New in 8.3.0 – A stronger store today, an AI-ready foundation for tomorrow Booster 8.3.0 is a reliability-and-readiness release designed to keep everyday store operations dependable as WooCommerce evolves: More confidence around orders and refunds: hardened order handling supports both HPOS and legacy storage, including partial refunds, scheduled order work, and download-permission regeneration. More consistent payment choices at checkout: product/category gateway rules now use the same supported server logic in Checkout Blocks and Classic Checkout, helping configured payment methods stay predictable during cart updates. Less repeated work: shared request-level Store API detection avoids re-checking the same request context while leaving your saved settings and storefront behavior unchanged. A safer path toward AI-assisted store operations: on WordPress 6.9 and later, authorized store managers can securely read concise summaries of available Booster modules, compatibility boundaries, and Booster-owned background jobs through three new WordPress abilities. What the AI-ready foundation means: this is the first infrastructure layer for future Booster experiences such as guided store diagnostics, clearer operational summaries, and safer connections to AI and automation tools. It is intentionally read-only and permission-protected. Booster 8.3.0 does not add a chatbot, connect to an AI provider, send store data to AI services, expose customer or order records, or let an integration change store settings. Older WordPress versions continue normally without loading this integration. Supercharge WooCommerce with powerful PDF Invoices, smart Dynamic Pricing, visual Product Variation Swatches, global Multi-Currency support, a flexible Checkout Field Editor, versatile Product Addons, and over 100+ more essential tools – all in one plugin! Booster offers a comprehensive suite, replacing dozens of individual extensions without the bloat. Activate only the modules you need, keeping your store fast, lean, and feature-rich. Many core features are completely free. Trusted by more than 100,000 WooCommerce stores worldwide — including 40,000+ active installations of the free version on WordPress.org and tens of thousands of Booster Elite customers — Booster for WooCommerce is the #1 all‑in‑one toolkit for your store. Need branded PDF invoices that rival standalone solutions? Automatic multi‑currency with live FX? Advanced dynamic pricing rules and discounts? Or a drag‑and‑drop checkout‑field editor? Booster empowers you with single-click activation for each powerful, speed-optimized module. Why Store‑Owners & Agencies Choose Booster’s Free & Elite Versions Comprehensive Toolkit: One install gives access to 110+ features – stop stacking $79 add‑ons. Zero Coding Needed: Clean UI, granular toggles, ready in minutes for everyone. Modular & Performant: Disabled modules never load, ensuring your site stays fast. (We encourage you to check out performance benchmarks on Booster.io!) Reliable & Supported: Regular updates & < 24 hr WordPress.org support forum replies. New in 8.2.0 – Faster pricing and clearer checkout confidence Booster now does less repeated work in six common WooCommerce hot paths, without changing your saved pricing rules: Role-based prices: identical price decisions are reused during the current page or cart request. Variable products: role, formula, and multi-currency context is prepared once and reused while WooCommerce builds variation prices. Order exports: price precision and additional-field settings are normalized once, while large exports continue in bounded batches. Payment recalculation: gateway-fee product context is reused for an unchanged cart and refreshed when products, variations, or quantities change. Product and category rules: pricing and payment conditions share safe request-local taxonomy context instead of repeating the same lookups. Earlier exits: empty prices, scalar currency conversions, unrestricted gateway rules, and irrelevant gateway screens skip work they do not need. Payment-method fees are also more predictable as customers update their cart and choose a gateway. Store managers get a new read-only Booster Status page that explains active Checkout Blocks and HPOS boundaries in plain language and flags settings that still need Classic Checkout. Order exports now process large order sets in smaller batches and reuse WooCommerce order objects under HPOS. Existing Free feature limits remain unchanged; the release improves the capabilities already included in Free. New in 7.4.0 – Guided onboarding for faster wins Spin up common store setups in minutes with 4 new one-click goals (Professional invoices • Boost conversions • Better checkout • Store essentials). A clear 3-step progress bar guides you, and the success screen points you to the next best action—no hunting through settings. It’s fully keyboard accessible and mobile friendly. What the new goals do (free tier): Professional invoices (starter): turns on PDF Invoice generation (invoice only). Boost conversions: enables Product Add-ons (single) and Related Products. Better checkout (basics): enables Checkout Core Fields and More Button Labels. Store essentials: enables Sequential Order Numbers and Product Tabs (single). New in 7.5.0 – Blueprints: real outcomes, faster Skip the guesswork. Blueprints apply a sensible, free-tier setup in one click, then point you to the next best action: Recover Lost Sales: turn on Cart Abandonment (Lite: single email) and send a test; suggested next step—add a 10% coupon. Boost AOV: enable Product Add-ons (single) and tune Related Products to increase basket size. Sell Internationally: prep your store with essentials + checkout basics, then guided steps to add EU/UK shipping, taxes, and payments. What you’ll notice: Quick Setup ⇄ Blueprints switcher in onboarding. A clear Choose → Review → Complete path with Next Steps and deep-link buttons. “Applied” badges and a dedicated Undo that only reverts what was changed.
