The latest updates, improvements, and fixes to Your Next Store. Subscribe via RSS.
Live and test invoices are kept fully distinct — different tables, different numbering, different exports. Test-mode checkouts no longer pollute your live books.
New REST endpoints expose the Universal Commerce Profile format so external tools and marketplaces can consume store data via a standard contract.
Checkout now auto-filters shipping methods by the shopper's destination country. Methods that don't serve the destination stay hidden instead of erroring at the shipping step.
Invoices generated in Stripe test mode are tagged and filtered separately from live invoices, so bookkeeping stays clean while you run test checkouts.
Grant, revoke, and adjust loyalty points directly from the admin panel. Tier editing gets a proper form with validation and preview.
Subscribe to order status changes via webhook and push real-time updates to your own systems — shipping apps, customer notifications, internal dashboards.
Customers can cancel active subscriptions from the portal. Cancellation respects billing-period boundaries and doesn't interrupt in-flight shipments.
Shoppers now have a self-serve portal to pause, cancel, or change their subscriptions. No support tickets for basic lifecycle operations.
Configure subscription plans with variable billing intervals, trial periods, and tiered pricing — all from a single admin surface.
The subscriptions admin table now surfaces customer name and email alongside plan and status, so you can segment and contact subscribers without leaving YNS.
Superadmins can locate license keys directly from the dashboard — searchable by key, store, or customer. Faster than scanning the orders table.
The admin sidebar now hides tools tied to the store builder a merchant isn't using. Less clutter, fewer dead-end clicks.
Superadmin store list gets a builderType column so it's obvious at a glance which stores run on the legacy builder versus the AI builder.
Product subscriptions are now a first-class feature in YNS, built directly on top of Stripe. Sell recurring products with flexible intervals and pricing — no plugins, no bolt-ons. Subscriptions are deeply integrated with products and checkout, so recurring revenue works as a core capability of the platform; clean, reliable, and predictable by default. Currently in private beta; reach out if you'd like to test it.
