Main Features

Current version

The current 2.4.0 version has been focused on compatibility with Magento 2.4.6:

Some functionnalities example:

• Store Locator :

  This feature allows you to create and manage your shops in Magento's back-office. The module comes by default with several pre-configured attributes such as Shop Address, GPS coordinates, Opening Hours, etc...

  Once you have created all your shops, your customers will be able to navigate through them in the Front-Office on a map.

Each of your stores has also a Shop detail page and eventually a Contact Shop page if you enable this option on the store.

Your customer will be able to choose his favorite shop and this will keep it during all his navigation through your website.

• Store Offers:

  This features let you create specific offers for a given product and a given shop: you'll be able to define the price and/or the availability for a product in each shop.

You will be able to enable an option to filter the navigation of the customer to the products available in his favorite shop:

The customer will even have the possibility to see product's availability in the other shops on the product detail page:

• In Store delivery:

  This feature allow the customer to choose between stores for the shipping address of his order.

This is handled during checkout via a Store chooser in a popin.

And more to come!

The next versions that will be coming will include the following features:

• Shops in autocomplete:

  We plan to add the shops to the autocomplete box results for faster access.

• And many more!

  We will announce and integrate more features to the roadmap soon.
