2.3 Handsome Hippo Beta 2

Work continues on 2.3 and we’re getting closer to the final release. We’re expecting to have a release candidate out within a week, so don’t forget to test your extensions and themes!

Changes Since Beta 1

You can view a comparison between beta 1 and master here, but notable changes include:

  • Added the WC Tracker (opt-in usage tracking)
  • Added additional filters/args to wc_price function and added functions to get things such as the decimal separator (wc_get_price_thousand_separator, wc_get_price_decimal_separator, wc_get_price_decimals)
  • Fixed issues showing variation prices when free
  • wc_format_content() function to work around some theme conflicts
  • PDT vs IPN option in PayPal standard

We’ve also updated the API docs here: http://docs.woothemes.com/wc-apidocs/

Help Document the REST API

We now have a Github Repo for the REST API Docs where you are welcome to make contributions. We’re using Slate to generate the actual documentation from this repo.

  2. Can’t even freaking tell you how happy I am to find this. My perma-links were busted to hell. I had imported 350 products, trashed wordpress three times and got no help on my support ticket. Then I find the most obscure google search result that led me here………… SAVED MY SANITY. <3 xoxoxo
