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

This is the first time using this cart. Like it a lot, easy to work with and the CMS feature is excellent, my previous cart didn't have that. Didn't customize too much but happy with the way it came out. Don's Vintage Audio Feedback welcome!

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".

It is the whole reported number as the percentage, that is, for you, 7.00 (do not include the actual percent character). If you are experiencing this in CC654, please know that several stores are experiencing tax calculation issues. The solution at present is to make an edit to the following file: /classes/cart.class.php, line 1203, remove the line: $this->get(); The value $37.90 is 3X what the tax should be, thus somewhere, somehow, CubeCart is running $179 through the tax calculator three times. (Personally, I have not discovered why, but the programmers imply this should be the fix.)

Hm. We can see that right away CubeCart is told to use fr-FR, but the phrases are not coming from that language pack. (See Debug Messages[0]) Please examine the following and try the suggested action: In admin, Languages, take note of any actual entries in the Domain column (not the slightly greyed-out suggested examples). If there are actual entries, blank them out and Save. Have CubeCart clear its internal cache. Did anything change?

In shipping.class.php: Find near lines 237-240: $this->debug(sprintf('<strong>&gt;&gt;&gt; Shipping zone [ID %s] matches the delivery address! Use this zone for shipping calculations.</strong>', $this->_all_zones[$i]['id'])); if ($this->_settings['multiple_zones'] == 'first') { $this->debug('Looking for first matching zone of best match (instead of searching for all matching zones - see AIOS module settings)'); } else { Change to: $this->debug(sprintf('<strong>&gt;&gt;&gt; Shipping zone [ID %s] matches the delivery address! Use this zone for shipping calculations.</strong>', $this->_all_zones[$i]['id'])); if ($this->_settings['multiple_zones'] == 'first') { $this->debug('Looking for first matching zone of best match (instead of searching for all matching zones - see AIOS module settings)'); $closest_match_zone_id = $this->_all_zones[$i]['id']; break; } else { The above is the exact same edit as was posted earlier, just the line numbers have changed.

Yes, you can. Having different content implies having a distinct and separate database - or, at least a distinct table prefix (can be on the same database server).

Nice idea! In admin, Maintenance, Rebuild tab, there is a means to "Reset all product view counts". "Views" is one of the choices on what criteria to base a query for "Best Sellers" (aka Popular Products). But resetting Views might be overkill for some. I have in mind a text box next to Store Settings, Layout tab, "Source data for popular products" saying, "Within the past [###] days." This won't be a date range, but will this suffice for your needs?

On my development system, I am trying Amzin 1.05 on CC647 running under PHP8.1. (Found a bug in a template.) But the links appear correct. I have not yet installed CC649. But analyzing code differences between CC647 and CC649 shows no likely source of this situation.

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.

Yes, as well as all logs.

Decided to persist with getting the wamp server to work in a ssl mode, so I could use PayPal commerce working offline with CubeCart. Well it has gone 10pm now and after looking at lots of variations on other sites and lots of trial and error, I have FINALLY got the PayPal Commerce extension working fully in wamp, meaning I can develop my sites offline and upload to live servers when completed... Yay.!!! This is the difference with working with outfits like CubeCart, you get help rather than sarcasm and assistance rather than bitter critique. Forwards and onwards..... Thanks Al

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

In a stock install of CC6, the list of images to play in the slider is part of the HomePage document. In admin, Documents, click the Edit icon of the document shown as having the HomePage button selected. You may have an easier time of it by using the editor's Source mode. The slider is optimized to show 1000x300 pixel images.

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

I wonder if a specific browser plugin could be to blame... messing with the DOM.

We need to find out why they aren't 'sticking'. My experience tells me to first look at those settings that could possibly make the aggregate amount of content larger than 64KiB. Those settings are the Offline Message and Copyright Text. Then second, look at the error log.

I am wondering if, somehow perhaps a bug in the code, installing de-DE "over" the existing de-DE language pack, didn't actually overwrite the existing databased content of the email-contents with the contents of the new file of that incoming language pack. (Unlike the language phrases that exist in a file in a language pack, the phrases of the email-contents file of the language pack are all databased.) I will check on that. In the meantime, you can sort the above listing and delete all rows having 'content_id' equal to or greater than 26.

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.

@radman420 by data issue i mean that it would appear no data (in this case Products) is been supplied to the $POPULAR variable which is used to load the popular products section. Since it appears to happen in both the Foundation and Amzin skin that would suggest that it isn't caused by the skins. All i can suggest is pop a message in Technical Help section as this is beyond a skin issue. Perhaps something went wrong during the CubeCart Update or a setting has changed. I'm running 6.4.1 with Amzin and Foundation and the popular box is loading fine so i'm not sure whats causing yours to not load since you updated.

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).

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.

At about line 66 in main.php, find: <div class="sidebar" id="sidebar_left"> {$CATEGORIES} {$SALE_ITEMS} {$MAIL_LIST} </div> Change to: <div class="sidebar" id="sidebar_left"> {$CATEGORIES} {$SALE_ITEMS} {* $MAIL_LIST *} </div>

CC620 has adopted the attitude that clearing the cache as often as all prior versions of CC5/6 was doing was incredibly aggressive. Now, the admin is to make all changes - adding inventory, creating categories, editing documents, etc, etc - then click the "Clear Cache" button (should now be lit) seen at the upper-right corner of the admin page. The cache holds SQL queries and their results to lessen the load on shared database servers. If you are not concerned about the load on the database while setting up your store, then in admin, Store Settings, Advanced tab, switch off Caching.

Hey Claudia - you probably want to edit your post to get your actual admin_XXXX.php name out of public view. As for the database warning you're getting, it's being discussed in GitHub.

If you make the change I listed, you can add as many as you like, works fine for me.

We would ask that you create the error_log. Then, when you get the blank screen, examine the contents of that log.

I will need to determine which runs first, the plugin which creates $DROPSHIP_BILLING from the order details, or the snippet that adds cust_groups into the order details. Be back soon.

Create this snippet: Enabled: checked Unique ID: ordersumcustgroups@cubecart600+ Execution Order: 99 Description: Adds Customer Group Name(s) to Admin Order Summary Trigger: admin.order.index.display Version: 1.0 Author: forums.cubecart.com/topic/53037-orders-to-show-customer-group/ PHP Code: <?php $snippet_ordersumcustgroups = $GLOBALS['db']->misc('SELECT `group_name` FROM `'.$GLOBALS['config']->get('config', 'dbprefix').'CubeCart_customer_membership` AS M INNER JOIN `'.$GLOBALS['config']->get('config', 'dbprefix').'CubeCart_customer_group` AS G WHERE G.`group_id` = M.`group_id` AND M.`customer_id` = '.$summary[0]['customer_id'].';'); if (is_array($snippet_ordersumcustgroups)) { foreach ($snippet_ordersumcustgroups as $membership) {$member_groups[] = $membership['group_name'];} } $snippet_ordersumcustgroups_order['cust_groups'] = isset($member_groups) ? implode(',', $member_groups) : ''; unset($member_groups); $GLOBALS['smarty']->assign('CUST_GROUPS', $snippet_ordersumcustgroups_order['cust_groups']); Make this edit in the admin skin template: orders.index.php, near line 197, find: <div><label>{$LANG.common.email}</label><span><a href="mailto:{$OVERVIEW_SUMMARY.email}">{$OVERVIEW_SUMMARY.email}</a></span></div> On a new blank line after that, add: <div><label>{$LANG.customer.title_groups_membership}</label><span>{if $CUST_GROUPS}{$CUST_GROUPS}{else}{$LANG.common.unknown}{/if}</span></div>

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.

We launched a new version of the successful Galaxy skin. It is available in the Marketplace for purchase. Check out the demo here. Hope to hear your feedback!

He emailed it to me for me to test, because I wrote him to say it had a problem. He said several others had done the same thing. I see v4.0 is not on his website yet, however. Here's the contact link for Daren: http://www.semperfiwebservices.com/contact.html

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 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:

Please find fix for when CSRF is enabled on the front end here: https://github.com/cubecart/v6/commit/df12071a6e99bab5e87534557e02cc4740a1173c

Backup your database as well as your files. I download all the files, except for images, to my hard drive. And I make a copy of the database in phpMyAdmin, as well as a zipped backup. That way, if the worst were to happen - you can get back to your old version. That way you don't need to be so nervous about doing something new to you. I've been upgrading manually for a very long time, thanks to all the edits I have made to stock code that I don't want to lose.

" Macro {$DATA.link} still does not work in that specific email template " I see what's going on. Try this version: Change to: case self::ORDER_DECLINED: // Nothing to do, but leave the option here for hooks & such break; case self::ORDER_FAILED: // Email the customer to explain their order failed fraud review $this->assignOrderDetails(); $content = $mailer->loadContent('cart.payment_fraud', $order_summary['lang']); // removed $this->_order_summary) so that assigned details will not be overwritten break; case self::ORDER_CANCELLED: // Cancelled $this->assignOrderDetails(); $content = $mailer->loadContent('cart.order_cancelled', $order_summary['lang']); // removed $this->_order_summary) so that assigned details will not be overwritten break;

I've had a noticeable uptick in AOL, etc., refusing emails of late as well. This has happened off and on over the years, no matter which hosting company I have used mxtoolbox.com to find out if my domain was blacklisted.

im coming in late on this...but I do this every 6 months. First time I did it there were like 8,000 of those 'fake' customers. Here is the SQL command I used in phpmyadmin on my granny version 3.0 store: DELETE FROM `CubeCart_customer` WHERE noOrders = 0 AND regTime < 1454012330; Since you are running 6.0 then you would probably run it like this: DELETE FROM `CubeCart_customer` WHERE order_count = 0 AND registered < 1460000000; or even better: DELETE FROM `CubeCart_customer` WHERE order_count = 0; It will clean house in a second! i like to put a timestamp on it so that if someone has been shopping in the past two weeks and havent donea checkout yet and are still thinking...then they wont be lost and end up having to reregister.
