WooCommerce First Data/Authipay Gateway – Maintenance update

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.
  • Dropped support for WooCommerce 1.6. There are virtually no shops running that old version of WooCommerce, therefore we decided to drop compatibility with it.

 

How do I get the new version?

The Wholesale Plugin joins the multi-currency family

We have been informed by our colleagues at Rymera Web Co that their Wholesale Pricing plugin now includes native support for our popular Currency Switcher for WooCommerce. This means that you will be able to take advantage of the multi-currency features provided by our plugin when setting wholesale prices, making your pricing strategy more flexible than ever.

If you are a customer, and would like to enjoy the benefits of a multi-currency shop, but you use one or more incompatible plugins, simply contact the plugins’ authors. Let them know how important it is to support multiple currencies, in a global market, and ask them to add support for it in their products. Tell them that they can contact us at any time, and we will help them getting started in no time.

Acknowledgements

We would like to thank the Rymera Web Co team for the effort they put in developing the integration with our Currency Switcher for WooCommerce. Having their product join the ever growing family of multi-currency plugins surely involved a lot of work, and it will contribute to strengthen our cause. We are steadily growing, and soon having multiple currencies will become the standard.

Thanks to you all, customers and developers, for your invaluable support and efforts!

WooCommerce 2.5 – Product Compatibility Status

WooThemes released WooCommerce 2.5 on the 18th January 2016. We started our testing process with WooCommerce 2.5 Beta1 and repeated it with RC2, to ensure the best possible compatibility with our plugins.

As of today, we haven’t encountered specific issues. We will keep testing new versions of WooCommerce in the next weeks, to check if any change could cause compatibility issues.

Important

It’s important to install WooCommerce 2.5 on a test site first. Check that all installed plugins are working correctly, run some end to end test and verify that all orders are processed correctly. If everything works fine, you can update your live site.

Compatibility status

Currency Switcher

Our WooCommerce Currency Switcher is compatible with WooCommerce 2.5. We recommend to update it to its latest version, 3.9.1.160118, to take advantage of a new filter introduced in WooCommerce. The filter will hook into shipping calculations, to ensure that formulas involving cart totals are processed correctly.

Currency Switcher Add-ons

Tax Display by Country

Compatible. The changes added to WooCommerce 2.5.x should not affect this product.

Prices by Country

Compatible.

Payment Gateways

EU VAT Assistant

Compatible since version 1.5.0.151109.

Blacklister

Compatible. This plugin should not be affected by the changes in WooCommerce 2.5.

It’s our policy to continuously test our products to make sure that any issue which might still exist is found and fixed quickly. Should you find any, please feel free to report it using our support portal: Aelia Support Portal. Thanks for your time and collaboration.

WooCommerce PayPal Standard Multi-Account – Code cleanup

PayPal Multi-Account for WooCommerce – What’s new

Our PayPal Standard Multi-Account Gateway for WooCommerce has been updated to version 1.2.6.151208. This update brings the following improvements and fixes:

  • Removed call to an obsolete function. In the last version of the the PayPal Multi-account plugin we inadvertently left a call to an internal function that we had removed. This doesn’t always cause issues, but it might throw an error if the Subscriptions plugin is installed. This update removes the obsolete call.

WooCommerce Shipping Pricing for Currency Switcher – Improved compatibility

WooCommerce Shipping Pricing Integration – What’s new

Our Shipping Pricing Integration Add-on for WooCommerce Currency Switcher has been updated to version 1.1.15.151015. This update brings the following improvements and fixes:

  • Improved cross-compatibility of logic used to override shipping methods. The new logic is compatible with shipping plugins that instantiate a class before our plugin’s filters are executed. This improvement allows plugins like Weight Based Shipping Pricing plugin to work correctly.
  • Fixed initialisation of settings for Table Rates Shipping prices for base currency. The initialisation process now copies all the base currency prices to the appropriate tab automatically, removing the need to re-enter them manually.
  • Improved logic used to extend shipping methods. Covered edge case scenario in which an external plugin replaces the original list of shipping classes with instances of the same.
  • Improved error checking during the initialisation of shipping methods. Fixed edge condition that could trigger infinite loops.
