Release Notes / Version 10.2.0.0 / Jul 18, 2025

Highlights

Release Information

The Znode 10.2.0.0 release introduces enhancements, performance upgrades, and minor bug fixes.

What’s New

Full-Screen Mode for Dynamic Widget (HTML Editor)

• In this release, the code editing experience for the Dynamic Widget in the admin console has been significantly improved:
• A gear icon and an "Open Dynamic Widget" button have been added to the Page Builder for both Commerce and CMS pages.
• Clicking either the gear icon or button opens a full-screen code editor for HTML, CSS, or JavaScript.
• Admins can now add unlimited code with a dynamic editor that supports scrolling for larger code blocks.
• A new confirmation pop-up ensures users do not accidentally leave the code editor without saving their changes.

User Address Book - Enhancement

• An External ID field has been introduced in the Admin Console UI, enabling administrators to associate an external identifier with both user and account addresses. 
• This addition provides greater flexibility for managing and linking user data with external systems or third-party services, allowing for easier integration and streamlined operations.
  
  

Performance Upgrade

• Application Log Optimization
  • Enhanced the application's logging system for improved performance and maintainability. Redundant and overly verbose log entries have been eliminated or consolidated, reducing log file size and clutter.
• Category Navigation Performance Optimization
  • The category navigation system has been optimized to improve page load performance and overall user experience. Previously, all categories and subcategories were loaded during the initial page load, causing slower load times and increased memory usage—particularly on pages with extensive category data.
  • With this update, only main categories are loaded initially. Subcategories are now retrieved dynamically upon user interaction (hover or click). A new Backend for Frontend (BFF) API has also been introduced to streamline communication between the frontend and backend, providing aggregated responses for more efficient data handling. 
• Optimization of Login Validation Calls
  • Duplicate validation API calls on login attempts have been addressed. Only a single validation call is now made per login, reducing unnecessary server load and optimizing performance.

API Enhancements

• Blogs-News API (V2)
  • The SEOUrl and BlogNewsCode are added in the response body
    
    
• Introduction of the new Shipping Estimates API
  • A new API has been introduced to overcome the issue of Shipping Estimates Deserialization

Breaking Changes 

• This release is fully backward-compatible and does not include any breaking changes.
