Sunshine Photo Cart 3.1.12 is released today! Another improvement to the best WordPress client photo gallery plugin available for photographers.

This release provides some minor UI enhancements and bug fixes to the core plugin as well as the Automated Emails and Messages add-ons.

Core plugin improvements

Password protected galleries are the most popular amongst photographers using Sunshine Photo Cart for their client photo galleries. A new "Generate Password" button is now available which makes it very easy to come up with a unique password. One less thing to think about!

There is also a new "Install Process" tool which allows you to run the installation process again to help with rare instances where something has gone wrong with your Sunshine Photo Cart setup during installation.

Automated Emails Add-on Improvements

The Automated Emails add-on has a new trigger available! In coordination with the Messaging add-on, you can now have automated follow up emails sent X days after your initial gallery invite email.

This will allow you to automatically follow up with your client X days after you have invited them to view their gallery to check in, offer promotions, or any of the other great use cases of the Automated Emails add-on.

Messaging Add-on Improvements

The Messaging add-on also got it's own improvement making the workflow from creating a gallery to sending the email notifying your customer faster. A new link is now available immediately upon publishing which will take you directly to the Gallery Invite message with the new gallery preselected.
