[V6.05 Checkout Estimated shipping]

Hi Al, thanks for the upgrade, I like the shipping estimate calculator and I am sure the customers will like it too.

Can you tell me how to change the word Estimated, to "Get Estimate" please?

<a href="#" onclick="$('#getEstimate').slideToggle();">Estimated</a>

[Google Base to Merchant Center CubeCart v6]

I click it once a day and fetch a new feed after i've added new products. 

​Lets be clear what you click please.?

[Google Base to Merchant Center CubeCart v6]

Hi DB,

thanks for the info. I did not know that google base was in HOOKs. I dont even know what a hook is! (fishing excepted)

However I will probably be able to find "modules/plugins/Google_Base/Hooks/admin.product.import.format.php" and edit there if required.

When I "export catalogue", I found that "identifier_exists field" was set to false, once set to true google Merchant accepted my upload.

 

Once google base is set up does that mean that automatic updates will occur? What does google base do?

[Google Base to Merchant Center CubeCart v6]

Hi DB, I have both. 

Last night I exported the feed using, Export catalogue, modified the columns using excel and submitted it through google merchant.

There are no details as to what google base does other than "Google base product export feed" .  I have turned on google base and entered a password (from google merchant) in "store settings" advanced other.

Waiting to see what happens.

Hi bubbaboss,

When you set up your excel.cvs file did you have heading like the ones listed below?

id

product_type

google_product_category

link

title

description

image_link

price

condition

shipping_weight

upc

ean

jan

isbn

availability

brand

gtin

mpn

identifier_exists

Did you get it working?

As I have changed to V6, I am not sure what to do now. I have turned on google base and entered a password (from google merchant) in "store settings" advanced other.

Will wait a day to see if there is any change in google merchant.

Other than that I found from the "export cattledog" you can export your feed, but have to fill in several columns like brand and mpn and google_product_category. I then went to google merchant and uploaded the cvs file. Fingers crossed.

I have found the third picture missing. Otherwise well done.

[Who is signed in?]

Try this, log in to your admin page.

Click on customers, click on any customer that is registered.

There is a tab "log in as ........" click this tab.

A new tab opens up as the store front with the customer name , they are logged. This will be a great help in adjusting customers orders.

Now delete this customer page.

return to admin page.

go to stats, click on users online. 

Do you see the customer listed  as the administrator?

I am sure this will not be an issue, but is does not look right.  Any thoughts?

[foundation - Changing colors of buttons]

Have a look in  https://forums.cubecart.com/topic/49394-foundation-minor-change/ and look at my hacked file

cubecart.default.css

This file is the one to edit instead of foundation.css.  The code allows colour changes and H1 .. styles too.

Does this insert go in the main.php file with Foundation skin? No it does not, as there is now a plugin, download and install the key.

On the admin page there is  a status square and a site ID. I assume these should be ticked and a name typed in these respectively.?

Yes tick the box and add the code found in the widget 30smVjmlnS1BJ5n1FlohiPRvE8iqsi5Y for the site ID.

[AJAX and backbutton basket]

The answer to all this is due to the htaccess file. Thanks to Al for fixing this. If you would like the file PM me.

[Zopim Live Chat Software | Engage your Customers | Live]

Hi,

I have a orange popup  on the cubecart forum page, is this for cubecart or just spam on my PC.?

 

YEs it is, but I knew nothing about it.

[AJAX and backbutton basket]

"I think you can compare the expected table structure (see /setup/db/install/structure.sql) with what you have (using phpMyAdmin), especially the CubeCart_saved_cart table."

From what I can work out they are the same. I also went through the structure.sql file and it has the same structure and the database.

I also see when debug is turned on with AIOS, the number of items is not updating unless page refresh is used. More fuel to the fire! 

[AJAX and backbutton basket]

First I cleared cache on cubecart admin and PC chrome.

I have found that an order appears in the mysql data base under CubeCart_saved_cart after adding on the shopping basket. However the previous additions I made to the basket does not appear in the database but shows up in the basket when I click on view basket.

Therefore the previous additions are being held in cache (as we suspected somewhere). Refreshing the screen clears these previous additions and shows the current addition.

Deleting the latest addition clears this item from the database. And the cycle repeats.

Where to look from here?

[AJAX and backbutton basket]

Here is the 

CubeCart_saved_cart

Table comments: CubeCart_saved_cart
 

Column	Type	Null	Default	Comments
customer_id	int(10)	No
basket	mediumblob	No

[AJAX and backbutton basket]

Further I had a look in 

localhost »maketext_ledaswan_ccrt1 »CubeCart_order_inventory

 

• and the quantities dont look as though they align with anything I know. All small numbers.

 

 

 

Should I be clearing cache in the following:

https://www.harrisorganicwine.com.au/shop/

If so which ones?

Clear cache

 

Clear SQL cache

 

Clear language cache

 

Clear image cache

[AJAX and backbutton basket]

Brian,

 

I tried /shop/index.php?_a=basket&empty-basket=true when logged in and the basket empties but the data is held some where else and not destroyed, as you suggested.

there are 30 items in CubeCart_saved_cart table. see attached

database cubecart_saved_cart.docx

Should this be empty?

[AJAX and backbutton basket]

Thanks Brian, where to start in solving this?

[AJAX and backbutton basket]

OK, so I have cleared the cache on my PC, and started afresh using my shopping cart (harrisorganicwine.com.au/shop) with Chrome.

I open the shop and checked there were no items in the cart. Cart icon $0.00

I log in 

 I go to the shop and add three items. Checkout basket shows the 3 items.

click Empty Basket and return to the home page. Basket shows the pricing of $0.00.

I go to the Shop homepage and add another three items. Cart basket show the pricing of the 3 items.

I go to the basket shows the first 3 items. Click Update basket, and the latest 3 items are shown.

I then click empty Basket and return to the home page. Cart show the pricing of 0 items.

I go to the Shop homepage and add another three items. Cart basket show the pricing of the 3 items.

I go to the cart and the basket shows the previous 3 items. Click Update basket, and the latest 3 items are shown.

Is this normal? I would have expected the “Empty Basket”, to empty the basket for all time.

[AJAX and backbutton basket]

Thanks Brian, any comment on the "ajax", ie can be fixed with asynchronous updates like 'ajax'.

[AJAX and backbutton basket]

Not sure if this has any thing to do with the above, but I keep getting an error when I refresh the page or try a search. See attached.

Please-wait.docx

[AJAX and backbutton basket]

Hello, 

the other day I reported issues with the shopping cart loading and refreshing.

A friend tested my shopping cart and reported the following on www.harrisorganicwine.com.au/shop :

"Actually there is a basket bug. "
Moving between pages using the back button and the basket is not consistent. This can be fixed with asynchronous updates like 'ajax'. It's what I've used here (quepasa) to get the price update as the client types.

Also not top of page time displayed from clients computer not from server. These are done without refreshes or reloads. Does the documentation or forums talk about level of Ajax utility on the cart?

Any thoughts, fix or comments please?

 

 

[Foundation - minor change]

I did not see "element-social", but now its obvious.  

I have attached my default.css file, warts and all, hoping that it may be of use to others to change color schemes

Thanks, have a good day.  ​

cubecart.default.css

[Foundation - minor change]

Hi Brian, further along this path I have not been able to change the footer text and link color from the default blue. 

I thought the footer may have been a panel , ie;

.panel a { color: black; }
.panel a:hover { color: darkgrey; }

but the answer was:

#box-documents a { color: black }
#box-documents a:hover { color: orange }  works OK, however the icons in the RH column for twitter and FB not changed

Inspector shows

<a href="https://twitter.com/HarrisOrganic" title="Twitter"><i class="fa fa-twitter-square"></i></a>

<i class="fa fa-twitter-square"></i>

I dont know what to do to change the icons.

Also noticed on 10 March your post that you used the word gray, instead of grey. Is this acceptable?

regards Duncan

[Coupon for Free shipping in Cubecart 6]

Yes, I think it is possible. I made up "free shipping" coupon, 100% discount on shipping, on all products. However there is no limits as to where the shipping could be. Thats OK, as I can give these coupons to my best customers, as I know where they live.
