WordPress plugin release notes

31 January 2025

• For V1 API users, the stockList and partList properties have been removed from the response. Please use the stock and parts properties instead.

17 December 2024

• In the PTX file, when no edge banding is present in a part, a blank field will be used rather than the string ‘N’ - this was causing issues when importing into Magi-Cut.

9 November 2024

• Added ‘stackingMode’ to saw options, which determines how stock will be stacked.

4 November 2024

• Use of the ‘bandingType’ property within each part has been deprecated. Please use the ‘banding’ attribute instead, which can now accept a boolean or a string value.
• New ‘finish’ atttibute added to parts. This can be used to specify the finish of a part, for example spray paint. Metadata now includes totalFinishArea and finishAreaByType properties to show the total area of parts with a finish applied split by finish type. Each stock also contains a finishArea property within ‘analysis’.

19 February 2024

• Experimental feature userGroups has been updated. Now uses id and ‘direction’ rather than id and coordinates. This is a breaking change and will require updates to your code if you were using this feature.

5 February 2024

• Roll length in metadata is now total roll length - the key is now ‘totalRollLength’
• Stacked cut length and total cuts is now available in metadata and stock analysis
• Beam saw calculations now need a stack height to be set

11 December 2023

• Better handing of exports & label files - the file url is now returned in the response body.
• Files in zip format have new filenames - please use the response url.
• Added rollLength to the metadata object in the response.

25 October 2023

• Revamp to guillotine and efficiency algorithms.
• Guillotine now supports a second phase of optimization to allow left over parts to be squeezed into offcut positions.
• More information now contained in ‘metadata’ in the API response.
• Version 2 of the WooCommerce plugin released - greatly improved setup experience and more pricing models.

2 July 2023

The documentation has been updated to reflect this update.

3 July 2022

As part of a major infrastructure upgrade to provide better reliability, more capacity and more processing power, the plans have been updated.

• The original three-tiered plans are now retired. These are treated as legacy plans which will continue to work. Migration to the new monthly plan is recommended.
• All plans are now based on your requirements and billed monthly. This allows much more fine-grained control over every option.
• New configurable values include the number of calls per minute.

A new option has been added to the API

• The ‘autoAdd’ option for stock can now be used for multiple stock items. Previously this was only allowed with a single stock item.

The documentation has been updated to reflect this update.

4 Oct 2022

• In the results, the length of each banding type is returned in the ‘metadata’ object
