Hi Basara, here is the thing: it used to work without any issues but someday it just stopped working.

[Human verification has failed! Please try again.]

Hi guys,

I have a quick question.

When somebody want to write a review, once completed and before submitting it, the customer needs to click on Google reCAPTCHA so as to verify the fact that he/she is not a spam bot etc.

But for some reason I get the following error (as seen in the attachment):

Human verification has failed! Please try again.


I did check the reCAPTCHA with Google etc and the keys and so forth do match.

Any idea where the problem may be?

Any insights would be highly appreciated.

Hi llegrand,   

and thank you for your reply.

I did not reply sooner because I went ahead, bought the pro-extension and in the end I found out that it does not do what I asked for.... hahaha, what a blunder.

In any event, during my conversation with the developer he actually came up with an alternative idea, specifically to increase the text size... (see attachment); while mine looks currently as seen in the second attachment.

Any suggestions or would it mess up the css/deign of the page?

Guys,

I have a quick question:

In the option values - when I choose selectbox - in order to "play around" with the prices I have also to add a price modifier.

So fat so good.

My question is: is there a way to hide the price modifier and to display only the total price that has been changed/affected by the price modifier?

I thank you in advance. 

Hi Basara, thanks for the reply.

I know how to upload the image but I do not know where to find them and what pixels to make the images, that is my issue.

Hi guys,

I have a question:

In the main menu, next to the checkout icon, I want to create an additional menu that would lead to my blog.

Although I pretty much understood how to set it up, I face one issue:

I want to upload a "blog"-icon (since I did not find any in the library). How do I find one - with the need size - or in essence how do I do it?

Thank you in advance.

Hi guys,

here is an idea - proposition that I came across quite recently and it has to do with Pinterest.

The link to the article that I recently read was this one:

https://www.websitebuilderexpert.com/building-online-stores/how-to-sell-on-pinterest/

My point is this:
There are a couple of other platforms that have integrated in them the option of creating a Buyable pin through Pinterest.

The main concept behind it is this:
As someone searches through Pinterest, you can create an additional button-pin on your products' pins (assuming that you have a Pinterest account) that allows the person to buy your eshop's products directly though Pinterest,

In all honesty I have no idea if it can be done but it would be amazing if we could do this - that of course is my personal assumption.

I don't know, what do you guys think?

Hi Basara and thank you for pointing it out to me; frankly I never saw that - my mistake obviously.

Thank you for it 

[By the way here is another suggestion (I also changed the topic's title accordingly):]

Hi Basara,

yes you can post the URLs on the comment sections of your orders but so as for the customer to actually see it, he will have to copy-paste the URL on his browser and then click enter.

Instead you could give something like an "insert-link" attribute which would allow the customer to only click on it and the respective URL opens up automatically.

By the way here is another suggestion (I also changed the topic's title accordingly):

Is it possible to allow some people to become something like moderators for your online shop?

Why I am saying this:
As you are the super admin you want full control over everything, to be able to observe the stats etc.

But when your online shop becomes successful you want to add people to do stuff that usually the super admin would do like: responding to customers, changing prices on products etc.

Nevertheless, there are things that as a super admin you do NOT want the moderators to see like: the money you make, your shop's stats and so forth.

In other terms, you want people to be able to take care of the basic time consuming things while, at the same time, you do not want them to be able to know your income or doing things that could mess up your store like: deleting products and so forth.

Obviously, this involves a lot of programming no doubt about it.

But since I love Abantecart - this is why I am making this proposition.

Think about it like this: that at some point, if an online store is that successful and is to go international, more people will have to be involved in managing the online store - thus, such an option (aka, mods) will have to become available eventually.

I would like to make a proposition so as to further enhance Abantecart's amazing features.

Using Abantecart for a while now, I can say with confidence that it is amazing.

Nevertheless, since it is an online shopping platform here are the two main points that I would like to point out:

1. When completing a sale, you will also have to ship the product. When talking to the customers and trying to provide them with a tracking number and tracking-link, there is no option in which you could add a tracking URL on which, when the customer clicks on, would open the relevant tracking site's section.

2. Invoices. Although, the invoicing is done automatically by Abantecart it looks a little "primitive". In other words, it is more a matter of aesthetics rather than an actual issue.

I believe that looking into the two aforementioned areas, it would further enhance Abantecart's amazing experience.

Finally, what I wrote here is not to criticize Abantecart - on the contrary, it is more to further develop this amazing platform.

Sincerely

Hi Basara,

In all honesty I have no idea.

I just see it from time to time (rarely though) pop-up and I was wondering what is going on here?!

A final question: even if such an error occur it does not affect a customer when placing an order or checking out etc, correct?

Hi guys I have a question:

I receive from time to time the following error:

"Currency Auto Updater Warning: Currency rate code GBP not updated"

Something that I did encounter in the past as well.

Long story short I was advised to go to Alpha Vantage and to create my own"API key".

After I received it, I went to the relevant currency.php file and updated the specific section.

So, even after a couple of months, why do I still get that error again, any ideas?

Thanks in advance

[just as an update.]

Hi guys,

just as an update.

As I was waiting for Abolado's reply - so as to make sure that I will not mess up things - the next day; everything appears to have been updated?!

I mean all features (from what I could see) have been added and AbanteCart has been updated to the newest 14 version (something that is also shown at the bottom of the page).

On top of that, another serious issue that I was confronted with (namely a js file that would mess up my product relations) has been resolved as well!!

Wow 

My guess would be cloudflare but I cannot be sure about it.

And finally, as if it wanted to troll me, I still receive a massage to upgrade to the newest version.

I do not know what to say but I do love the new features that you guys did add.

Thanks 

Hi abolado,

yes, first I upgraded the Abantecart version on my test site and there were no problems.

Then, I went to the live version.

Basically, the live version has not issues besides some that I did point out (on the admin side).

So, to the topic at hand:
Are you suggesting that I should go to the database

find the table  `abdw_custom_lists

delete the 'store_id' column and than re-install version 14?

Just to be sure before I proceed doing anything.

Regards,
Nik

[Stock Locations:Locations:]

Hi guys,

I updated to the latest version, the message was that the update was successful but when I looked at the bottom of the page I still saw version 13 instead of 14.

When I checked if everything was updated (in install/Upgrade History) everything was upgraded OK.

Afterwards, when I checked the error log I saw the following:

"
database error: AbanteCart core v.1.2.13 SQL Error: Duplicate column name 'store_id'
Error No: 1060
SQL:
ALTER TABLE `abdw_custom_lists`
ADD COLUMN `store_id` INT NULL DEFAULT 0 AFTER `id`;
in <b>/.../core/database/amysqli.php</b> on line <b>109</b>
"

Finally, when I went to the specific database, the column "store id" does exist etc...

What is more, when I open a product the option of:

Stock Locations:
Locations:

is available in my cloned store but in the live version it does not appear.

OK, I am puzzled.

Any insights guys I would highly appreciate?

I thank you in advance. 

PS: I read the documentation but couldn't find anything in regards to this.
PS 2: when opening the version.php file it displays the correct version.
