fixed problems with $this->_request;

0.4.5 introduced "$this->_request = Mage::app()->getRequest()->getParams();" in the AjaxController;
Replaced in 0.4.6 with individual "Mage::app()->getRequest()->getParam()" calls since the above raised errors.

Fixing some issues that came up on the Magento ECG PHPMD report.

Exit statements should be avoided in controllers (return is sufficient)
Superglobals should not be used

Bugfixes and improvements

Version 0.4.4 Fixes bugs related to multiple swatch attributes on product view pages. On product list pages there's a new template file app/design/frontend/base/default/template/wigman/ajaxswatches/catalog/product/list/swatches.phtml which checks wether a product is configurable and contains the attribute that has been selected as 'product_list_attribute' in admin.

0.4.3 Composer file

Merged pull request from Brandung GmbH & Co. KG containing a composer.json file.

0.4.2

• Fixed image constraint in grid/list mode.
• Added support for custom layered navigation modules (like ManaDev). See point #4 below for detailed info.

0.4.1 bugfix

Bug fix when no store-specific labels are defined.

New features!

0.4.0 Release notes:

• Added attribute sorting by admin position
• Swatches are now respecting the admin setting 'Display Out of Stock Products' option that can be set at System->Configuration->Catalog->Inventory->Stock Options (cataloginventory/options/show_out_of_stock)
• Fixed a major bug preventing the swatches from being cached (many thanks to Lion Web Inc. for contributing to the fix)
• We're now showing a loader images where the swatches are supposed to pop-up after load. Because it could take a second if the swatches haven't been cached yet

0.3.0

Release notes:

• moved code pool to community (requested by Simon Sprankel)
• moved theme files to /base folder since some themes are making the swatches backwards compatible (like Ultimo)
• changed a jQuery selector to match product-list items on a wider scale of themes

Adding Ajax functionality to the product-list pages (categories) to speed up the initial page load

In cases where you have many product-options this can speed up the pageload 10 times!

If you have many colors/swatches in your RWD shop, you need this.

More info on this functionality here, with a test-case: http://e-tailors.nl/ajaxswatches-extension/
