Upcoming Webinar | Leveraging Mainstream AI In Your Storefront Builds

Date: Wednesday, 06 Aug 2025 - 03:00 PM (BST)

Join us in August for a fast-paced, practical session that shows how low-cost, mainstream AI can make serious improvements to the efficiency of your storefront builds.

By pairing Infigo’s web-to-print platform with a low-cost, mainstream tools such as ChatGPT, Google Gemini and Microsoft Copilot, you can accelerate nearly every stage of a storefront build—from first brief to go-live—while still keeping the all-important human elements.

What we’ll cover

  • Prompt-engineering fundamentals – the “golden rules” for writing clear, contextual prompts, selecting the right model and iterating until the answer is spot-on.
  • Hands-on examples you can copy and adapt, including:
  • Generating polished product imagery in seconds.
  • Drafting SEO-friendly copy, error-checking emails and crafting dynamic token-driven templates.
  • Re-formatting complex data with ease.
  • Using AI to summarise, analyse and present storefront data.
  • Troubleshooting & critique loops – proven techniques for diagnosing a poor AI response and nudging it to excellence.

Why attend?

Whether you’re a seasoned storefront architect or just starting out, you’ll leave with immediately usable tips that cut build time, boost quality and free you to focus on the creative, high-value work only humans can do.

Consistent Height for Product Image Carousel

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

Implementation: To use this feature, go to Admin  > Appearance Settings and locate Product image style. Select With 16/9 aspect ratio to enforce a fixed image container for product galleries, or choose Default to keep the original behavior. Save the settings. The product page image carousel will now maintain a consistent 16:9 frame when the aspect ratio option is enabled.

New 16/9 Behaviour

Default Behaviour

Consistent Add-to-Cart for Versioned Products

Previously, versioned products (those with multiple versions or parts) could behave unpredictably when using the “No redirect” add-to-cart setting – often adding duplicate items to the cart. Now, the system ensures a smooth, predictable experience: versioned products will always redirect to the cart upon adding to basket, regardless of the “No redirect” setting. Storefront managers will notice a helpful warning message in Catalog Settings explaining that versioned products ignore the no-redirect setting. This improvement prevents multiple identical items from unintentionally piling up in the cart, making the checkout process clearer for customers.

At a Glance

  • Versioned products now consistently redirect to the cart on add-to-cart

  • New admin warning appears when “No redirect” is selected for versioned items

  • Prevents duplicate cart line items and confusion during checkout

  • Ensures a smoother purchasing experience for products with versions

Custom Scripts Supported on Versioned Upload Page

For those who need advanced customization, the versioned product upload page now respects your Infigo Settings “PageHeadContainer” and “PageFooterContainer” scripts. This means any custom JavaScript or CSS you inject via these fields will also run on the multipart versioned artwork upload iframe. Previously, that page was isolated and could not be easily styled or scripted; now you have full control to tailor its look and behavior to match your brand’s needs. This enhancement is particularly useful for adding tracking scripts, custom styling, or additional dynamic functionality to the versioned upload workflow.

At a Glance

  • Added support for PageHeadContainer/PageFooterContainer on versioned upload iframes

  • Allows injection of custom CSS/JS into the versioned product artwork upload page

  • Enables storefront-specific look & feel adjustments and tracking on upload dialogs

  • Greater consistency and branding across all steps of the customer upload experience

Implementation: In your Admin > Infigo Settings configuration, use the PageHeadContainer field to add any <script> or <style> code that should load in the head of the versioned upload page, and/or use PageFooterContainer for scripts to load at the bottom. Save your changes. These scripts and styles will now be included in the versioned product upload iframe, allowing your custom code to execute on that page.

Approver Comments On Approval Emails

Your customers will now see any comments you leave when approving a job:

During approval you can enter notes such as “Colour looks good – proceed to print.” Those notes can be merged into the approval-confirmation email with the use of a new variable data token, so the requester has full context without needing to log back in.

Highlights

  • New email-token %Workflow.ApprovalNotes% is available in all approval-workflow templates.

  • Fresh storefronts automatically include it in the “Approval Workflow Approved” email.

  • Existing sites can drop the token into their customised templates in seconds.

Versioned MultiPart Product Updates

Sum Versions When Checking Order Min/Max

When ordering smaller quantities of numerous versions of the same item, your customers may run up against "minimum quantity" warnings, where the quantity of each version is being considered individually so a minimum specified value is never reached.

To rectify this, we've’ve added a smart new option that checks the combined quantity of every version in your job instead of each version separately.

Highlights

  • New storefront setting: Consider versions on minimum/maximum basket quantity checks (enabled by default).

  • When on, the system totals all versions before applying product Min/Max rules, so multi-version jobs validate just once.

  • Fully compatible with CERM: honour CERM limits when you want them, or bypass them when “Ignore CERM quantity limits” is on.

  • No changes needed for single-version products—everything works as before.

 

 


Clearer Tooltips & Labels When Ordering Multiple Versions

When you switch a Multipart product into Versioning mode you’ll now see helpful guidance exactly where it’s needed.

  • A new tooltip can be added by the store admin to provide critical information and context.

  • The versioning panel now clearly labels each field – “Name” for your custom version title and “Quantity” for the number of copies. These strings are customisable and can be changed per language on the storefront.

Why it matters

These additions improve clarity for shoppers ordering multiple personalised versions, reducing support queries and mis-orders.

Highlights

  • Store-specific wording in any language

  • Tooltip only shows if content is provided, keeping the UI clean

  • Works in product groups and individual products

 

Min/Max Order Limits Displayed On Product Landing Pages

Ordering is now clearer: storefronts can show your minimum and maximum order sizes directly on the product page, so you know the exact limits before you start typing.

Highlights

  • New Show min and max on Product Page setting (Catalog settings).

  • New Show min and max on CERM Product Page setting (CERM plug-in ➜ UI).

  • Displays “Min: x Max: y” under the quantity box; shows “No Max” when unlimited.

  • Quantity input now prevents values outside these limits and back-end validation enforces them.

  • Works with pack sizes and consiers MultiPart versioned products too.

 

Easier PO Tracking in "My Account" And Admin Areas

Your customer's My Orders page just got smarter, with the ability to keep track of purchase order numbers with greater ease.

With a new optional setting, storefronts can display the PO number right on each order card and let shoppers find orders by typing any part of the PO string—no exact match required in case only part is known or desired.

Highlights

  • Toggle on/off: Customer Settings → Orders [Section] → “Include PO Number on order card properties”.

  • Quick view: For your customers, PO number appears on each order card (when available) in their account area.

  • Flexible search: Enter any portion of the PO (e.g. “573” finds “PO6573”).

  • Back-office visibility: PO numbers now show in Sales → Orders whenever present, regardless of payment method.

Smarter Quantity Limits for CERM Products

Quantity Limits Mode (replacing IgnoreCERMQuantityLimits) gives you four clear choices for enforcing min/max quantities in the Connect: CERM plugin:

  • Use CERM quantity limits

  • Use Infigo quantity limits

  • Use CERM limits with fallback to calculation limits when CERM is 0/0

  • Always use Calculation quantity limits

Your selection is honoured on every screen—Landing page, My Accounts, Basket and in Auto-create Quote, so shoppers always see the correct range whether the item is a product or a calculation.

Multiple Artwork Upload to Tharstern

Our Tharstern integration has been upgraded to handle multipart products with multiple artwork files. When a customer uploads several PDFs, PNGs, or JPEGs in the editor, the storefront now calls Tharstern’s /assets endpoint separately for each file, guaranteeing that every piece of artwork lands in the correct Tharstern job ticket. Successful transfers automatically add an “Assets OK” status to the MIS log; if a call fails, you’ll see “Connect Fail” plus the raw response in Extra Data—making troubleshooting quick and transparent.

Existing single-file products keep working exactly as before; the new flow triggers only when your product XML uses mode="asset" for multipart uploads.

What’s new

  • One call per file – PDFs, PNGs, and JPEGs are posted individually to Tharstern, preserving order and naming.

  • Clear job statuses – “Assets OK” for success, “Connect Fail” for any error, all logged in the MIS tab.

  • Full audit trail – Tharstern responses are stored in each order’s Extra Data field.

  • No disruption – Single-asset and non-Tharstern products remain untouched.

  • Scales with you – Just edit the XML <Usage> range to let customers upload more (or fewer) files.

EasyPost plug-in update: automated EORI for Northern Ireland shipments

With the latest release you can ship to NI without extra paperwork—store your company’s EORI once and the plug-in adds it to every EasyPost shipment that uses a supported carrier.

Highlights

  • Supported carriers include: DHL ECS, DPD UK, FedEx Cross Border and Royal Mail.

  • One-time setup: in Connect Settings, enter your EORI and set Tax ID Type = EORI—that’s it.

  • The EORI travels in the tax_identifiers block of every request, keeping shipments compliant and helping avoid clearance delays.

Accessibility & User-Experience (EAA 2025 readiness)

From mid-2025 all EU web stores must meet new accessibility rules. We’ve been rolling out improvements across your storefront to help you stay compliant. You can find out more about these requirements, here.

One major part of these new rules focuses on keyboard use and screen-reader support. As a result:

  • Every button, form control and link now carries a visible label or assistive aria-label.

  • Page regions use standard landmark roles so screen-reader users can jump straight to navigation, search and main content.

  • Tabbing order has been normalised on product, category, blog and search pages, making it possible to browse and add items to cart without a mouse.

No visual styling changes are expected, but you may notice clearer focus outlines when using the Tab key.

 

We'll discuss some other key updates in the sections below:


 

Keyboard “Skip to content” shortcut

When a page loads, keyboard-only users can now press Tab once to reveal a Skip to content button. Activating it (enter/return key) jumps straight past the site header to the page’s main area, saving countless extra key-presses to get past the page header.

Why you’ll like it

  • Faster, frustration-free navigation for power users and assistive-tech users

  • Consistent behaviour across every storefront page (home, product, basket, checkout, blog, etc.)

  • No configuration needed – already live on your storefronts

 

 


 

Better Accessibility: All Store Images Now Carry alt Text

Search engines and assistive technologies rely on alt text to understand images. We’ve made sure these are present everywhere—storefronts, product pages, baskets, even blog articles—so your sites meet modern accessibility guidelines out of the box.

Key points

  • Every image rendered by Infigo now has an alt attribute.

  • Where you provide descriptive text in the CMS, that text is used.

  • When you leave the field blank or direct input of alt text is not possible within the UI, we add an empty alt="", satisfying WCAG while encouraging you to supply real descriptions for SEO.

  • Many alt text fields are auto-populated based on the context of the image.

 


 

Keyboard-Friendly Attribute Selection

Your customers can now manage attribute selection on product landing pages without touching a mouse. Selecting values is possible with the Enter key as well as the Spacebar, and you can jump between choices with the arrow keys.

Highlights

    • Enter = Select/Deselect any radio or checkbox attribute

    • Arrow keys step through values in the same option group (with wrap-around)

    • Enter no longer adds to basket unless the cursor is in the Quantity box

    • Works in every product template and respects attribute-logic visibility

 


 

Keyboard-Accessible File-Upload Button

We’ve upgraded the File Upload button so it’s accessible to everyone—whether you prefer a mouse or the keyboard.

You can now tab to the upload control, see a clear focus outline, press Enter/Space to open the file-picker, and enjoy proper hover highlights when you point with a mouse.

What’s new

  • Full keyboard support (Tab ▸ Enter/Space)

  • Visible focus ring that meets WCAG AA contrast ratios

  • Consistent hover / active styling

  • No impact on existing upload workflows—everything just feels smoother

 


 

Accessible default templates for 2025 EAA compliance

To help your storefront meet the upcoming European Accessibility Act (EAA) deadline, we have refreshed every built-in content template with improved keyboard navigation and screen-reader support.

Buttons, menus, sliders, and accordions now expose the correct ARIA roles and respond to Space / Enter presses, while logos and list blocks announce themselves properly to assistive technology. Your shoppers with disabilities will enjoy smoother, more compliant journeys – and you won’t need to retrofit code yourself.

Key improvements

  • Search icon and accordions open/close via keyboard as well as mouse

  • Navigation and slider dots now speak their purpose

  • Footer/header logos carry meaningful labels instead of empty alt text

  • List fragments render as real lists with role="list" for screen-readers

  • All default buttons now advertise their function with aria-labels
