Customer Group Access 1.0.3 for Magento 2 released

by Chris Norton in Announcements

We are pleased to announce the released of version 1.0.3 of our Customer Group Access library for Magento 2. This version updates the library for compatibility with Magento 2.2, and PHP 7.1 and 7.2.

This update is important for the Fontis Australia extension, which depends on and automatically installs this library and would have been preventing installation on newer versions of Magento 2.

The Customer Group Access library for Magento 2 is now available for immediate download on GitHub and will be installed as a Composer dependency alongside the Fontis Australia extension for Magento 2. If you have any feedback or would like to contribute, please submit an issue on GitHub.

Enhanced Category Products for Magento 1 released

by Chris Norton in Announcements

We are pleased to announce the Enhanced Category Products extension for Magento 1 (Magento 2 support is not available at this time). This extension provides a new interface to manage positioning of items in a category, making it faster and easier to merchandise products.

To reorder products with the Enhanced Category Products extension (ECP) you can simply drag and drop products around in a grid, or use quick access buttons to move products to the front or back of the list. Each product is displayed with its image and basic properties such as price and stock on hand, to give you the information needed for merchandising. You can even filter products and use an auto-sort to do most of the heavy lifting for you.
