Quote:About v1.3.8

Zen Cart v1.3.8 is officially PayPal-Certified for PayPal Website Payments Pro and PayPal Express Checkout

Features Added in v1.3.8:

* PayPal Website Payments Pro added, for US and UK merchants.
* NEW: Combine Shopping Cart Contents .... If customer logs in and had items in their saved shopping cart, they are now taken to their cart and shown a message alerting them to the fact that those items have been merged with their new cart. This warning can be disabled via switch in admin: Admin->Configuration->Stock->Show Notice of Combining Shopping Cart on Login
* Sideboxes for New/Featured/Special can now contain more than 1 product. Also, the randomizing of the selected products has been improved. The number of items to be shown can be set in Admin->Configuration->Maximum Values
* Authorize.net SIM module ... MD5 support was added, meaning that you can set an MD5 validation key in your Authorize.net account and in the module, making sure that the communications are double-validated before payment is accepted. Prevents spoofing.
* Authorize.net eCheck module added . .. If you have an account with Authorize.net and wish to offer eCheck payment options, the built-in module will handle this for you.
* USPS module updated ... USPS has made some changes in the last 6 months, some announced, some not. The module has been updated to accommodate these changes. You will need to Remove and re-Install the module in Admin->Modules->Shipping in order to make this work properly. (Write down your settings first, for easier re-configuration!)
