A few little add-ins

Monday, September 22nd, 2008

Hi all,

Just a few little add-ins based on your blog comments. These apply to both HCM and HCS:

  • When you view the order details page, you’ll see a link that says “Printable page.” This will take you to a page with no extraneous html on it — just the order details. Hopefully this prints out okay and serves as a good packing slip.
  • When you have viewed an order, a little gray checkmark appears next to it, so you can keep track of what’s been viewed and what hasn’t

Hope that helps! Thanks all :)

Vendor page redesign!

Friday, September 19th, 2008

I am very excited to announce that the vendor pages, both HCS and HCM, have been redesigned to fit with HC’s new look. I really hope you find this as much of an improvement as I do. The pages are more usable, more attractive, and much more professional-looking.

In addition to the new look, the following improvements / bug fixes were made:

HCS:

  • Added batch editing for quantities, descriptions and shipping options (see Product Listings >> Batch edit
  • Added Completed, Shipped, and Cancelled options to order status in addition to New and Paid
  • Changed “Add item” listing page so all the other listings aren’t shown, just the form to add the item

HCM:

  • Fixed bug that didn’t allow IE users to change order status
  • Fixed bug that caused IE to hang if item was added without category being chosen

Both carts:

  • Drop-down menu with logical grouping of vendor files
  • Changed image uploading code so images can now be added directly while creating a new listing, rather than having to create the listing first and then modify it. This also fixes the bug where tags were being lost after uploading images
  • Added RSS feed to HC Blog on vendor welcome page
  • Moved payment to separate page rather than having it show at the footer of every page
  • Added “Delete store” request on “Make changes” page

Hopefully you can still find your way around the pages ok. I know it will take some getting used to, but like I said, I’m hoping you will eventually view it as an improvement!

Remember, you can comment or ask questions directly here on the Blog.

Thanks everyone! Have a great Hyena evening!
