  1. OSC doesn't suck. there are hundreds of satisfied users. Any developing software has its quirks or 'bugs'. In my opinion what makes Cube Cart unique is its templating system which makes it easily customized by anyone using it. My experience with OSC was a negative one due to the lags in response time to questions about using the software. Here you will find answers in the shortest time possible and it's a learning process when you are a part of an expanding universe of knowqledge. Our developer is right here along side. I suggest you hop on over to cubecart.org and browse the free and commercial mods and skins. Like any software, you have to be cautious with what you modify, but if you back up beforehand you'll be fine. Install the cart and give it a ride and welcome aboard.

    Shopping Cart

    Can you explain please or give us a URL
  3. You can add these in your skins/Killer/styleTemplates/global/index.tpl just add the image source something like this: <div align="center"><a href="http://www.whatever the link is.com></a><image src="http://www.your website/image name"></div> Place the code wherever you want the image to appear. The first part <a href= is the link part and the second part <image src is the path to your image. You can upload the image to the root of your store and link to it that way. I hope this is clear because it's hard to teach someone html code like this.
  4. should this be $glob['rootDir'] = '/home/users/web/b2987/pow.aex/httpdocs/store';
  5. It seems as though the tax issue should be resolved at the Pay Pal end.
  6. You have a path problem here. Who designed this site and integrated Cube Cart? Look to them for your answers.
  7. what lies between <head> and </head> on your site is a mess and may be causing IE problems. Your quote marks on what appear to be duplicates of individual keywords should be eliminated and your keywords are stacked instead of comma seperated as in this partial example: mikimoto cultured pearls freshwater cultured pearls akoya cultured pearls south sea cultured pearls black cultured pearls rose quartz crystals rose quartz rose quartz jewellery rose quartz ring rose quartz necklace They should be in a line like this: mikimoto cultured pearls,freshwater cultured pearls,akoya cultured pearls,south sea cultured pearls,black cultured pearls Get rid of the ones with quotes like these: "cultured pearls" "mikimoto cultured pearls" "freshwater cultured pearls" "akoya cultured pearls" "south sea cultured pearls" "black cultured pearls" Also you have w-a-a-a-a-a-a-y too many keywords. You want 30 tops. if you think you have problems with Internet Explorer, wait until Google sees this. They will regard it as keyword spamming.
  8. The site is looking very good. A couple of things to note: think about changing the default sub cat image from the blue folder to something a bit more interesting terms of use is too long. do you expect anyone to actually read it? I think this site is perfect for a membership subscription and the sale of information proprietary to its members. I would offer free sign ups and access only to members of information they can get nowhere else.
  9. add it to index.tpl and cart.tpl before the last </body> tag
  10. You mean adding documents other than the default ones? Did you add them from admin/site documents?

  12. Open skins/your skin/styleTemplates/content/reg.tpl It's in there
  13. Changing the “Homepage†links is very easy, involving only minor changes in two or three files. You will need a basic familiarity with editing text files and with finding and uploading/downloading these files to and from your website. It is important to keep a copy of all store files on your PC, in case you ever need to restore the entire store. I recommend doing this, as you also have immediate acces to files you need to alter from time to time, and only need to upload the altered files to the website each time. Files to be Altered: language/xx/lang.inc.php includes/boxes/cart.inc.php skins/xx/styleTemplates/boxes/categories.tpl (Note: Change the xx above the language abbreviation, and skin name, respectively that is appropriate for your store.) 1. Homepage Link in Categories List on the Store Homepage To change this link, OPEN skins/xx/styleTemplates/boxes/categories.tpl FIND this code: Classic or Legend skin: <li class="bullet"><a href="index.php" class="txtDefault">{LANG_HOME}</a></li> Killer skin: <td class="topCatsTabMid"><a href="index.php" class="txtCat">{LANG_HOME}</a></td> REPLACE index.php with the new link you wish to point to, example http://www.mysite.com SAVE the file and UPLOAD the altered file to your webserver. 2. Hompage Link in Useful Links box on the Store’s Cart Pages To change this link, OPEN includes/boxes/cart.inc.php Please note that the code 'link' => "index.php", appears elsewhere in this file, but you need to change the one in the block above that calls for ‘homepage’ from the language file. Again, you simply replace index.php with the URL that you want the link to point to. SAVE the file and UPLOAD the altered file to your webserver. 3. Do you wish to change the text, “Homepage� If you also prefer to change the text “Homepage†so that it says “Home†or something else, you will need to alter the language file. This is the best method of making it consistent on both the store pages and the cart/registration pages. To change this text, OPEN language/xx/lang.inc.php At around line 1464 FIND the code: 'homepage' => "Homepage", PLEASE NOTE that this code appears more than once in the file, and the line number will probably be very different for you . . . You need only change the code that appears below the section $lang['front']['boxes'] = array( and change only the part shown in red above! Change Homepage to whatever you want the text to be for your new links. SAVE the file and UPLOAD the altered file to your webserver.

  15. Can you post the contents of your includes/global.inc file
  16. There is a free tutorial at cubecart.org that explains how to change the index.php site wide
  17. roban

    Google base?

    Works fine in Fire Fox for me but whatever floats your boat.
  18. To add your own information to the bottom of the index.tpl you can add something like: <div align="center"> your text or link</div> before the last </body> tag You can add an image to the About Us document from your admin control panel/site documents. Just use the fckeditor image control.
  19. Look in layout.css #subCats { background-color: #EBEDFE; text-align: center; border: 1px solid #C9CEFC; margin: 0px; padding: 3px; float: left; width: 387px; } .subCat { text-align: center; padding: 8px; float: left; width: 110px; } I don't know of any 'capping' code but I do know the width of the box will determine how much text will fit.
  20. Yes I did all that Al. I'm thinking my database got changed somehow through a mod perhaps but I checked the structure against a virgin database and it seems to be fine. Can you tell me what 2 queries? Is it cat_id and what else? Also does cat_idx play a role in this?
  21. It would be very helpful to us in helping you if you would PLEASE provide the URL of your sites. Without it we cannot help you.

  23. Try changing permissions in your language/en/home.inc to 777 then after editing change it back.
