WP Full Picture update 8.5.0

Release date: 18-03-2025

This is a middle size update with several new, WooCommerce-related features and a number of improvements

New options for tracking variable products

WooCommerce tracking variant views

With this update, you can track more information about the variable products in your store. You can now track when a default variant is viewed and when visitors choose specific variants from the list.

Direct links to proofs of consent

If you save records of consent in our cloud service ConsentsDB.com, then you can now let your visitors see all the consent data with a simple click of a button.

Attention. To enable the new feature, you need to turn on the option “Allow site visitors to view consent data (beta)” in your consent banner settings AND the settings of your website in ConsentsDB.com.

Advanced Order Tracking is now Status-Based Order Tracking

We decided to rename the Advanced Order Tracking function to better describe what it does and to avoid confusing users – some of you thought that AOT was the only option for tracking purchases in WooCommerce.
