Aero Ecommerce October Update: Core Fixes, Admin Improvements & New Features

We’re excited to share the latest improvements to Aero, your Laravel-powered ecommerce platform. This month’s update focuses on refining both the Core and Admin experiences, with a mix of bug fixes, usability enhancements, and new features to help streamline your workflow.

Here’s what’s new:

Core Fixes & Enhancements

[Fixed] Date Range Input Bug
Projects not using UTC timezone were seeing incorrect dates in the date range setting input. This has now been resolved for accurate date handling across all timezones.
[Fixed] Fulfillment Items Table Typo
A small but important fix: the typo in the weight field has been corrected for clarity and consistency.
[Fixed] Weight Unit Fallback
If no weight unit is specified, Aero now defaults to grams, ensuring smoother fulfillment calculations.
[Fixed] Return Calculator Logic
The return calculator was incorrectly using the exchanged item’s price when the order only had one item. This has been corrected to reflect the proper pricing logic.

Admin Improvements

[Updated] Exchanged Item Pricing Behavior
Exchanged items now use the new item’s price by default. If you prefer the old behavior, you can revert it using the set_exchanged_item_price_to_old_item_price setting.
[Updated] Customer Redirect Flow
When creating or editing a customer, you’ll now be redirected to the customer edit page instead of the index page—making it easier to continue managing customer details without extra clicks.

New Features

[Added] Admin Name Resolver to Activity Logs
Activities in the admin panel now include a name resolver, making it easier to track who did what.
[Added] Variant Name in Fetch Route
The variants fetch route now includes the name field, improving API responses and frontend integration.

Aero Changelog 0.42.1 25/08/25

Stephen Fuller — Mon, 25 Aug 2025 10:32:55 +0000

Aero Commerce Core Reaches Version 0.42.1

Two new features have made its way into this version, the ability to flag order items in both orders and in fulfilments and the addition of a setting to allow a default weight unit that is then used across the site.

First lets take a look at order item flagging. This works in the same way a flags do for orders, you can set up your flags under Configuration > Flags and give them an name and colour. On a completed order hover over the order item and you will see a flag icon, clicking this will then allow you to add a flag against this item. This works the same within fulfilments also.

Set global weight unit.

You can now set your prefered weight measurment across the site by choosing the option under Configuration > Settings > Admin > Units. You can choose between g, kg, lb, oz. This will then set that unit across the admin panel for areas such as the Shipping Method options.

Aero Changelog 0.41.8 24/06/25

Stephen Fuller — Mon, 23 Jun 2025 15:12:33 +0000

Aero Commerce Core has now reached version 0.41.8 with many bug fixes. This also includes features through many of the supporting modules, such as the admin module. Below are some highlights for this month.

Resource List views get settings.

New settings have been added under Configuration> Settings > Admin that allow you to toggle how views, such as the Products list and Orders list, are displayed. You can now add a button to show or hide the filters on larger screens; you can also set the table to full width to show all the available data more comfortably.

Guest Customer / Existing Customer

Previously, orders created on the back-end admin side would always default to the guest customer when entering the customer details. Now you have the option to default this to existing customers instead by toggling the “Default to guest customer” to off.

Bulk actions for setting filters.

The option to hide, show or select specific filters is now available as a bulk action on categories, manufacturers, collections and combinations. This will save time going through each item and setting the filters manually.

Change how tax is displayed at checkout.

This update will be a welcome addition for many B2B companies; it has always been the case that, with the initial B2C focus, prices on the checkout included tax and VAT, as shown in the image below…

However, now, with a setting found under Configuration > Settings > Checkout, you can choose whether you want prices to be shown as inclusive of VAT or exclusive of VAT.

It can then display the tax as itemised on the checkout, as shown below.

In conclusion, Aero Commerce Core version 0.41.8 brings a host of improvements and new features that enhance both functionality and user experience. The introduction of customizable resource list views, the ability to default to existing customers for backend orders, bulk actions for setting filters, and flexible tax display options at checkout are significant updates that cater to a wide range of user needs. These enhancements not only streamline administrative tasks but also provide greater control and efficiency for businesses. We look forward to seeing how these updates benefit your operations and welcome any feedback you may have.

Aero Changelog 0.41.5 27/05/25

Stephen Fuller — Tue, 27 May 2025 08:17:03 +0000

Aero Commerce has released version 0.41.5, With this version you can now place pages in a draft form so that they don’t show on the front end until ready, an option has been added to prevent out of stock items being added to MOTO orders and the Opayo Module has been updated to support Google Pay.

Show / Hide Pages

Under CMS > Pages under the content field you will now find a check box that says “Show / hide this page at a particular time”, toggling this option allows you to set dates when you would like to show or hide the page at which is useful for pages that are not yet ready or for content that are date sensitive.

Prevent out of stock items being added to MOTO Orders

On a previous update Aero Added the option to prevent out of stock items being added to an order, this can be over ridden on an order by ticking the Configuration option on the page. This update improves this functionality by removing the + icon next to items that are out of stock when the allow option is not checked so that items can’t be added in the first instance rather than them being added on the product picker then showing an out of stock error on the order screen.

Aero Changelog 0.40.0 25/02/25

Stephen Fuller — Tue, 25 Feb 2025 11:29:54 +0000

Aero Commerce has released version 0.40.0, which includes numerous bug fixes. Users can now manually set a default image quality by configuring the IMAGE_FACTORY_DEFAULT_QUALITY option in the platform environment. Additionally, there are a couple of new features that we will discuss in more detail below.

Tax Calculation based on shipping or billing address.

By default, Aero always calculated TAX based on the shipping address, and if there was no shipping address, it would use the billing address. Now, a new option in the admin panel has been added to allow the option to default to shipping for calculating TAX. Untick the “Use Shipping Address To Calculate Tax” option to always use the billing address for tax calculation instead.

Product Visibility Bulk Action

It is now possible to carry out a bulk action on products to change the visibility of selected items. Just filter the products on the product listings page, select the items and choose “manage status & visibility” from the bulk action drop-down menu.
