Zapiet - Pickup + Delivery

We noticed an issue where, after creating a draft order and marking it as “Ready for pickup,” the SMS notification wasn’t sent, and the page would go blank. Good news—this is all sorted! Now, SMS notifications for draft orders are sent as they should be, and the page stays intact.

Zapiet - Product Options

In the Dawn theme, if the “Quick add” feature is enabled and a product has variants, a product selection window pops up to let customers choose the variant. Previously, our Option Sets weren’t showing up in the modal, which allowed items to be added to the cart without required options being selected. This is now fixed—options display in the modal as expected, so customers can choose exactly what they need.

  • Our SMS notifications feature is now available to US merchants, making it convenient for customers to stay updated on their orders created through the Online store. Plus, we’ve added a checkbox on the cart page for easy opt-in to SMS updates! You can read more about this feature in our SMS notifications article.
  • Date loading on the POS "Schedule Order" tile has been improved for faster and more reliable scheduling.
  • We introduced the new and improved checkout widget for delivery and shipping, designed to enhance the user experience with a smoother, more intuitive interface.
  • We’ve resolved a bug where custom pickup time slots were still showing in the widget, even when the time picker was turned off. The feature should now work as expected.
  • Some US merchants noticed the widget became unresponsive—our team jumped on it, and everything’s back to normal now!
  • We optimized the loading speed of our admin dashboard and widgets to provide a quicker, more seamless experience for all users.
  • Previously, rates created in our rates setup guide weren’t automatically added to Shopify. This issue has now been resolved, and rates are added as expected.
  • The base URL for our API has been updated from api-us.zapiet.com to api.zapiet.com. You can read more in our Widget API documentation.
    ​The api-us.zapiet.com endpoint will remain active for the next six months to allow for a smooth transition before it is fully deprecated.

Shared by Merchant Support • October 22, 2024
  • We’ve added the ability to disable an option set without needing to remove it.
  • When a maximum number of selections is set for checkboxes, the remaining options on the product page are now greyed out once the limit is reached.
  • Previously, when editing a large option set in the cart using our cart page app block, some options would extend outside the modal. This issue has been fixed, and all options now fit within the modal.
  • In the POS, when using the swatches option type with images, some images were not displaying correctly. This has been resolved.
  • The ability to use a pricing add-on as a negative number (as a discount) worked correctly on the product page but not on the cart or checkout pages. This has been fixed.
  • Option set titles now support special characters.
  • When the product page app block was enabled, the product price was rounded up to the nearest whole number. This issue has been corrected.
  • When using Zapiet – Pickup + Delivery with Zapiet – Product Options and option charges, other options were prevented from showing on the order. This has been addressed.

Our app just got even better with new features and bug fixes! 🚀

Improvements

  • You can now configure bundles of products to create Meal Deals! Combine a main dish, dessert, and drink for a special discounted price. Learn more in our Product bundles article.
  • We have introduced a feature that lets you create option sets and add specific products and options to them. Delight your customers with various product options! Discover more in our Product Options article.
  • Delight your customers with our brand-new discount feature! Create discounts for different delivery options, restaurants, and days. Find additional details in our Creating automatic discount codes article.
  • On mobile, the widget now displays delivery details in the same short form as the calendar, keeping everything aligned.

We've also squashed some bugs! 🐛

  • Previously, deleted menu items would still appear in the app. The issue was resolved and the deleted menu items now stay deleted.
  • The badge on the ‘Restaurants’ page was not updated when delivery options were enabled or disabled. The issue has been fixed and the ‘Restaurants’ page now reflects the changes to delivery options.
  • The widget was showing an incorrect error message if the delivery option was changed from pickup to local delivery. The issue was fixed and the correct wording now appears for the error message.
  • Previously, the widget displayed only 3 available locations. We have now expanded it to show all available locations!
  • The information from Zapiet - Product Options was not included in the internal or customer-facing notifications. After fixing the issue, the notifications are working as expected and include all of the relevant information.
  • If a restaurant was closed and an order was scheduled for a different day, it used to be automatically canceled and refunded. We've improved this feature so now the order will be properly rescheduled for a future date instead.
  • We fixed an issue where bulk blackout dates could be added to a restaurant without a menu. Now, if there's no menu available, an error message will be displayed when attempting to add blackout dates.

Week 41 • Order attributes and POS bug fixes

Shared by Merchant Support • October 11, 2024
  • Zapiet - Pickup + Delivery was unintentionally editing order attributes from other apps, resulting in the removal of special characters such as quotation marks. The issue has been addressed, and custom attributes will now remain intact.
  • We have resolved an issue where the date picker in the POS app wasn’t showing earlier dates when editing an order. Previously, if the order was set for a later date (like the 21st of September), it was tricky to select earlier dates (like the 17th - 20th of September). You can now easily select both earlier and later dates as needed.

  • In the checkout widget, the preselect first available time feature for local delivery was experiencing an issue and didn’t work properly. Our developers swiftly resolved this bug.
  • When previewing the order status widget in the theme editor, it would only show in English and not in the default store language. The issue has been fixed and the order status widget now shows in the store’s default language.
  • We resolved an issue where the order details export file did not include the ‘Delivery note’ information. All details are now being correctly exported.
