Content Template updates
The introduction of our Content Templates was arguably our biggest impact development of the last 12 months. Scores of customers have already incorporated this game-changing functionality into their storefronts.
Since their initial release, we've identified ways to further improve our various default Content Templates. These updates have now been implemented and rolled out for our users to enjoy.
Haven't used Content Templates yet? Find out more about them below.
How do I get the latest versions of Content Templates?
Your Content Templates will not be automatically updated to the latest versions. Instead, you will need to manually resave the areas utilising them. For example, editable content blocks or content pages.
Check out the quick guide below to see how to update to the latest Content Templates.
Going green
At Infigo, we have a firm commitment to reducing our carbon footprint. In May, we introduced an integration with tree planting service, MoreTrees. The first time any storefront on an Infigo platform goes live, we will automatically request the planting of a tree via MoreTrees.
You, as the Infigo user, don't need to do anything to facilitate this. What's more, you can keep track of how many trees your Infigo platform has planted.
Navigate to Configuration > Storefront Management and expand the Portal Info section.
Underneath "Our Pledge" you will see the number of trees planted as a direct result of your platform!
Need to know how to set your storefront to Live? We've got you covered.
printIQ product sync
This feature is a potential game-changer for Infigo customers using the Connect: printIQ plugin. We have recently introduced a product and category sync feature in the Connect: printIQ plugin, allowing for simple transfer of data between the two systems.
Product Sync Feature:
- The product sync feature streamlines the creation and management of products across printIQ and Infigo platforms.
- Users can create products in printIQ and sync them to Infigo, eliminating the need for manual duplication and saving valuable time.
- It allows for seamless syncing of product information such as name, description, activation status, SKU, dimensions, and images.
Category Sync Feature:
- The category sync feature enables the synchronization of categories between printIQ and Infigo platforms.
- Users can create categories in printIQ and sync them to Infigo, ensuring consistency and uniformity across platforms.
- It simplifies the process of categorizing products by allowing users to sync category information such as name, description, and hierarchy.
The video above will give you an insight into how to set up this functionality. However, keep an eye out for future content, where we'll be going into this ground-breaking feature in more detail.
Hotfolder improvements
You may be asking "What is a Hotfolder in Infigo?" - We have a few handy videos to help you out with this on the Infigo Academy YouTube channel. Click >>here<<
May saw the release of several new Hotfolder related features, including:
- Batch data (such as csv documents uploaded to populate MegaEdit products) can now be downloaded from Shared Print Operations, or automatically copied to specified hot folders
- Improved support for placing job related documents into hot folders (such as packaging slips)
- Additional filename support
- Improvements to Shared Print Operations with relation to hot folders
Approval workflow enhancements
New to Approval Workflows in Infigo? We've got you covered on the Infigo Academy channel. Click >>here<<
Infigo have introduced the ability to configure more granular rules around controlling what orders and order line items should go through approval.
Historically, approval has been an on/off switch where the only fine control was to enable it per product and to allow some people to bypass it entirely.
The Approval Workflow Advance Requirement Rules feature provides access to a whole series of rules that you can configure ranging from approval based on order quantities, shipping fees and order totals.
NOTE: This feature may not be available in your platform by default. Please contact Customer Support for more information on gaining access to this feature.
Select delivery time during checkout
We have added the ability to specify a delivery time, in addition to the date. This data can also be sent to the Connect: Tharstern plugin.
Address validation during checkout
We have added two new settings, enabling only valid addresses to be selected during the checkout process.
Setting Name: Validate shipping addresses
Location: Customer Settings > Billing and Delivery Address Configuration
Setting Name: Validate billing addresses
Location: Customer Settings > Billing and Delivery Address Configuration
This setting works in conjunction with the "required" fields available above it. If a pre-existing address does not meet these criteria, then a warning message will be displayed to the end user during checkout.
