ProStores V8.1 Features

Prostores is pleased to announce our latest product release: ProStores 8.1. With this release, we’ve included a number of enhancements that make it easier for merchants to create, manage and display attributes. Merchants will now also be able to send partial shipments in cases where part of the order is backordered.

You will notice some changes to the look and feel of the store administration. Other than the obvious color changes and such, the only major change was in the Design Studio.

The Design Studio is now integrated into the navigation of the regular administration under the heading “Store Design”. You can now set baselines on your designs page by page - and is offered automatically when you edit a template.

  • Support for up to 10 attributes per product
  • Display attributes by drop-down menu or radio buttons
  • Support for reordering attributes on the storefront
  • Shared attributes across products
  • Support of partial shipments

Attributes Enhancements

Support for up to 10 attributes per product
We've increased the number of attributes for Business tier and above from 2 to 10 per product. This allows merchants to have more specifications for products.

Display attributes by drop-down menu or radio buttons
Merchants now have the option to use pull down lists or radio buttons for each attribute. They can also combine the display types, so both pull down menus and radio buttons can be shown for attribute selections for one product.

Support for reordering attributes on the storefront
The order in which attributes are displayed on the storefront can easily be changed with the new "Reorder Attributes" option on the Product Information page.

Shared attributes across products
Merchants with products that have similar attributes can now share attributes across their entire product catalog. Attribute lists allow merchants to save time by not having to apply similar attributes to each product one at a time.

Support of partial shipments (Advanced tier and above)

Merchants are also now able to offer better customer service by sending partial shipments, so that their customers don't have to wait for backordered products. With ProStores 8.1, Merchants can now split an order in which products are backordered.
