This week we deployed our first update of the year! Woo hoo! 
Highlights
- There's a new 'hero' widget on the site homepage and other areas. It's a more modern sliding panel which shows highlights from area of the site. Works on mobile nicely too! Here's an example screenshot;
- Improvements to Product Link dialog & popup panel. This is something shabaz fed back to us a couple of months ago. We've made multiple improvements;
- Better quality results
- Includes min order qty
- Fits more on screen
- Results formatted nicely
- More likely to automatically find Newark/Farnell-equivalent SKU.
- We've also made changes to what happens when the product isn't available...
- We now show all product links / Buy Buttons in content (and widgets), even if the product isn’t available for the user's country
- The ‘not found’ message now has options to search for the product on our stores
- The idea is that you always gets an option to research the product & don’t hit a dead-end
- We now send an email reminder to users who have asked to sign up to Community when they're registering with one of our store websites.
- Extended the clickable area of our buttons.. one of those silly usability things we realised needed fixing.
