Settings

Setting Default What it does
Enable gift options at checkout On Shows the This order is a gift box at checkout. Off: no gift options and no wrap fee for new orders; existing orders keep their gift data.
Gift wrap is chosen Per order Per order: one wrap for the whole package (on Multi-Vendor one per vendor package), price charged once. Per product: a wrap for single products, price charged per unit. Per package and per product: both.
Gift message On The message field with a character counter.
Maximum message length (characters) 250 20 – 1000.
Ask for the sender and recipient names On The From and To fields.
Offer “Send to someone else” On A checkbox with a hint: the recipient’s address goes into the shipping address, the customer’s own address into the billing address. Ticking it switches on the checkout’s “billing address is different” option.
Show “Gift wrapping available” on product pages On A small note under the product price when at least one wrap is offered for the product.
Customers can print the gift receipt from their order page On Adds Print gift receipt to the customer’s order page. Admins and vendors can always print it.
Hide prices in the shipment e-mail of gift orders On Removes all price data from the shipment notification of gift orders, so even a customised template prints no prices.

Position, Status Order at checkout; disabled wraps are hidden from customers but stay on existing orders.

Editing a gift wrap

Deleting a wrap does not change existing orders: each order keeps its own copy of the wrap name and price.

In CS-Cart Ultimate, wraps created while a storefront is selected belong to that storefront; wraps created for All storefronts are offered everywhere.

The license status is shown in a License card at the top of the add-on page, above the tabs, so you see it on every tab. The License tab holds the key itself. The key is stored once for the whole installation.

License card on the add-on page: status, licensed domain, storefronts, last and next check, with Change license key, Check now and Manage license

The License card shows:

  • the status in color: green when valid, blue for a development host or the 14-day period before a key is required (with the days left), amber when the license server could not be reached (with the days left) or a Marketplace number is still being verified, red when the add-on is switched off;
  • in plain words what the status means and, when the add-on is (or will be) switched off, what stops: customers can no longer choose gift wrap or write a gift message at checkout, and no wrap fee is added; orders already placed keep their gift details, gift receipts and totals;
  • the licensed domain, every storefront with its result (covered, development host, not covered), the end of the updates and support period, the last and the next check, and the key in use (masked);
  • the actions Enter license key / Change license key, Check now, Manage license and, without a valid license, Buy a license.

In Add-ons → Manage add-ons the add-on’s row shows a small license badge next to its name. The Gift wrap options page shows the status as a small chip.
