WooCommerce Blocks 10.6.0 Release Notes

The latest version of WooCommerce Blocks, version 10.6.0, is now available for download on WordPress.org and GitHub.

Notable Changes

Cart, Checkout, and Order Confirmation templates are now available in the Site Editor for block themes! These templates enhance your editing experience for the checkout flow by enabling editing the entire page, including header/footer customization.

Also, with this release, we removed the word beta from the compatibility notice in the Cart and Checkout Blocks to show merchants that these blocks can be considered stable.

Below you can see the before and after screenshots of the compatibility notice. The corresponding PR can be found at https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce-blocks/pull/10019.

New settings added to the Mini-Cart

We are adding three new settings to the Mini-Cart block, giving you more customization options and allowing merchants to personalize the color of the price, icon, and product count to match their preferences.

    Huge release, good to see the beta gone (here we make use of the new cart/checkout blocks for more than 1 year now), aside other great improvements.
    It is a pleasure to see such move on Woo.
    btw, if you can add the mini cart block in the inserter for nav component, would be great (see https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce-blocks/issues/10067).
    Keep it up !

  2. Would be nice to highlight IMHO :

    Cart and Checkout Blocks are not under Beta status anymore !
    Many improvements we made on block templates and WC Blocks, and also new patterns were added
