* [Bulk Upload of URL Redirects](/release-notes/december-2025/bulk-upload-of-url-redirects.md) - Upload multiple redirects at once from a CSV file, with the entries validated as part of the upload.
* [Easier Accordions in the Content Editor](/release-notes/december-2025/easier-accordions-in-the-content-editor.md) - Add accordion sections directly in the content editor without writing custom code, including animation style and icons.

## Enhancements

* [Major Performance Improvements to Data Transfer Framework (DTF)](/release-notes/december-2025/major-performance-improvements-to-data-transfer-framework-dtf.md) - Importing large volumes of products and prices is substantially faster, through better batching, faster lookups and improved delta processing.
* [Automatic Product Re-Indexing to Keep Search and Data in Sync](/release-notes/december-2025/automatic-product-re-indexing-to-keep-search-and-data-in-sync.md) - Products are now re-indexed automatically, so the search index no longer falls out of step with your product data.
* [Order Reference Now Visible in Backoffice](/release-notes/december-2025/order-reference-now-visible-in-backoffice.md) - The order reference is now shown on the order screen and in the orders list, and can be searched.
* [Clear EFT Pending Status in Backoffice Orders](/release-notes/december-2025/clear-eft-pending-status-in-backoffice-orders.md) - Orders paid by EFT now show as EFT Pending until the payment is received and allocated.
* [More Accurate Product Ordering by Display Weight](/release-notes/december-2025/more-accurate-product-ordering-by-display-weight.md) - Products are now ordered by their display order weight under default sorting, so your manual ordering is respected.
* [More Reliable Price Sync from Aggregators](/release-notes/december-2025/more-reliable-price-sync-from-aggregators.md) - Fixed price syncs failing when SKU formats differed between the incoming sheet and the catalogue.
* [Easier Menu Closing on Mobile](/release-notes/december-2025/easier-menu-closing-on-mobile.md) - Customers can now tap outside an open menu to close it, rather than having to find a close button.
