Hey Dappers!
DAP v4.7.2 / LiveLinks v1.11.2 (BETA) is now available for download!
We are still calling this a BETA release as it has fixes for a few minor 4.7.1 issues. And it also includes much better WooCommerce=>DAP integration.
We will give it about 3-4 days, and if there are no other changes, we will make it (4.7.2) FINAL.
Key Items in this release:
WooCommerce=>DAP integration
1) Reverse sync between WC=>DAP
If buyers create an account during the WooCommerce (WC) checkout process, the account will get created in WordPress first, but it will also be sync’d to DAP. The users will have the same username/password in DAP and in WP. If they log in to DAP, they will get auto-logged-in to WP.

2) Map Address Fields
Address fields entered in WC during checkout will be mapped to the user’s DAP profile.
3) Physical Products
Added a new Configuration option to prevent DAP from processing physical products sold via WC.
If it’s a physical product that is NOT DOWNLOADABLE (is_virtual=NO and is_downloadable=NO in WC product setting), and if you do not want DAP to process it, ftp to your site, find dap-config.php file in the “dap” folder and add this to the dap-config.php file:
define(‘WC_IGNORE_PHYSICAL_PRODUCT’,’Y’);
If “is_downloadable” is true in your WC product setting, DAP will automatically add user to DAP.
Minor bug fixes
1) DAP Doctor fix to allow the login check to work correctly even if WP is installed in a subfolder.
2) Fix to the Paypal script to prevent an IPN Error.
We look forward to making this release final quickly as we have some really cool things lined up for the next release (Hint: DAP Admin UI updates, much better Manage Users -> Search/Sort features, conditional content/course dripping, a new elegant/responsive template for ‘member-links’ page, an awesome new checkout page (mobile-friendly template) for DAP Shopping Cart etc 🙂 ).
We will start our drip series for these new features in a few weeks.
BTW, if you have not checked out our new DAP Easy Installer plugin, you might want to give it a try. It makes new DAP Installations as well as DAP Upgrades really simple and effortless. No more FTP required.
As always, feel free to leave your questions and comments below!
And we would absolutely love it if you would “like” or “share” this post.
Cheers!
