    Order Status

    in Technical Help

    Posted

    Would like to add "Payment not received" as an option for Order Status

     

    "Canceled" is a little harsh for my sensitive customers. 

    But still need to keep the Canceled option, because, well, some orders need to be Canceled from time to time.

     

    Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks

    Tip to all with this issue ...

    get in the habit of capturing the I.P. address of those creating accounts, as saved by your store.

     

    Keep these in text file, or excel spreadsheet, or whatever.

     

    You can check who/where the location is by using the WHOIS for either the U.S. or other countries to see WHERE that is coming from. If it's a country you won't ever do business with (Romania, Argentina, Iran, Iraq, etc.), you should create an .htaccess file or edit the one you have to BLOCK access to your server from those IPs.

     

    So, if you end up with 20 "fake accounts" in your store from Russia, well guess what .. block the suckers from access to your site entirely.

     

    Only way to fly.

     

    We do this here both at server level for hackers, and at domain level for abuse.

     

    A ban IP option in the store itself would be useful, too, at some point.

    I am seeing bogus customer registration also.

    i.e.

    (Last, First name)

    DitsBymnineneEK, DitsBymnineneEK

    Vc0bwe JD, Fe3chd JD

    ChbbiadOS, ChbbiadOS

    Things of that nature.

     

    The IP address has not been stored on these accounts...  I do not know why.

     

    enabling reCaptcha did not prevent spam sign ups.

    Subcategories in two or more Parent Categories

    in Technical Help

    Posted

    I would like to have a sub category in more than one parent category.

     

    I sell Fabrics.  They can be categorized by color and/or designer

     

    example I would like to have

    Lets say Wendy Smith designs the fabric line 'Chintz' and has 20 fabrics in the 'Chintz' collection

    The 'Chintz' fabric line is mainly red fabrics.

     

    Right now I have /Fabrics/Chintz by Wendy Smith

    I would like to put "Chintz by Wendy Smith" in these categories:

    /Fabrics by Designer/Wendy Smith/Chintz by Wendy Smith

    /Red Fabrics/Chintz by Wendy Smith

    Does that make sense?

    Who's on first?

    I'm sure I can pop the image into a mapping program and use what you suggested above.

     

    Maybe I am too old school.  Open to any and all suggestions.

    Replace Logo with a Mapped image

    in Customising Look & Feel

    Posted

    Now that I am using CubeCart Version: 5.1.5

    I still would like to replace <p class="logo"><img src="{$STORE_LOGO}" alt="{$META_TITLE}" />
    (this is in /skins/###/templates/main.php)

     

    with a series of tables for image mapping.

     

    when I insert the table, there are 1px or 2px padding where <tr></tr> separate tables.

     

    I've been looking in css files, but can not find anywhere there would be cellpadding applied.

     

    Thanks
     

    SSL on store

    in Technical Help

    Posted

    So I'm set up through Authorize.net and is secure for payment information.

     

    I'm having customers tell me that their anit-virus software and/or browser plugin toolbar is telling them that our site is not secure.

     

    I'm looking into SSL certificates and my webhost (LunarPages) has two SSL choices. Basic and Pro

    https://support.lunarpages.com/knowledge_bases/article/175
     

    Would getting an SSL certificate and enabling SSL in cubecart help?

     

    Thank you for any input.

    Taxes in my State

    in Technical Help

    Posted

    Yay taxes!

     

    My shop is located in PA.  We tax goods and shipping to people only in PA.

     

    When a new customer, who it not registered with my site, adds things to their shopping cart and views their cart, it shows Tax.

     

    If I turn the tax option off, it obviously does not show tax.  But when I place something in my cart and pretend to check out, showing I am in PA, it does not add tax. 

     

    Is there a way to show tax, only after they have registered and say that they are in PA?

    Country/State v3 to v5 conversion

    in Technical Help

    Posted

     

    How many customers do you have? If less than 100, you could try to manually change the name to a number. Use a utility like phpMyAdmin, a tool commonly provided in the control panel of your hosted server account.

     

    If there are too many to handle manually (and you will need to process the addressbook and order_summary tables), I could work with you to write a script that would try to recognize state names and convert to the 'id' number.

     

    2900 customers... 

    Country/State v3 to v5 conversion

    in Technical Help

    Posted

    So I just upgraded to v5 from v3.  In v3 there was a text box that would allow the customer to type in their State.  Now that I have upgraded to v5 there is a drop down menu for "State"

     

    I am running into problems that customers who registered in v3 placed PA or Pa or Pa. or Penna. for Pennsylvania. Other example, Wa. or WA or Wash. for Washington

     

    I am in PA and only charge tax for PA customers. So those who typed in Pa or Pa.... v5 does not recognize, and does not apply tax to the order.

     

    Any suggestions?

    Authorize.net pending to processing Need help with Relay Response URL

    in Technical Help

    Posted

    The problem was, when re-directed to Authorize.net's secure site for processing, the customer had to click "Confirm order and Return to Site".  Then the inventory would be adjusted.  What I did was log onto Authorize.net and make a header above the button to make clear that the button should be clicked.

     

    From what I understand you can set up a Relay Response URL.  So after the customer enters credit card info, they automatically get re-directed back to your site, avoiding clicking that button. But I have yet to figure the Relay Response URL out.  Maybe someone can help with this?
