This update includes the following items:

• Digital Delivery module
  Updated the Digital Delivery system's security checks. Downloads associated with orders that are marked as "unauthorized" will no longer be downloaded under any circumstances. Previously, certain setting configurations could cause a conflict that would allow it.
• "No Shipping Method Selected" Checkout Error
  Added a new layer of error logging to track a probable cause of the erroneous "No Shipping Method Selected" error message that some customers receive during the checkout process. The information being logged will provide information required to resolve this issue in an upcoming software update.
• {SHIPPING-OPTIONS-SUBMIT-BUTTON} QuickCode Tag
  Added support for the {SHIPPING-OPTIONS-SUBMIT-BUTTON} QuickCode Tag. For details, refer to the QuickCode Glossary entry for this tag at: http://www.modularmerchant.com/quickcode_details.php?qcid=777
• PayFlow Payment Gateway
  Added support for the PayFlow payment gateway for servers running PHP 5. (In PHP version 5.2, the library of built-in functions related to PayFlow were removed from PHP. PayFlow now uses a standard API, like other payment gateways.)
• PayPal COST Integration
  If possible, the system will attempt to load the standard receipt webpage, instead of the printable web page, when a customer returns from the PayPal website.
• PayPal COST Integration
  The system will attempt to delay the delivery of the customer's email receipt until PayPal has submitted its order data back to the shopping cart. This will help prevent customers receiving an email notification prior to the completion of the transaction on PayPal's website.

Modular Merchant version 3.4.12.1
Released 3/18/2009

This supplemental update includes several items that weren't ready in time for yesterday's update:

• PayPal COST Integration
  Fixed an issue that would prevent the value of some types of coupons from being applied to an order in the store's records for transactions placed using the PayPal COST system.
• "No Shipping Method Selected" Checkout Error
  Added one more new layer of error logging to track a probable cause of the erroneous "No Shipping Method Selected" error message that some customers receive during the checkout process. The information being logged will provide information required to resolve this issue in an upcoming software update.
• PayPal COST Integration
  The email receipts will now include the download information for any downloads associated with products in orders placed using the PayPal COST system. Previously, this information would not be available due to the data returned from the third-party's website.
