    Merchello 1.9.0 Release

    Merchello 1.9.0

    Features

    Adds additional payment features through the back office

    Payment providers may now include dialogs to handle void, refund, and capture payments (when no payment is present) through the back office.

    Note: You should test your installed payment providers before upgrading your production environment. Conceptually they should just work, but independent payment providers may not have been tested."

    Offers (Coupons)

    We've added the concept of an offer which is an abstraction that developers can use to implement different sorts of discounts as well as conceptually other types of "offers." Offers are configurable through a new back office section in Merchello named "Marketing".

    Included in the Merchello.Core we've included a Coupon Provider - "Coupons" and a new Coupon Editor page which should allow editors to create quite a few different types of coupon offers. The system is based off a single reward (like % off or FREE shipping) that can be optionally constrained by one or more constraints APPLIED IN A CONFIGURABLE ORDER.

    It is conceptually a complicated system, but it is extremely flexible.

    Both rewards and constraints are resolvable, so if you do not find what you are looking for, you can roll your own. If this is something you are interested in trying, checkout the classes we've included in Merchello located in the Merchello.Web.Discounts.Coupons namespace.

    Please start discussions in the Merchello forum https://our.umbraco.org/projects/collaboration/merchello/merchello/ if you have questions and post any issues at http://issues.merchello.com

    Upgrade Notes

    • Copy over Merchello binaries (dlls) in the bin directory.
    • Copy over the App_Plugins/Merchello directory (note if you have made any configuration changes in the merchello.config make sure to retain those).
    • Add new language keys to the Umbraco's language file(s) /Umbraco/Config/Lang/ - I usually just overwrite all of Merchello's areas rather than trying to merge them.

    Moving forward

    At CodeGarden I sat through an awesome presentation by Sebastiaan Janssen & Chriztian Steinmeier http://codegarden15.com/sessions/contributing-to-the-core/ and got some ideas how to make things easier for us. I've started a merchello-dev branch in the main repository which we will do all of our future work. We will continue to merge into specific version branches upon release and merge each current releases which will get merged into the merchello-dev branch when ready into the master branch. We will continue to work on larger features in feature branches.
