[Update]: Due to some unexpected issues we have decided to postpone the release for Thursday, January 21st
Wednesday, January 20st, at 11:00 UTC, we will update the Business Catalyst service to include some improvements and minor bug fixes. Please find below the detailed list of changes included in the update:
- Implemented break and continue statement for liquid loops
- Added a new liquid filter (date_add) allowing users to perform date add / subtract operations
- Updated geocoding database for more accurate map positioning
- Added client side caching on REST APIs so that customers can benefit from increased performance on subsequent requests
- 2766779 - Fixed a bug causing catalog import to create incorrect SEO friendly URL for catalogs when importing multi-level catalogs
- 3733037, 3829379, 4105262 - fixed some issues preventing the system from sending invitation emails on some cases
- Updated customer list back-end infrastructure to improve performance and prevent time outs when handling large customer lists. List sorting and filtering works as before if the site has less than 100,000 contacts. Above 100,000 the list will automatically be sorted by Name ascending. Additionally, we have replaced the export mechanism with the one currently used for web apps and products and added a max export limit (500,000 items); If a site has more items, they can be exported in chunks (like products and web apps)
- Added some additional anti-spam checks on email campaigns. As such, a newly upgraded site will not be able to automatically send campaigns to more than 2000 subscribers (this will require approval by our support team). Additionally, users cannot send a test email to more than 5 email addresses nor can send more than 1 test email per minute.
- Updated CRM forecasting filters to add current (and future) years
- Labels update on webBasics and webBasics+ plan to clearly specify a site is in trial mode
- Updated the Authorize.NET integration to update some URLs
- Fixed a bug preventing users from validating passwords including some special characters
- 4104715 - Fixed an issue that was generating an incorrect help and support URL
