Bug fixes (31)

  • We made the editor button plugin compatible with Joomla 5.4
  • We've fixed an error at the end of checkout with affiliation on sales with a percentage amount.
  • We fixed a fatal error which could happen in really rare cases when loading an email after a status change.

  • We fixed a warning on the module edit screen in some rare cases.
  • We fixed the display of settings for triggers of other data tabs in some cases for mass actions.
  • In some rare cases, the module settings page could generate an error.
  • Following modifications in a previous release of HikaShop, the price of options could be, in some cases, calculated incorrectly during the creation of the order at the end of the checkout, leading to the subtotal and total having the wrong value in the order / invoice / emails.
  • In some rare cases, the module settings page could generate an error.
  • We fixed the vote mechanism in some rare cases on the product details page.
  • We fixed potential deprecated messages with PDO on PHP 8.3 during the order saving process.
  • We fixed a warning with the order mass actions.
  • We fixed a column issue on the products listing of the order edit page in the backend when the user has configured custom product fields to be displayed there and the products have values in them.
  • The price calculated for options of products in the cart with the "group options with product" setting turned on could be wrong in some cases.
  • Following changes in the previous version of HikaShop, there was a error with the upload of files on custom fields on the frontend.
  • The calculation of the number of packages necessary for the shipping was not correct in the USPS plugin.
  • We fixed a deprecated message on the product page in some rare cases with PHP 8.2
  • The support of the view builder for the order edit page in the backend led to a display issue with the products listing when no custom product fields were visible.
  • There were some warnings with mass actions on orders with a "after an order is updated" trigger with the previous version.
  • The sorting of shipping services would not work properly in some cases.
  • We fixed an error which could happen during the saving of a product with characteristics if a massaction was configured with a trigger to run during the product saving and with a filter on the characteristics.
  • The auto open feature of the cart module might not work in some cases when adding the first product to the cart.
  • During the indexing of products for the Smart Search, the HikaShop Smart Search plugin will now look for menu items in the target language of the content being indexed instead of menu items in the current language. This will avoid errors on the frontend when the alias of the menu item in the URL of the product doesn't match with its language in the search results of the Smart Search.
  • We fixed an error which could happen in some cases with the upload of files in the backend resulting in the process failing.
  • The selection of a category with a single quote in the backend selector popup of category filters wouldn't work properly.
  • The cart drawer mode would shift the page by a few pixel when it would close and open.
  • When the cart module would have its auto open setting activated, it would open during the checkout when doing checkout actions while it is not necessary there since the customer is already on the checkout.
  • The edit /creation of modules of the type HikaShop content module didn't work properly on Joomla 6.
  • We've added missing position code to the bootstrap registration view file.
  • The modifications for the support of Joomla 6 lead to a problem with the editor button on Joomla 3 with the JCE editor.

Improvements (12)

  • The vote & comment system will now display an error message when the user tries to post a comment while having selected something for the vote but not entered anything for the comment.
  • We've switched to CSS grid for listings in HikaShop. This means a smoother experience for the user, while using more modern CSS code, with less boilerplate code. We don't expect backward compatibility issue with this.
  • We've improved the layout of the orders listing filters in the backend.
  • We've improved the responsiveness of listing pages in the backend.
  • We've improved the responsiveness of the backend dashboard.
  • We've improved the loading of plugin data to rely, when possible of the plugin data cache of Joomla.
  • We've greatly improved many of the translation files for HikaShop.
  • We've added an index on the category_alias and product_alias columns in the database in order to improve page load in some cases with the "Remove products and categories id in URLs" setting of the HikaShop configuration turned on.
  • We've improved the wording for the API Key settings of the Geolocation plugin.
  • We've added two new columns order_shipped and order_delivered in the hikashop_order table in order to store the date when orders are shipped and when they are delivered.
  • The dark mode was not supported properly when editing the settings of HikaShop modules via the Joomla modules manager.
  • We've added ids and classes to the cart view on the checkout for easier styling and JS code customization.

New features (16)

  • We've added a new "export fields" setting to the HikaShop configuration page to be able to select which columns to export when using the "Export" buttons of products and orders listings in the backend.

With it, you'll be able to customize your HikaShop dashboard in many ways: modify the settings of the default widgets, add new widgets, rearrange the widgets, the layout of the dashboard, add reports, etc. You'll also be able to export your layout, import a layout file, and load preset layouts.
  • We've added a scroll to code button in the view builder of views for easier customization.

  • We've added a new trigger "on MCP request" to mass actions.
