We gladly announce that we have reworked our YouTube Video Gallery add-on!

We believe that our add-on will help you to attract new customers, improve your storefront, provide you with new ways of product introduction and client management! 

YouTube Video Gallery is compatible with the most popular themes and add-ons, in order to be elegantly installed into the design of your store.

New Handy Functions

XML & CSV Import Pro

We improved the import capabilities of the add-on. Now, XML & CSV Import Pro can successfully import XML-files with the product variations. Besides, we added a new step in the image processing while importing. Now, the add-on verifies if the image path specifies the image location (server or local PC) or the script to get the image. Let’s explain. By default, you cannot import images as files with the .php extension. By doing so, you will get a message: Error, it is not allowed to upload files with the .php extension here. As the add-on purpose is to import files, the same relates to the import with the XML & CSV Import Pro. So, we decided to exclude the possibility to add such files to avoid the error message. Now, the php images will be ignored by the add-on during the import to exclude errors. 

Urban Shift

The theme was significantly redesigned to adopt new features and get a better appearance. It is now adapted to the latest CS-Cart version – 4.14.1. Here are some distinguished features added: 

• The “add to comparison list” button style now changes on switching between options/variations.
• The product labels, the “buy in one click” button, and the product image counter got a new appearance. 
• The font size on popups was fixed.
• Horizontal scrolling on particular pages was improved.
• Extra gaps in the footer blocks were removed.
• The sticky panel on the detailed product page is moved to the top.

Sales & Social Proof

We optimized the JS code and improved the view of popups. Besides, an ability to hide pop-ups for Cart, Detailed Product Page and Checkout was added. Now, you can limit the number of pop-ups for pages and for a user. The store administrator can set up the popup image size. All the improvements contribute to the add-on better work and perception. 

Product labels

We optimized the add-on code for better compliance with the PWAjet app, version 1.4.1.

Generation Z

The theme look-and-feel was changed. We added the ability to hide the skew line in the HEADER section. Compliance with the Stripe add-on was added to make it possible to hide the Buy-now-with-1-click button on the detailed product page. The theme was adapted to CS-Cart v.4.14.1

Full-Width Banner

We optimized the JS code for the add-on better performance and compliance with CS-Cart  4.14.1. 

Follow Vendor

The add-on was adapted to comply with the CS-Cart default add-on Vendor Data 

Facebook Pixel

Previously, there were no options responsible for a brand if no brand was specified for a product. We introduced such an option to avoid a PHP error when opening the Product Detailed Page. 

Archer

The theme adopted the Theme Editor. Now, it became easier to change the theme settings and styles.

Affiliate and Referral

The add-on was adapted for CS-Cart, version 4.13.3, to comply with the changes in the format of promocode generation. Now, the affiliates’ coupons now generate as they should in the latest versions of CS-Cart. 

Better compliance 

Vanilla, Rome, Archer, Airy, Asia, Hunter, and American Store

All themes were adapted to CS-Cart v.4.14.1.
