Major Weblium Updates for Online Stores

Our team has released a large number of important updates that will enable even more efficient work with e-commerce, helping to create not only beautiful but also highly functional online stores. In this brief digest, we have compiled information about all the latest updates to improve your store's efficiency.

A quick reminder: you can easily import products from other platforms into your Weblium online store, connect CRM systems (KeyCRMBookon CRM, SalesDrive) in just a few clicks, and create your own integrations using Webhook and Zapier.

Filters

Now you can set up convenient filtering by price and product parameters for your online store, allowing customers to quickly find exactly what they are looking for. Flexible settings let you choose product categories and parameters to display, change the sorting type, and customize the appearance of the filter panel.

Automated order confirmation emails

Send your customers confirmation emails with order details immediately after they place an order on the site. You can either use an integration with SendGrid or send emails directly through Weblium. The connection is made in just a few clicks, and in the settings, you can edit the email content and run a test of the mailings.

Waybill generation for Nova Poshta

Now you can create shipping waybills for orders on your site in just a few clicks directly in Weblium. This significantly speeds up the order processing time and eliminates the need to manually input data when generating waybills. To generate a waybill, you need to connect the Nova Poshta integration, fill in the sender's details, and then click the "Generate waybill" button in the relevant order under the "Orders" section. But please note that this update works only with Ukrainian branches of “Nova Poshta”.

Creating promo codes for your online store

Add promo codes to your store to make it easier for your customers to shop and for you to track marketing activities. You can set limits on promo code usage (expiration date, minimum order amount, specific product category, and number of activations) and choose the discount type — a fixed amount or percentage.

Black Friday is just around the corner, and we hope our updates will help you set new records and get the most out of your online store. Happy shopping!

Generating Waybills for "Nova Poshta"

You can now generate waybills for "Nova Poshta" directly on the order pages of your store. To do this, you only need to enter the sender’s information and order details once in the integration settings with "Nova Poshta". Then, go to the necessary orders with the "Nova Poshta" delivery method and click the "Generate waybill" button. The waybill will immediately be available for copying and further use.

For more information about working with the "Nova Poshta" integration, please refer to our Help Center. But please note that this update is working only with Ukrainian branches of “Nova Poshta”.

Automatic Email Sending for Order Placement

You can now set up automatic email sending for your customers as soon as they place an order on your website. This can be done in one of two ways: by integrating with SendGrid or by sending emails directly through Weblium (useful if you don’t have a SendGrid account).

The control panel for automatic emails is located under the "Client emails" tab, which can be found in the store settings (directly in the "Settings" section).

To connect the SendGrid integration, you need to provide an API key generated on the SendGrid side, as well as the email address from which the emails will be sent. To send emails directly through Weblium, you only need to specify the sender’s email.

We have pre-prepared a standard email template with order details, but you can easily make any changes, such as adding your contact information or modifying variables, a list of which you will find during the email editing process.

Once you have activated email sending and made all the desired changes to the email content, you can test its functionality — simply click the "Send test email" button located at the bottom of the integration settings, and we will send an email to the address you use for Weblium authorization.

A more detailed guide on setting up, customizing, and testing trigger emails can be found in our Help Center.

Update to Drop-down Menu Style Settings

You can now customize the appearance of drop-down menus more flexibly. We've added a "Drop-down Menu Styles" section to the "Style" tab in the "Menu" element settings, allowing you to adjust the background color and the color of submenu items.

Additionally, when you open the "Menu" element settings, the drop-down menu will automatically expand with the first item in the list, so you can immediately see the changes you make in the "Drop-down Menu Styles" section.

For more details on how to work with the "Menu" element, please refer to our Help Center.

Setting and Looping the Period in the "Countdown" Element

We have added a "Period" tab to the settings of the "Countdown" element, where you can specify the start and end date and time for the countdown. Additionally, in the "Action after countdown ends" section, you can enable automatic countdown continuation by turning on the switch next to the "Loop countdown" option.

Filters for Ecommerce

We have developed a new feature that allows users of your website to filter products by categories and parameters. The filter functionality is available as the "Product catalog with cilters" block (found in the "Ecommerce" category in the block library) and as the "Product catalog" element (available in the element addition panel), which you can add to any block.

In the "Product catalog with filters" block, filter display is enabled by default. To activate filters in the "Product catalog" element, you need to go to its settings and enable the "Show filters" toggle. A field will be added to the left side of the element, containing a list of all categories, subcategories, and parameters set in your store and product settings. In both the block and the element, you can edit this list and select which categories, subcategories, and parameters to display in the filters. You can also choose to display only product subcategories without linking them to the category they belong to.

For user convenience, we made the filters dynamic, meaning that when a certain category or subcategory of products is selected, only the parameters available in that category will be displayed.

Changing the Status and Availability of Products on the "Products" Page

We have added a small improvement that will allow you to change the status or availability of a product directly on the "Products" page in your store settings, without needing to go into the settings of each individual product. The "Status" and "Inventory" columns now contain drop-down lists with all possible options, which you can apply in just a few clicks. This will help you manage your products more efficiently and keep your store's inventory up to date.

Changing the focus point on different devices in the “Image” element

We have added the ability to change the focus point in the “Image” element on different devices. This will allow you to customize the area of the image displayed on different devices. This is useful if, for example, you need to display the central part of the image on the computer version of the site and the left or right part on the mobile version.

Furthermore, we have adapted the select area of the focus point, and now it looks appropriate for mobile devices.

Now, it's even easier to adapt websites!
