Related products
Axis was missing this highly wanted feature for a long time. And now we have it. See the Related tab on the product edit window.
Modular order totals
Any module now can add it's own order total that will affect the grand total. This feature allows to add the coupon discounts or additional fees based on address, payment or shipping method.
To add your own order total add the config section with order total description to the global order totals section. See the module example: https://github.com/axis/order-total
Modular config options
This feature is very important for the third party developers. It allows to add module specific logic to config option without adding the files to the library folder.
Other imporvements
Table rates shipping interface
You can now add the shipping rates by the hand with the new interface. The old import/export functionality moved to this page also.
Interface to add the root catalog category
Many of the customers accidently removes the root category. Adding of the new wasn't intuitive and easy enough. We hope this will help you to continue to use the Axis after some mistakes done.
Cms news box
A new Axis_Cms_Box_News added. It allows to output the pages of some category in separate box. This can be used to create some kind of news box or any other similar functionality.
