silver.eShop 4.1: Forms via drag & drop and time-controlled actions in the online shop
With the release of silver.eShop 4.1, silver.solutions is introducing additional functions for the simple administration of online shops and content and landing pages. A new forms engine helps shop administrators to quickly generate forms for a wide variety of purposes, while the new planning tool enables time-controlled actions in the shop.
In addition to a technical update that makes the shop solution compatible with eZ Platform 2.5, the eContent storage module in silver.eShop 4.1 can now generate readable, multilingual URLs using data from the ERP or PIM. The translated category or product names thus become readable URLs.
New forms engine in silver.eShop 4.1
The shop administrator or editor can use the new forms engine to generate a wide variety of forms quickly and easily using drag & drop. Users insert the forms in the online shop or on the website, for example on landing pages or at the end of the checkout. They can also be sent by e-mail via a link. The customer's entries are returned by e-mail or CSV.
silver.eShop 4.1 offers numerous form modules with which a shop operator can, for example, create forms for the following scenarios:
- Inquiry form for services
- Measurement of satisfaction
- Product feedback
- Sweepstakes
Planning e-commerce campaigns
The new planning options make landing pages even more flexible and dynamic. Shop administrators can prepare and time actions. You define exactly when an action starts and ends. For example, administrators can use the new feature to automatically exchange product sliders with promotional items on a desired time and date.
Shop administrators can use the timeline to look into the future and call up a preview of the page on a specific promotion day. With the new functionality it is easy to control which content and actions are displayed at which time or day.
