Changelog

Subscriptions plans, translated extension emails, repaired extension support and faster product pages.

What's new

  • WooCommerce Subscriptions 9 subscription plans are supported, with plan prices and sign-up fees per currency and plans copied to translations.
  • Emails of WooCommerce extensions such as Subscriptions and Bookings are translated through one shared mechanism, so customers get them in their language.
  • Support for Product Bundles, Composite Products, Bookings, The Events Calendar, Gravity Forms and Print Invoices & Packing Lists, which had silently stopped, works again.
  • Amounts and thresholds of WooCommerce extensions convert to the shopper's currency through one multicurrency mechanism.
  • The cart and shipping follow the shopper's current language and currency instead of keeping data from an earlier one.
  • The per-currency payment gateway settings now list every gateway you enabled, including gateways offered only on some pages, and the note that payment will be made in another currency shows again under the gateway description.
  • WooCommerce Analytics can be filtered by language and shows consistent results.
  • The cart shows product short descriptions in the shopper's language.
  • The order withdrawal request email that WooCommerce sends to the shop now arrives in the admin's language.
  • When you translate a serialized custom field in the WooCommerce Multilingual product editor, numbers keep their type, and product data is read more safely.
  • On shop pages, the language switcher keeps the page's address parameters intact, including ones with characters such as &, # or quotes.
  • WooCommerce Multilingual is built from the same source as WPML and ships in step with it.
  • Security hardening: translated product attribute values are validated before they are saved.

Performance

  • Translated product pages and listings load faster, with gallery images read in one query, also for products shown by WooCommerce blocks.
  • The WooCommerce Orders list with multi-vendor plugins no longer runs thousands of database queries.
  • The WooCommerce Products admin list no longer slows down when String Translation is active.
  • Products without custom prices in a secondary currency no longer re-read their prices on every listing or sitemap view.
  • Translated URL rules are built once instead of on every read, which speeds up every shop page.
  • Looking up categories and tags by slug no longer repeats the same work on every call.
  • Product attribute lookups are refreshed once per request, and skipped for products that have no language yet.
  • WooCommerce Multilingual no longer rebuilds URL rules on every admin request.
  • WP-CLI commands on WooCommerce sites with String Translation use less memory.
  • Slow database queries per product attribute, introduced in WooCommerce Multilingual 5.6, are removed.

Fixes in multicurrency

  • A shopper who switches currency is charged in that currency, even when another request saves the session at the same moment.
  • Product Bundles and other container products holding a variable product can be bought in a secondary currency when only custom-priced products show.
  • On WooCommerce 9.6 and later, each bank-transfer account's currency can be set again in each currency's settings.
  • A coupon without a minimum or maximum amount stays unlimited in every currency, and rounding never makes a free product cost something.
  • The store currency's settings dialog in Multicurrency saves again without waiting for an exchange rate.
  • The Multicurrency settings no longer say the theme lacks a currency switcher widget when every widget area has one, and explain how to add another.
  • In a right-to-left admin, multicurrency exchange rates read in the correct order.

Fixes in Subscriptions

  • Paying an unpaid Subscriptions renewal order works when its variation and attribute were stored in different languages.
  • Subscriptions plans are copied to product translations.
  • With Subscriptions storewide plans, the cart charges the manually set sign-up fee instead of a converted one.
  • On a Subscriptions plan that uses the product price, the product page shows the manually set sign-up fee, not a converted one.
  • A product's manually set Subscriptions plan price takes priority over the storewide one, and fixed-discount plan prices apply.
  • Subscriptions sign-up fees convert to the shopper's currency when the legacy subscription types are hidden.
  • A fixed discount on a product's own Subscriptions plan converts to the shopper's currency.
  • Storewide fixed-discount Subscriptions plans subtract the discount in the shopper's currency.
  • The 'Manually set plan prices' button no longer shows on a Subscriptions product set to 'Sell one-time only'.

Fixes in Bookings

  • Bookings person types stay attached to a re-translated product, and saving a product no longer changes an unrelated post.
  • Untranslated bookings are no longer duplicated into other languages.
  • Booking costs in a second currency and the Create Booking page's currency are read correctly on servers that escape form data.
  • Accommodation Bookings use WooCommerce Multilingual's manual prices per currency for the booking cost.
  • Reinstalling Accommodation Bookings no longer resets WooCommerce Multilingual's rates per currency.
  • Accommodation Bookings data updates no longer pick up converted prices when a visitor browses in a secondary currency.
  • Bookings base costs per currency carry over correctly when WooCommerce Multilingual updates.

  • The booking screen of a translated copy shows its notes without a database error.
  • Field locking on a translation's edit screen works on products without Bookings panels.

  • "Order again" with Gravity Forms Product Add-Ons converts option prices from the right currency.
  • The Events Calendar tickets that already carry the wrong language are repaired.
  • The Events Calendar tickets attached to an event get the event's language.
  • The Events Calendar venues sync to translated events.
  • The Events Calendar translated events get the translated venue and organizer instead of the original ones.
  • Smart Coupons restrictions by product tag, shipping class or another taxonomy apply in every language.

  • With WooCommerce PayPal Payments, pages no longer log a "get_cart was called incorrectly" notice.

Fixes in emails

  • Every WooCommerce email can be translated, including several that had no translation option before.
  • Customer emails no longer contain WooCommerce text in the admin's language when WordPress uses the admin's locale.
  • Emails sent from the order screen with High-Performance Order Storage use the customer's language for tax labels and payment instructions.
  • Failed order, Cancelled order and backorder admin emails are in the admin's language, not the shopper's.
  • Emails whose settings were never saved end with WooCommerce's default additional content in the recipient's language.
  • The partial refund email keeps the subject the shop owner saved.
  • Customer emails show the shipping method in the customer's language when the admin works in another language.
  • An order keeps its original lines when an admin in another language resends its emails, runs an order action or changes its status.

Fixes in product translation

  • Updating a product description in one language no longer overwrites another language's translation.
  • A free variation stays free on its translations instead of being saved without a price, so it is purchasable in every language.

  • The product translation editor no longer fails when a variation has a list-type custom field set to translate.
