Recent eShop upgrade?

bonzaman — Thu, 05 Jul 2012 12:38:40 GMT

Hi,

Please can you advise if epages has recently been upgraded and if so, when this was peformed. I notice that the current version we are now using is epages 6.13.3.

As previous upgrades have had an impact in one way or another to our website it would be appreciated if pre-notifications can be provided prior to upgrades taking place.

Thanks

I'll answer my own question! Yes, there has been an upgrade and I thought I would share with eShop customers an excellent improvement to the checkout/basket setting incase you were not aware of this.

Browse to 'Settings > Basket Settings >

then under 'Order Process' change to 'In individual steps'. This provides a much improved checkout process compared to the awful default setting in which numerous sales have shown as being dropped out on the basket page as shown in our Google Analytics analysis.

Hope this helps!
