General Support / Re: Upgrade to 1.4.2 mess!

Last post by lyman023 - September 10, 2025, 04:07:03 AM

I upgraded AbanteCart and crashed just like you, luckily I had a timely backup, then I learned my lesson and tested it on a clone site before applying it to the main site.

General Support / Re: Best Practices for Optimiz...

Last post by Basara - September 10, 2025, 03:27:05 AM

Hello.
When a product or category page is opened for the first time, AbanteCart resizes images and builds thumbnails. This takes some server memory and can look slow at first. After thumbnails are created and if cache is enabled in store settings, pages will load faster.

Another good option is to use an image CDN, so images load from CDN servers instead of your shared hosting. This can speed things up a lot.

Shared hosting can work fine with proper caching and image optimization, but if the store grows or traffic is heavy, a VPS will give more stable performance.

General Support / Re: admin dashboard url

Last post by Basara - September 10, 2025, 02:50:24 AM

Hello.
The correct link to the admin is based on what is set during the installation process of AbanteCart. yourdomainname.com/index.php?s=your_admin  [your_admin] secret is provided during installation and can be located in your /system/config.php file AFTER installation.

Support / Re: Can refunds be issued from...

Last post by lindasmile116 - September 09, 2025, 09:34:41 PM

Hi,

Is it possible to issue full or partial refunds directly from Abantecart?

What is the process for this?

The only reference to refunds is under status where you can change the geometry dash meltdown status to "refunded", does doing this cause a refund to be issued?

Hello. You able to refund with PayPal Pro payment method. On order edit page PayPal Pro now has capture/refund features.

I appreciate the clarification about the PayPal Pro payment method and the capture/refund features available on the order edit page. This information is very useful, and I will definitely follow your guidance

I have had and noticed the same issue and my site only has 100 products.

Other packages I used didn't have this problem so I just wonder if the code just needs revision or / and a optimization.

Configuration / Re: AC Version 1.4.2 - SET PRO...

Last post by ixl - September 09, 2025, 05:03:38 AM

Hi

I believe this has been asked before but was 9 years ago under a totally different release.  So I cannot seem to find the comparison files that were apparently java files.

I'd like to be able to adjust the image speed for the next image in the slider.

So if a product is viewed and there are 5 images for example, its a bit too slow for my liking so wondered if we can adjust this. Its currently about 5 seconds.

Unless I haven't see it in the configuration....

1. go to admin->design->layout->choose Home page layout
2. Click gear button of block you should to change.
if block based on bootstrap5 carousel component:
- In the html-Editor find all divs with class "carousel-item" and add new html-attribute data-bs-interval="1000". See more details here https://getbootstrap.com/docs/5.3/components/carousel/#individual-carousel-item-interval
- For "owl" based sliders you should to edit template of it. See wrapper selector on the block edit form.
For example: public_html/extensions/novator/storefront/view/novator/template/blocks/listing_block/popular_brands_content_bottom.tpl

Hi

Really appreciate the help and reply.

I will take a look thank you.

Just a couple of things I noticed which kind of hurt when we migrated over that seem to be missing or awkward from past other systems we used.

• Image logo on email and invoice
• Product Image on Invoice purchase line
• Include Sort Order in main product summary list, so this can be set quickly instead of having to go into each product individually to set.
• Add ability for GIF images to work as product images. For example i have some small short animated gifs that id prefer to use as images instead od the complexity of videos.
• Customisable Email Templates so we can create, save and send emails out with a nice logo formatted template to our customers.
• Fix currency issue on promotions. If you only have sterling as your currency,  for some reason the promotion only offers dollars as the discounted value
• Ability to credit refund an existing order to produce a credit note and update transaction logs so reports are accurate.   The actual account gateway would separately need to be used to complete thr financial transaction refund which is fine, but we need to at least credit the order in abante first. AND produce a credit note.  This ensures reports in abante are also correct.
