While CubeCart definitely needs more quality skins, I would be very wary of a “CubeCart developer” that suddenly turns up out if the blue promoting a new skin, there are a few commited developers but also a lot of template shops that dont understand CubeCart and won’t be around in a few weeks / months for upgrades and support. Strange that it was released when it was and yet is already on sale - think that contravenes UK law ?
-
The admin.php file (or however it has been renamed) needs to be from the same version as the files in the admin directory
-
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.

There's a spelling mistake in the description
There are two spelling mistakes and the text is hard coded rather than being in a language string - reported here : https://github.com/cubecart/v6/issues/2250

Just installed this and tested it for a client and dont see any cross site errors when updating the details

Meta keywords are not used by any search engine and havent been for a large number of years so that part of it is pointless. Would never recommend having the meta description auto generated - SEO is hard enough for small E-Commerce stores without using poorly constructed data. Write unique and well crafted meta title and descriptions specific to each page and if you want something automatic that will provide far more benefit - install the Google & Pinterest schema.org Microdata plugin

Just come across this - what a great idea !

This plugin will not work with a lot of third party skins - see https://github.com/cubecart/v6/issues/2142

Hi Nicolas
That will be no problem - can you register on our website and open a support ticket with this same information and also include your website url.
This plugin should never conflict with any other plugin - you just need to ensure that you follow the couple of minor skin changes as documented on the install tab

Hi Brian, have you got any examples you can share ?

www.steringcharms.co.uk - This year my site has fallen off Google and is not being indexed at all it seems.
I assume you mean sterlingcharms.co.uk as the domain above doesnt exist. sterlingcharms.co.uk only has the homepage indexed with no other pages which generally means either a penalty of some sort or the rest of the site is being blocked possibly by directives in robots.txt but these should be fairly obvious via Search Console

It depends of what the errors are and while you should fix 404 errors, these will only have a very tiny effect on your SEO, not what you are seeing here. I will drop you a PM so you can contact me via our website and happy to take a quick look for you.
Incidentally, if you are still running under PHP 5.3, then you need to get that upgraded to at least 7.1 and ideally 7.2

mod_security can on a few occasions throw false positives but with modern, well coded software this almost never happens and the benefits far outweigh these small niggles. base64 encoded strings do not cause problems generally with mod_security or we would have hundreds of CubeCart sites tripping rules all of the time

You have a syntax error in your global.inc.php file - go and edit it again and make sure you have no missing or extra characters

You will need to ensure you do the manual upgrade of the 6.2.1 files again, specifically the admin.php and /admin directory files ensuring you rename them to what you are currently using
-
Also upgrade your account to use PHP 7.1 or 7.2 - it appears you are running PHP 5.5 which is extremely old, unsupported and much slower than V7
Ian
-
You probably have a mismatch of files between 6.2.1 and whatever version you were on before so the admin_XXXXXX.php file is from one version and the /admin_YYYYYY directory files are from a different version
Ian

It works well with V6.2 and we have it installed on quite a few client sites but then we automatically provide ionCube on all our hosting servers !

In admin, Store Settings, Search Engines tab, Meta Data Behaviour, set to "Disabled (Use global only)". That should stop all individual meta data from showing up.
That is a seriously bad idea from an SEO point of view - at best you are now going to have duplicate meta title and descriptions for every single product, category, document etc which Google and other search engines will hate and complain about. Sledgehammer to crack a very small nut which is likely to seriously hurt any search engine rankings the site will have

One has completed the PayPal transaction OK and I've been paid and this is listed as Processing
One has not completed the checkout via PayPal, I've not been paid and this is listed as Pending. The customer did not get an order confirmation email.
This seems odd behaviour compared to what happens ordinarily. Any ideas?
Not odd behaviour - this is exactly the process CubeCart with PayPal and most payment gateways, follows.

Hi
As I mentioned above OpenSSL, 1.0.1 will support TLS1.2 so assuming that your SSL certificate itself is TLS1.2 compliant (all *should* be now !) then you are covered although that is still an old version of OpenSSL that has huge numbers of security vulnerabilities - see https://www.cvedetails.com/vulnerability-list/vendor_id-217/product_id-383/version_id-202288/Openssl-Openssl-1.0.1t.html
Updating that is the responsibility of your hosting company and something they should do automatically - however, many hosting companies are pretty poor about updating things like this, especially the larger generic hosting companies, and you are much better off using a specialist E-Commerce hosting company

This great payment gateway doesnt work under PHP 7.2 (PHP 7.1 works but gives a deprecated warning) as mcrypt (which this code relies on) has been removed in PHP 7.2
-
Try ticking the option on Store Settings | Features tab "Disable initial shipping & tax estimates"
-
If you have purchased it then you should be able to contact the author for support although as the skin hasnt been updated since January (a bit better than some other skins which have never been updated !) you might be out of luck.
-
Search for any other urls starting with http:// - I have no idea about that skin but t doesnt just apply to css files especially if you have changed anything yourself. If you have added a slideshow or any images check those as most people automatically add them using http://

Have you looked at our Retail Therapy skin which comes with a free skin config plugin. We are just about to release new greatly enhanced versions of both of these and are always happy to listen / implement new changes to either or both of these for future releases
