Prestashop 1.7.3 | Everything that the new program update offers

PrestaShop has revolutionised the process of transforming traditional commerce into eCommerce since it was launched almost a decade ago. The free application based in Paris and Miami already has the support of more than 270,000 digital stores in 190 countries, so boasting of being the first Platinum Partner agency in Spain makes us especially happy. Addressing the program's current situation, we have come across the news of its recent update. PrestaShop 1.7.3 is available for everyone and from the Línea Gráfica Blog we want to break down the handful of new features that it proposes. Will they be enough to catapult its popularity? We can already tell you that they will.

What's new in PrestaShop 1.7.3

PrestaShop 1.7.3 includes a multitude of features and fixes that make it easier to use, understand and improve the user experience. We are talking about a revision that fixes the "weak" aspects of the program to make them more sustainable in the long term. Here is what you will find:

• PrestaTrust: This innovative feature authenticates the code of PrestaTrust-enabled modules and securely records the license information in the blockchain database.
• Support for right-to-left writing systems: PrestaShop now supports right-to-left (RTL) languages. This option is essential for selling in countries where RTL languages ​​such as Arabic, Hebrew or Persian are spoken.
• A new series of demo products , which will give PrestaShop a fresh and modern look.
• UI Kit: A new graphical identity for the core... and modules! UI Kit includes a coherent set of reusable components that work uniformly across the admin panel, plus Bootstrap 4 and jQuery 3.
• Symfony Migration: Three new pages have been migrated to Symfony, which will offer new components and exciting possibilities for module developers.

But beware, things don't end here. PrestaShop 1.7.3 also offers:

• Setting delivery time and compliance with European legislation .
• Automatic sending of alerts by PrestaShop when a product is low in stock .
• Possibility of editing stocks in bulk .
• Icelandic localization and Japanese installer. (This is of great interest to you, isn't it?)
