Hi WooCommerce store owners, the 2.1 Plugin update is a major Plugin update with UI changes to the WooCommerce > Store Export screen and fixes affecting the Product and Order export types. We’ve added support for WooCommerce EU VAT Assistant and WooCommerce Custom Fields as well as a set of new Order and Order Items export fields.

New UI

The biggest change to the UI is the new Scheduled Exports tab within WooCommerce > Store Export, this has given us more room to show Scheduled Export column details and leave the Settings tab as the go to place for global Plugin settings.

There is a new notices that appears where we detect an incorrect /tmp path which can impact our generation of XLS, XLSX file types which includes details about the problem and how to resolve this.

Note: I’ll upload screenshots here of the new UI tomorrow morning and update the screenshots on the Plugin detail page too. 🙂

• Order Shipping excl. Tax
