New feature for CSS Javascript Loader

Posted in Add Ons February 7th, 2011 by admin - Be the first to comment

While working on our Zencart modules which make use of jquery and its plugins extensively, I often run into this issue: one module which is released long ago is set to use 1.4.2 version while another module which has just been released is set to use 1.4.4 (or even 1.5.0). This results in multiple versions of jquery being loaded on the same page and slows down the site (or even stops certain things from working correctly).

To resolve that problem, I have added a new feature to our loader, this feature will greatly help in reducing the risk of loading the same library more than once. If you are a developer, feel free to grab the latest version from github and give it a try, you will find lots of sample code inside.

We will continue working on this feature to refine it.

New Zencart/ZenMagick Admin UI

Posted in Zencart February 2nd, 2011 by admin - Comments (1)

As you may know already, we are working on the new admin UI, and we have 2 great news for you:

1. We are revising our design to make it even friendlier, we would really appreciate it if you can review and give us comments and advices on the design

2. The new admin ui will be coded for ZenMagick, but it might be possible to use for Zencart as well.

  • home-1.png: this file shows the new admin UI concept. First of all, we want to group everything under a “Start” just like Windows. Each important link has hotkey. At the bottom of the box, you can see a search box: since the menu can grow huge with tons of links this search box will help the users to quickly locate the link they need. On the right hand side of the header navigation bar are the links to the catalog, help and quick search (please view quick-search.png)
  • home-2.png is another variation
  • quick-search.png: users can search for orders/products/customers using the quick search link.
  • category-list.png
  • category-edit.png
  • product-list.png
  • product-edit.png
  • category-list2.png
  • category-edit2.png
  • attributes-manager.png
  • attributes-sets.png
