Highlights
- Significant new features that streamline the customer experience and provide merchants with greater insight into their online business.
- Numerous fixes and enhancements to core features, including significant improvements to the payment process.
- Over one hundred community-submitted bug fixes and multiple pull requests.
New Features
- Advanced Reporting powered by Magento Business Intelligence. Access easy-to-use order, product, and customer reports right from the Magento Admin to gain new insights and enable data-driven decision making.
- Magento Shipping (powered by Temando). This new feature provides integrated advanced multi-carrier shipping and fulfillment.
- Streamlined Instant Purchase checkout (contributed by Creatuity). Our new streamlined Instant Purchase option uses previously stored payment credentials and shipping information to bypass steps in the checkout process.
- Integrated dotmailer marketing automation software. Magento is one of the first ecommerce solutions to include the dotmailer marketing automation with their core product.
- Magento Functional Testing Framework. The Magento Functional Testing Framework (MTFT) is our open-source, cross-platform testing solution. Its purpose is to facilitate functional testing and minimize efforts to perform regression testing.
Bug Fixes
- Significant enhancements for payment methods. We’ve added support for the Indian Rupee (INR) to PayPal Express Checkout. We’ve also added a fix for an issue where some Braintree refunds did not work.
- Improvements to multi-storeview sites. Switching store views multiple times no longer results in an error on the storefront.
- New functionality for the command-line interface. We’ve added interactivity to the admin:user:create command and added the ability to handle CLI setup interactively (with prompts).
- You can now use the Enter key (in addition to a mouse click) to search tables in the Admin.
- Magento no longer creates duplicate shipments when merchants create shipments with bundled products via API.
This release also includes dozens of bug fixes plus a substantial number of contributions from the wider Magento community.
