Emporium
1.0.1
Released
Support extensions, a 3D shelf and instant search on the home, CSV export, the sitemap and the feature workbench.
AddedThe store home is rebuilt around a 3D shelf of your covers: the spotlight product in front, up to four more fanned behind it, tilting with the pointer, each opening its product page. The figures beneath count up as they scroll into view.
AddedInstant search on the store home: results appear as you type, with cover, price and rating, full keyboard navigation, and a slash key that jumps to the box from anywhere on the page. Without JavaScript the box still runs a normal search.
AddedFresh off the bench: the latest stable releases roll in a strip of cover cards carrying the version, the headline change and the date.
AddedMade for you: a logged-in customer sees what other owners of their add-ons went on to buy, ranked by how many did. Guests, and customers with nothing to go on, see what is trending this week from downloads and purchases. The rail stays away rather than showing filler.
AddedCategory tiles show a mosaic of their three best-selling covers, and on phones every product grid on the home scrolls sideways instead of stacking.
AddedPerpetual licences can buy their support window again. When the product limits support in time and the plan carries a renewal price, the licence page and the licence dashboard offer Extend support once the window is closing or has ended. It goes through the normal cart and checkout, extends support from the day the old window ends, and a refund puts the previous date back.
AddedHolders of a perpetual licence are alerted before their support ends, once per licence and only when an extension is actually on offer, with alert opt-outs for the notice and the confirmation.
AddedExport CSV on Sales, Orders: every order matching the filters on screen, one line per order with totals, tax, billing identity, payment profile, coupons and the products bought.
AddedProducts, the store home and every stocked category feed the XenForo sitemap. Nothing to switch on.
AddedFeature workbench: licence holders propose features with a pledge, other holders back them, you set a goal and ship. Admin CP, Emporium, Customers, Feature requests.
AddedThe add-ons a member owns appear under the user banners on their posts. Two options: on or off, and how many pills to show before folding into a count that unfolds on hover.
ChangedThe store home and the paginated catalogue carry a canonical URL.
ChangedCart, checkout and order lines say Support extension when that is what is bought, instead of Perpetual.
ChangedFeature workbench alerts go to the product seller, or to the storefront user when a product has none.
FixedA perpetual licence whose support had ended was told to renew to get support again, and then that there was nothing to renew.
FixedAlerts left behind by a deleted feature request are purged with the other orphaned alerts.
The first public release of the store engine that runs this site.
AddedFirst public release. Emporium has been running this store in production since it was built, so version 1.0.0 is what you are looking at rather than a first attempt.
AddedSell downloads, access passes, services and bundles, each with its own page, gallery and version history.
AddedPrice plans: one-off or recurring, per-site install limits, trial days and early renewal, with several plans allowed on the same product.
AddedLicences issued on payment, tied to the buyer, with an install count, an expiry and grace days you control.
AddedA signed, replay-protected licence API so a customer board can check its own licence and fetch what it is entitled to.
AddedThe Emporium Client add-on ships inside the download, ready to hand to your buyers for one-click updates from their own Admin CP.
AddedReleases with typed changelogs, the archive attached, and its hash and size recorded.
AddedOrders, sequential invoice numbering, refunds, partial refunds and chargebacks, with Stripe for payment.
AddedA full Admin CP: dashboard, products, plans, orders, licences, coupons, payment profiles and data health.
