Forge theme changelog

All notable changes to Forge theme (kv_theme_forge) are documented here. The format follows Keep a Changelog and the project uses Semantic Versioning.

  • Demo content: trade SKUs are stored as the real product codes (the cart, checkout and invoices show them too), and the demo quantity discounts and taxes come from the theme’s demo content instead of a separate import hook.
  • Built on the Kavio theme kit 1.1.2 (demo content: visible product codes, optional quantity discounts and taxes for demo products).
  • Forge theme for CS-Cart and Multi-Vendor 4.17.2 - 4.21.x: trade counter home (hazard-stripe hero with stat cells next to the quick order pad), department plates block template, list-rows block template with a row cards option, trade account band, clearance row cards, service plates and brand grid.
  • Quick order pad: SKU lookup with suggestions (storefront search endpoint), tier price per line, all lines into the cart with the core bulk add, popular SKU chips; CSV upload and reorder of the last order for signed-in customers (loaded client-side, FPC-safe).
  • “List rows” product list view as the default on category, search and vendor pages: SKU, rating, spec chips, stock light, 1+ / 5+ / 10+ price breaks from CS-Cart quantity discounts, prices excluding and including tax, quantity stepper and Add.
  • Excluding/including tax switch from CS-Cart’s tax calculation (choice kept in the browser).
  • Product pages: brand line, codes strip (SKU, MPN, EAN), key points, spec plate on the image, buy box with the full quantity-discount table, stock line, branch stock (Warehouses add-on), dispatch note block and a quote bar (B2B Quote Request add-on or the contact form).
  • Four styles: Hi-Vis, Workshop, Signal, Steel. Barlow Condensed + Barlow, self-hosted (SIL OFL).
  • Demo content on activation: the Ironline Supply Co. catalogue (9 departments, 43 products with generated illustrations, SKUs, spec features, quantity discounts and reviews, blog posts, menu; on Multi-Vendor one demo shop).
  • Kavio theme kit 1.1: mega menu with “More”, sticky header, mobile bottom bar (with Quick order), sticky buy bar, swipe gallery, filter sheet, motion; domain-bound licence gate with the standard Responsive look as the off state; self-healing upgrades.
