Admin users can also import the value of Canonical URL field using SEO Import.

Issues Resolved

[ZPD-6251] - Admin - The default profile of user was getting changed when a customer (shopper) account was converted to the admin account.

To resolve this issue, changes were made in ConvertShopperToAdmin method of UserService file.


[ZPD-6660/ZLMC-669] - Admin - In case of large data, after publish action was performed, the application used to show an error message.

To resolve this issue, changes were made in the following :

  • SetSchedulerParameters, GetEXEParameterForPublishCatalog and SetProductFeedParameter methods  of ERPTaskSchedulerService.cs

  • CallSearchIndexer method of SearchService.cs

  • SetSchedulerParameters method of scheduler parameters for ERP

  • GenerateImages method of PortalService.cs

[ZPD-6661/ZLMC-665] - Web store - Some Home page widgets were displaying data of other home page widgets due to home page caching.

To resolve this issue, changes were made in the GetContent method of WidgetDataAgent.cs file.


[ZPD-6675/ZLMC-664] - Web store - Category page used to break (in a scenario when the web store preview was disabled) when publish process progressed to 60% because old publish version SEO details used to get deleted immediately after the new publish version SEO details were inserted in Mongo.


[ZPD-6677/ZLMC-634] - Web store - “Search Results” label had no spacing between them and therefore an appropriate label was added in the resource file.


[ZPD-6776/ZLMC-684] - Application used to throw a NULL error after a coupon was applied for ZnodeCartPromotionAmountOffProduct type promotion.

To resolve this issue, changes were made in ApplyChildItemDiscount and  ApplyLineItemDiscount methods of ZnodeCartPromotionAmountOffProduct.cs
