Zen Cart announced the release of version 1.5.7b today. For those using version 1.5.7a, this is a minor update which can easily be done in place. It includes:
- All known bugfixes and security fixes.
- Security patch for v157/v157a.
- Order weight correctly tracked when orders are placed.
- Prevent blank-screen failures if too-many-characters are entered when creating customer accounts.
For those on 1.5.6 or earlier, this is a good reminder that updates are a necessary part of running a Zen Cart website. Upgrades should be part of your budget. Newer versions contain a long list of improvements, bug fixes and security patches. Read three reasons why upgrades are necessary and the advantages of using PHP 7.
While it can be said you don’t need to do every upgrade that comes out, it is true that the longer you go between upgrades the more difficult and expensive they become.
