The most important news include:

1) There is new parameter to display products from all subcategories in category view. This means, that not only products from current category will be displayed in category view but all products from all subcategories of this category. For example: laptop can be displayed in category Laptops but also in its parent category Computers.

2) There is new option to display layout plugins in category or items view. This means that output of these views can be completely changed by layout plugins.

Example - standard category view is displayed (see following image):

Link to demo

With help of layout plugins this output can be changed, see image:

Link to demo

3) Variables which are displayed in emails or descriptions can have more formats. Example: In previous version it was only possible to display first name as following variables:

{b_name_first} ... First name set in billing address is displayed.
{s_name_first} ... First name set in shipping address is displayed.

As of version 3.5, the following formats can be used:

{b_name_first} ... First name set in billing address is displayed.
{s_name_first} ... First name set in shipping address is displayed.
{bs_name_first} ... First name set in billing address is displayed. If it does not exist then first name set in shipping address will be displayed.
{sb_name_first} ... First name set in shipping address is displayed. If it does not exist then first name set in billing address will be displayed.

Even shipping and payment country or region rules include such type of parameters (if empty then Shipping Address, if empty then Billing Address).

4) It is now possible to change (add, remove) columns in product list in administration. With help of 'Columns - Product List (Administration)' paramter you can select which columns will be displayed, but even which can be edited in place (valid for text or textarea fields). It can also be set the order of the columns.

See video (start at 4:10)

{phct tag=yt2|l=grt-P66uUBM?t=250}

5) The display of a specific category or categories can be forced by a menu link parameter 'Force Category' in Items view.
