I have just ugraded from 3.0.4 to 3.0.5.

When i click on "Store Home" in the admin panel, it defaults to the "off-line" setting.

I've got it set to "Allow adminstrators to view store off line?" and the store is turned off in the general settings.

When the store is live (turned on), everything is OK, but cannot check how it looks unless i set it to "ON".

Any help would be great.

Do you have Shop view 'Off'
Allow Adminastrator view 'Yes'

Yes, I have these settings set correctly as seen in the attachement.

I've now done a complete fresh install of CC 3.0.5 and still the same problem. When I try and view the store when it is "Off-line" from the admin panel it won't let me view it.

Anyone else getting this ?

Still getting the same problem with fresh install of 3.0.6.

How do you visit the store. You just enter the url in the browser off the store or you get there using the link in admin area ?

I go into the store by entering via the admin panel.

I have subsequently re-installed again (3.0.6) and the problem has disapeared. I'm not sure what was happening, but when i clicked "Store Home" from the admin panel it would link to the site url, but then get instantly re-directed to the "Off-Line" url.

It was as if it couldn't detect an admin session and so defaulted to the off-line view.

fingers crossed it is OK now.

Thanks for replying.

It's playing up again.

I can't view the store whilst off-line from within the admin panel.

verry strange i have version 3.0.6 also , don't have probs with it .
