Meet PromoCards: static banner cards that sit in fixed spots around your storefront. Unlike Carousels, which rotate, all your cards are visible at once — ideal for showing multiple promotions, category shortcuts, trust badges, or feature blocks side by side.

Four places cards can live:

• Page Top — Below the hero/cover at the top of your storefront.
• Category Top — Between a category's title and its items (per category you pick).
• Category Bottom — Under a specific category's items.
• Page Bottom — Above the footer at the bottom of the page.

Eight grid layouts: 1 full-width, 2 equal, 1/3+2/3, 2/3+1/3, 3, 4, 5, or 6 columns. Each layout shows a small visual preview in the picker so you can see what you'll get.

Three card styles:

• Stacked — image on top, text below (good for product-style cards)
• Overlay — text sits on the image (good for visual heroes)
• Beside — image on the left, text on the right (good for text-heavy cards)

Three card heights (Compact 2:1, Normal 16:9, Tall 3:2) and a Mobile Columns override so you can force a specific column count on phones — for example, keep a 4-col layout at 2 columns on mobile.

Other goodies:

• Leave button text blank and only fill the URL to make the whole card clickable.
• Schedule a group with start/end dates for time-limited promos.
• Show/hide based on business hours.
• Drag-to-reorder groups and cards.
• Multiple groups can share the same slot — they stack in the order you set.

Enable it in Settings → Apps → PromoCards. Once on, a PromoCards entry appears in your sidebar. Works on Spreader and the default template.

Two PromoCards quirks fixed in this release.

1-column cards now match the height preset you pick.

Before: choosing a 1-column layout caused cards to ignore your Card Height setting and stretch much taller than expected — a "Compact" 1-column hero could end up 600+ pixels tall on desktop. The other layouts (2-col, 3-col, 4-col, asymmetric) were unaffected.

Now 1-column cards size correctly to the preset:

• Compact — slim banner (~200px tall)
• Normal — standard hero (~280px tall)
• Tall — prominent hero (~360px tall)
• Vertical — full portrait hero (~480px tall)

If your existing 1-column cards looked too tall, they should now display at the right size automatically. No re-save needed.

Image cropping now follows the live card shape, not the shape at upload time.

Previously, when you uploaded an image to a card, the system pre-cropped it to match the group's current Card Height ratio (e.g. 16:9 for Normal, 3:4 for Vertical). If you later changed Card Height, the existing card images stayed cropped at the old ratio — so a Normal-sized image that you flipped to Vertical would show a wide-short slice of the original.

We've removed the server-side crop entirely. Uploaded images are now stored at their full source proportions (just resized so the long edge stays under 2000px on desktop / 1200px on mobile to keep file sizes sane). The visible crop happens at display time via your browser's native image-fit logic, so:

• Switching Card Height (Compact ↔ Normal ↔ Tall ↔ Vertical) immediately re-renders existing cards at the new shape — no re-upload.
• Mixing the same image across groups with different Card Heights now works as expected.
• For Vertical cards, your portrait sources finally show as portrait instead of being flattened into the previously hard-coded crop.

Note for cards uploaded before this update: their stored images are still in the old pre-cropped shape. They'll display center-cropped through the new logic, which works for most images but won't recover detail that was cut off during the original crop. Re-upload any card image that looks off and the new full-aspect storage takes over.

Opening an order, you'll now see Order Status and Payment Status as two compact badges right under the order number at the top of the page — not as separate cards on the right. One click on the badge opens a short list; one more click changes the status. The old "pick from a dropdown, then press Update" flow is gone — the list itself is the update.

Why the change: the right-hand column of the order details page was getting long as more order-related apps installed cards there (delivery, notes, print history, WhatsApp templates…). Status and payment are the two things you change on almost every order, so they belong next to the order number, not buried six cards down.

Loyalty still works the same way. If your loyalty program awards points on a specific step — accepted, closed, or paid — that option now shows a small Assigns points pill next to it in the dropdown, so you can see exactly which click triggers points before you make it. The confirmation prompt before marking as Paid still appears when loyalty points are tied to payment.

Nothing changed about who can edit — only Owner and Staff can change status, same as before.

If you have more than one third-party courier connected — say, both Lalamove and Detrack — the order details page no longer stacks a full dispatch card for each one. You'll find a compact Delivery dropdown in the header row next to Order Status and Payment Status. Open it, pick the provider you want to use for this order, and only that provider's card appears below.

Why: operators were staring at two tall dispatch panels on every delivery, even when they'd already decided which courier to use. A quick pick-from-dropdown replaces the "scroll past the Lalamove form to find the Detrack button" flow, and keeps the right column lean for the 90% of orders where the choice is obvious.

What stays the same:

• If you only have one third-party courier connected, the dropdown doesn't appear — that courier's card renders as usual. Nothing to click.
• On pickup and dine-in orders, the dropdown doesn't appear either — it only shows for delivery orders.
• Once a booking is live (you've got a tracking ID), the Delivery chip locks to show which courier is handling the order. To switch couriers after that, cancel the existing booking first.

To change your pick before engaging (i.e. before you've quoted Lalamove or created a Detrack job), just open the dropdown and choose a different provider — the cards swap automatically.

Three right-column cards on the order details page — Order Note, Print history, and WhatsApp Customer — now collapse by default with a header summary. Click the header to expand any one when you need to edit or inspect.

What you see now:

• Order Note — header badge shows how many of your note fields are filled, like 2 / 3. Green if anything's filled, grey if empty. If any note is already filled, the card auto-expands so you see the content without an extra click; if nothing is filled, it stays collapsed.
• Print history — header shows 5 Printed — or, when something went wrong, also 1 Failed in red. If there's a failure, the card auto-expands so you don't miss it; otherwise it stays collapsed until you click.
• WhatsApp Customer — simple collapse. Click to expand the composer when you actually want to send a message; stays out of the way otherwise, since most orders don't need a manual WhatsApp.

The same right column that used to stack five or six tall cards now sits mostly compact, with the detail appearing only where you're actually working. Delivery cards are handled separately — you still see the one handling each order's dispatch.

Order Note fields are still saved the same way (edit, press Update). Print history still keeps the most recent 10 attempts per order. WhatsApp Customer still opens WhatsApp Web with your template filled in. Nothing changed about what the cards do — only how much room they take up when you're not using them.

Your storefront footer can now link to 19 social, review, and messaging channels — up from the original seven. The editor moved from Settings > Apps > Social Platforms (retired) to Templates > Template Settings > Social Links, alongside your cover photo and copyright text.

What's new beyond the old list:

• Social networks — Threads, LinkedIn, Pinterest
• Video — Snapchat
• Messaging — WhatsApp, Telegram, Line
• Reviews & directories — Google Business Profile, TripAdvisor
• Community & audio — Discord, Spotify
• Professional — GitHub

You can also reorder the icons now: the list in the editor is the order visitors see in your footer. Use the up/down buttons on each row to shuffle.

If you'd already set up any of the original seven (Facebook, Instagram, X, YouTube, TikTok, Rednote, Website), they carried over automatically — the new editor pre-fills them on first open. Nothing to redo.

Formatting you write in a page or product description now matches what your customers see. Tables, line breaks, strikethrough, quoted text, and code snippets all render correctly on your storefront.

What's new in Pages:

• Tables — write a markdown table with | pipes or paste one in, and it renders on your storefront as a proper table with borders, a header row, and clean spacing. Before today, the raw | characters were showing up on the published page.
• Line breaks — pressing Enter once in the editor now produces a visible line break. Previously, single line breaks were silently merged and the next line just continued the paragraph.
• Strikethrough — ~~like this~~ now shows with a line through it, whether you use the toolbar button or type the markdown syntax.
• Quoted text and code — blockquotes render with an indented quote bar, inline code and code blocks get a subtle background so they stand out from body text.
• Markdown source view — the editor now has WYSIWYG / Markdown tabs at the bottom of the editor area. Click Markdown to see or edit the raw source, useful for pasting pre-written markdown or double-checking how something will render.

What's new in product descriptions:

• Line breaks — single line breaks now render on your menu, so a multi-line description no longer collapses into one long block.
• Strikethrough — works in item descriptions as well.

One small quality improvement: if a page accidentally uses a top-level heading (the same size as the page title), it's now automatically treated as a section heading instead. Your page title stays the one top-level heading on the page, which is what search engines expect and keeps the visual hierarchy clean.

No changes needed on your side — existing pages and item descriptions benefit automatically the next time they're viewed.

This is the new home for platform updates. Whenever we ship a feature, fix, or improvement that you might care about, you'll find it here — no need to chase release notes or open a support ticket to ask "is this new?".

A red dot on the gift icon in the top bar means there's something unread. Click it any time to catch up.

We aim to keep entries short: one paragraph plus a quick bulleted list when there's more to say. If an update has a Help article, you'll see a link straight to it.

The order success page used to push customers straight into WhatsApp. That's still the default and the loudest button, but customers now get a dropdown to share their order summary by Email or copy it to the clipboard instead.

Useful for B2B customers who don't use WhatsApp, services and trades that confirm by email, or anyone who'd rather paste the details into another channel.

The QR code adapts to whichever channel they pick. Toggle the share button on or off under your company's after-order settings.

The footer copyright line — the small text under your storefront like "© 2026 Your Company. All rights reserved." — now lives inside Templates → Template Settings → Footer, next to your cover photo and theme colors. The standalone "Copyright Text" app has been retired.

Why the change: it's the kind of thing you tweak once while setting up your storefront look, so keeping it with cover photo, theme color, and layout makes more sense than hiding it in its own app entry. One less thing in your Apps list, easier to find when you're styling your storefront.

If you'd already customized your copyright line, it stayed put and continues to show on your storefront — you'll just find the editor in the new location. If you never touched it, your footer keeps falling back to your company name as before.

If you set a coupon to "first order only" or limit it per customer, those rules used to silently pass for guest customers — which meant a guest could reuse the coupon as many times as they liked.

Now those coupons require the customer to sign in before they can be applied. Guests get a clear "Please sign in to use this coupon" message; signed-in customers continue to see the original error if they don't qualify.

Coupons without per-customer rules are unaffected — guests can still use those exactly as before.

Three new coupon controls landed in this release. Mix and match with your existing fixed-amount and percentage coupons.

• Free shipping coupons — waive the delivery fee instead of discounting the cart. Useful for "free delivery this week" campaigns or rewarding loyal customers.
• First order only — restrict a coupon to customers who have never placed an order with you. Standard new-customer welcome offer, now built in.
• Time-of-day and day-of-week limits — run a coupon only on certain hours (e.g. lunch 11:00–14:00, late-night specials 22:00–06:00) or only on chosen days (Mondays, weekends, etc.). Overnight ranges work too.

All controls are optional — leave them off and existing coupons behave exactly as before. Set them up under your coupon's edit page.

Run "buy 2 get 1 free", "buy a main get a drink half off", "buy 3 cheapest free", and similar deals — without writing custom rules.

Each BOGO coupon defines:

• What triggers the deal — specific items, a category, or anything in the cart, and how many are needed (Buy X)
• What the customer gets — same items, different items, a specific category, or just the cheapest item in the cart (Get Y)
• The reward — free, fixed amount off, or a percentage off

Deals repeat automatically: if a customer adds enough trigger items for two deals, they get two rewards. Works for food bundles, retail "3 for 2" promotions, services bundling — anywhere "buy more, get more" makes sense.

Create one under Coupons → New Coupon → choose Buy X Get Y as the type.

vCards now support a YouTube video as the cover, in place of the cover image. Paste any YouTube URL into the new YouTube Cover Link field on your vCard's edit page and the embedded video plays at the top of your card.

Useful for showrooms, portfolios, event teasers, or any service where a short video pitches you better than a still photo. Leave the field empty and the cover image continues to be used exactly as before.

Works across all vCard templates — no template change needed.
