Extension Support / Foxy Template Setup
September 15, 2015, 05:29:51 PM
Bought the Foxy Template and install is not going well.  Still waiting for kind developer to respond to my questions. Anyone have the install instructions or can tell me why it won't retain the retina logo? Also, I want to keep my current layouts, but when I switch to Foxy, layouts are not retained, the blocks are duplicated making it hard to select the correct block.

Built-in Features / Empty Category as Menu
July 26, 2015, 03:25:36 AM
I'm using Categories to create a menu structure. For the two empty categories which have no product "Blog" and "Events" which I want to link to external URLs, I need help.

I don't know how to apply the URL so that it works like a menu.
I don't know how to avoid displaying the "This category has no products."

Security / HTML Block use absolute addressing
July 26, 2015, 02:25:54 AM
My host first needs the site to be live to enable HTTPS, but site is not ready and I don't want to take  down current site until this new one can replace it within hours.

Related to this, I have a couple related questions:
1) Where do I learn about the development workflow to understand the sequence of standing up an e-com site to see if I'm overlooking something?

2) Some of my HTML Blocks use absolute addressing to build menu links, this means I have http:// , and anticipate that these links will break once the site switches to HTTPS. What can I do to minimize the "URL fixing" I have to do after HTTPS is enabled. I don't see a way to make links relative when building Blocks.

Security / Authorize.net
July 26, 2015, 02:24:28 AM
I'm new to e-commerce site development, but with AbanteCart, things are going pretty smoothly.

We plan to use Authorize.net as the payment gateway, but what I'm unclear about is if this means no PII is stored in AbanteCart. Who do I ask? Currently, I'm planning to get HTTPS and a signed certificate plus dedicated IP. Is this overkill?

Thanks in advance!

We require our customers to pick up their orders at a predefined week, but they can pick the location and date from a range. To make this available in AbanteCart check out process, how do I turn off shipping option and customize language, add extension (??) to enable scheduling a pick up date and secondly a return date.

Our products are "rented" for a 6 week period. Customers pick up and drop off product from a set of convenient locations which I want to display and show corresponding dates.

How can this be done in AbanteCart?

The Resource Library has many images that I want to remove. They are the demo product images. Is there an easy way to delete?

I've created content pages. I want to link to those content pages from HTML block, but can't determine the URL.

General Support / Custom Menu
July 22, 2015, 05:17:25 PM
I'm trying to create a new menu like the Category menu, but link to content pages and the default pages.

I can get Menu items created, but they don't link to the related content page, plus they are of the default menu style, not Category menu "style".

Using AbanteCart 1.2.2 with FoxY template.

Built-in Features / retina images
July 14, 2015, 06:18:30 PM
How does AbanteCart handle retina images?  Does it do it at the HTML/java/or jquery level?

Do I need to upload all images with @2x?
