EShop - Joomla Shopping Cart 4.0.0

Release of EShop Shopping Cart extension, version 4.0.0 with the following great new features / improvements:

1. J2Store to EShop Migration.

As you maybe knew, J2Store Team gave an announcement about "Sunsetting J2Store Development" few weeks ago. Some of customers asked us about a way to migrate data from J2Store into EShop. So we decided to make a migration tool to migrate data from J2Store to EShop. So just by one click on "Migrate J2Store" tool, you can migrate the following J2Store data into EShop:

- Manufacturers
- Categories and corresponding images
- Options and Option Values
- Products and corresponding images
- Products downloadable files
- Products Relation
- Products Discount
- Products Options.
- Multilingual data.

2. Process Order Improvements.

So beside of processing statuses "Pending" and "Complete" of orders, since version 4.0.0, we add the features to process "Cancel" and "Failure" orders:

- If customer cancel an order, the system will call the cancel order task to change order status from "Pending" to "Cancel" and send the cancel notification email to admin's store.
- If a payment is failured, then system will change order status from "Pending" to "Failure" and send the failure notification email to admin's store.

These statuses and content of notification email can be configured.

3. Apply tax to Quote Cart.

Since version 4.0.0, we added the feature to apply the tax to products in Quote Cart mode. This is special useful for stores from Europe. So when customers add products to the Quote Cart, if they have tax class, then the tax amount will be applied and showed in Quote.

4. Some other improvements / fixes:

- Add Clear Cart button so customers can clear whole of cart as they want easily.
- Fix the issue of pagination links in filter results.

1. Add Price Match feature.

Price Match feature allows customers to matching a lower product price from another store. So when customers are viewing a specific product in your store, if they find another store who is selling that exact same product with a lower price, then they have a form to send a Price Match Request to admin's store. Admin's store will receive a notification email with details of match price, match URL and contact with customers for a customised invoice.

This feature can be turned on/off from the EShop Configuration.

2. SEO Improvement - Canoncial link.

Add Canoncial link for category and product page. So if your store have multiple URLs for a category or product, then you can edit the category / product to enter a canoncial link for them. Canoncial link will be added to the pages to allow search engine to identify the main page and index that main page.

3. Modules Improvement.

- EShop Category module improvement to allow select which categories to display on the module.
- Fix the issues of EShop Product module to check available date and end date of products.
