When is v4.16.2.b available?

[Undercover]

I noticed that the demo site has some changes that  I cant see in the current v4.16.2.a. Does that mean there is a new version? and if so then why cant I see it in my upgrade centre? I am currently on v4.16.2.a.

@Undercover We are glad to see you are attentive to our workflow. You are right, the demo site has some newest changes and it was done to improve our theme in real conditions. You can be sure that you will get a new version of the theme soon. Hope to get feedback about our work from you when you update the theme. For now, please, wait a little bit for the release.

Seems really cool. 2 things:

1) Is it necessary to have 2 categorry buttons in the header?

2) I haven't seen the bug fix with images changing on hoover for feature pages (Ticket: 

TJA-GEM-7ZLU) Will you release the bug fix in 4.16.2.b?

[alexbranding]

We are adding new feature on demo, so soon we will open release with video for new functions.

About two catalogues in menus: it will be one )) we will change it soon (new element for fly menu as button for main category menu is added)

Sorry but which 2 category buttons in the header? Which demo layout are you referring to?

[Undercover]

So far in the demo I welcome these changes you’ve implemented.

1. Redesign of the contact tab in the header. When a user clicks on the phone icon the info is displayed nicely in a narrow block. Not too wide like before.

* But was it necessary to add a light grey rounded colour to the icon?  I would have preferred it the way it was before.

2. I welcome the blur under the heart icon when the image product extends behind it.

3.  I welcome the mini thumbnails in mobile view.

* But it’s difficult to tell which mini thumbnail is active because the fade on non-activated thumbnails is too faint.

4.  Nothing dramatic has been done to the light scroller. I was hoping to see the ability to show features in the light scroller just like in the grid view. Since the product  in grid view is just the same size as the light scroller it would have made sense if functionalities matched.

5. After a lot of people in this community asked for a “view all” text link that shows at the end of the heading of the featured collection, I was hoping to finally see it in this version. Right now all I see is the old “Now in demand” and nothing that says “view all”. This is really sad

The developer checked the case that you described in this ticket and came to the conclusion that this is not a theme bug - as he wrote, "CS-Cart does not provide product images on such pages." Therefore, it was decided to leave it as it is.

@Undercover along with new release, a complete changelog will be available - there you can see what is included in the release.

Ok. So should I write a ticket directly to cs-cart about it? If yes, could you reply in the ticket what information should I attach and what exactly is the problem?

 

Thanks in advance

I will ask the developer for specific details on this issue and write to you.

@Jacek it's very easy to check it yourself.

1) first you need to create a clean demo site.

https://demos.abt.team/?lang_code=en

Choose any one innocent addon,

http://i.abt.team/serj/20230705_170100.jpg

then uninstall it.

http://i.abt.team/serj/20230705_170217.jpg

Now this demo does not contain any of our products and influences.

2) change theme to standard Responsive;

3) open category page and you can see that the products have a gallery with multiple images

http://i.abt.team/serj/20230705_171849.jpg

But if you open the brand page, you will see that all products have only one image.

http://i.abt.team/serj/20230705_172207.jpg

 

Why this is happening is up to you to find out with CS-Cart support.
Unfortunately, the study leads deep into the CS-Cart core, which is completely beyond the scope of our competence.

If this issue is fixed in core, the image swiping in our theme should also work on these pages.

It will be released in next releases.

This release has 100+ items in changelog. Sorry but its not real to cover all wishes from all users. But if you really need any additional functionality with hight priority - we are always ready to make you custom dev on a payment basis (urgently will get any idea in your store) and after we will include it to release for all. A lot of features were added by this way.

look now on fly menu on https://unitheme.net/ and you will see a Categories button in it but not categories list. Click the button, you will see what will happen.

So there are two category icons. One in the top header with a redesigned style: when I tap on it I see categories only.
The second one is the menu in the bottom sticky with old style: when I click on that nothing happens. Is that what you guys are discussing?

I understand that not all wishes can be met, but this particular feature has a lot of upvotes that was why I thought it would be featured in this release.

Regarding paying for new features, it’s awesome that you have that option.  But my problem is that a shop owner pays hundreds to a thousand dollars for a new feature because they want to differentiate themselves in a competitive market, then later that feature is pushed in a global update for everyone who paid zero. 
 

To tackle that issue I would propose a cloud fund for a high in demand complex feature.
1. Create a poll here to get votes

2. Move the request to a cloud funding platform.

3. Unitheme licence holders can fund the feature.
4. When funds reached then only those who contributed will have access to the addon . 
And If the goal hasn’t been reached then they get refunded.

@alexbrandingIn the updated demo with advanced layout and three columned view, the brand is touching elements of the buy now with one click. See screenshot attached.

@Undercover Thanks a lot. We will fix it!
