Updated UI for Pay Account page — We've given the Pay Account page a mini-makeover. With a simplified workflow and no more confusing options, we hope you agree that it's a nice improvement on the previous version.

-
Price cache added to Cache Management — For sites running version 4.06+, it's now possible to clear the price cache from the CMS Cache Management page. That's right - no more clicking your way through Advanced Settings → System Preferences → Tools → Pricing Matrix!

Standard & Custom Pages - together at last — Standard and Custom pages have always lived in 2 separate places in the CMS. But these pages are really not so different from each other - Standard pages are included by default in the CMS, and Custom pages are created by you.
So we decided to merge them into one handy location. And we threw in the Theme Layout for good measure.
-
Section menus with no sub-pages — Previously, the default behaviour for a section menu without any sub-pages was to hide the parent menu item. After user feedback, we've updated the functionality.

-
New widget for Consolidated Note Lines — A new widget has been created for the display of note lines in the order history screen. Previously, when note line consolidation was enabled (i.e. the same product on 2 order lines gets merged to 1 line), any user-entered notes against the products would display on a separate line and be slightly confusing to the viewer.
Now, the 'Consolidated Note Line Description' widget can be added to the Search Order Result Lines Info template, allowing the note lines to be rendered with their relevant product, complete with consistent website styling.

Delivery Address B2C widget - country and state options — From version 4.03+, a new editing interface helps you update the country and state options on the Delivery Address B2C Widget.
