Coupon Affiliates – Version 5.4.0 – Creatives Improvements

Version 5.4.0 of Coupon Affiliates for WooCommerce is now available.

This update includes some new features and improvements for the “creatives” module, along with a few other small tweaks and fixes.

New: Creatives – Types (Image, Video, PDF)

Brand new creatives types have been added.

Previously, you could only add images. Now you can now add all of the following types:

• Images
• YouTube Video
• MP4 Video
• PDF
• Colors

New: Creatives – Categories

Custom “categories” have now been added to creatives.

Creatives will be sorted into their own categories when displayed on the affiliate dashboard, to make it more organised, and easier for users to find what they are looking for.

New: Creatives – Brand Colors

“Brand Colors” is one of the new types of creatives that can be added. All colors will be displayed in their own category, and will display slightly differently to other creatives.

The color will be displayed in a box, along with the color code, and a button to copy the color code.

Creatives – Custom Text

The “Creatives Text” option has been updated to the “TinyMCE” editor, so you can add more advanced custom text to the top of the creatives tab.
