Changelog: April 2024

API

Added support for defining conditions when creating a Merchandising rule that affects the PurchasedWithCurrentCart recommendation. This allows you to, for instance, create rules that boost certain product brands if products of the same brand is found in the basket.

Merchandising: You can now perform merchandising based on the cart contents for the Purchased With Current Cart algorithm.

Fixed a bug where merchandising rules could not be configured to utilize a negative value for the Relative Datetime condition in the MyRelewise interface. This allows for timing-based merchandising rules, such as boosting new products by evaluating a unix timestamp against an offset Relative Datetime condition.
Fixed an issue where dragging your mouse outside a modal would close the modal unexpectedly.
Fixed an issue where only System Administrators were allowed to see the Apps menu.

Shopify Theme App Extension: Added a block for rendering a search results page.
Shopify Theme App Extension: Added the option to replace the default search overlay with Relewise's search overlay.
Web Components: Added the option to redirect the user from the search overlay component to a search page. This integrates the overlay even better with the search results component, as it will inherit the term search for by the user.

Vue Demo Shop: Improved responsiveness on the site, to give mobile users a better user experience.

Shopify theme app: Fixed an issue where the product Id handler could not properly parse backslashes.

Added an explanation of custom percentages and data key modifiers for boost/bury merchandising rules. Available here.
Added clarification on what it means to disable entities, how Relewise handles (removes) disabled entities, and what other options you have for filtering entities out of search and recommendation results. Available here.
Added clarification that performing tracking via Google Tag Manager requires the use of a custom API key. Available here.
Added descriptions of new relevance modifiers:
ProductCategoryDataRelevanceModifier
ProductCategoryRecentlyViewedByUserRelevanceModifier
VariantIdRelevanceModifier
ContentDataRelevanceModifier
ContentRecentlyViewedByUserRelevanceModifier
ContentCategoryDataRelevanceModifier
ContentCategoryRecentlyViewedByUserRelevanceModifier.

Added documentation for the ProductChange and VariantChange triggers. These triggers are useful for setting up Price Drop flows or Back in Stock flows, where the user's interest in a product can be leveraged upon a parameter of the product or its variant changing. Available here.

Updated navigation on the Relevance Modifiers page to show a list of individual modifiers in the sidebar. Available here.
