WooCommerce Currency Switcher – WC 2.6 Support

/in ,

WooCommerce Currency Switcher – What’s new

Currency Switcher for WooCommerce has been updated to version

  • Compatibility with WooCommerce 2.6. Added support for the new shipping logic. Leveraged new woocommerce_shipping_zone_shipping_methods filter to ensure that shipping methods’ parameters are loaded in the correct currency.
  • Fixed bug in CloudFlare geolocation. In some cases, CloudFlare geolocation can incorrectly pass a lowercase country code. This can prevent the Currency Switcher, and several other plugins, from detecting visitor’s location correctly, as they expect an ISO ALPHA-2 code, which is uppercase. We added a patch to add this condition gracefully.
  • Fixed bug with minicart and “force currency by country” feature. The bug prevented the minicart from updating automatically when the “force currency by country” option was selected and the customer changed country using the selector widget.
  • Fixed bug in handling of coupons’ minimum and maximum prices. The bug prevented the limits from being converted properly, in some circumstances.
  • Improved WooCommerce version detection in reporting manager class. The class now uses a different logic to find out which reports to use, and returns more information if an unsupported version is found.

WP Rocket now supports Aelia Currency Switcher for WooCommerce

/in , ,

We have just been informed that WP Rocket 2.7 was released on the 11th March. Amongst the many improvements, in this version the WP Media team added native support for our Currency Switcher. That’s right: you can now use WP Rocket with our leading multi-currency solution, and our other WooCommerce plugins, out of the box, and there is no configuration required. They will simply work together.

WP Rocket + Aelia Currency Switcher = Lightning fast multi-currency shops

Praised by many as one of the best caching plugins on the market, in terms of speed and ease of use, WP Rocket is now an excellent choice for all the merchants who need to run busy, multi-currency WooCommerce shops and need top performance.

Thanks to its zero-configuration, smart integration, WP Rocket will detect our Currency Switcher for WooCommerce, automatically adjust its caching strategy to support multiple currencies, and serve the correct content to all visitors.

As added bonuses, WP Rocket now supports the additional features added by the Aelia plugins:

  • Geolocation
    Our products use a geolocation mechanism that we introduced long before the WC team introduced it in WooCommerce. Our solution is cache-friendly and provides better performance than the official one.
  • Prices by Country
    Customers will see the correct prices, prepared by our plugin depending on customer’s country.
  • Tax Display by Country
    Customers will  see prices including or excluding taxes, depending on customer’s country.

All the above, and more, is now available together with all the benefits of the powerful caching provided by WP Rocket.

Improving WooCommerce, together

This is the beginning of a new partnership between Aelia and WP Media. By combining the flexibility offered by our products and the performance provided by WP Rocket, we will bring the global market as close to you as possible, and expand your audience to its maximum potential.

As usual, be ready for more great news, coming soon!

WooCommerce Shipping Pricing for Currency Switcher – Support for WooCommerce 2.6

/in , ,

WooCommerce Shipping Pricing Integration – What’s new

Our Shipping Pricing Integration Add-on for WooCommerce Currency Switcher has been updated to version 1.2.1.160310. This update brings the following improvements and fixes:

  • Added support for WooCommerce 2.6. Version 2.6 of WooCommerce introduces the concept of shipping zones, and it allows to create multiple instances of each shipping method for each zone. The Shipping Pricing plugin fully supports this new feature. When used with WooCommerce 2.6, our plugin provides a convenient user interface where you can set the shipping costs for each combination of zone, shipping method, and currency. Below you can see the new multi-currency, zone-specific shipping pricing feature in action:

    That’s an amazing improvement!

  • Bug fix – Fixed edge condition that affected the calculation of flat rate shipping in WooCommerce 2.5 and later. The bug caused the message “no shipping method available” to appear if shipping costs were entered for a specific currency, saved and the “manual costs” flag was set to “disabled”.
  • Bug fix – Fixed initialisation of messages controller. The controller now uses the correct text domain.
  • Tweak – Excluded shipping method templates from autoloader’s class maps, to improve performance and reduce the possibility of conflicts.

First Data/AIB Authipay Gateway for WooCommerce – What’s new

Our First Data/Authipay Gateway has been updated to version 1.2.15.160215. This update brings the following improvements and fixes:

  • Fixed minor warnings in WooCommerce 2.5. The warnings were displayed on the payment page, and they did not affect the checkout process. However, they were unsightly.
