It's time for some Zapiet - Product Rates news! 📰

We have:

• Added the ability to charge the rate per product group rather than per individual product.
• Added in-app links to articles in our help center.
• Improved the font and the design of the app.

We have smashed some bugs last week, check them out! 🐞🐛

• We have hidden the fields related to the checkout from our Text and design settings. Due to recent Shopify changes, we cannot automatically update the checkout wording depending on the selected delivery option anymore. New merchants will need to manually add the language locales to their themes, so we’ve added that step to the setup guide.
• There was a delay in updating notification templates — edited templates should now be visible in the emails immediately.
• We have added the ability to restore the order’s attributes from the ZapietID when they are missing or dropped, mainly when the customers are redirected to third-party payment providers and their payment fails.
• Previously, when using conditional activation in the checkout widget, only the product cost was considered. We now use the cart total to determine if your customers can select a certain delivery option.
• We have fixe the bug with Last Mile Delivery providers, where if you had disabled the integration, their rates were still showing in the checkout.
• We have fixed the bug where you couldn’t add custom rates when using POS and Zapiet - Pickup + Delivery rates.

We are thrilled to share many exciting Zapiet - Pickup + Delivery updates to help you give an even better experience to your customers ✨🥂🤓

Improvements

• You can now customize your payment methods depending on the delivery option.
• Shopify Plus merchants can now enable the order status page app block and change the wording according to their needs in the Text and design settings.
• We have improved our rates to support multiple states and provinces, which means that you can now charge different rates per region.

• If you were using Shopify in the Chinese language, there were issues with creating and editing locations within Zapiet - Pickup + Delivery due to Shopify not supporting the zh-Hans locale code.
