BC4WP Banner

BC4WP 4.12.0 Release

4.12.0 dropped this week and is available in the WordPress repository. There are some cool new features in this release:

Added

  • Support for fetching products by SKU via query and shortcode.
  • Added “Product Sync Log” section to the Settings > Diagnostics panel in the
    WP Admin. This shows the last 10 sync attempts and their result.
  • Added support for Banners via the Banners API to import and use custom banners from the BC store
    within your WordPress site.

Changed

  • Updated gallery thumbnail active slide functionality when triggering SKU specific images.
  • Updated “Checkout Complete” page assignment in Settings. Allows for any page to be used,
    as the checkout complete page.

I’m particularly excited about the sync log, because previously there wasn’t really a way to know what happened if a sync failed.

Personally I’m unsure about the Banners feature. Being a WordPress dev first I’m more inclined to use a WordPress solution, but I can see how if you have a bunch of banners already set up in BigCommerce you might want to just use them.

If you find any issues, be sure to report them on github!
