ANN: Shipping Cost Estimator for StoreFront Maintenance Release 1.4.4
Shipping Cost Estimator version 1.4.4 is now available. This free update includes the following changes:
- There are no more hard coded messages. All of the text messages that are displayed by the Shipping Cost Estimator can be customised, localised, or removed. Three new properties were added to make this happen: EstimatorInstructions, NoItemsMessage, and NoShippableItemsMessage. Also the prompt for zip code that initially appears when the estimator is first displayed and you are using carrier-based shipping, now takes it’s text from the ZipCodeRequired validator that is in ShippingCost.ascx. The bottom line is that there are no more hard coded text messages inside of the code.
- The <RateMessage> tag has a minor change to make it more readable. Previously the tag looked like this:
<RateMessage Value=”UPS” Text=”Disclaimer for UPS” />
Now the tag should look like this:
<RateMessage CarrierCode=”UPS” Message=”Disclaimer for UPS” />
You can actually use either format, but the examples and the documentation now use the new format.
