It ended up taking much longer than expected to track down a show stopper issue in the Hotcakes 3.0.1 release. Will Strohl found the issue during QA... basically Hotcakes was including a segment ( "/slug/" ) in the URLs for all products and we had a really difficult time figuring out the cause. Eventually Nirav Sanghvi, an Application Development Manager at Arrow Digital, traced the issue to the installation template. After much trial and error he was able to create a new version of the template which does not adversely affect the URL behavior. The changes have all been pushed to Github and a new package has been created... which we are currently testing. I expect that we will be able to release 3.0.1 this week.

Following 3.0.1 we will begin work on 3.1.0 - our next major version. We already have a substantial enhancement that we intend to integrate which allows the promotions engine to work with product variants. In addition, we enhanced the product so that it will now run properly in a subfolder or virtual directory. Lastly, we will be evaluating the effort involved in supporting DNN 9.

Our testing efforts were successful and as a result, Hotcakes 3.0.1 was released today. You can read the blog post for more details: https://mmmcommerce.com/R...ommerce-301-released . We will be publicizing this release in as many channels as possible over the coming days.

Hi,

What's the minimal dnn version supported?

Cheers,

I tried the latest module installation on an 8.0.3 build running the older version of HotCakes 1.x. It gives me a huge DB error where this is a small part of it. Any ideas? We are in Azure DB and Azure Web.

It looks like it might be because the new package isn't Azure compliant from a database perspective where HotCakes used to be. We tested it here: http://evs.dnnsoftware.com/. Am I sniffing down the wrong path?
