How-to questions / Re: How to combine shipping?
« on: August 06, 2019, 11:04:44 AM »
I added the weight based extension and this seems to have fixed the issue now. I now have 4 products in the cart and just one charge for shipping. Once I receive my scale I might want to get an extension that is pretty accurate. I thought I had ship individually as well but I did not.

Ok so I add 1/4 lb of Beef Jerky to my cart and select priority shipping. If I go back and add another 1/4lb. The shipping doubles to 15$ when I can fit both in 1 small flat rate box.  Essentially saving the shopper money because who wants to pay that much for shipping.

I need to be able to make it so adding up to 1 LB you can select small flat rate box.  Any more and you may need medium...

You see what I am saying... I can link you to the site so you can get an idea when you try to checkout multiple items.

TL:DR

Adding 4 items to cart adds 4 items and 4 shipping charges. When it should be 4 items and 1 shipping charge.


I've looked through the manual couldn't find anything on this.

I recently ordered a shipping scale. I need a new scale anyways. useful for weighing the jerky I sell as well as shipping.

Shipping has always been an issue with these carts for me. 

I did offer flat rate shipping but it was costing $5.15....small flat rate box is 2$ more and just makes things easier.

I only offer small box flat rate shipping for my jerky. It is overkill for 1/4lb of jerky but even that comes out to 5.15 to ship.

ughhh...

How-to questions / How to combine shipping?
« on: August 05, 2019, 03:09:39 PM »
Once again a noob question but I came from OpenCart to here. I read the user manual and couldn't find much.

When people select certain products I want them to be able to combine shipping. I sell Gourmet Foods and More. This problem is mainly for the jerky as the other products have to ship flat rate.

I had a customer add 5$ of jerky (4 packs) which fits in a small flat rate shipping package. Except with this item since it is usually bought and sent first class I d not have that available. I guess I should enable it. However, the shipping cost was $20.00

Should I just make everything flat rate? I am using USPS.

Nope. Still nothing. If I change the address back to http: I will not be able to use my merchant for checkout. I'm pretty sure that is what is going on here. This didn't start till I had my page redirect to https://....

ughh

My Web host said this will not work. My SSL are fine. There's something wrong with the configuration.

Hello Justin,

The code given to you by AbanteCart cart support will not redirect to https, but only http.

The https : // www. redirect that I created should in theory work just fine. I'd guess that this is a settings issue within the AbanteCart cart configuration.

I suggest asking AbanteCart support why the items don't get added to the cart/checkout process.

Kind regards,
George

I just had a customer try to place an order and said he was not able to. I was confused and tried a test myself and when you add items to your cart they do not add.

Please do not tell me to search I have spent hours trying to figure this out. I just want a system that works and not lose customers because they aren't able to checkout.

I would post site but external links are not allowed. I also noticed guest checkout was no longer present. I also haven't touched anything recently in the admin section.

So when I installed AbanteCart cart it uploads as my mcnells.com and you would have to click to the file AbanteCart.

I want obviously mcnells.com to go directly to my homepage. Here is what my domain support said.

I would recommend contacting AbanteCart support and asking what changes need to be made when moving the directory/url. I have looked at the various settings but cannot see the option.

Kind regards,

General Support / Need a little help
« on: July 22, 2019, 09:51:46 PM »
Ok so after going through a bunch of e-commerce sites I finally just settled on AbanteCart. Now here are things I need to edit

PM for Website! To see what I'm saying!

How do I make the main banner background just white instead of blue?

When I slide the mouse under beef Jerky it doesn't show the 2 products available as it does for the hot sauce?

For the bottom area the about us (Not the actual one but the side snippet) and Contact us snippet where do I go to edit that?

Thanks,

Hopefully I will have my site ready soon!
