STM Smart Checkout Pro for WooCommerce

Changelog:

0.9.2

• Security: the list of connections that are never limited now applies to the real connection (REMOTE_ADDR) only. Forged X-Real-IP or X-Forwarded-For headers no longer get past the card testing limits. The exemption for staff stays.
• New: "Trusted proxies" for shops behind a CDN, load balancer or reverse proxy. Forwarded addresses count only from connections on this list. If a listed connection sits behind a proxy, enter the proxy here, otherwise the entry no longer applies.
• Fixed: checkbox and consent fields. WooCommerce turns every value posted for a checkbox into 1, also "0" or "off", and such a request showed as accepted. Only an affirmative value counts now, for required fields too. Unticked fields leave nothing on the order, and a consent stores its time.
• Fixed: a consent is never prefilled from an earlier order, and a remembered checkbox is forgotten when it is unticked.

0.9.1

• Changed: in the three-column layouts the offer cards now sit below the payment methods, which shortens the checkout and moves the buy button up.
• Fixed: with Germanized a card stayed on "add" after it was added. The cards now refresh with every checkout update.

0.9.0

• New: checkout field editor with 22 field types, conditions, checks, layout preview, and answers on the order, in mails and in the account.
• New: field analysis. Where orders fail, field by field and payment method by payment method, as sums on your own server.
• New: layout test. Two layouts take turns in time blocks, without a cookie or visitor identifier, with a forecast before the start and a result computed from the blocks.
• New: card testing protection. Limits per connection, also against forged address headers, hidden trap, minimum time and a warning mail. Off by default.
• Backup and transfer of the free plugin includes the checkout fields.
• All Pro settings are in sections of the Smart Checkout screen (with Smart Checkout 0.1.54).
• Bundle discounts: a hint longer than the column no longer runs over the edge of the checkout.
• Withdrawal form redesigned; it no longer loads its design values from a missing file.
• Fixed: the switches of the withdrawal form, the mobile order bar and the express zone did not work as saved. Where such a setting differs from the default, the update changes behaviour.

0.8.5

• Withdrawal form: street, postcode and city from the customer account and from an owned order are filled in again. Blank defaults used to overwrite them. The fields stay editable and keep what was typed after a validation error; an order without an address no longer empties the address saved on the account.
• VAT ID on the Checkout block: on WooCommerce 8.9 to 10.8 an order with a confirmed VAT ID kept its VAT while it said reverse charge. The Checkout block now shows the field from WooCommerce 10.9, the first version that shows the exemption before the order is placed. Below that version it shows no field and customers read a short notice above the form; the new filter stmcp_b2b_block_notice changes the wording. The classic checkout still works from WooCommerce 8.3.
• Reverse charge: only orders actually booked without VAT carry the reverse-charge note.
• The settings screen states the minimum version for the Checkout block and says so clearly when the shop runs an older one.

0.8.4

• Bundle discounts: when a cart meets several rules, the saving is now measured instead of estimated. WooCommerce calculates the order total without a bundle discount and with each rule, and the rule with the lowest total wins. This is exact for mixed tax rates, because WooCommerce spreads the tax of a discount across all tax classes of the cart. It also holds for non-taxable lines, VAT-exempt customers and Germanized in gross or net mode.
• Checkout offers: "Remove" now takes out only the cart line the offer card added. A line of the same product bought the normal way stays in the cart, in any configuration, and the card is not shown while the product is in the cart that way.

0.8.3

• Bundle discounts: of all rules the cart meets, the one that saves the customer the most money now applies, not the one with the highest percentage; the comparison uses what the customer actually pays less (net fee plus the tax of its rate, gross fee with Germanized, net amount for VAT-exempt customers).
• Checkout offers: the product for each card is chosen with WooCommerce's product search (name or SKU) instead of a list of the first 200 products, so every product of the catalogue can be offered, and the saved product is kept when other settings are saved.

0.8.2

• HPOS and Checkout block compatibility are now declared to WooCommerce.
• Links from a withdrawal request to its order use the order's own edit address, so they open the right screen with HPOS.
• The withdrawal form limits submissions per connection and receipts per email address; every accepted request is still stored and reaches the shop. New filters stmcp_withdrawal_rate_limits, stmcp_withdrawal_client_ip and stmcp_withdrawal_check_submission (CAPTCHA and anti-spam).
• Entering the number of a refund in the withdrawal form no longer ends in an error.
• Requirements unified: WordPress 6.5, PHP 7.4, WooCommerce 8.3 (tested up to 11.0), STM Smart Checkout 0.1.31.
• The bundled payment and shipping symbols are Storetown Media's own work under GPL-2.0-or-later; CREDITS.txt now says so.

0.8.1

• The VAT ID check stays off while EuroB2B shows its own VAT ID field, so a checkout never has two VAT ID fields.
• A field made required by the chosen payment method no longer also reads "(optional)".
• License and updates through WPBay.

0.8.0

• New: VAT ID field at the checkout with live VIES check, on the classic checkout and the Checkout block.
• New: a confirmed VAT ID from another EU country removes VAT from the order (reverse charge).
• New: every order stores VAT ID, result, consultation number and date; confirmation, order overview and e-mail show the VAT ID.
• An unreachable VIES service never grants an exemption; the order goes through with VAT.
• Stays silent where Germanized Pro runs its own VAT ID check. Off until switched on.

0.7.0

• New: checkout offers — up to three cards above the buy button that add a real product to the order.
