What's New in Infigo | July 2025

We’ve added a configurable setting to control the left sidebar in MegaEdit (Infigo’s online editor) and Invent, letting you hide the sidebar panel when it’s not needed. Previously, the left-hand panel (which contains tabs for images, clipart, pages, etc.) would always display as long as at least one content tab was active, even if you preferred a cleaner workspace. Now administrators can decide whether that panel should be visible by default. This feature is especially useful when the design interface feels cluttered or when using a single feature in MegaEdit – you can give end users a more focused editing canvas.

This enhancement benefits designers and end-users who want a simplified interface, as well as site owners catering to less tech-savvy users. By toggling the sidebar off, you maximize the working area and remove potential distractions. The setting also fully supports right-to-left (RTL) languages, you can similarly hide the side panel (which would appear on the opposite side) for a cleaner UI.

Highlights

• New “Hide Left Panel” setting: A boolean option has been added within MegaEdit and Invent to show or hide the left sidebar panel.

• Default behavior remains unchanged (sidebar visible when content tabs exist), but setting Hide Left Panel = true will collapse the sidebar by default for a cleaner editor interface.

• Improves user focus: Especially helpful for simple products or one-step editing workflows, where the extra panel could confuse or clutter the view.

• Fully tested with right-to-left mode, ensuring the toggle works for both left-to-right and right-to-left interfaces.

Storefront administrators can now enable a smoother static image gallery on product pages. A new “Product image style” setting in Appearance Settings lets you fix the product image container to a 16:9 aspect ratio. Enabling this ensures that all product images display at a uniform height, eliminating the “jump” or flicker that otherwise happens when cycling through images of different sizes. The result is a more polished and stable gallery for customers viewing product landing pages. Thumbnails and main images are better aligned – the system even applies your theme’s Light background to image placeholders and shows a “+X” overlay if more than 5 images are present – delivering a cleaner, more professional look.

At a Glance

• New Product image style option (Default or 16:9 aspect ratio) for product images

• Consistent image carousel height prevents layout shifts between images

• Smoother user experience when browsing product images (no flickering or off-center cursor issues)

• Thumbnails and main image use theme backgrounds; additional images beyond 5 are indicated for clarity

New 16/9 Behaviour

The customer search functionality within MegaScripts (and the corresponding API) has been extended to support new filters, making it easier to find specific user accounts. You can now search for customers by an external ID or by their order history (e.g. whether they have placed an order). This enhancement broadens the criteria available for customer queries, which is particularly useful for integration scenarios and targeted marketing or cleanup tasks.

For example, if you synchronize customers from an external MIS, you can locate a user in Infigo by using the external reference ID instead of email or name. Additionally, you can filter for customers who have placed orders (or conversely, those who have never ordered) to support campaigns or data maintenance (like identifying dormant accounts). These new search options empower administrators and developers to quickly get the exact customer lists they need without manual filtering.

Highlights

• External ID lookup: Search queries can include an external customer ID, making it simple to find the matching Infigo user record linked to an outside system.

• Order-based filtering: Ability to filter customers by order activity (for instance, find all customers who have made at least one purchase, or those with no orders yet).

• Extends the existing /customers-search API endpoint and MegaScript functionality to cover these two use cases, on top of the standard name/email filters.

• Helps with system integrations (synchronizing users by external keys) and with marketing/admin tasks (segmenting users by purchase history).

• Saves time for admins – no need to export and manually cross-reference data; these filters can be applied directly in scripts or API calls for quick results.

You can now define and capture product attributes on a per-version basis, when utilising versioned Multipart products. This feature is able to integrate with MIS platforms like CERM. For example, you could allow a unique description for each version of a product. These version-specific attributes are configured simply by naming convention and will be displayed and saved separately for each version.

Highlights

• Per-version attributes support: Administrators can create product attributes that apply to each version individually (e.g., each version can have its own description or code).

• Easy setup via naming convention: Any product attribute whose system name begins with "Version_" will automatically be treated as a version-specific attribute and shown under each version instead of at the overall product level.

• Initial support for text fields: Currently supports text-based attributes (such as single-line text or text area) for versions, with potential for other types in the future.

• Seamless cart display: In the shopping cart and order details, version-specific attributes appear with their corresponding version, while standard product attributes remain with the main product entry – ensuring clarity for end users.

Setting up payment gateways is now simpler and more fool-proof thanks to a review and refinement of our payment-plugins. Configuration screens across multiple gateway plugins have been updated to provide clearer tool-tips, up-to-date field descriptions and a more consistent layout, so administrators can integrate providers quickly and confidently, with far less trial-and-error.

Highlights

• Clearer configuration pages – many payment plugin now shows helpful guidance for each setting, so you know exactly what information is required.

• Current-API credential handling – numerous plugins have been aligned with the latest authentication flows used by their respective providers, reducing the risk of connectivity errors.

• UI consistency – improved styling and layout bring payment-gateway setup pages into line, making administration more intuitive.

• Under-the-hood code review – extensive cleanup and best-practice updates increase reliability, security and long-term maintainability.

By keeping gateway plugins modern and easy to configure, these enhancements translate directly into smoother, more dependable checkout experiences for your customers.
