Description
Karl and Taylor talk music and video games, everything from Taylor's limited cultural upbringing and getting to experience classic rock for the first time to the ins and outs of the Nintendo Switch. Taylor speaks to building a custom bundler into a Shopify theme and new issues related to applying a discount, including problems with a method that used to work well in the past with URL parameters. In addition to this, another gift with purchase issue when applying a discount doesn't work perfectly and other ways to approach this with customers. Karl provides more background on the difficulties involved with a major migration from BigCommerce to Shopify for a merchant with over 250,000 orders. Karl and Taylor then dig into Shopify Editions for summer 2023 and what it means for Shopify and app and theme devs. // Resources //https://www.shopify.com/editions/summer2023Flex sections: https://www.shopify.com/editions/summer2023#flexible-sections-featuredB2B Features: https://www.shopify.com/editions/summer2023#b2b-on-shopify-drives-growth-featuredOptimize your Shop: https://www.shopify.com/editions/summer2023#shop-store-updatesUpdates to Shop Minis SDK: https://www.shopify.com/editions/summer2023#shop-minis-developers New APIs for custom validation at cart and checkout: https://www.shopify.com/editions/summer2023#checkout-extension-updates-featured APIs to support more than 100 product variants: https://www.shopify.com/editions/summer2023#product-variants Generated test data for development stores: https://www.shopify.com/editions/summer2023#dev-onboarding-improvements  // Changelog // App review summaries: https://shopify.dev/changelog/app-review-summariesPreview the one-page checkout, thank you page, and new customer account pages directly in the checkout editor: https://shopify.dev/docs/apps/checkout/best-practices/testing-ui-extensions#test-the-extension-in-the-checkout-editor // Picks of the Week //Matrixify Shopify App: https://apps.shopify.com/excel-export-importShopify Display: https://shopify.supply/products/display  // Other resources discussed //Existing Shopify Plus feature, catalogs: https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/b2b/catalogs Shop channel: https://apps.shopify.com/shopSet up the Shop channel: https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/online-sales-channels/shop/setup Blink by Malcolm Gladwell [book]: https://amzn.to/45IfaiH, https://www.amazon.com/Blink-Power-Thinking-Without/dp/0316010669 Baymard Institute, ecommerce UX research: https://baymard.com/
