Support / Website is real slow..
« on: July 02, 2014, 05:10:35 PM »
Working on new website here: www.hygienics.com/store. Please visit there and you will see how slow it is.

Now if you just visit www.hygienics.com you will see it is faster. What could it be than causes it to be slow? We are on GoDaddy server.

Our mobile site using AbanteCart is fast all the way and we are on a different host.

Thanks for any and all help

Support / Re: Make Sort By: Use Default As The Main Sort By View
« on: July 02, 2014, 04:54:53 PM »
Hello again. I do have Default as the first option showing for sorting but the items are still not sorted like we want.

For example in a particular category like Antiperspirants we have 8 products. What I did in that category is put in a number in the Sort Number and that is show they should be sorted.

Is this the wrong way to do it? Now an interesting thing is that if I change the sort by from default to another selection and then put back default everything is sorted like it should.

I was also think change the dates on products to the same date and then use the Sort Numbers

Payment Modules / Strange Issue With Paypal Pro API Solution
« on: July 01, 2014, 11:21:14 AM »
Since I launched our mobile site on Jun 19th we have had a total of 20 orders so far. I have setup successfully PayPal and PayPal Pro.

Our plant manager was saying that about 15 of these orders there are no automatic shipping labels created in PayPal. She has to do them manually and if we start to get a lot of orders this will be a big issue to do them all manually.

I investigated further and saw what is happening inside PayPal. For the orders that a label was done automatically it shows in payment type instant. I will assume that is for PayPal standard where they go to PayPal and finish payment.

For the one's that don't have a label created automatically it is always the same payment type: (Website Payments Pro API Solution)

Also see attached file here and you will notice it says no shipping address on file. On the correct orders it does show an address.

What is going on here?

All orders have gone thru and completed. The only issue is no shipping address and thus manual shipping labels have to be created.

I looked at extension and all is well. Is it the consumer not filling something in? Perhaps something can be added to cart to make them aware to fill in the address in the correct sections?

Any help is appreciated..

I am writing this for those that still have this problem. My issue is resolved. I used Firefox as my main browser and I could not import but a few minutes ago I decided to try IE and it worked. So if one browser is giving you a problem try another just in case.

I have IE 11 for Windows 7

Support / problem with import items
« on: June 30, 2014, 08:32:42 AM »
I am using AbanteCart 1.1.9 on a new site. I have setup the database, admin and demo store. Everything is working.

I went ahead and exported to a .csv (comma delimited) the products from the demo store, manipulated the file by changing the values in the appropriate columns with the ones from the products I need to import and saved it.

When I go to import it says Data is empty or corrupted.
Total loaded: 0

I did put in test mode to play it safe

I also have it imported as the same format (comma delimited .csv). For our mobile site I had to import products and it worked

I know this is old topic but if I read correctly if you do an export of existing products and then make some changes, even add a few new items, then import no duplicates are created?

That is fantastic as my last cart system was so dumb in that regard. So basically everything just gets updated and anything new is an addition.

This is great!

Template Support / Re: Can't get my logo to appear
« on: June 26, 2014, 02:45:28 PM »
Here is another change I made for new website. I changed the colors and logo so when we log in no confusion.

See attached file.

« on: June 26, 2014, 01:28:10 PM »
You can if you must, inspect element (using chrome) find the path of logo name and  folder in server, go into cpanel (resources/images/..etc ) and literally replace that file with one named exactly the same name and size wise,(eg 30px - 30px and  f.jpg or whatever) delete and replace, make sure you match the dimensions and name as I believe (in my experience) size specific for the top header and you should be ok...

I was going to say the same thing. I have been working on our mobile site with AbanteCart for a month and half and the easiest way I found was to inspect the elements with the browsers tools or Firebug and it would show me the name and the path to the file. I would then open the file in Photoshop.

Next I would see it's dimensions and create a blank file with the same dimensions and then when I was satisfied with the new graphic I would save exactly with the same name and format and then upload to the server.

I overwrite the existing file (backup original with you wish) and go back to the site and refresh and done deal. To me is easier and much faster.

Also since I plan to install for our company AbanteCart cart on a few sites having the same look Admin gets confusing so at the moment I am actively inspecting elements and will change the colors and logos in each admin so none of us are ever confused. I did this with our existing admin systems and it helped a lot.

Hope this helps and attached is a sample of what I did for Mobile.

Support / Need some advice for new site install
« on: June 26, 2014, 01:20:11 PM »
Hi we have this website: www.hygienics.com

I want to keep the look for the most part if possible but replace the backend Admin and the shopping system with AbanteCart Cart.

#1 Can I keep the theme/look and adapt it to AbanteCart?

#2 I installed the cart to /store directory so not to interfere with what is live now. When I finish can I move what I did in /store out into the root (public_html) part of the site and still have it work?

I have not touched .htaccess but will edit it if needed.

Thanks

Thanks but that wont work as it only allows images and even if it did videos they would only appear once an option is chosen. Would be better if they would appear as a thumbnail by default like the images do. Then you would really have something.

I cant complain though I have been able to add videos with a block for now. Having multiple images and other essentials has been great so far. Perhaps the creators of AbanteCart can consider for a future update having images and videos together if chosen in the area where the images are shown now.

I have high hopes for this system.

Well I tried but it failed. I guess the section where the products are shown for the product you cannot have videos there. It is shame because it would be nice to have the thumbnails of images and video and then have the video show up above like the large images.

Would save space and is a great area for them.

OK I did the changes and the Default Sort is now the principal. I have backed up the original file so that going forward when a new cart update arrives I can make these changes again.

Thanks

Support / Make Sort By: Use Default As The Main Sort By View
« on: June 24, 2014, 05:06:43 PM »
I have been studying another thread and some of the manual to try and make this work but have not been able to figure it out. We have finished sorting all the products in their respective categories by numbers.

This is very important for us as our last system did not allow this. I also would not mind removing some of the options included in Sort By: as I feel they are not relevant for us.

Any advice is appreciated.
