Changelog
v1.5April 2026
- Added per-product daily capacity — cap how many of a given product or variant can be booked per day so the kitchen is never over-committed (Pro plan).
- Added shared capacity pools — link multiple products to a single daily cap when they compete for the same oven, dough, or prep station (Pro plan).
- Added per-variant availability — allowed dates, lead times, and daily caps can now differ between variants of the same product, with overrides falling back to the product default (Plus plan).
- Added freshness & shelf life — set shelf life in days or hours and a best-by date is attached to every order and calendar event. Free plan shows a read-only "baked fresh on …" line; authoring is on the Plus plan.
- Added season windows — restrict products to recurring (e.g. 1 March to 15 April every year) or one-off date ranges so seasonal items only sell at the right time of year (Plus plan).
- Added production prep sheet — a printable daily prep list grouped by kitchen station, annotated with allergens and best-by dates, with today / tomorrow / next-week shortcuts (Pro plan).
- Added prep-start calendar events — a separate calendar entry lands a configurable number of days before fulfilment so prep work is scheduled, not just dispatch (Pro plan).
- Added Shopify inventory bridge — opt in per product to decrement Shopify stock when a dated order arrives, and refunds or cancellations restore the stock and re-open the slot automatically (Pro plan).
- The storefront date picker now hides itself when every variant of a product is sold out on Shopify, so customers can't pick a date for something that isn't available (all plans).
- Added minute-level prep time and per-weekday cut-off tables for shops whose schedules change day-to-day (Plus plan).
v1.4April 2026
- Added checkout delivery filtering — checkout now only shows the delivery option the customer chose on the cart. Pickup, local delivery, and postal are hidden based on the chosen method, so customers can't accidentally pay for postage on a collection order or pick collection on a delivery cart.
- The checkout filter installs automatically the first time you open the Delivery page — no manual setup, no separate delivery customization to create in Shopify admin.
- The checkout filter self-repairs on app upgrade — if Shopify gets out of sync, opening the Delivery page deletes the stale customization and reinstalls a working one.
- Added clear admin banners that surface the exact reason when the checkout filter can't be installed (Shopify scope issue, plan restriction, mutation failure, etc.) so you see what's wrong and how to fix it rather than a silent broken checkout.
- Delivery routing pickup and local-delivery guidance banners now remind you products must be marked as physical and have inventory at the location for Shopify's native options to appear at checkout.
- Checkout filtering is available on the Plus and Pro plans.
v1.3March 2026
- Added Google Calendar OAuth sync — new orders are pushed automatically as calendar events.
- Added Microsoft Outlook OAuth sync via Microsoft Graph API.
- Added ICS feed URL for subscribing from any calendar app (Apple Calendar, Fantastical, etc.).
- Added time slots — offer morning, afternoon, or custom windows within a collection or delivery day.
- Added per-slot order limits to cap how many orders can be taken per time slot.
- Calendar Sync and time-slot features are available on the Pro plan.
v1.2January 2026
- Added per-product date rules — configure allowed dates, allowed weekdays, and fulfilment type independently for each product (Pro plan).
- Added fixed-date mode — pin a product to a single date that is pre-selected for customers, with no choice required.
- Added recurring dispatch day — set a product to always dispatch on a specific weekday (e.g. every Thursday).
- Added mixed-basket support — customers can add products with different date rules to the same cart, with each item showing its own fulfilment date.
- Per-product rules are available on the Pro plan.
v1.1November 2025
- Added local delivery and postal as distinct fulfilment methods alongside collection, each with its own schedule.
- Added delivery pricing — set a flat charge for local delivery and postal, with configurable free-delivery thresholds.
- Added next-day dispatch option with an optional surcharge.
- Added minimum order value — require customers to reach a cart total before a date can be selected.
- Added daily order cut-off time — orders placed after the configured time are automatically pushed to the next available day.
- Delivery pricing and cut-off settings are available on the Plus and Pro plans.
v1.0October 2025
- Initial launch of Blackout Dates on the Shopify App Store.
- Store-wide blackout dates — block specific calendar dates for all orders.
- Recurring weekday blocking — block one or more days every week (e.g. all Sundays).
- Preparation lead time — prevent customers from selecting dates sooner than a configurable minimum.
- Order note integration — selected dates are stored as the order note and can be surfaced in Shopify's order confirmation email.
- Free plan available with up to 5 blackout dates.
