release-icon-5

Table of Contents

Focused on administrative efficiency, advanced bot handling, onboarding, and vastly enhanced banner preview and analytics capabilities.

Here’s what’s new in Pandectes v5.3.0:

Highlights

  • EU Withdrawal Button & Form & Email Flow: Added full support for the new EU Withdrawal Button flow, including a dedicated form submission and automated email confirmation. This implements the requirements of EU Directive 2023/2673, providing consumers with a clear, standardized way to withdraw from service contracts directly in-store.
  • New Consent Analytics Report: Re-engineer your data visibility with an advanced, dedicated Consent Analytics report view. This comprehensive section includes a compliance Health Score, interactions-over-time trends, device breakdowns, engagement funnel flows, and deep-dive page-level analytics to provide merchants with actionable, granular compliance insights.
  • Intuitive Onboarding Wizard: Introduced a completely revamped onboarding wizard designed to get new stores up, running, and compliant faster than ever with step-by-step guidance.

New Features

  • New Consent Summary Statistics: Added a highly visible, real-time Consent Summary widget directly onto the main app dashboard. Merchants can now track key performance indicators, such as Banner Impressions, Interaction Rate, and Consent Rate, at a glance across dynamic timeframes (Today, Yesterday, Last 7/30 days), alongside a quick-view country breakdown, without leaving the dashboard.
  • Source-Managed Cookie Promotion: When a cookie previously auto-detected is manually edited or saved, it is automatically promoted to source-managed status. This gives merchants explicit control over their cookie declarations and prevents auto-scan results from overwriting manual configurations.
  • UI Discoverability Improvements: Added “New” badges to the Reports and Settings sections to highlight recently introduced features, and cleaned up plan-tier bullet points for clearer plan comparison.

Improvements

  • Live Site Preview Scoping: The live site preview feature is now restricted to the new banner only. For stores not yet on the new banner, the option is disabled to prevent mismatched previews.
  • Preview Analytics Isolation: Analytics events are no longer fired during live preview sessions in banner settings. This keeps reporting data clean and prevents test interactions from affecting real consent metrics.

Fixes

  • Tab Switching in Preview Mode: Resolved an issue where unsaved form edits would be discarded when switching between tabs while in preview mode. Changes are now preserved throughout the session.
  • Toggle Button Color Transparency: Fixed color transparency handling for toggle button content, correctly applying it based on the button variant (solid or outline).
  • Border Width Slider: Corrected a display typo on the border width slider’s current value indicator.
  • Pagination Counts with Search Filters: Fixed incorrect pagination counts being displayed when active search filters reduced the visible result set.
  • Scan Recommendations Guard: Scan recommendations are now only applied when the applyRecommended flag is explicitly enabled, preventing unintended changes during partial scan workflows.
  • Files API Deduplication: The Shopify Files API integration now matches files by exact URL filename, eliminating false duplicates that could occur when filenames partially overlap.
  • Amazon Integration: Fixed the Amazon script to correctly include its embed code and reliably retrieve the global Amazon object across store configurations.
  • Checkout Settings & Headless Stores: Checkout settings are now correctly published when saved on headless storefronts, or when headless mode is being enabled for the first time.
  • Locale Truncation on Install: Store locale values are now properly truncated on install, and errors during the report loader phase are surfaced correctly rather than failing silently.
  • Archive Row Reload: Fixed a single-row reload ordering issue in the OD archive view.
  • Script Blocker Safety: Added a guard in unPatchCreateElement to handle read-only environments gracefully, preventing errors on stores with restricted DOM configurations.
