Is anyone aware of a mod, that will allow me to export a sales inventry every week.
I guess I could do this with an SQL export and MS Access Database maniuplation, but my CC owner is not going to be able to do this, so a Mod in the admin control panel would be good.

hi
Maybe I am missing something but do i have to add a different tax clas for each country in the EU. We are based in the UK and basically we need one tax rate of 15% for the UK and europe and a 0% tax rate for everywhere else in the world.
I have added a 15% uk tax rate and applied it to only be applied in the UK
Do I now have to create a austria tax rate at 15% and only allow that for THAT country and the same for belgium
cyprus etc????
Is there no way of just saying "europe??"
or am I going about this the wrong way??
any help would be greatly appreciated..
joe
I had the same problem.
As far as I can tell, you can only apply tax to the one country.
You cannot apply tax at one rate for UK, another rate for France etc etc.
If you only want to apply tax to the UK, then you should be OK with the single tax band, however, Channel Islands may cause you a problem.
Alternatively, I could put you in touch with a cubecart coder in the UK, who charges very good rates.
He wrote me a custom script for carriage in 4 bands at different sale values, in under a week.

Hi Folks.
Me again.
I've seen somewhere a mod, that allows CC to pass the cart inventry to Paypal, but can't remember where.
Any ideas where I've seen it.
TIA.

Well it seems this is definately the cause.
Secpay, have removed the digest checking from my account, and everthing is working.
Apparently, they have requested Cubecart impliment this in the secpay gateway, and are now suggesting that I do the same.
Does anyone know, if there are any plans to impliment this in the gateway ?
-
Yup.
The same thing threw me too. Like Robsta says.. ensure your currency is set to 1.00.
-
I think I had the same problem.
Add an item into the catagory, IIRC it solved my issue.

Guys n Gals
I'm in the final stages of yet another CC3.18 e-commerce site (my 3rd one)
I've created a secpay/paypoint account for the customer, but I'm unable to get secpay to accept a transaction.
I get a message "Digests do not match, Possible fraud"
I've tested with an older secpay account, and this one works.
Having contacted secpay, it would appear that they implimented some new security features back in January, the new account is subject to these new security measures, whereas the older one isn't !!
Am I doing something wrong?, or is there a more recent gateway I should upload.
The current gateway has very little in the way of configuration in the GUI, other than enabled, test mode, and merchant ID.
Thanks in advance

So I did a check and I was wrong. The theme is resizing the images to fit within its bounds so to fix this I just deleted all my images and set my thumbnail size to 110 and max image size to 250 with quality set to 80. Then reloaded the images and it has made a world of difference. Hope that helps!
I tried this and they still look pretty poor compared to using say the classic skin
-
Guys.
My thumbnail images are really pixellated.
when you enter into a product, the image is nice a clear, just the thumbnails are very poor.
From what I can see, the thumbnails are reduced in size to become a thumbnail, but then the cubecart enlarges this thunmbnail image to make it look really poor.
Any ideas.
Thanks in advance
In your Admin control panel choose General settings - then near the bottom you will find Image settings - the last setting here should be something like image quailty and then under it 60-80 recommended - set the figure here to say 80 and save settings (at the bottom of the page) You will need to delete the image from the product page and then add it back from your uploads folder.
Hope this helps
Jim
I tried all this.. even tried increasing the image quality to 999, but it still does the same.
It looks like it's something to do with the ArwenBlue skin that I'm using. If I switch back to the classic skin, the thumbnails look OK. I have a way to overcome this.. but it's not ideal.
Copy the images into the thumbs folder, and rename them.. seems to work. But only after modifying the product

Well it gets better.
I've modified reg.tpl, so it now contains the extra field.
I figured out in PHP admin, how to add an additional data field, but I can't get it to populate the database.
Am I missing something obvious ?
-
OK. this is what I found.
If you place an order.. then go into the admin section and view the same order.
It has a status of pending.. at this point, the items remain in stock.
If you change the status to completed.. the items remain in stock.
They only come out of stock when the status is changed to processing.
On my live system, I can see orders with a status of processing, and these have had no interaction from me.
So the only thing I can come up with is this..
Something in the payment process changes the order status from pending to processing.. at this point, the items come out of stock. If you skip this step, then the items remain in stock.
-
Very Interesting. I see what you mean.
Test product 2 is showing as 3 in stock.
I just ordered all 3, and completed my order through to Postal form.
However, when I go back into the store, it still shows as having 3 in stock.
So I went and did the same on my test system, and guess what.. it does the same..
Having said that.. my test isn't clean, so I'll do a fresh install this afternoon, and let you know what happens
-
I just realised. It's not much use in adding an extra field in the Register form, as you'd also need to add one to the Database table.. and this is way out of my league
-
Hiya i would like to know how to add additional fields and remove fields from the register form, can anyone advise me how to go about it? thanks
I added a new field but only the textfield come out without the name, how do i make it visible the option name??
http://webpage.cybergalaxy.org/website2/ca...2luZGV4LnBocA==
I also realise that in the admin side can only see the customer Name Email Invoice Address Phone Reg Date / IP Address No Orders Action
If i add in additionsl field to my form, how do i make it visible in the admin side oso??
Guys, does anyone have an answer to this question please. I've been asked today, to include an additional field (company name) on the registration form.
Thanks
In Advance
-
The solution is here.
Its a very small mod in includes/session.inc.php. takes about 30 seconds to fix.
I did mine yesterday
-
I've just had a quick look in Veiwcat.tpl, it will be tonight when I get home before I can make any changes.
I'd have to do it on my test system 1st.
What changes would I need to make to the html.. nothing obvious jumps out at me.
Thanks again

Guys.
My site went live last week.. thanks for all your help.
I've now been handed another one to bring up to tidy up and bring up to scratch.. it seems I'm now the company cubecart expert .. lol
My question, when entering a master catagory, you are presented with a folder view of the sub catagories.
Is it possible to change this to a list view.
Thanks

I have the same problem with the channel islands, no one came back with an answer.
Luckily for me, I only needed to tax zones.. one for the UK at 15% and one for the channel Islands at 0%
Maybe you might want to see if there are any commercial mods available. They tend to be very reasonably priced at about $20, it's whether or not you can find one to solve your problem .

Guys & Gals.. Quite a long replay to my own message, but someone might understand what I'm getting at.
The site went live this weekend, so until I can find a definitive answer, I've done a small work around.
As we don't indend shipping outside the UK. I removed all the other countries from the database.
It keeps it tidy at my end, and easier to manage.
I then created a new county code for the channel Islands.
So Now when a customer comes to sign up, they have United Kingdom and Channel Islands only in the drop down box.
Next.. In the Language file.. I modified the phrase Country = "country" to say Country = "UK or Channel Islands"
Now when a customer signs up, he will be charged VAT if he's mainland UK, and no vat if he's Channel Islands.
Ok, so it's messy, but it works.
Does anyone know, how I should have done this. ??
Also whilst on the subject.. Jersey & Guernsey (channel Islands) are in the list of counties/states for the UK.
If I were to change the county box, in the sign up area, into a drop down, but remove Jersey & Guernsey from the county/state list.. would this have worked. ?
-
Guys.
This is my last question.... honest.
Provided all my prices are correct, the site will go live on Monday.
In the UK, we have 2 tax areas.. 15% for mainland UK, and 0% for what we call the "Channel Islands" (Jersey & Guernsey)
I've tried all sorts of things in the GUI so that the channel islands do not get taxed..
I've removed Jersey from the ISO file, but it still seems to be subject to tax.
So the only way I can figure out to do this is, to create a new country code for the channel Islands.
However, people in the channel islands, quite rightly, regard themselves as United Kingdom, so at the time of registration, they could easily use the default United Kingdom in the drop down on the registration page..However by doing so, will inadvertantly subject themselves to tax
How do I configure this, so the country selection is blank by default, thus ensuring my channel island customers choose "Channel Islands" as thier country.
Or am I barking up the wrong tree.. and there is an easier way to do this.

hooray

I found this.. taken me 2 days but it looks promising.
in reg.tpl find:
<td colspan="2">{LANG_RECIEVE_EMAILS}
<input type="checkbox" name="optIn1st" value="1" tabindex="15" {VAL_OPTIN1ST_CHECKED} /></td>
and replace with:
CODE
<td colspan="2">{LANG_RECIEVE_EMAILS}
<input type="checkbox" name="optIn1st" value="1" tabindex="15" {VAL_OPTIN1ST_CHECKED} checked/></td>
At least now when I sign a new user, the check box is checked by default.. just need to test if it works now

I've tried all combinations.. I can't seem to figure it
Customer password recovery
in Technical Help
Posted
The way I've overcome this is as follows.
Create a dummy account with a simple password, ie 12345
Launch PHP admin (if you have access) and open the table "Customers"
Browse this table and find the dummy customer you just created.
Under the column "password" highlight and copy the haxadecimal string.. something like (123FF4DEABC33CC5A77D)
Paste this string to a text file for future reference.
Now browse the same column and find your customer.
Overwrite his password string with the one you copied from the dummy account, and execute.
Your customer, now has the password "12345", so he should now be able to log in and change it.
No doubt there is a better way, and someone will be along to explain.
