Rapido 3.0

Rapido 3.0 has been released with the following headline features:

• Tabs in website settings
  • ​Website settings are now divided into 6 different tabs: Layout, Product list, Product page, Ecommerce, Settings and Custom. This will give a better overview over the different settings for the different areas, when making configurations on the site. This will not only give a better overview but a faster way to work with the website settings.
  • (We will work on a converter that can map the old website settings from Rapido 2.1  to Rapido 3.0)
• Notification overlays - Set up one or more pop ups on a page, to notify the user of e.g. an event, information, newsletter sign up, in order to create more leads. It is possible to define the design and action.
• Videoes on the Product/detail page - It is now possible to add one or more video links on the product page, where the videos will get its own section, the videos can give your product more infomation e.g. instructions or commercial vidoes of the product.
