Overview
Release 143, was one of (if not the) biggest releases we've ever done. With this release a number of banner features went out as well as more than two-dozen bug fixes.
Banner Features
Better Media Component
With this release, we pushed out a new version of our Media/Text component that allows for much more control over its appearance and behavior.
Spacing/Width Defaults (Desktop & Mobile)
We’re on a quest to enable sites of any width. In this release, we’ve introduced settings in the style guide that allow you to adjust the default width of sections. As a bonus, we’ve also introduced the ability to configure default padding on desktop and mobile.
Box Shadows
With this release you're now able to add shadows to any box.
Sticky Buy Button
When a page with a product component on it is viewed on mobile, an "Add to Cart" button will now follow the user as they scroll down the page.
Triple Whale Integration
For all our Triple Whale users out there, we've update our official integration to include support for add-to-cart event tracking!
PostScript Integration
We've also launched an official PostScript integration!
Product Collection Drag & Drop
With Release 143, products in a collection are now drag-and-droppable! The hope here is to make it easier to rearrange items displayed in a collection.
Recently**Used Components**
Another change that everyone will love; there's now a component category for Recently Used that shows the last ten components you've used.
Immediate sync of 5 most recent products
We changed the way that our sync job works so that as soon as you connect Unstack to your Shopify store for the first time, the five most-recently-updated products will be synced from your account. The aim here is to help more people start building more quickly and to make it a more seamless experience the first time someone loads their Unstack account.
