Further to my message above. here is a link to download what I consider to be a good example of how an app should work. I am sure there are plenty of ideas that could be combined to help everyone that uses cubecart. Can I suggest everyone downloads this to their phone, to see the power of a good app ! https://www.tobycarvery.co.uk/tobyapp#/

Websites rely on people coming to them to buy, so a website is a waste of time if few people don't come. Mailing lists are very "Old Hat" and allot of people don't like being bombarded with newsletters, then there is the problem of software thinking its spam unless you use a major provider for sending emails. So, we need new ways of tickling customers. I don't mind a phone app on my phone. I hate newsletters on my email. We have a local pub chain that has a great app, doesn't bombard people with stuff, but does always have a special offer available on the app, like 3 for 2, or free cake, or kids eat half price, its a more friendly way of getting business. Does anyone know of an open source app creation site, or does anyone have exp to create an app, at a sensible price so everyone can have a bite of the cherry ? I have alist of what I want, which is not far off what most people would want Regards

Hi Just trying to get some ideas about the modern way of getting a list of products to the customer, rather than waiting for the customer to come to the website. How do we go about sending a list of either new products, a whole category, or just a catalogue of all the items we have for sale. I guess this can be either sending everyone a pdf to read offline, maybe an app that displays only the items you tell it to show , eg new products. It has to be something that everyone can read while offline down the pub etc. I guess a mobile phone app would be a good idea. Any ideas from anyone ? Regards

Hi I am about to start a promotion to increase my newsletter members. I need to create a separate html landing page with text about why to sign up, which is not the problem. I need to mimic the foundation signup box at the bottom of the home screen, into this new page, change the background colour and text colours. Could someone please let me know what the code is I need to add to my html to make this work ? Thanks in advance.

Hi all. Can someone help me get the info, that should be somewhere on this site ? Which are the basic files I need to change in order to modify, say the basic template supplied. I know where the main template files are located, but I am a bit unsure about making changes to colours, text sizes, etc I presume these are controlled by CSS style sheets, or similar, so I suppose I need a basic teaching course on the basics of cubecart, and I presume this must be somewhere on the forum ? I can do basic PHP and obviously HTML, I just need some teaching about where and which files to change to modify the look ? Thanks in advance

How much for the plug in ?

Hi all, I have an existing cubecart instaion at for instance, www.abc.com/cart Can I install a second installation, with different content, at www.cart2.abc.com (In effect as a subdomain) without it affecting the first cart ? Thanks in advance

Hi I need to print a "Stocktake Sheet" , so that a man can walk round the warehouse counting stock. It needs to print out a category, listing product names in alphabetical order, of each item in that category, and nothing else ? or perhaps a current stock level . Any ideas ?

First class ! Thanks

Hi I am using the standard cubecart template, which displays the quantity discount table, to the right of "Specification". How can I display the discount table under the "Add to basket" and right of the product image ? Thanks in advance Regards

After huge amount of time spent researching this, and getting no support from Ebay, because nobody has been taught about the Development Centre, I have found an option to make a key set work, in order to access the ebay plugins for cubecart. NOTE : You must be capable of NOT keeping ebay data available to be stored, this is because Ebay wants you to delete customer data when one of their users request it ! So if you don't keep ebay customer data, you can "Opt out" of the Account Deletion Notification Set-up , because there is no data to erase, because you don't keep any. I hope this might help other users who want to access ebay data through API keys. I have spent many hours trying to find an answer, so if you see me, buy me a beer !

There must be someone on here that has activated the "ebay sales" or "ebay orders" plugin. Ebay now require that you either "Opt out" of storing personal data, or supply some information before a PRODUCTION key can be accessed. Does anyone know if you can simply OPT OUT, or does anyone know the details that are required to enter, before being able to access the production key ? Regards

Hi I have the ebay sales plugin. When registering with ebay developer, does the account name you create have to be the same as your ebay account name ? I am having problems creating an account as it comes back ....... "Your account registration was rejected due to problems with the data provided or other irregularities. If you believe this rejection is in error, please see our FAQs and Contact Channels page or work with your eBay representative directly." There is nothing in the FAQ, and you cannot access "contact" or "technical issues" untill you sign in. No Ebay representative can help because they have no contact to the Ebay Dev program. I can however create another dev account in a anme not associated with my ebay selling/buying account

Hi all, What's the easy way and quickest way of updating say x20 product images but keeping the same image name, that is the name of the image at upload? Regards

Great answer thanks ! If the above is true, then it would be possible to send the user via url from one website to mywebsite, to a page that only had the signup submit, and then resize the page to display this, with something like...... ('http://www.mysite.com/signup2',"My Window Name", "width=200,height=100") If that would work, then any idea what the code would have to look like on the page within mysite to make that work ? Regards
