Abantecart 1.3.4: Storefront page was blank with bootstrap5 template.
(1/1)
OneMore:
Hello,
As a user of AbanteCart 1.2.11, I am currently testing Abantecart 1.3.4 on localhost with PHP 8.2.12.
The storefront had a totally blank page, apart from the welcome message.
(No change if adding a category, a product, and clearing the cache.)
I the template in use was "bootstrap5" instead of "default" one.
I switched the template from "bootstrap5" to the default one, and the storefront displays OK.
Likely are some additional requirements for the bootstrap5 template to display, but this is very confusing for beginners.
I would suggest keeping only the default template in the initial installation, and let people download alternative templates if they want.
Cheers.

Hello Basara and thank you.
I had a look at "system/logs/error.txt" and all errors were coming from missing language translations.
I after disabling my custom French translation, the problem disappeared.
My translation is still incomplete, and may contain errors or missing files or strings.
I assume the default template was more robust as possibly not using those strings.

One idea in such a case would be having a failover mechanism that takes the original English string.
I didn't study if it would be easy or difficult to implement.

Hello.
"custom_french"? Are you creating your own extension or changing something in the extension code?
