We are often asked about the release date of the next Shop-Script update, and we always say that we have no ETA. We do not promise any release dates because such a forecast would be incorrect. What we can tell you for sure is that there will be no update within the next several months. Is this a bad news? Not quite so.

The development of Shop-Script is currently in full swing! Our inability to provide you with any ETA is caused by the fact that we are working on the kernel of the system – it is what most of our efforts are now focused on. What to expect from the new version:

• modular system: improved module- and interface-related structure of the software;
• developer documentation: it is being compiled at the time of development (how to create custom modules, how to add own components to the design editor, how to assign user event triggers for different actions performed in the store, etc; of course, such custom modules and functions will be retained during software updates);
• updated design editor with the design themes export/import feature;
• improved performance: the number of SQL queries and the speed of opening main administration screens have already been reduced in the current development version by 2.5 times;
• export and import of various store data: all these functions will have a module-based structure.

We are currently implementing integration of Shop-Script with WebAsyst Contacts (more info on this will be posted later in this blog).

Working on the new Shop-Script is a real joy – we are creating a conceptually new product. Changes are visually not so obvious, but in the core of the software they can be compared with a 2-liter V4 engine being replaced with a 6-liter V8!

To create a video showing how WebAsyst Photos works, we used Screenflow software for Mac OS X. It is a very handy tool (first of all, due to intuitive interface and absence of complex features one does not need every day).

Can you suggest a similar piece of software for Windows? We are planning to record several screencasts for a WebAsyst video tutorial. Thanks!

We are planning to post stories in our blog about online stores based on WebAsyst Shop-Script that we find interesting. Those can be very short posts with a single screen capture of the storefront or detailed reports of the experience gained from utilizing Shop-Script. Published stories will be dedicated only to the most interesting online stores and your real experience with WebAsyst Shop-Script.

If you would like us to tell others about your web store, just send a link to the storefront to our support team or submit it using the form provided below:

Along with a post in the blog we will also publish a mandatory link to the store on our main website at shop-script.com.

Note that we do not accept payment for publishing links to your online stories. The decision on the publication is made solely at our own discretion.

If, aside from a link to the store, you decide to submit own story about how you started your business online, how you arranged the delivery of orders, what steps you currently take for its further development, we would be happy to publish an entire article dedicated to your e-commerce project.

We uploaded some photos taken during the last couple of years, and published them in our new corporate photo gallery. Take a look behind the scenes of WebAsyst.

More photos are coming soon.

Gallery is powered by our recently launched WebAsyst Photos application.

Due to an error in an SQL query that was run during the latest update of user accounts of the WebAsyst Photos online service, the status of all albums that were marked as “Published” was mistakenly set to “Published privately”. It means that such albums are no longer available in the publicly accessible photo gallery.

The problem has affected only the users of the WebAsyst Photos online service. If you have PHP scripts of the WebAsyst Photos application installed on your server, the statuses of your albums have not been changed.

We sincerely apologize for this mistake. All other user data (photos and albums) have not been affected, it is only the publication status of albums that has been changed.

If you are using WebAsyst Photos as a hosted service, please log in and set correct statuses for your albums.

As a compensation for this failure we are ready to offer free use of the “My Photos” pricing plan (2 GB disk space) during one month to each user of our online services. If you would like to make use of this offer, please email your request to our support team—your account will be updated upon the receipt of your email. Thank you.
