What’s new in v.1.14.9 - November 26, 2024
New Features:
- Google Analytics 4 - A new setting was added that allows for swapping the load order for the Google Tag Manager initialization script and the dataLayer script. Depending on store setup, speed, and other factors, you may experience more accurate client-side tracking one way or the other.
- Google XML Sitemap - The extension now comes with two new Magento Admin configuration options that allow for setting INDEX/FOLLOW (or NOINDEX/NOFOLLOW) values for Category and Search Pages with Layered Navigation Filters applied. This increases the extension's SEO optimization capabilities.
- Instagram Widget - Updated the Instagram Widget extension to use Instagram's new API. Instagram's Basic Display API is due to be deprecated on December 4th, 2024, meaning all apps that use this API will become obsolete. Our extension is now fully integrated with the new API and will retain all current functionality.
- Product Labels - Added a new Magento Admin option that allows for setting Product Page label configurations to be the same as the ones used for the Category Page, eliminating the need to reconfigure the same settings in cases in which the same label is used for both.
- Social Login - The extension once again benefits from the Instagram Login functionality, which was previously deprecated due to Instagram's API being retired. Instagram has recently released a new API which permits using the login functionality again, which our module now benefits from.
- Newsletter - Added a new Magento Admin configuration option to allow for hiding the Newsletter Trigger Button on mobile devices for better user experience.
- Quick Cart - Added a new option that allows for displaying the Grand Total in the Quick Cart, which is extremely useful when the store has active Cart Price rules, or when a discount code is added via the Quick Cart. When this option is enabled, the discount value and Grand Total is displayed in the Quick Cart, informing the customer how much they save.
