Pier #34 – Sessions, SureCart, ZipWP, InstaWP Live & AffiliateWP

Hi there,

Welcome to the 34th issue of The Pier. This week, Adam from SureCart has announced an upcoming upsell feature that will come with conditions on when not to show the upsell offer in cases where the customer has purchased it in the past or if it is in the current order. Performance will also be improved by introducing intelligent caching to the shop page.

In addition, they are working on changing the product to a CPT for developers to make customization very easy. They will also improve the licensing system. Finally, the affiliate platform will soon come with commission overrides and affiliate coupons. SureCart merchants can give this to an affiliate and when someone uses it, the purchase will be attributed to them.

Sneak Peek: ZipWP AI Page Creator

With the upcoming new AI Page Creator, ZipWP will allow you to create fully custom WordPress websites with AI. Zip generates a saveable and publicly shareable sitemap that can be shared with a client for sign-off. Next, you can add any additional pages you want for the WordPress site. Then you map out the inner sections and visually build each page with ZipWP’s never-before-seen AI Page Creator. Watch the sneak peek video for more details!

Coming soon: ZipWP has also announced a new Copy Link feature, and Blueprints, custom WordPress sites you create with your stack of tools.

Here is a selection of the latest and greatest blog posts we published this week on Ahoi.dev. You will also find some interesting industry news, the latest directory listings on The Port, job openings, and deals. Enjoy!
