minimal theme – now with social media options
We’ve just updated the minimal ecommerce theme in your theme gallery to include some social media options. Your visitors can now post products in your online store to Twitter, facebook, del.ic.io.us, digg, Technorati, blogger.com, StumbleUpon, and can even click a link to send a quick email to a friend.
That’s not it though…. new options have been added to customise your footer with links to your facebook page, twitter page, your blog’s RSS feed, and a link to your contact form.
To see the changes, head on over to the demo store. If you want to add these changes to your store you’ll need to first make a backup of your existing theme, apply the new theme, and then update it with whatever customisations you’ve made in the theme editor. If you want us to do this for you, there will be a one-off fee of $70AUD.
There will also be updates to some of our existing ecommerce themes in the coming months… so if you’re not using the minimal theme in your store, you shouldn’t miss out on the new goodies!

Get Order Notifications when you’re on the move
With more and more people on the move and accessing their Spiffy Stores Toolbox from mobile devices, we’ve added a quick and simple way for you to get timely updates when your online store gets new orders.
Browse to your “Overview of your orders” page in your Spiffy Store Toolbox and you’ll now see an additional entry in the sidebar which includes a data feed link to all your most recent orders.
The new data feed link is encrypted and password protected so you can be sure that your online stores’ customers’ data is safe and secure.
There is more information available on this new feature in our Knowledge Base at https://www.spiffystores.com.au/kb/Recent_Orders_Data_Feed.
You can use this link on your mobile device to find out when new orders have been placed in your online store rather than having to monitor your email for the email notifications you normally receive.
