| v1.29.06 | | The Stock Sizes section of the admin system has been modified to enable users to delete unwanted sizes.
In an effort to assist users who use smaller displays or need to work with lower screen resolutions, the left hand navigation bar in the admin system has been modified so that only the sub-menu that the user is working with is displayed. This new technique will hopefully reduce the number of vertical page scrolls that the user needs to perform as they navigate round the various menus of the admin system.
The Quick Code Search facility on the front-end of the web site has been changed to allow visitors to search on product descriptions rather than product codes. To complete this change, the Quick Code Search text strings have also been changed to Quick Search.
A new Menu Items section has been added to the admin system. As certain aspects of the front-end system may be superfluous to the users needs, this new section enables the user to globally show or hide them from view. As of this version, the user can currently show or hide the About us menu, the Contact us menu, the Jargon Buster menu, the Our Terms menu, the Currencies menu, the Languages menu and the Manufacturers Contact Details menu.
As a consequence of this new Menu Items section, all of the Skins folders have been modified to suit.
The Email template heading in the admin system has been changed to Contact/Order Forms, Email.
The Countries section of the admin system has been modified to accommodate 2 new features named Zone and Tax Type respectively. These new features work in the following way:
Zone - this feature works with the Shipping Prices section so that the user can group a number of countries by a particular zone and then attribute one or more shipping price bands for this zone. By default, these zones have been preset to Zone 0 = UK, Zone 1 = EEC countries, Zone 2 = ROW countries, Zone 3 = unallocated, Zone 4 = unallocated and Zone 5 = unallocated.
Tax Type - this feature enables the user to set up how the system handles the tax for customers in different countries. By default, the tax types have been preset as follows:
UK Home users
(Tax Type 0)
charged at standard tax rate
UK Business users
(Tax Type 0)
charged at standard tax rate
EEC Home users
(Tax Type 1)
charged at standard tax rate
EEC Business users who have supplied a Tax Code
(Tax Type 1)
not charged tax
EEC Business users who have not supplied a Tax Code(Tax Type 1)
charged at standard tax rate
ROW Home users
(Tax Type 2)
not charged tax
ROW Business users
(Tax Type 2)
not charged tax
Please note that you can still hide the countries that you do not wish to deal with by changing their Available value to No.
The Shipping Prices section of the admin system has been modified to complement the new Zone feature in the Countries section. By default, all existing shipping prices have been preset to Zone 0.
