CS-\u0421art Ultimate has everything CS-Cart has, plus an <i>unlimited number of storefronts<\/i> and an <i>ability to manage a store via a mobile app<\/i>. Read about Ultimate\u2019s advantages and prices <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.cs-cart.com\/latest\/history\/442.html\" title=\"\">here<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Mobile Admin App in Multi-Vendor.<\/strong> Mobile Admin App is a new built-in add-on that allows you to manage your marketplace via a mobile device. You just need to install a free app on your iOS or Android device and connect to your admin panel. CS-Cart admin panel is not responsive, so operating a store via a mobile app is a lot more convenient than through a mobile web browser.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Themes display correctly in the stores hosted on Windows.<\/strong> We don\u2019t recommend hosting CS-Cart stores on Windows servers: Linux servers are more secure and convenient to manage. But some of our customers have installed CS-Cart on Windows machines with <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/XAMPP\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">XAMPP<\/a>. The previous CS-Cart version had a design issue on Windows with XAMPP\u2014styles of themes didn\u2019t load in both the admin panel and the storefront. They appeared as simple HTML pages without any graphics. CS-Cart 4.4.2 is free from this issue\u2014themes display fine on Windows servers now.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>LESS to CSS conversion works properly in the Bright theme.<\/strong> When editing a theme via the built-in Theme Editor, you can convert theme styles from the LESS to the CSS format. After the conversion, you get a compiled CSS file, which you can edit to change the appearance of the theme. In the previous version, LESS to CSS conversion in the Bright theme resulted in an error. As a result, theme styles were disabled and you couldn\u2019t switch back to LESS. Since Theme Editor works with LESS only, you couldn\u2019t use it. In CS-Cart 4.4.2, we\u2019ve fixed this bug.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Templates of add-ons override default theme templates correctly.<\/strong> In CS-Cart, an add-on can replace some templates in your theme with its own templates. This is called \u201ca template override\u201d. In the previous CS-Cart version, add-ons couldn\u2019t override the <i>product list template<\/i> of a default theme. We\u2019ve fixed this in CS-Cart 4.4.2.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out other changes and fixes in the <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.cs-cart.com\/latest\/history\/442.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">changelog<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id='how-to-get-version-4-4-2'  id=\"boomdevs_2\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Get Version 4.4.2?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Get the new version is the usual way:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>If your upgrade subscription is still active, check the available upgrade on the <strong>Administration \u2192 Upgrade center<\/strong> page in your admin panel.
