Product combinations have been removed from the product card to separate views. It allows you to relieve the systems of those users who use a very large number of combinations in their stores.

Another change that is a great convenience is linking the selected currency with the website language.

If someone use multi-currencies on the website, selected languages ​​can be associated with currencies. When a website user changes the website language, prices will be displayed in the currency assigned to that language.

We have added new field types for selection: HTML and Media. New types of extra fields can be used, for example, for product descriptions and presented in an attractive way on the product card.

We have made changes to the component panel. The sidebar has been moved to the Joomla menu. Items are now grouped by feature.

Modifying product prices using the pricing rule system saves the promoted price in the database. This makes it possible to display the average price from the last 30 days in accordance with the Omnibus directive.

We have prepared a video that describes the latest changes to the DJ-Catalog2 component. We encourage you to watch!
