Core Plugin Updates

Style Updates

Sunshine Photo Cart tries to allow your theme's CSS to define the fonts, colors, and styles throughout. However, for sites using dark backgrounds the font colors can sometimes be hidden because it is dark on dark. This release improves some color styling to help improve this situation.

Also updated is for the single image view, the action icons are now placed above the image. Enough photographers reported that the icons, previously on top of the image, blocked key parts of their photos.

Add-on Updates

Digital Downloads add-on was updated so it no longer shows the download icon when a user does not have permission to download. Previously it would show the icon but then tell the user they do not have permission. This helps reduce confusion to your customers so they don't think there is an error with the download button.

Advanced Analytics add-on was updated so you can see a total of all orders from it's child galleries making it easier to understand the success of a specific event like a wedding or school shoot.
