to make the Ecwid e-commerce plugin compatible with the Mega Menu WordPress plugin.

We improved it to make the product and category pages appear better to your customers. - Various minor fixes and improvements. = 6.4.8 - Dec 26, 2018 = - **Improved settings interface for the "Product" block in Gutenberg (the new WordPress page editor)**. You can add a single product to any of your pages or posts using the Ecwid ecommerce "Product" block and fine-tune its layout in the block settings on the right side in the editor. - **Resolved a minor layout issue caused by the Embed Any Document plugin.** The Embed Any Document plugin adds a breaking CSS code to the Wordpress admin backend which caused some of the Ecwid plugin admin pages display incorreclty. We fixed that, the plugins are now compatible. - **SEO enhancement: improved canonical tags for the sites that display different store categories on different site pages.** In such case, the canonical tags on products and categories pages will keep the pages structure as is (link to the page that they are opened from). Otherwise, if you have one main store page displaying the whole catalog, the product/categories canonical tags will link to the main store page to avoid duplicates issues and make your e-commerce store appear better in the Google search results. - Minor improvements for the Ecwid admin backend pages navigation. = 6.4.7 - Dec 14, 2018 = - **Compatibility fixes for Elementor and Gravity Forms.** Thanks to a user report, we found a few glitches in how the Ecwid e-commerce plugin works with Elementor and Gravity Forms.

This update brings a set of loading speed improvements for some part of the stores. We will gradually roll out these enhancements to all users. No actions required from your side — your store will get all of the improvements in this or upcoming releases. But if you ever noticed your store loading slowly, please contact us so we can help you enable this new feature on your site right now. - **Fixed an issue in the plugin settings menu on [Wordpress.com](http://wordpress.com).** Ecwid e-commerce plugin works on Wordpress.com sites as well. In the admin backend of [WordPress.com](http://wordpress.com) sites, the plugin menu didn't look well — some of the styles and colors were broken.

Now they are a part of real-time page building experience: you tweak the appearance, preview changes and publish them right from the page editor. To see the new appearance options, please make sure you enabled the Gutenberg editor in your WordPress admin backend. - **SEO fix: 404 status for removed products and categories.** Previously, Ecwid didn't mark removed products and categories with correct 404 responses — it just displayed a customer-friendly message saying the product is not available. Google recommends making removed pages clearly marked with a special 404 response code available for search robots to read. We added it to make sure unavailable products will be quicker removed from the Google search results giving more customer attention to the available products. - Minor fixes and improvements. = 6.3.2 - Oct 1, 2018 = - **Fixed a problem with the WordPress admin menu items.** In some cases, the WordPress admin navigation froze when an Ecwid store admin page was opened.

In this update, we are rolling out a few minor improvements to the Ecwid layout for the Avada, Bridge and Parallax One WordPress themes. - **Fix of a conflict with Master slider plugin.** The Master slider plugin used to conflict with Ecwid plugin in the WordPress admin backend, which may cause some of the slider management pages look broken in the slider dashboard.

This will define where the store navigation menus and sidebar widgets should be linked to. If you have a single online store page (which is totally OK), this new option won’t be displayed. - **New warning messages for the sites with outdated TLS.** Ecwid is a PCI DSS level 1 certified ecommerce provider, which is a gold security standard for e-commerce solutions. Put it simply, when you use Ecwid, you have a bank level of online payments security in your online store. One of the requirements to make sure Ecwid merchants can securely process payments on their site is to use up-to-date TLS software on the server where your site is hosted. If your store dashboard doesn’t load in your Wordpress admin backend or you see a warning message saying that the Ecwid plugin cannot connect to the Ecwid API, that’s most likely caused by outdated TLS on your hosting. We recommend contacting your hosting in such case. If everything works fine and no warning message appears, that means no action is required from your side. - **Minor improvements in the store dashboard in the WordPress admin backend.** We improved the scroll behavior on the store admin dashboard pages and fixed a couple minor issues in the Ecwid menu items in the WordPress admin backend. - **Fixed an issue with store popup appearing on protected pages before the password is entered.** Some online sellers add their store catalog on protected pages on their ecommerce site to restrict access to it for some particular group of customers (e.g. wholesale membership).

You can enable it in the Customizer menu under "Ecwid" section in your WordPress admin backend: (Appearance → Customize → Ecwid). - **Fixed a "Call to undefined function mb_strtolower" error message that appeared on some hosts.** If you saw such an error message, this should be fixed now. - **Fixed a minor issue with the way Ecwid clean URLs work with Divi theme.** If you're using Divi theme on your site, you might notice that product page links gave you a 404 error in some rare cases.

Now you can use that sitebuilder with the Ecwid plugin — everything should work fine. - **Fixed a pre-renderering issue in IE browser.** The Ecwid e-commerce plugin adds prerender/preload tags to your site code — those are special html codes aimed to make the store page loads faster for your customers. This pre-rendering technology didn’t work well in old IE browsers (IE 11 and older) so we disabled it for IE visitors on your site. It works automatically, so no actions required from your side. - **Compatibility with Polylang plugin.** We got a report from one of our customers stating that Ecwid didn’t work well with Polylang plugin. We fixed an issue, now everything should work fine. - Improvements and fixes for the plugin navigation in the WP admin menu. - Improvements and fixes for store pages SEO friendly urls. - Fixed a minor issue in the “Tools -> Import -> Ecwid products” section in the WP admin backend. = 6.0.3 - Apr 19, 2018 = - Fixed incorrect sorting in the store categories menu widgets.

We fixed that — now the sorting matches. - Fixed unclickable products/categories in storefront. This issue appeared in very rare occasions, when a site is running on https (like https://example.com) but someone opens it using an http link (http://example.com).

We recommend redirecting http to https version though anyway. = 6.0.2 - Apr 13, 2018 = - Fixed an error that occurred under specific server configurations. = 6.0.1 - Apr 11, 2018 = - **Compatibility with Gutenberg.** Gutenberg editor is getting more and more popular and will soon be the default WordPress editor.

Now when you edit a page in Gutenberg, you will see a new "Ecwid online store" block in the editor toolbar — this can be used to add a store to a page. In future updates, we will add ability to add a product widget (or a buy now button) to a post or page in Gutenberg. - **New product import tools.** Some sellers copy their products to Ecwid e-commerce plugin from WooCommerce, other shopping carts or local database or spreadsheet. We made it easier to do that in Ecwid. You can now see a separate Ecwid block under Tools -> Import in the WordPress admin backend. That block allows you to import products and categories to your store from WooCommerce or external CSV file. - **New WordPress admin dashboard widget: help/educational materials for sellers.** We added a new Ecwid block to the WordPress admin dashboard — it features useful posts from the Ecwid ecommerce blog. The block refreshes itself automatically when we publish a new blog post.

Historically, the Ecwid store management dashboard displayed navigation within the central page content when you open it in your WordPress admin backend. So, you open the “Ecwid” menu in your WP admin and then navigate through your store admin pages inside that general “Ecwid” page. We’re improving this process: now the store admin navigation menu will be a part of the WordPress admin menu. So now you will find management/settings/apps and other sections right in the WordPress left-hand navigation sidebar. This will align the Ecwid plugin navigation with the general WordPress navigation and provide more natural way to find the right page of your store dashboard. Also, this will free some space in the page central area to make it more convenient to manage your store, especially on mobile devices. - Minor fixes and improvements. - 6.0.1 fixes compatibility issues with outdated php versions. = 5.8.2 - Mar 9, 2018 = - **Fixed an issue with the categories menu appeared in the version 5.8.1.** = 5.8.1 - Mar 7, 2018 = - **Compatibility with the Yoast premium SEO plugin.** Yoast recently updated their SEO plugins. We adjusted Ecwid plugin to work well with them. So, as usually, Ecwid should work well with Yoast products, feel free to use them to get your site and online store optimized for search engines. - **Fixed an issue with Ecwid buttons in the Elementor page builder toolbar.** Ecwid’s “Add store” and “Add product” buttons didn’t work well in the Elementor editor toolbar. We hid the Ecwid buttons from the toolbar as a workaround. To add a store or a single product to a page in the Elementor editor, please use [ec_store] and [ec_product] shortcodes or temporarily switch to the default WP editor. - **Fixed compatibility issues with Themify AJAX themes.** If you use one of Themify themes with AJAX navigation enabled, you might notice that your store page didn’t load sometimes. We fixed that. Ecwid should work well with any Wordpress theme. - **Fixed an issue with SEO-friendly description on store product pages.** Ecwid ecommerce plugin renders your store pages in a special search engines friendly way so that they can index your products and display them better in search results. In some cases, product description wasn’t displayed in that SEO version of store page. We fixed that, everything should work fine and your products should be displayed well in Google search. - Minor fixes and improvements. = 5.8 - Feb 8, 2018 = - **Improved OG tags support.** OpenGraph (or OG) tags are special marks in site pages code, that are used to make better snippets when you share a page on Facebook, Twitter and other sites and social networks. We added OG tags to the products pages — this will make your product title, description and image appear in a snippet/post when you share a link to that product. - **Revamped Ecwid menu in WordPress admin backend.** Historically, the Ecwid store management dashboard displayed navigation within the central page content when you open it in your Wordpress admin backend. So, you open the “Ecwid” menu in your WP admin and then navigate through your store admin pages within that general “Ecwid” page. We’re improving this process: now the store admin navigation menu will be a part of the Wordpress native admin menu, so you will find products/sales/settings/promotions/apps and other sections right in the Wordpress left-hand navigation sidebar. This will align the Ecwid plugin navigation with the general Wordpress navigation and provide more natural way to find the right page of your store dashboard. Also, this will free some space in the page central area to make it more convenient to manage your store, especially on mobile devices. IMPORTANT: The change is now enabled for the new plugin users only. We will gradually roll it out to all of the plugin users in the upcoming updates. - **Improved compatibility with Customizr theme (part 2).** We continue improving the Ecwid online store plugin to work well with a popular “Customizr” theme and to make the store appearance and behavior fit the theme better. This is a continue of the improvements for Customizr that we released in the previous plugin update. If you’re using the Customizr theme, please let us know what you think. - **Several minor fixes and improvements.** The Ecwid plugin is constantly updated with new features and tools.

We fixed it. So if you experienced that issue in your Wordpress admin backend, this update should fix it for you. - **Added fixes and layout improvements to make Ecwid e-commerce plugin compatible with “Abubize Business” and “Evolve Plus” Wordpress themes.** If you use one of those themes, you might notice layout issues on your store page caused by the theme styles overriding Ecwid styles. We fixed that. If you find any trouble in how Ecwid works with your theme, please let us know. - **Fixed an issue in the way Ecwid shortcode is rendered in the Wordpress page editor.** You might notice the Wordpress editor froze when you changed the "widgets" part of the Ecwid shortcode in the editor. For example, if you put a shortcode with categories widget only (without product browser). We fixed it — now you can adjust the shortcode as you wish. Note this problem only affected the Wordpress editor — neither your store nor your control panel were affected. So, if you don't customize the shortcode content, you can just ignore this, everything is working fine for you. - **Several minor fixes and improvements.** Ecwid is constantly updated with new cool ecommerce features. To see more updates and learn something new about selling online, see [our blog](https://www.ecwid.com/blog/ecwid-updates). = 5.7.1 = - **Fix for the “The requested product is not available” error message appeared in the version 5.7**.

Everything should work fine now. = 5.7 = - **New feature in the [ecwid] shortcode — it’s now possible to specify the product that will be displayed by default when the store page is opened.** If you want to feature some product from your online store on one of the site pages or if you sell a single product, you can specify it in the new “default_product_id” parameter in the ecwid shortcode to make it opened by default. - **Speedup in the store navigation for your customers.** We improved Ecwid e-commerce sidebar widgets and menus in the storefront, they now work without page reload when a visitor is already on the store page. After the customer opens your store page, all further browsing will be super fast, including switching between products, opening categories, visiting recently viewed products etc. - **Fixed an issue with title and description meta tags being changed by the Yoast SEO plugin on store pages.** If you have Yoast installed, you might notice this issue recently. Now your products and categories titles and descriptions will get to the page meta title/description tags with no problem. This should help Google index your catalog properly. - Ecwid is constantly updated with new cool ecommerce features and improvements.

Previously, these links might not work if you added them in the recent weeks. We now fixed it, they should work fine. - **Fixed an issue with the browser back button and the customer cart content.** In some rare cases (when the Single Sign On tool is enabled), when a logged in store visitor clicked the back button in their browser, the cart content might be refreshed. We fixed that — whether you have the customer Single Sign On enabled or not, the storefront, cart and checkout should work properly. - **Added compatibility with the “Above The Fold Optimization” plugin.** You can use that plugin along with the Ecwid shopping cart, everything should work fine with no issues. - **Fixed a slight layout issue with the “Optimizer” theme.** Product thumbnail pictures displayed improperly in that theme.

You will find the widget under Appearance -> Widgets section in your Wordpress admin backend. - **Added SEO optimization for single product widgets.** Now, single product widgets will include SEO-friendly markup for product's title/price/availability data to let the search engines better index the page content. You can add single product widgets to your site pages using the "Add Product" button in the Wordpress page editor. - **Slightly optimized loading speed.** The Ecwid Online Store plugin now loads less CSS/JS files on your site to decrease number of resources the visitor browser should process and to increase loading speed. - **Fixed an issue with SEO friendly clean URLs.** On some sites in rare occasions, product URLs responded with 404 errors.

This update includes optimization of single product widgets. The optimization should have especially good effect if you added multiple single product widgets on a page (e.g. for creating a featured slider or a customized products grid). - **The Recently Viewed Products widget is also optimized.** It now works much faster. If you haven’t used the widget before, feel free to enable it under Appearance -> Widgets. - **The legacy “Appearance” settings page is removed from the plugin admin menu.** The old “Appearance” settings page was removed from the plugin settings navigation. To configure the product catalog settings (displayed widgets, products per page etc), you can open your store page for editing in the WordPress admin backend and click the “Edit appearance” button there. If you don’t have a store on the page, click the “Add store” button in the page editor and set the appearance settings there — they will be applied to your store on that page. - **Fixed “Strict standards” code notices.** Some users may discover this notice on their site, if the debugging messages are not disabled in the Wordpress installation. That didn’t affect the store functionality, but looked odd. We fixed that — there should not be any warning messages displayed now. - Minor fixes and improvements. = 5.4.1 = - Fixed an issue with the store page loading in the newest version 5.4. In some rare occasions, the store page might not display right after update to the version 5.4.

The “Product Advisor” plugin has a bug that prevents it from working correctly with the newest versions of the Ecwid plugin. When the Product advisor plugin is enabled, the site pages do not respond. We added a workaround to the Ecwid plugin to make sure the WP admin pages will work well for the “Product advisor”. So, if you’re using the “Product advisor” plugin and see any issue with your site now, please disable that plugin in your WP admin backend. We’re speaking with the author of the Product advisor plugin so there will hopefully be a solution soon. = 5.4 = - **Improvements in the SEO friendly versions of product pages, which are indexed by search engines.** This includes optimized product price format, canonical tags and minor adjustments for SEO titles and descriptions.

If you faced a trouble adding product widgets to your pages and posts, please update the plugin and try again. = 5.3 = - **Fixes and improvements for the new clean URLs functionality.** The new clean URLs for your online store are now more stable and the product pages are more SEO friendly.

This new version is formatted to provide product and category information in a clear and understandable format for crawl robots that cannot parse JavaScript — this makes your store indexable by other search engines besides Google (e.g. Yandex). This special version is not visible in a browser, so your customers will as usually get the full store version. Please do not forget to enable new SEO friendly clean URLs to get this working on your site. = 5.1.1 = - **Fixed the “Strict code standards” notices** appearing on some sites with Ecwid plugin enabled. The messages didn’t affect the product catalog and checkout, but looked confusing for the site visitors. We fixed that. The notices should disappear now. - Minor improvement for the SEO friendly clean URLs function. = 5.1 = - **Improved SEO friendly clean URLs tool.** Previously, if you had your store installed on different pages of your site (e.g. different store categories on different site pages), the SEO URLs worked on the main store/catalog page only. Now it should work fine on all pages you add your store to. Please make sure you use the “Add store” editor button when adding your store to the site pages. - **The new categories menu widget is now enabled for every site.** We released the new categories widget in the version 3.4 — it is mobile friendly and looks great with any wordpress ecommerce theme. We made it possible to turn on/off the new widget temporarily to make sure every site would have time to try it before it’s enabled for everyone. Now it’s enabled. If you have enabled it previously, nothing will change for you — your categories widget is already updated. If you have the old categories widget displayed on your site, this update will replace it with the new one. Please let us know if you have any trouble with the new widget. - **Fixes and improvements for the SEO friendly clean URLs option.** We continue polishing the new Ecwid URLs (added in the v.5) to make sure they work well in every store. Have any feedback on your store URLs? Please let us know. = 5.0.7 = - **SEO improvement for canonical tags on the product and category pages.** The Ecwid ecommerce plugin now hides the store root page canonical and dynamically adds corresponding canonical tags to the product and category pages as you browse the store. This is to improve the pages visibility for search engines, when the new clean URLs option is enabled. - **Fixed layout issue in the Wordpress 2017 theme.** We found an issue with the way Ecwid online stores are displayed in the default Wordpress “Twenty Seventeen” theme — the stores pages appeared too narrow. We fixed that. = 5.0.6 = - **Fixed a loading speed issue.** Some sites with the Ecwid ecommerce plugin might have troubles with loading speed, when store categories menu was enabled. We optimized the way Ecwid renders and displays the store categories navigation so the issue should be fixed now. = 5.0.5 = - **Fixed a a bug causing 404 errors on the store page when SEO friendly URLs are enabled.** The issue appeared on the sites where store is placed on the site home page.

We made store pages URLs clean and SEO friendly. The new URLs do not contain hash sign ("#"), which makes your store better indexed by Google. There are less extra characters like '/', '~' or'!', so the page address looks cleaner. As previously, the new product and category pages URLs include product/category titles to make them easily readable both for Google and for your customers. Of course, no page refresh happens when the customer browses your store: the store pages with new URLs work without page reload, as it's been always worked in Ecwid. So, you have your quickly loading store pages with new SEO friendly URLs. To enable the new URLs, navigate to the Ecwid plugin Advanced settings and tick the "SEO friendly URLs" checkbox. Note: the old URLs format is supported as well, so all your existing links will continue to work fine. - **An improvement for the floating cart sidebar widget.** Now, when you add the widget to any sidebar, the widget will displayed on every site page regardless of whether the sidebar is available on that page or not.

We made it possible to turn on/off the new widget temporarily to make sure every site would have time to try it before it’s enabled for everyone. Now it’s enabled. If you have it enabled previously, nothing will change for you — your search widget is already updated. If you have the old search widget displayed on your site, this update will replace it with the new one. Please let us know if you have any trouble with the new widget. - **Fixed a minor issue with displaying store control panel on the Ecwid Dashboard page in Wordpress admin backend**. The control panel previously might be displayed with a horizontal scrolling. We fixed that — it should look fine now. - Layout fixes for the ZeroGravity Wordpress theme. = 4.9.3 = - **Fixed an issue with erroneous “Restore backup” messages in the editor in Wordpress admin backend.** One of the recent changes in our plugin made the WordPress editor display messages like “The backup of this post in your browser is different from the version below.” In fact, the messages did not mean there was a change that had not been not saved. The restore backup messages are normally hidden by Wordpress, but one of our CSS changes (editor page layout tweaks) made them appear. All your data is safe and the warning messages were displayed by mistake. We fixed them now and they should not appear anymore. = 4.9.2 = - **Improvements and fixes for the new "Add product" button in the Wordpress editor.** We recently added a tool for inserting a product from your store to any page or post on your site. In this update, we polished the tool look and feel, fixed a few issues and improved performance.

Feel free to enable and try the new search feature on the plugin settings (Ecwid Store -> Advanced) - **Improvement for the Single Sign On.** If you have Single Sign On (SSO) enabled in the plugin settings and your customer do not have name specified in their profile, the store account will use their nickname as the firstname. This will make store more friendly for your new buyers. (edited) = 4.9 = - **Integration with Wordpress search**. This new feature will make your ecommerce site search find store products among other site pages and posts. So, when your customer searches for something on your site, they will see both site content and store products in the search results and will be able to navigate directly to the product pages from there. Please enable it on the Ecwid/Advanced settings page in your Wordpress backend and do not forget to click "Synchronize products" link. The feature is now in beta stage and we are actively improving it. So if you face any trouble with it, please let us know. = 4.8 = - **New "Add product" button in the Wordpress post and page editor.** Now you have a useful and easy tool to place a product from your store on any page or post on your site. Just open any post or page in your Wordpress admin panel, click the "Add product" button in the editor, select the product you want to see on that page and click "Insert" – a product widget will appear on that page after you publish the chnages. The new "Add product" popup allows customizing the appearance of the widget so you can choose whether you want to see the picture along with title, price and quantity selector or just a simple Buy now button. Product widgets that you put on your site are seamlessly integrated with your store and shopping cart — wherever you place a product or buy now button on your site, the customers will be able to add it to the cart and proceed to checkout as if it was a regular store page. We recommend using product widgets and buy now buttons on every page or post where you mention the products or services you sell – this way you will provide an easy and natural way for a customer to know more about the product and buy it from the same page, be it a blog post, an "About" page, a testimonial or any other page on your ecommerce site. Enjoy! = 4.7.6 = - Fix for the legacy search shortcode ([ecwid_searchbox]), which was broken in the recent 4.7.5 release. = 4.7.5 = - **A few enhancements for the Wordpress brand new "Twenty Seventeen" theme.** Ecwid store page in that theme will look better with this update – we made the page layout a bit wider to make sure it's convenient for your buyers to navigate the catalog. - **Another improvement for the new Ecwid single product widget.** Now it's possible to use the "center_align=1" parameter in the shortcode to make the widget center aligned on the page. You may want to use that if you place one product widget per page – in this case, it will look better when center-aligned. An example shortcode: [ecwid_product id="12345" version=2 center_align=1]. Do not forget to replace 12345 in this example with the actual product ID. - Minor fixes for the "Trend" Wordpress theme. = 4.7.4 = - **WordPress 4.7 and Twenty Seventeen theme compatibility.** The new WordPress version with the 2017 theme is coming soon.

Do not forget to replace 12345 in this example with the actual product ID. - Fixed a bug with the floating shopping cart: the floating cart widget didn't appear on some rare Wordpress themes, we fixed that. Now it should work fine. = 4.7.2 = - **Added support for the Ecwid’s improved single product widgets.** To feature a single product on a separate page or blog post of your ecommerce site, you can use the [ecwid_product] shortcode. We improved the look and feel of the single product widgets in Ecwid and added those improvements to the single product shortcode version #2. You can use it like this: [ecwid_product id="12345" version=2]. Do not forget to replace 12345 in this example with the actual product ID. - **Fixed error messages appearing on some Wordpress sites with the "Trend" theme installed.** If you use Ecwid shopping cart with Trend theme and recently noticed an error message in your site admin backend, please use this update this update – it should fix that issue. = 4.7.1 = - Fixed a few warning messages appearing on some sites with the new version of the plugin. = 4.7 = - Fixed a layout issue in the floating cart widget in the "Mobius" WordPress theme. - Fixed a few issues with the Single Sign On functionality in the plugin. - Improvements for compatibility with GravityView plugin.

The widgets did not display and generated error/warning messages on the sites. We fixed that. - Another issue with the latest update is related to the legacy Ecwid shortcodes ([ecwid_script], [ecwid_productbrowser] etc). On the old installations (2 years old and more), the warning messages appeared – you might notice them on the store page. We now fixed this and everything should be fine, all Ecwid plugin installations work well. = 4.6 = - **Compatibility with the "Contact form 7 designer" plugin** . When installed, the "Contact form 7 designer" plugin adds its own code to the <html> and <body> tags on the page on every page of the site. This conflicted with Ecwid storefront styles. We fixed that – now if you use the both plugin t the same time, your site pages styles should work fine. Note: this plugin is not the same as the popular "Contact form 7". Ecwid ecommerce functionality works well with the latter, so don't worry if you use it on your site. - **Fix for a store links issue in the "Flora" theme by Wyde.** Users with "Flora" theme on their sites reported that there are glitches in the way Ecwid online store links behave in that theme. We fixed that – Ecwid now works well with "Flora". - **Compatibility with the "Trend" Wordpress theme.** Ecwid shopping cart is designed to work great with all WordPress themes. However, we sometimes see that Ecwid has troubles working with some AJAX-driven WordPress themes. We found a way to fix this and started working on improving the plugin.

If you find a theme that Ecwid has troubles with, please let us know – we'll fix that. - **Fixed a bug with the store menu item duplicates.** In a recent update, we fixed duplicate Store pages appearing when you deactivate and re-activate the plugin several times. In this release, we fixed a similar bug with the "Store" menu items. However often you enable/disable the plugin, the site navigation menu now works properly, keeping a single Store link, unless you deliberately add a few shop links to the menu (e.g. to have store category links in the menu). - Minor improvement and fixes to make the plugin more stable and user friendly. = 4.5 = - **Update in the Single Sign On Module (Ecwid SSO).** Single Sign-On allows your customers to have a single login for your WordPress site and your Ecwid store. We updated it to use the latest Ecwid ecommerce APIs to make it more convenient for you. Now the module doesn't require a separate API key – it works seamlessly with no extra setup. - **Compatibility with Divi builder editor.** Divi builder adds a nice WYSIWYG editor to the Wordpress admin. Ecwid shopping cart now is compatible with that editor – so you can add Ecwid store shortcode right from the Divi builder editor, no need to switch back to the default Wordpress editor if you prefer to use the Divi's one. - **Fix for a bug in the store appearance popup.** The store widgets settings were hidden when the "widgets" part was manually removed from the Ecwid shortcode in the page editor in Wordpress admin.
