[Important]

Important: Use an external XML validator or parser when you write language files. The smallest error in an XML file (missing tag <definition> or </definition>, missing closing [!CDATA[ ]], syntax error, typo, ...) stops the php parser and the rest of file is ignored and you dont see it. Extremly long to check.

For 1.1.7, 1.1.8 and 1.1.9, the following code fetching jquery through google always hangs on local install without internet connection:

public_html / install / view / template / common / header.tpl

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.2/jquery.min.js"></script>

   var include = '<script type="text/javascript" src="view/javascript/jquery-1.7.2.min.js">';

It is completely useless, a simple and direct

do the same as the 1.7.2 is already in the distrib.

I have some questions about the new AbanteCart marketplace:
- Does it relates in any way with old Algozone marketplace ?
- What is exactly the fee you take per extension sale (have not found) ?
- I have a problem with the limit of $100 sales to reach each month. Some small extensions are not able to reach this amount before 2,3, or 4 months (eg. a template). Would be wise to remove that limit and pay each month sales done.

Thx for that info.

In OpenCart, they are many language editors as extensions which do the same thing on flat files. Faster speed access and no dependant of a DB crash.

Everybody who looked a little at source code saw that it is OC 1.4 series based.
It is heavily modified and can be considered like a fork as oscLoad, osMax, ZenCart <- osCommerce
Remember OC is GPL and you are free to copy and modify source.
Just one point will be to write "Partial Copyright OpenCart" somewhere.

Can someone tell me the usage of 'default_' prefix in extension names ?
Should third parties use 'default_' too like 'default_spanish', 'default_russian' in language extension names ?

Ah good info.

Here the result of a language translation:
- menu items, banners have been lost somewhere.
- responsive design cuts words and sentences. Often too short for displaying. Same thing in Admin. It is formated for English without thinking it could be wider in other languages.
- many labels stay in english. The translated entry is not pushed or doesnt exist in xml files. Same with spanish.
Minimal language requirements are not satisfied.

NOTE: Point 3 - Since i found the problem was typo errors in my XML files stopping the parser.

No thx Im translating by hand at very slow speed and install/uninstall because of XML.
I know i will have certainly problems with french zones not correct as usual in all cart.
A good translation will get french/belgium/canadian users.

I found more settings in latest OC than Abante, admin features are different,
OC is direct and simple, Abante focuses on pretty interface for a merchant who dont care programming.

Manual translation a very long and ingrate work.
But translation work helps to see what the cart can do.
Found it like an old Opencart version, many functionalities missing from the latest OC.
Im also waiting for a good place selling extensions à la Opencart.

The french language package 1.0.1 is horrible.
Many terms and sentences are incorrectly translated and lead to interrogations about sense for a newbie.
It is also uncomplete.
I do not recommend it.

Thx Ilegrand, your shot showed me the way.
I didnt see the additional button because i didnt put the extension "ON" and button stay hidden.
It's ok now, I mistaken because I used to see all settings on same page on other carts even when disabled. I didnt understood basic settings were done by the core and additionnals by extension controller.

Yeah, I deviated a little from the topic title.

Just do you agree many details settings are not displayed on 1.1.7 for some shipping modules (UPS, USPS, ...) but present in extension's code ?

Ex for USPS: https://github.com/abantecart/abantecart-src/blob/master/public_html/extensions/default_usps/admin/controller/pages/extension/default_usps.php
Where are these fields on page ?

Should i open a new thread ? Im asking why nobody report it
