We’re excited to announce the latest release of the Pandectes GDPR Compliance app, now proudly BFS-certified by Shopify! This version introduces powerful new features, major enhancements, and key bug fixes, all designed to further improve compliance, performance, accessibility, and user experience.

Here’s what’s new in Pandectes v4.2.0:

New Features

  • Google Privacy Terms – Translations Support: Merchants can now localize the Google Privacy Terms link to match their store language settings.
  • GCM Compliance Check in Integrations: A new integration section verifies whether your current setup aligns with Google Consent Mode (GCM) v2 requirements.
  • Live Banner Designer with Two-Column Layout: Customize your cookie banner with a real-time preview, improved layout options, and greater design flexibility.
  • A11Y (Accessibility) Improvements: Our cookie banner now includes several accessibility updates to ensure a more inclusive experience.

Improvements

  • Lazy Loading for All Images: Improves loading performance and LCP metrics across the app by deferring image loads until needed.
  • Responsive Dashboard Improvements: The admin interface has been fine-tuned for better responsiveness across devices.
  • Translation Editor Layout Optimization (BFS): Removed full-width view to enhance readability and consistency.
  • Banner Settings Restructure (BFS): The β€œReopen Banner Settings” section is now split into two clearer subsections for easier configuration.
  • Category Color Clarification (BFS): Updated category label colors to avoid confusion and improve visual hierarchy.
  • Theme/Assets Write Removal (BFS): The app no longer performs direct writes to theme or asset files, aligning with Shopify’s latest BFS guidelines.
  • Expanded Cookie Name Field Support: Cookie names can now include extended characters (e.g., #, /), improving compatibility.
  • Streamlined Pandectes-Rules Warnings: Warning prompts are now centralized within the Integrations and Blocker pages.
  • Onboarding Warning Toggle: The pandectes-rules warning has been disabled during onboarding to simplify setup.
  • Grammar & Spelling Enhancements: Numerous content updates throughout the app to improve clarity and professionalism.

Fixes

  • Language Settings Redirect: Changing language now redirects users to the correct translation settings page.
  • No More Duplicate pandectes-rules Files: Resolved an issue where multiple rule files could be created unintentionally.
  • List Sorting & Filtering Persistence: Filters and sorts in cookies, rules, and recommendations lists now persist after changes.
  • Pie Chart Label Overlap Fixed: Improved visualization of pie charts in the scan report page to prevent label collisions.
  • Modal Warning Cleanup: Closing modals in cookies/rules now properly hides the β€œUnsaved changes” message.
  • Banner Preview Fixes: Banner preview now functions correctly when β€œShow on Landing Page” or Geolocation options are enabled.
  • Back Button Navigation Improvements: The back button behavior is now consistent and intuitive across the app.

We hope these updates enhance your experience with our application. Thank you for your continued support.
