Hi

Please can you let us know what your expected release schedule is for OsCommerce 4? We keep seeing posts for more Demo zoom's but it would be great to hands on some real code.

Thanks and Best Wishes

Mark

Hey Mark,

According to the following link, osCv4 is due to be released at some point in the summer of 2021.

The summer of 2021 ends on September 22nd,.. according to this link.

However, considering the time involved in completely rewriting a cart software and then testing it to get most of the bugs out, I would not be surprised to see this software release date pushed back into the fall of this year.

I expect that the initial release will likely be buggy and missing some key features. The following releases (4.1, and 4.2) will be much better and more stable.

Much like the other folks here, I too would like to see a better level of communication from the new osC ownership. Though I am not pressed for the new version's release and don't expect it to be any sort of revolutionary software that will magically propel osCommerce into the ranks of a top-rated cart software.

On a side note, your post is not directed at the new ownership of osC. Without addressing the owner/site-admin, you are simply tossing a message in a bottle into the ocean and hoping that the new owner, Vadym, somehow finds it.

Someone please correct me if I am wrong, but hasn't summer passed?  I don't know about other locations but with our temperatures here in the 30's and 40's ... I dare say that even fall has come and gone 🤣
