Hello all, I see Cube cart has a feature to add translated version for each language for categories or products. I want to make my website more SEO friendly in more languages meaning i want to add subdomains and with some cronjobs i can make a perfect SEO website for all available languages in Cube cart admin. Now here is the problem. I have more then 10.000 products and i can not simply modifying them one by one to add translations for each language. I have all languages for all products in excel. Is there any coder who can make a mod for this? So i can import excel or csv in admin and select which language i want to import? Let me know if you can and we can discuss the budget.

I see the mobile version and the desktop version both works and the address is different (maybe you fixed this issue in the meantime). About your logo for mobile ... you can re size the logo and modify the source of the mobile template then insert the path name where your modified logo is for your mobile version. Now according to your SEO "expert" ... i don't agree with the arguments. The search engines visit the desktop site and read the content and index it ​Well this is not actually true. Maybe some search engines, but in general we are focusing on Google and Google is very smart for indexing websites. The google bot has also triggers to block mobile content or to allow mobile content. However in general search engines is indexing desktops pages yes, but it doesn't mean they wont rank on mobiles. They see the link at the bottom of the page for the mobile site and follow it - the link does have the display_mobile parameter set but this parameter vanishes when you follow the link and navigate around the mobile site I didn't see this problem while i was browsing both versions? They read the mobile site at the same address and find different content ! You can always create a subdomain like mobile.domain.com and show the mobile content there ... but like i said Google is smart enough for understanding and you can trigger the Google bots mobile wise. They index the "new" content and see a link at the bottom to the desktop site Not sure what this means. They throw their toys out of the cot and decide that that page isn't worth worrying about as it never knows which content it's going to find - and apart from which it breaks the rule that Google say that the content they read should be the same as the content displayed to a visitor when they follow a result and might be considered as cloaking Ridiculous statement https://support.goog...wer/66355?hl=en I vanish from the search engine results ! Vanishing from search engines is not that common unless you give them a reason for it. But if i read the story from your SEO expert i shouldn't worry for vanishing from Google. In general all SEO "experts" will tell you different stories about who is wrong or right, but i will wish you goodluck with that

Ah yes thank you DB. I changed it according to the screenshot and now it is working again! Hopefully now it will work a longer time Thanks for your help.

Hello, Could you please share the working ccNOW zip file? We got many complains that the gaeway doesnt work. I tried myself and when you select ccnow s gateway at step 3 durng the checkout process you will get a page error 500 The link in the module work find:https://www.ccnow.com/cgi-local/transact.cgi so the website is not down or something. Please help us to get ccnow working in cubecart. Thanks!

Hello, It seems that Cubecart also update the gateway payments after upgrading the cubecart shopping cart? Because we fixed manually the default CCNOW module, but after upgrading cubecart it doesnt work anymore. Here is a fix in your current CCNOW module so that we CCNOW users doesnt get a corrupt shopping cart after upgrading. Open: /public_html/modules/gateway/ccNow/gateway.class.php find: 'x_shipping_amount' => (isset($this->_basket['shipping']['value'])) ? number_format($this->_basket['shipping']['value'], 2, '.', '') : '0.00', change to: // 'x_shipping_amount' => (isset($this->_basket['shipping']['value'])) ? number_format($this->_basket['shipping']['value'], 2, '.', '') : '0.00', Now CCNOW module works again. Please update this so that every release and updates of Cubecart will work with CCNOW.

Yes Wordpress has a strong SEO platform and the plugin you are refering to works very great i had this one also on our bloggers website In this way you have full control over SEO. Don't get me wrong ... Cubecart has a GREAT SEO out of the box, but some little tweaks are better to make it more perfect.

@bsmither PERFECT! You are my hero. This is what i was looking for!!! @Dirty Butter Yes i have my own info on each product and category for everything and ofcourse unique for each product or category. I hope Cubecart will add this feature as default, because its really better for SEO purpose in this way!

Hello Dirty Butter, Opencart has for every product or category its own unique page title without adding the global meta tags on every page title. We migrated to Cubecart and we want all 301 goes well for each page and information and we don't want gobal meta on every title page. Also its bad for SEO. Google for duplicate page titles ... will give enough results and reasons not wanting all page titles the same. Yes you are right, but if you use a short title like: "DEMO" Cubecart will still ADD global meta title to it so your product or category will show: "DEMO + global meta title"

Hello, Yes i have filled in my own META tags in that section. But i don't want to show on EVERY page those global meta tags as title. Is there a way to turn this off? Which codes i need to change or remove? Thanks.

Thank you for your reply, but it didn't work. I also cleared the cache in maintenance tab, but no difference. Any other ideas? Currently i see this: <title>Chains - Global Meta Tags</title> But it should be: <title>Chains</title> Why is it using the global meta?

Hello All, I just want to change the way Cubecart is dealing with SEO, but i am not sure if this has something to do with a SEO setting in the admin? What i want is like this: If i create a product and i name this "DEMO" then i fill in the META title "DEMO" i want the META data to be "DEMO" Now what is happening is this: META data is "DEMO + general SEO text from the general SEO settings" I want to get rid of the general SEO that is added on ALL pages ...

Thats great, but my clients / customers do not wait until Cubecart is awake and providing support. Business is on going 24/7. We NEED this module to work, so either Cubecart provide support or i need to hire someone. Its very URGENT. Problem solved by my programmer (topic can be closed).

No errors in admin error log only system error log and i cant see anything you described below. We are a serious webshop and we need to migrate to CCNOW asap. If you think your able to help me, please pm me and we can agree a freelance project. I dont think Cubecart support is able to help since i dont get any response at all. We pay for cubecart license, cubecart is providing CCNOW out of the box and this doesnt work at all! (Shame). If no help from here i need to hire freelancer anyway i am unable to fix it myself.

The settings are fine. Also shipping: 'shipping' => 'offset' => 1 'name' => 'Local Post Package' 'value' => '9.95' 'tax_id' => 2 If you can open the ccnow plugin and check with me what can be wrong i can do some changes with ssh ... i am a linux expert so modifying a module i have no problems with, but programming its really not my thing. Please help us out with this PS: I never used CCNOW before ... i use other gateways so i am sure its CCNOW plugin that needs an update. All other payment gateways working fine.

Hello bsmithers, I found the debug options and i see the gray arrea in footer/bottom of the page ... How and what do need to check if the values are correct? I am not a programmer ... i want the new updated module ... BTW i found this values: 'total_price_each' => '24.95' 'tax_each' => false 'weight' => '0.000' 'discount' => '0.00' 'subtotal' => '24.95' 'total_tax' => '0.00' 'total' => '34.90' those are correct ... there is just something need to be updated in the module and i dont know what, because i am not a programmer.

Hello bsmither, I am using Cubecart version 5.2.2 Can you please help me out to get this to work? Thanks bsmither i appreciate your help.

Hello All, I am having troubles using the CCNOW module. When you try to checkout with this module i get the following error: ERROR: 36: amount mismatch: 20.90 <> 10.95 This means CCNOW gateway only receive the product price and not the shipping price. I have sent an email to CCNOW helpdesk and i got the following response: The amount mismatch error is because the Cubecart shopping cart is sending "x_amount: 10.95" when it should be sending "x_amount: 20.90". 10.95 is for the product + 9.95 for shipping). This module may be out of date (it is not supplied by us). Perhaps CubeCart can offer support on this issue if you purchased the module from them? It is possible it is a setting in CubeCart, but I do not know their system. Thanks, -Matt CCNow.com So can any one help me to provide an updated CCNOW module? I already sent a support ticket to Cubecart, but so far i didnt receive an answer. Please share the right module with me if you can help me or smart coders help me out to debug? Thanks all!

Yes we use caching and the caching in Cubecart is different then Opencart. Opencart was also terrible, but when i bought a great cache mod it works fast and stable. Cubecart has caching enabled, but it doesn't cache everything like Oepncart did with the mod (the mod for caching in opencart was better and more compressed). I also bought a google speed module for cubecart, but Google until now still didnt response or approve our application and we are one week further so i can not test it yet if its improving or not.

Yes as mentioned above copy and paste from my hosting chat i had they will monitoring it now ... when it is happening again they will let us know. I dont know if you have experienced this with other customers or did a test by your self, but we have over 11.000 products with 40.000 images and around 600 unique visitors a day ... it might be a first stress test user with this kind of traffic / database / products ... cubecart might not build for this. Opencart was the same unless you buy mods and it works perfectly. However it has other big issues for us to look for an alternative. I like cubecart very much, because out of the box it has all features i am looking for without buying mods, but if its unstable it will become usless for us. Lets see what the monitoring will do ...

I am sorry, but i didnt understand your sentence ... could you repeat more clearly?

Opencart didnt have those problems as Cubecart is giving, so the hosting package is not the problem in here. I have a dedicated server with high hadrware specs and i pay a good price for it and it is a good hoster. However we didnt get problems with Opencart so the only thing i can think of is the software ... on the same hosting package with opencart and 5.000 more products it was FASTER and SQL was NEVER down. However opencart has other issues. Hosting specs: â—¦Intel Xeon E3-1230 V2 3.3GHz â—¦100 Mbps Uplinkâ—¦16 GB DDR3 Memory â—¦1 TB RAID-1 Drives â—¦10 TB Bandwidth â—¦Up to 5 Dedicated IPs Dedicated Linux LAMP server. Beside this i am a professional freelancer in Linux and Windows environments so technically i know what i am doing. I run webshops for my wife she is running them as a business. And BTW Magento runs smoothly i tested before, but didnt go for it yet ... if cubecart can hold it without errors and downtime i am very happy with Cubecart.

I am not even 48 hours online with cubecart after migrating from opencart and i got this: Warning: mysqli::mysqli() [mysqli.mysqli]: (HY000/2002): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) in /home/viviclot/public_html/classes/db/mysqli.class.php on line 22 Fatal error: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) in /home/viviclot/public_html/classes/db/mysqli.class.php on line 24 Contact with hoster: (9:46:35pm)marcello:Warning: mysqli::mysqli() [mysqli.mysqli]: (HY000/2002): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) in /home/viviclot/public_html/classes/db/mysqli.class.php on line 22 Fatal error: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) in /home/viviclot/public_html/classes/db/mysqli.class.php on line 24 (9:47:05pm)Josh H.:I am working on this for you.

(9:50:12pm)marcello:i can think of that myself .. but it doesnt solve my problem (9:50:18pm)marcello:i want to know WHY it happend (9:50:19pm)Josh H.:The mysql (9:50:28pm)marcello:for future prevention (9:50:38pm)Josh H.:There was a heavy load spike. (9:50:57pm)marcello:caused by .. ? (9:51:44pm)Josh H.:Traffic, it is hard to say, most likely traffic (9:52:40pm)marcello:i dont understand currently 4 visitors online (9:52:47pm)marcello:how can that take down my whole site (9:53:22pm)Josh H.:It is hard to say without a monitor watching we can install a snapshot if you like and if it happens again we will know exactly what it was (9:53:37pm)marcello:yes please do this! (9:53:41pm)marcello:i need to know (9:53:54pm)marcello:because if its happening again i still dont know why and i cant fix it Well soon we will find out if its the software (Cubecart) or not ... if so i want my refund ... reason why i stopped using Opencart was also too much downtime and checkout problems ... i swtiched also hosting providers so that was not the issue. I guess i am ready for Magento ...

Hello Bsmither, I love your afford and your help, but i am technical enough as a linux (LAMP) administrator what you are meaning. However ... i just think a script that is LOADING ALL IMAGES is not a good feature ... so even if you have a monster server or can pass the error with tweaks, mods and waiting half an hour to finally get your page loaded with 40.000 images is not a solution. The feature should be as mentioned above ... loading THE WHOLE DIRECTORY where ALL images are is just something i dont get why you ever want to program something like that. I know other carts have this as well, but if you buy from paid hosted shopping carts where those programmers focus on USER FRIENDLY then you wont have this. They all work in a way where you friendly upload your image and friendly automatic use the uploaded image without using all your memory or CPU power to load a script that kills your server. So for this statement: But, until we view the PHP error log, the web server error log, and the database server error log, we really do not know conclusively what to blame. I will blame the coding loading ALL YOUR IMAGES when you only need one image is just strange. Even if i have 100 GHZ and 256 GB ram in future i still think its a bad idea ... even if you have 5000 images or 3 billion ... i only need ONE image to use at the moment i uplaoded an image! Why do i want the system load all images? To select an image? Why the system doesnt auto detect the uploaded image and use it ... or why no search engine that shoes relevent images on search ... or why not just upload only and people can use the image using HTML and image source.

However ... thanks for the answers, but it doesn't really help. I can understand i can modify the script and let it execute 20 minutes or in future 2 hours ... but then you will understand i will just use FTP it takes 1 second ... i just don't understamd why programmers (Cubecart, opencart) decided to choose for "reading all images" script ... i think it is a waste for memory on system and it doesnt work fast for big shops. Uploading chosen image and use that image directly is more a logic feature ... but oh well ... if Cubecart doesn;t have this we need to wait one day we go for Magento anyway, but for now we stick 1 or 2 years with Cube.

I am dedicated ... so your statement is wrong. What if i have 1.000.000.000.000 images? you will still blame my server? I just think its not logic to execute a script to read images directory in ALL cases. just an additional feature (or permanent feature) to let the administrator or owner of the shop upload image to specific directory and just upload it ... without READING all images ... its not logic. Once it is uploaded it should automatically use that uploaded image for the action you are doing (for example in a WYSIWYG editor). Reading all images to select an image is not a good feature ... let the system automatic choose image that is uploaded or use a search feature so it will show only relevent images using your search engine ... this will IMPROVE a lot!
