Worst Update with 5.7

  • The most recent update to WooCommerce 5.7 is not ideal. While the functionality seems to still be working, you are automatically redirected back to ‘Start Selling’ and set up your online store.

    Silly things like a plugin for taxes and suggested plugins for marketing definitely fall into the paid/partner promotion category rather than being something that is needed.

    We already have our marketing channels set up and have used WooCommerce since 2016. With the upcoming sales period, this update might be the one that gets me to take our four websites over to Shopify who has better Facebook/Instagram, most email marketing platforms and Google integrations while being better for the users as well.

    I would wait until 5.7.1 or later is available to update if you have not updated yet.

      EDIT

    They released an improved update within two days and I can appreciate that, so I have changed my review. People and companies make mistakes, but fixing the mistake in a timely manner is always helpful. Thanks!

    Hi @npmcgrew ,

    The issue with reverting to the initial store setup is not the intended behavior. This is actually an issue which we are actively looking into with the WooCommerce 5.7 update.

    I apologize for any inconvenience/ confusion this might have caused!

    Hi @npmcgrew ,

    Sure! The issue is being looked at internally, however, I’d recommend keeping an eye out for an update that might fix the issue.

    Feel free to get back to us in case you have any additional questions!
