Hello to everyone.

Could you help me to get latest products to be displayed in column on the left(category and product pages) without overlaying with pages content?

Thank you.

No need to use SSH in this case. Just go to Graceful Server Reboot in WHM.

Hi,

Many thanks for your reply, in the end i got my host to restore a copy from the previous days backup and all is working fine again.

All i can think it could have been, i installed a few VQmods, the funny thing is it was working fine for a good 12 hours or so before the pages disappeared, i don't have a clue which mod it was as i disabled all of them to see if it made any difference but nothing. Anyway after it had been restored i reinstalled them one by one, checking after each install and it didn't happen again and hasn't happened since... So I am clueless (prob literally)

Thanks again

Simon

Noteworthy are the large enough sizes of the images and the visibly obvious quality of the product photography. As you're aware enough that you're probably still working on the images, they would ideally not vary in aspect ratio (proportions) where square images for round subjects already work quite well. The images that are not square can readily be cropped to square (probably with a few inevitable exceptions) to suit both the photographed products and the layout in the same stroke.

Overall, nicely done, enough so that the variable sizes and formats of the images is distracting and actually detracts from the refreshing net effect. Again, that is separate from the quality of the product photography itself, which was thoughtful even for those items that are not artistically challenging (such as a stamped label on wood).

I'd like to offer my customers the option to purchase reward points only (nothing physical - I have my reasons!) and have the order auto-complete (status switched to 'Complete' and reward points released automatically) when payment is received from PayPal.

The catch, if you can call it that, is that I wouldn't want every single order to auto-complete since I do sell physical goods.

(This is for OpenCart v1.5.4.1)

If this is up your alley, please contact me at tgulley [at] click-vroom.com with a quote for your time.

Thanks a bunch,
Tim G.

While there's nothing wrong with having mirror sites as safeguards against servers going down (that does happen), there is no compelling reason why both the .com should not be bilingual alike the .ca (where that feature seems to function without incident). The pricing seems the same in both, without segregation between $ USD and $ CAD. I did not explore that in the two, but it would be reasonable just to ride out the long-term averages without converting (one or the other will turn the flip-side profit, assuming that number margins are about the same). I find the color treatment of the .com substantially easier than that of the .ca to view. I would even say that the .com is better executed than the .ca in that aspect of their themes. The two do not particularly need to differ by way of visually mellow or jarring effect.

Overall, nicely done.

The now prevailing solution for 1.5.5.1 is merely to replace ckeditor itself; with the new one. That has been suggested April 06 and afterward, and seems to work without incident. The original source of the real deal is http://ckeditor.com/download, and the current ckeditor can be slipped into place via ftp (use FileZilla Client to avoid or cure file corruptions by certain other ftp clients).

Hi All,
I have updated my cart to show a different header on the home page using this change within "catalog/controller/common/header.php"

on the Home page it is using a different header (header_home.tpl opposed to header.tpl)

Code:

if (!isset($this->request->get['route']) || (isset($this->request->get['route']) && ($this->request->get['route'] == 'common/home'))) {
    if (file_exists(DIR_TEMPLATE . $this->config->get('config_template') . '/template/common/header_home.tpl')) {
        $this->template = $this->config->get('config_template') . '/template/common/header_home.tpl';
    } else {
        $this->template = 'default/template/common/header_home.tpl';
    }
} else {
    if (file_exists(DIR_TEMPLATE . $this->config->get('config_template') . '/template/common/header.tpl')) {
        $this->template = $this->config->get('config_template') . '/template/common/header.tpl';
    } else {
        $this->template = 'default/template/common/header.tpl';
    }
}

What i am looking to do is change it so this alternative header (header_home) also applies to the information/information page.
any idea's how I can add a "one of"/"or" type statement to it?
Thanks,

Is it possible to somehow not show some of the product related tags in the Compare page ?

For example, I don't want to show the following four tags there, because they're not relevant to my store: Brand, Summary, Weight, Dimensions (L x W x H)..

How can I remove these from the Comparison table ?

Ik snap je vraag niet helemaal, geef eens een duidelijker voorbeeld?

Maar de overgang naar een nieuwe server heeft er niets me van doen, tenzij ook een nieuwe domeinnaam.

Ik ben overgegaan van 1.4.9.x naar 1.5.4.1, ik heb Google niets verteld maar gewoon opnieuw laten indexeren.
Persoonlijk snap ik de paniek niet voor Google en alle ellende die het fabriceren van redirects in een htaccess met zich mee brengen.
