Hello Website Forge community. I'm sure you are all preparing for your Thanksgiving feast. Here is a quick update on features added to Website Forge the following couple weeks.
1) We have added new tax application rules. One can now control whether each particular tax is based on billing or shipping address, apply tax to products shipped FROM particular source and with particular value in a field (possible to have different "Tax Exempt"-like fields for different taxes). This will help those who have troubles with new California tax configurations.
2) For sites selling photos, the parent product can now be excluded from shipping (a collage or other processing work) while child products (prints) can be shippable.
3) Recently Viewed Items. You can set up an item list with "Affected By" = "Recently Viewed items". So you can show a list of recently viewed products anywhere.
4) Improvements allowing to export large numbers of orders at once. For high volume sites exporting orders for UPS or other label printing systems.
5) When using virtual wallet / gift certificates, they are enabled by default on the checkout screen and a gift box icon is shown near the note (for those people who may not see the text.
6) Color palette selector for label/value formatting in layout builder. Also can set the Control Line to display buttons one under another (not in one line).
Thanks for all your support and have a Happy Thanksgiving.
