Can you believe that CubeCart has been around since 2003? What started out as a small project has snowballed powering thousands of stores globally. If you have a success story you would allow us to publish we would be truly very grateful if you could share it with us. We need new merchants to realise the potential they have using CubeCart. This will help contribute to further growth, new features and an all round brighter future for everyone. Please feel free to email me personally at [email protected] with your company name, store URL and short success story of upto say 300 words. Many thanks to you all for your support.

In the skin's config.xml, find the <image reference="category">. It is set for 800 pixels on the longest dimension. Change this to 900. It will auto-scale down to fit the container (which is 848 px wide). Next, you will need to find the CSS rule (I do not know where it would be.): .cat-hdr-img img { margin: 0px auto 5px; } Change to: .cat-hdr-img img { margin: 0 0 5px; } This CSS change will remove the margin that the browser adds to either side of the image, in equal part, to center the image in the slightly wider container. Be sure to clear Cubecart's cache.

The developer will probably / should be releasing a new version of the skin to take account of all of the skin changes included in this recent version. However, if you are using a modified version, then that update will not automatically apply to your store and you should chat to the developer about this. If you dont make all the front end skin changes then you wont be able to take advantage of any fixes / new functionality that has been added - you may say that you dont need this functionality but it is always best to stay fully up to date because the situation simply gets worse and worse with each upgrade that is released - this is the problem with having custom changes

Try this: In includes/ckeditor/config.js, at the bottom, find: config.allowedContent = true; }; Change to: config.allowedContent = true; config.coreStyles_italic = {element : 'em'}; config.extraAllowedContent = 'i[*]{*}(*)'; }; CKEDITOR.dtd.$removeEmpty = '{i: 0}'; The same added statements can be used for other HTML tags used in unorthodox ways.

Email routing will automatically be set to "Automatic" or sometimes "Local Mail Exchanger" which in 99.99% of cases will be the same thing. You only need to set it to Remote if you are using external MX records pointing away from your hosting company which is effectively what Godaddy are forcing you to do by closing email ports. Some people choose to use gmail or other email service providers, but why should you have to ? Disabling php mail() is standard practice now for security reasons (WHM built in security advisor flags this as a high security risk if it is enabled !) and SMTP should always be used and configured to use SSL / TLS. Email sent via SMTP is much more secure, more likely to be delivered and not rejected or put into spam and isnt complicated to use. So much so, I would recommend that php mail() is removed as an option in CubeCart as it is very likely to disappear as an option in the near future Ian

For anyone that uses git with CubeCart (or any other packages for that matter), cPanel have been adding a huge amount of functionality which will be included in V68 - see https://features.cpanel.net/topic/allow-users-to-install-websites-from-version-control V68 is already in Edge release status so most people will not have access to it yet, but V68 should be into general release in a few months (V66 has just been released in the last week) Ian

The 'top menu' is the "Navigation" bar (or sometimes "Shop by Category" box). The menu is built from all the categories (enabled and unhidden) there are. There are also three special items: Home, Sale Items, and Gift Certificates. To add any other links to this group would require editing the skin template "box.navigation.php".

Ok in that case try 1.9.7 (just released): https://www.cubecart.com/extensions/plugins/paypal-commerce

Did this transaction pass 3D secure? If so I believe it should be protected and you shouldn't be liable to chargeback fees. Our PayPal integration has much more granular settings. If you want to you can choose to only accept payments that pass 3D secure. With that setting enabled you are never liable to chargeback fees. The square extension could have this feature added.

Did you follow the steps in method 1? https://support.cubecart.com/hc/en-gb/articles/360003794198-How-do-I-upgrade-from-CubeCart-v6-to-latest-v6-

An enhancement regarding Gift Cards allows: the admin to assign a collection of images to the Gift Card system. One image is the default (master). the admin to have a text editor to add more content to the Gift Card purchase page. the customer to choose an image when purchasing a Gift Card. for the additional content to appear on the Gift Card purchase page. At checkout, a small-sized image of the chosen image appears in the list of basket items. For a physical Gift Card, the card can be (pre)printed with the chosen image. For an emailed notice, the HTML content can now include a link to the image the customer chose. For example, the collection of images may include birthday, Mother's day, Winter holiday, Valentine's day, Thank You, and other themes. This enhancement is not a plugin. It involves hard code edits.

Thank you. By way of a bit of background for you. In the early stages of our online shop journey we checked out many different platforms including some of the well known names such as ZenCart. We found the setup of these other platforms to be quite difficult and certainly not as well organised and intuitive as CubeCart. The ease of setup and the organised admin area were the main reasons for us deciding to go with CubeCart, a good decision and we look forward to using it for a long time to come. These forum pages have been a big help, we really appreciate you being there and the assistance you provide, keep up the good work because no doubt I'll be back

For step D, be sure that the updated plugins (that needs the ionCube that works with PHP 7.4) are not enabled. Otherwise, there is still the situation of an ionCube-encoded plugin wanting a later version of ionCube that is not running under PHP 5.6. Otherwise, the above is the sequence of steps I would suggest.

Experiments have shown that making these two edits will resolve this issue.

Brains suggestion is definately the way to go initially. Create a new file ini-custom.inc.php in the root of your store. I did have issues with the memory size when i did this, so you might want to play with this. <?php # Custom initialization commands # Filename: ini-custom.inc.php # File location: main CubeCart folder ini_set('memory_limit', '256M'); ini_set('max_execution_time', '60'); ini_set('error_log', 'error_log'); ini_set('log_errors', 'on'); ?> To add to this, Cubecart support is extermely fair. You'd be hard pushed to find dedicated product support at such a price anywhere else. https://www.cubecart.com/technical-support

So I think in conclusion the rich snippets work but took a little while to show in the search engine.

For CubeCart not accepting any of the general store settings probably means that one or more of the admin-supplied data items is extraordinarily long. Settings that could get out-of-hand include a really long Offline Message, or a really long Copyright Text. All the data is probably getting sent from the browser to CubeCart, but then CubeCart wants to "serialize" all that data, and the limit is 64KiB. You might also want to create the error log to see if CubeCart is complaining about anything. https://forums.cubecart.com/topic/51550-how-to-create-the-error-log/

The POF module prior to 1.2.2 had its own code to email a courtesy email confirming the order was placed. Version 1.2.2 now is supposed to use the established code in CubeCart's core codebase. Looking at 1.2.2 (version 1.3.0 is the same), it seems more work needed was mentioned to the programmers, but didn't get done. So, please make this edit: In the Print Order Form module, gateway.class.php, near line 206, find: if (!empty($item['product_options'])) $product['product_options'] = implode(' ',unserialize($item['product_options'])); Change to: if (!empty($item['product_options'])) { if (($list = unserialize($item['product_options'])) !== false) { foreach ($list as $value) { $item['options'][] = $value; } } else { if(method_exists($order,'unSerializeOptions')) { $options = $order->unSerializeOptions($item['product_options']); } else { if(empty($item['product_options'])) { $options = array(); } else if(($options = cc_unserialize($item['product_options'])) !== false) { } else if (($options = cc_unserialize(base64_decode($item['product_options']))) !== false) { } else { $options = explode("\n", $item['product_options']); } } foreach ($options as $option) { $value = trim($option); if (empty($value)) continue; $item['options'][] = $value; } } }

The debug section can be quite lengthy. Your browser has the ability to Find things in the web page. Usually by the keyboard combo CTRL-f. In the small bar that opens (maybe at the bottom of the browser window) enter one of the terms I mentioned above. If not found, find for the other term. Do NOT copy/paste the entire debug section into a forum post.

You can see the manual update guide for Amzin at http://nitefox.x10host.com/docs/ManualUpdates/amzinguide.html - The latest update (V1.03) is mainly a compatibility update for CubeCart 6.4.0/6.4.1

You can do if you're comfortable with it and familiar with github. You'd need to look over at cubecarts github and see what issues have been resolved and look at the code changes needed. Editing the core script can get messy if you lose track of what you're doing. Far more simpler to just update the normal way unless your site is running a modified version of cubecart and you don't want to lose those edits (not including 3rd party skins as those are unaffected by core updates).

Replied to your email.

Agreed - failed upgrades have been very common in the past when done via the built in upgrade option and often result in a mix of files from different versions - this will cause this type of problem. It has been covered in quite a few threads on here before and a manual upgrade would definitely solve it. Ian

Provided that the digital file is publically accessible, in admin, Add/Edit Product, Digital tab, Custom File Path section, you may enter either a direct path to a folder on CubeCart's server, or a Full Web Address that points to anywhere on the Internet. If your AWS repository requires a login, that may pose an obstacle unless you know how to overcome it.

Please delete the unique key 'custom_oid' on the CubeCart_order_summary table. And replace it with a standard key or normal index. This was a bug in the beta.

ok will give it a try thanks yes it is working thanks a lot uploaded the files as in the other discussion Grts Rob

In one of your skin template files, probably main.php, find these statements: <div class="row {$SECTION}_wrapper"> <div class="small-12 large-9 columns" id="main_content"> <div> <div data-alert="" class="alert-box alert"> <ul class="nomarg no-bullet"> <li>JavaScript is required by this website. Please enable this in your browser settings.</li> Change the large-9 to large -12. The various CSS sizing classes instructs the browser how much of the available container to give to this row section. There are 12 columns per row (within the parent container). So, when the browser viewport is 'large', this section of 9 columns will take 75% of the row. A section of 12 columns will take 100% of the row.

We are excited to release CubeCart 6.2.0-b1 which sports a number of fabulous new features. This is a short beta release to ensure any possible issues are found and fixed before being production ready. It also gives our developer community time to test their extensions for compatibility. What's New? Incremental order numbers (with dynamic prefix/suffix). #636 Tools to help with GDPR. #1892, #354 * Automatically minified and compressed HTML, CSS & JS. #1905 * Checkout state/county can be required, optional or disabled. #1870 * Invoice template editor tool. #1904 Caching improvements. #1536 Product category added to Google Analytics for eCommerce. #1859 * Order summary to show "guide" currency used. #1913 Ability to show hide site document titles. #1907 * Email log to show fail reason. #1899 Email configuration test to work prior to save. #1894 reCaptcha added to newsletter signup. #1891 * Colours added to admin control panel order statuses. #1888 Introduction of "Safe Mode". #892 Product dimensions (width, height & depth). #828 * Changed admin URL emailed on setup (if changed). #1314 "Continue Shopping" added to cart at all times. #1381 * Search redirect to product detail page for single result. #1427 Auto delete captured card details when order status changes from pending. #1886 Download: CubeCart-6.2.0-b1.zip Download: CubeCart-6.2.0-b2.zip (New more stable beta 2 Release) Download: CubeCart-6.2.0-rc1.zip (Now at release candidate stage) Release Notes * These features will require skin updates if you do not use the default "Foundation" skin from the 6.2 release. This is a beta release which may not be suitable for live production stores. We hope to release 6.2.0 final in the next two weeks. The 6.1 branch will continue to be developed and we anticipate 6.1.15 to be available early next week. Please help us by posting any bug findings at GitHub. Please note that our office will be closed of the long Easter bank holiday weekend and no technical support will be available on Friday 30th or Monday 2nd.

Can we know the name of the skin? I have tested with an option not coming from a set, and an option that did come from a set, and both behaved correctly.

Welcome Carlos Martins! Glad to see you made it to the forums. Only two or three database columns store a date as a SQL DATE/TIME value. The other 'time'-related columns are "UNIX timestamps" - the number of seconds since Jan1,1970. There are PHP functions that take this number, and a "pattern", as arguments, and give back a phrase. The phrase can be 'fuzzy' (Yesterday, two weeks ago, etc) or absolute (4 Feb, 2018).

We need to keep looking at where the code finds certain data objectionable. You have an address_id of "1". I would like for you to use an external database manager. If you are being hosted, you probably have a hosted account control panel (Cpanel, maybe?). One of the tools provided in your control panel is phpMyAdmin. Using this, you can look at the database directly. Once you have phpMyAdmin showing you your database follow my instructions earlier.

Welcome Michal Kubacki! Glad to see you made it to the forums. When you received that error banner, you should have been taken to a screen for the customer to edit their address: ?_a=addressbook&action=edit&address_id=9 (or some number) CubeCart wants to create an array of all possible state/county and country terms that will be used by other processes (shipping, payment, etc). This happens at User->formatAddress(). This error is triggered when the state/county cannot be found in the CubeCart_geo_zone database table. In CubeCart's admin, Countries/Zones, Zones tab, page down to the country section where the suspect address is located, then look for the correct spelling of the County.

Try using Authorize Only. I would expect Payeezy to have this capability. Then, just be mindful that you will need to finish off each transaction manually.

That worked. Thank you very much. RLN

Super thank you

That is a "signature block", or 'sig'. You can create your own. The personal sig appears with every post a forum user makes. Do not take it personally.

Making CC3 work with later versions of PHP will require some edits to the code. The latest versions of all the CubeCart version families are now configured to not have any licensing requirements.

Sounds like the flag is on the USPS side. Look in the Admin Dashboard>Advanced>Request Log. Be sure to hide your USERID if you share any info from there.

I would suggest that you ask @havenswift-hosting for help, as I was hoping it was some simple setting that had been messed up on upgrading. If you don't already have the error log, please do that and see if there are any messages when you do a test order that might be helpful. https://forums.cubecart.com/topic/51550-how-to-create-the-error-log/

There is a bug in the foundation skin that prevents the 'More' button from being hidden - see this PR for how to fix it. 'hide-for-small-up' means that the element will be hidden for all window sizes of small or larger. However, as you noted, this means it will not display for mobile, which defeats the purpose - you should indeed change it to 'hide-for-medium-up' or your mobile users will not have any way to paginate. One other thing - this line: <div class="hide-for-medium-up" id="ccScrollCat">{$category.cat_id} The {$category.cat_id} should be removed or you will have a seemingly random (to the customer) number show up just above the 'More' button. Removing this does not appear to have any effect on the button's functionality.

There is an open bug report on GitHub about this. For now, do not use traditional pagination.

This is a known issue, possibly caused by a cache problem or customers changing their minds and using the back button. I'll try to find some of the threads so you can read what others have said. No one has yet, as far as I can remember, been able to reproduce it so it can be resolved. Here's the most recent one:

I've created a bug report: https://github.com/cubecart/v6/issues/1607

Perhaps this will be helpful: https://support.cubecart.com/Knowledgebase/Article/View/227/41/how-can-i-install-cubecart-v6

The ability to set default options was added in 6.1.6.

I haven't made a change in mine, either. It's been so long I don't even know how I knew what to put there

It took 24 hours for THEIR emails to us to arrive a couple of days ago. Something's not normal over there.

You will need to change the permission on your global.inc.php file to 744 in order to be able to change the naming to what you want (DO NOT GO BACK TO PLAIN ADMIN). After you have saved your file with your naming, change the permission back to 444. Also, when you have all the naming for the admin_XXX folder and file set to what you want - be sure there is not an additional old folder hanging around named admin or a file named admin.php. (Not everyone is getting these leftover file/folders messes) They need to be deleted ONCE YOU ARE SURE you can login to the Dashboard with YOUR renamed admin_XXX.php.

Please do not use any quantity designations in CubeCart. That is, do not add lb to 20lb. Do not add $ to $49.99. Do not add cm to 100cm (length not really used in CubeCart). Do not add % to 50%. Use only digits (and the optional period for the decimal point, if appropriate). The setting you make in Store Settings is carried over everywhere else (specifically weight and currency symbols).
