1. Export Templates
This new feature allows you to have different export subscriptions templates. For each export template, you can control:
- The fields you want to be exported with that template

After adding export templates, you can choose to use the export template you want while exporting subscriptions. The subscriptions data will then be exported using the format/rule defined in the selected export template.

- Added option to allow controlling on what position in the subscription form custom fields will be shown: Above Payment Information (Default), Below Payment Information, Below Payment Method.
- Allow a custom field to depend on payment method. When a payment method is selected, the custom field will only be shown for that payment method only. This is useful, usually, when you use offline payment or custom developed payment plugins and want to allow customers to provide more payment data using custom fields.
