Changelog

Product updates for Sellerlane, newest first. This page is the canonical log of what’s shipped.

How entries work

Each release is grouped under a ## Month Year heading. Inside it, individual changes are tagged so you can scan quickly:

  • Added — a brand-new capability.
  • Improved — an existing capability got better.
  • Fixed — a bug or rough edge resolved.

New releases are added to the top, so the most recent work is always first.

July 2026

Added — B2B wholesale

Sell to companies from the same store. Company accounts hold locations, contacts, and invited buyers; catalogs assigned to a company or location control product and collection availability plus contextual prices, quantity rules, and volume breaks. Locations pay now, on Net 7–90 terms, or due on fulfillment, with a credit limit capping the outstanding balance. Checkout can collect an optional or required PO number, and orders can auto-submit or route to merchant draft review. Company locations can be marked tax-exempt, company orders resolve through the ordinary storefront shipping engine, and an existing customer’s order history can be associated with their company location without changing the source orders. Retail is unaffected: personal discounts and loyalty never apply to company purchases. See the B2B wholesale guide, the B2B wholesale overview, and the commerce compatibility contract for exact scope.

Improved — Audited Liquid Drop and theme-author contract

The Liquid reference now mirrors all 81 audited declarations in the buyer engine’s sealed Drop inventory across 74 public object pages and includes Shopify-style, copyable examples for products, variants, collections, customers, requests, metafields, metaobjects, availability, quantity rules, price breaks, and Sellerlane event data. New guides document the exact buyer-visible data boundary, storefront filter and tag behavior, and all supported form tag workflows, including OTP accounts and typed Sellerlane product forms.

The expanded dynamic sources reference now documents exact expression grammar and type compatibility, metafield .value paths, metaobject list projections, limits, stale-preview recovery, and the backend ownership split: seller persistence/catalog definitions versus the buyer preview’s snapshot-pinned runtime scope graph.

Documentation checks now compare public object-property tables with the audited buyer-engine inventory, require executable-looking examples on the high-risk pages, and enforce meeting_status as the only public spelling before the production build. Built-route link, metadata, heading, image, and diagram checks run immediately after generation, so either class of failure blocks the build.

Added — Multi-sale POS billing and buyer-device payments

Registers can keep up to ten isolated sale tabs open, name them for waiting customers, and move between them without merging carts, discounts, stock holds, loyalty state, or payment attempts. POS gateway checkout supports provider-hosted pages, Sellerlane scan-to-open QR, and payment links queued by configured SMS or email for Razorpay, PayU, and Cashfree. See POS billing & payments.

Improved — End-to-end order and rewards guide

Published the exact paid/open fulfillment gate, COD cancellation/refund rules, address matrix, split-location inventory flow, durable self-service decisions, event and download recovery, and loyalty/referral/review clawbacks with diagrams and worked examples. See Order & rewards lifecycle.

Added — Exact Shopify theme compatibility contract

Published a single normative reference for Sellerlane’s Shopify-style theme surface: strict Liquid validation, current theme limits, forms and typed product data, 250/25,000 pagination, storefront filter parameter grammar, published locale URLs, compiled publishing, stylesheet subsetting, Section Rendering API responses, standard storefront events/actions, preview security, consent, SEO, and private S3/R2 object policy.

The reference also names every deliberate difference instead of implying blanket parity. Shopify apps/app blocks, Markets, B2B, selling plans, deprecated Liquid, password account forms, arbitrary cart properties/attributes, and standard product attribute filters (filter.v.t.shopify.*) remain outside the portable surface. Product and variant metafield facets are supported through trusted enabled definitions. See Shopify theme compatibility.
