Articles can now show product cards inside the text, each one linked to a real product from your store, so readers can go from reading to buying in one click. Articles also get a related products category, which picks the products shown with each article.
You can now add Amazon products to a store without opening its admin. On the store's page in your account, paste up to 25 Amazon links or product codes and they are imported into that store. It is the quickest way to add a handful of products when you are already in your account.
Every offer on your store now shows its price history, on every template. Visitors can see how the price has moved over time and whether today's price is a good one before they click through to buy. It works on its own, with nothing to set up.
Product pages no longer repeat the same text, and on phones the price and the first buy button now show on the first screen, before any scrolling. Visitors see the price and where to buy straight away, which is what most of them came for.
Products now show one price, in the visitor's own currency, for your store's country. Each offer row says when its price was last checked, and offers with a price come before those without one. Visitors get a clear, current price instead of a list of numbers to compare.
Buy buttons now say which retailer the click goes to and show the price, so visitors know where they are going before they click. Each template offers two button styles, and every product card always has a retailer button. Pick the style that suits your store.
You can now show an optional Buy Now button beside Add to Cart. It takes visitors straight to the retailer's product page as a tracked click, for shoppers who want one item and no cart. When visitors do use the cart, checkout groups their items by merchant.
Visitors can now sort the products on your category, brand and All Products pages. You choose the default sort order for the whole store, and you can set a different order for any single category. Sorting was requested on the FreshStore roadmap.
AI images now come from a newer image model. They look better, arrive in about 15 seconds and use fewer AI Chips than before. For images and logos that need extra polish, you can now pick the High quality option when you generate them.
AI writing is faster and tidier. It now writes a whole product, a whole category or a set of article topics in one go, keeps links clean, and avoids dashes and health claims in what it writes. You get cleaner copy back sooner, with less to tidy up by hand.
Category Populators are more dependable. A failed search no longer switches a populator off, there is no hidden limit on how many products it adds, and it counts the products that actually arrive. Categories are refilled up to their maximum, and if a populator does stop, it tells you why.
Category and product listing pages now load much faster, most of all on stores with large catalogues. Visitors browsing a big category see products sooner, and you no longer wait on slow pages while you check your own store. Nothing needs switching on; every store gets the speed up.
You can now import AliExpress products with the Link Importer in your store admin. Paste AliExpress product links, product IDs or the short links the AliExpress app shares, and each one becomes a product in your store with its AliExpress offer. It works alongside the Amazon and eBay links the importer already handled.
Fixed: Content Checker flagged products as missing content just because the meta keywords field was empty.
Fixed: breadcrumb and organisation data for search engines used the wrong URLs, product data could go stale on cached pages, and the cart page showed up in search results. All three are now correct.
Image fields now search Pexels, Unsplash and Pixabay at the same time, so one search gives you more free stock photos to choose from.
When FreshStore picks images for you, it now tries stock photos first and only creates an AI image when no stock photo fits. That keeps your AI Chips for the images that need them.
The product shortcode now works in every content box on your store, including the homepage and global template texts.
Add a shortcode to any text area to show a product card right where you want it, such as a favourite pick on your homepage. This change came from a member request.
Improved: stores keep serving pages if a background service has a problem, instead of going offline.
Fixed: visitor stats on busy stores could be incomplete because the background sync timed out.
Fixed: store login, sign up and password pages had no proper titles or descriptions, and the store name did not fill in on account page titles and llms.txt.
Fixed: AI image prompts that the safety filter rejected still cost chips. They are now free and retried once with reworded text.
Fixed: on some stores the per category Subcategory Products switch did not save. It now works on every store.
Fixed: affiliate tracking links longer than 250 characters were cut short.
Fixed: small logos looked blurry because they were stretched, and large logos could spill out of the header. Logo uploads now show the recommended size.
Fixed: store login links stopped working after you changed your account email.
Fixed: some domains showed the wrong registration or nameserver status.
Fixed: Clear Cache did not refresh settings and header scripts, and could get stuck on Clearing.
You can now turn any product page link into a product in your store.
Paste up to 20 links at a time into Product Importer, and each one becomes a product with a custom offer, AI written content and up to eight gallery images. Use it for merchants outside your connected networks, or to add a few products fast without searching.
Shoppers see a "Click for price" label in place of a price, and you can edit that text to suit your store. Use it for products whose price changes often, or where you would rather send visitors to the merchant to see the current price.
You can now ask AI which Product Finder results suit your store.
Click Check Recommended and each result gets a Yes, Maybe or No score against your niche. Hover over a score to see the reason. Add the Yes products with confidence and skip the ones that would look out of place, instead of judging every result by hand.
You can now show your own logo on a custom offer in place of the Recommended badge.
Add a logo to the offer and visitors see that brand instead of a general badge. Offer rows on product pages and in the cart also show each merchant's logo now, so visitors can tell at a glance where they are buying from.
On product pages, the whole offer box is now the affiliate link, not just the button inside it.
Visitors who click anywhere in the box go straight to the merchant, with your affiliate tag in place. A bigger target is easier to tap on phones and means fewer missed clicks. This change came from a member request.
