NKS Changelog

Platform update — Aug 4, 2026

New

• Help center learning paths with a lesson player and richer article cards.
• Knowledge base visual editor with images, video, tip callouts, and HTML/Markdown import.
• Draft and rewrite knowledge base articles with AI (admin-configured providers).
• Help article explaining how NKS POS app, OTA, and channel version numbers work.

Fixes

• Catalog copy keeps combo steps, taxes, prices, menu groups, and related fields correctly when cloning between stores.
• Published help articles with designed HTML cards render correctly on the public help site.
• Knowledge base editor mode toggles and article list updates behave correctly after save.

In the next version of POS:

New

• When copying a recipe's ingredient order to the other sizes, the button now names the size it is copying from.

Fixes

• Modifier rules that hide options now work on terminals set up from a copied menu. Before this, an order could reach a screen with nothing on it and then refuse to take payment.
• The modifier rule editor now shows the options a rule already hides. They appeared unticked, so saving the modifier quietly cleared the rule.
• The button for copying a recipe's ingredient order now says why it is unavailable instead of being greyed out with no reason, and no longer claims a size is empty when it has shared ingredients.

In the next version of POS:

New

• A modifier can now be set to hide others when it is chosen, so a cold sandwich stops offering grilled toppings.
• A recipe's ingredient order can now be copied from one size to all the other sizes.

Fixes

• Split Pay now opens already divided between the guests on the order, with their names filled in, instead of asking for them again.
• Items can now be dragged onto guests that are off the edge of the screen.

In the next version of POS:

New

• Reports now show the store name in the header.

Fixes

• Combo bundles can be added to a regular menu again, not just bundle-flow screens.
• Combo meals now show the right quantity on the full order display. A combo added 25 times was showing 1.
• Combo meals no longer stop on a step that has only one option. They finish on their own.
• Reporting an issue now uses the keyboard built into the screen instead of the Windows one.
• Typing an exact color code now applies it when you press Enter.
• An update no longer undoes itself when the terminal is still starting up.

fix(ota): report the bundle being served, not the last confirmed one

In the next version of POS: - Loyalty button is shown on the cart screen - Gift card is implemented - Update button moved to the top - Missing rights implemented for flow designer - Printer settings per product/modifer implemented - 200+ e2e tests added - Added Manager Override rule to quick actions - Saving a modifier group from the breadcrumb now returns you to the product correctly, and closing the product takes you back to the product list instead of reopening the modifier group. - Spaces are no longer dropped while typing names for modifier groups and smart coupons. - Coupons now open inside the discount panel instead of a separate popup, so the cart stays visible. - Coupons and discounts that the order does not qualify for are hidden instead of being offered and then rejected. - Terminals left running now install pending updates at end of day and at the start of the business day. - Fixed an issue where installing an update could leave the app unable to start. This one requires the next full installer, not a web update. - Sync status now confirms when the terminal has connected to the cloud. - Optional toppings are more badge by 1 in modifierview

Menu Setup fixes for the menu build. Pages that were cut off with no scrollbar now scroll. Editing an ingredient and saving keeps your place in the list and highlights the row you just saved, so a bulk cleanup pass does not lose its position. Migrated ingredient categories no longer show raw ids. Order entry now blocks checkout on any incomplete line in the cart, not just the open one, and includes the suggestive selling work.

Error reporting is fixed. Crash and error reports were being blocked before they ever left the terminal, so none of them reached us and we were blind to problems in the field. This release unblocks them, including session replay.

Release channels are now end to end. A release can be published to a single channel (dev, beta or production), and a tested build can be promoted from one channel to the next without rebuilding, so what reaches production is exactly what was tested. A store gets only the release assigned to its channel.

Also in this build: the installer now pulls the right version for the store channel instead of the old feed, and the remote support agent retries within a minute instead of an hour when a report fails, so a freshly installed terminal shows up right away.

First channel-resolved release (0.3.5). Seeds dev/beta/production channel feeds + install links. No fleet migration.

Report studio renderer and cash-drawer integration. Idle auto-logout, order combining, and order-entry / menu-setup fixes.

Fixes the update prompt reappearing after an update was already installed. Updates now apply on the first tap.

Web-order auto-print (printed/failed report) + order-entry fixes

Signed installer; fixes terminals being forced to re-activate after an update.

0.2.9: single nks-install.ps1 provisioner (installs app + RustDesk + the NKSRemoteAgent service); report-first agent password rotation

v0.2.8: remote-support agent (report-first password rotation), retire in-app bridge. Windows builds unsigned until Azure Trusted Signing is configured.

Activation, remote-support, and flow-designer improvements.

0.2.6 — enable remote support agent

0.2.5 — auto-update verification

v0.2.4 - AWS auto-update verification (update from 0.2.3)

First AWS cutover test build (v0.2.3) — install + auto-update verification

Fix release build: read remote support API base via dynamic public env (dormant when unset).

0.1.7 — fix sync endpoint (unified_app_endpoint); pulls full data set

0.1.6 — full cloud data sync; updater re-keyed (existing devices need one-time manual reinstall)
