Milestones

For new APIs, the structure has been revised to help you simply and efficiently manage updates to all of your modules. The APIs automatically check to ensure that you always have the latest versions.

The integrated customer service feature is being greatly improved to centralize all of your messages from different sources. You will no longer struggle to find a message through multiple different areas of your shop and email. They will all be combined into a single tab.

Manage your cart's pricing rules easily, with an ergonomic interface for any merchant. It will be easy to provide discounts on items in your customers cart. A convenient way to make promotional offers stand out to your customers (e.g. Buy two items, get the third for one euro ...)!

For greater efficiency, PrestaShop will now include an inventory management that will allow you to discern your physical stock and your available quantities for sale in shop(s). You will be able to manage your physical stock in various warehouses, generate supply orders and have a view of your stock through clear and specific interfaces. This inventory management will be natively compatible with the new multi-store feature.
Finally, for flexibility in managing customer orders, partial deliveries will now be available.

The editing commands in Back Office have been optimized and relaxed. You will be able to modify shopping carts or products already ordered. You'll also be able to place orders from the back office, allowing you to help your customers make purchases on your site (e.g. when they contact you by phone).

We have made selling downloadable products (photos, music, computer files, etc...) easier. You will be able to manage the variations of products and can even create packages of multiple downloadable products. The file upload process is also improved in order to quickly put your products online.

We're making installing your PrestaShop store a breeze. Now you'll have the option to download only what you need (language, taxes, etc…). The installation process is being optimized and you will receive a performance shop tailored specifically to your needs.

Some parts of PrestaShop's core software will be rewritten to meet the MVC pattern and the object paradigm. This will make it even easier for all developers using PrestaShop.

With options for multiple currencies, multiple languages and multiple domains, multi-store management will be complete, efficient and integrated into PrestaShop. Multi-store will allow any merchant, regardless of its size to manage multiple stores from a single Back Office.

Several improvements are being made on all matters relating to the location: change engine pdf, improving the tax management, taking account of local... PrestaShop will be specifically optimized for the majority of countries and the specific laws that affect them.

With an improved, ergonomic back office and an updated graphical layout and design, it will be even more pleasant and convenient to manage your shop daily. The new Back Office also respects the MVC pattern to allow developers to quickly make customizations.

The customer experience will be improved, including the order process and the most comprehensive product descriptions, as well as a more attractive basic home page.

The storage of billing information in the database is being revised to be much more efficient, especially for the allocation of taxes and discounts in the cart.

The calculation of shipping based on your cart is being improved. This will make it easier to implement custom shipping policies which will differ depending on the products and promotions in your catalog.
