New Control Panel Launched!

That's right - it's been a long time coming but it's finally here: We have just launched the brand new version of the control panel! Click here to go there now!

The old control panel had grown so much since we launched it - it was bursting at the seams! In the new version, we've tried to compress each section and tool into a logical menu featuring just 5 main sections: Manage, Design, Ecommerce, Marketing and Import/Export.

We also wanted to launch the new control panel with plenty of new features, rather than simply redesigning it, and that's exactly what we've done!

We're really proud of it, and we sincerely hope you like it as much as we do. It should make managing your store even easier, and we can't wait to hear what you think!

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!

It's been a while since we last updated our News, but don't worry - that doesn't mean we haven't been doing anything! We've started work on a Brand New Control Panel. It may take quite some time before it's finished, but we're sure you'll love it when it finally launches.

We've got lots more planned for the rest of the year so be sure to check back often for updates.
