2025.04.4 Release Notes

New Features

  • Store Locator Usage Analytics (GA4 Integration)

    • Custom Google Analytics 4 (GA4) events are now tracked for user engagement across the store locator.

    • Events include map activity, dealer clicks, search actions, and more.

    • Implementation details available here: Store Locator GA4 Custom Events

Enhancements

  • Store Pin Interaction

    • Clicking on a store's pin now:

      • Scrolls to and highlights the store in the list

      • Displays store details in a side panel (on desktop) for improved clarity and use of available screen space

    • This replaces the older behavior that redirected users away from the locator, resulting in a more seamless browsing experience.

  • Map-Based Auto Search

    • As users pan or zoom the map, the locator will now automatically update search results to reflect the current visible area—no button press needed.

    • This creates a more fluid and dynamic location exploration experience.

  • Search Behavior Customization

    • Removed the redundant zip code input field.

    • Also added settings for default expansion/collapse state of the advanced search panel and default map zoom setting.


Visual Update

  • BFG Admin UI Refresh

    • A branding and color scheme update has been applied to the BFG admin pages, aligning with new color scheme.
