Hi there

Thank you for your continued support and patience as we get up and running with Perch.

We have been monitoring the online forum and social channels but I'm sure you will understand it has not been possible to address every question. We will continue to post company updates to the forum and our support team will start to engage in the coming weeks.

Perch has had a long and successful history under its previous ownership and I believe Drew and Rachel were committed to ensuring its future and with the sale to ourselves to prevent it suffering from its own success.

I’ve always been honest in saying we have a lot of work to do and appreciate all the feedback we get whether good or not so good. We are working hard behind the scenes to deliver v4 and in the meantime release certain version updates that were promised previously. In this regard I am confident we are making good progress towards an interim release of v3.2 as a demonstration of goodwill to the community.   

You have my reassurance Perch is a safe, active and viable product for your projects.

Kind regards and thank you again.

George

Thank you George. This is really all I need, just a bit of reassurance is all. I understand that there must be a lot of work to do but an update every now and then will give the community a bit more confidence in the product I feel.

One thing I would suggest, which is perhaps more of a long-term task, is to produce a set of video guides for each addon, especially Perch Shop. The documentation is pretty good and I've been able to follow along and get set up with my first project using Perch Shop, but a video guide similar to the set of videos for the Blog would have been super useful.

Thanks again for the update and I look forward to v3.2 and Perch 4

Hi. I'm new here but have been using Perch for a few years now, and I'm building my first site using Perch Shop.

On my product page I'm displaying the brand image associated with the product using the code below:

This does display the brand image, but doesn't take any notice of the width attribute. I'm using the default brand template to add my brands to the CMS, and outputting a list of brands using perch_shop_brands and the code below is fine, it displays the image at the scaled size as you would expect.

I suspect this is because the type of field above isn't "image", but being within the product template and changing it from "shop_brand" to "image" just sets the image src to "1".

Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong, or if there's a way around this?
