ASDESIGNED: Can't turn off "Gift Wrap" option on admin screens after 5.4 update - Gift wrap is defaulted to "on" for all products. Need to batch update to turn this off.

Hi Marcus



The BOGO has another Bug. When the Paid Item includes Accessories/Cross Sells/Up sells then the AdditionalProductAccessories.aspx Will show none (non of the added in items), just the No thank you button.

Thanks

How about Pay Flow Pro. with PayPal processor received the numeric currency code for US but it should be alpha numeric instead?
It's not PayPal express, isn't it?

I don't think so. it sending information via Payflow_dotNET.dll, which is called by BVSoftware.BVC5.Payment.dll
I debugged it and had to stop at BVSoftware.BVC5.Payment.dll because there is no source for this module.

Gift wrapping can be turned off for all products with a batch update. The checkbox in the admin is "Enable gift wrap for all items." Because the gift wrap boolean is set to true in earlier versions of BV all products the checkbox appears to do nothing. What users are expecting is that the checkbox will in fact "disable all gift wrapping" when turned off which is not true.

The image radio button control was not correctly setting the value field on the radio button list. You can grab the "view" control for the imageradiobutton choice from 5.5 when it is released later this week.
