  1. It is not allowed to promote third-party modules here; a direct link is not possible. http://www.cubecart.com/site/forums/index....showtopic=27364
  2. We are not allowed to promote third-party modules here. You may check out http://cubecart.org/ which contains a directory with some third-party modules. Also, if you contact the site administrator for the site you found, he can tell you where to find such a module. His is a CubeCart site. You might also try searching google for: cubecart in-house affiliates and vendors
  3. In your ACP left side navigation, under Store Config click on Currencies; you will surely find that exchange rate for USD is set to 1.000, in other words, 1 to 1 ratio. You need to edit this, and set the GBP to 1.0000 instead <_<
  4. Well, you can figure this one out easily. Look in the root of your store. Open these two files with a text editor, and compare the contents: index.php cart.php These are the php files that correspond to gloabl/index.tpl and global/cart.tpl
  5. No problem, happy to assist :)
  6. This post has been edited. In it originally I had expressed my frustration with people's impatience here and multiple posing of the same questions. This question was answered in skins forum.
  7. Illustrating my point in another of your threads. Now, both Robsta and I have replied to your question, but in two different threads :)
  8. 1. OPEN skins/XX/styleTemplates/content/index.tpl using a text editor 2. FIND this code: <!-- BEGIN: latest_prods --> and near the end of file, <!-- END: latest_prods --> 3. SELECT and CUT everything between those two tags, including the tags themselves! 4. PASTE all this code just below the tag, <!-- BEGIN: index -->
  9. hmm, which CC version are you using? This class was added in either 3.0.13, 3.0.14 or 3.0.15 .latestProds { float: left; text-align: center; width: 131px; height: 120px; } If you are using 3.0.15 and don't see it, it may be because you have a custom skin that had been based on an earlier version. Anyway, you can add the class yourself. Look in skins/XX/styleTemplates/content/index.tpl and find this code which creates an individual box for latest products: <div style="float: left; text-align: center; width: {VAL_WIDTH}px;"> You should find that code or something very similar. Now, replace that code with this: <div class="latestProds"> Now, place this code at the end of layout.css: .latestProds { float: left; text-align: center; border: 1px solid red; margin-left:10px; margin-bottom: 10px; width: 131px; height: 120px; } The red margin is simply to help you see the box that contains latest products. Adjust margins, width and height to align the boxes as you see fit. If you want to use a background image on the division to make your container boxes look like the ones in your example, add it in the appropriate manner (check how other background immages are added in this stylesheet elsewhere). Once you have moved the boxes around, adjusted sizes, margins, etc. you can delete or comment out the line that makes a red border. Have fun :)
  10. It may simply be that you are very young and do not understand how forums work. Otherwise you might see the sense in NOT clogging the forum's web space with multiple questions from one person, as it is already difficult enough to sort through everything here to find useful info without adding to thhe clutter. Also, what if someone responds to yesterdays question and someone else responds to todays, etc. what is the purpoase of having answers to you scattered everywhere instead of in one topic? Did you read the pinned post, "PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE POSTING" . . . ? It is pinned at the top of this forum. Thank you for the apology. Please read my question again, I asked if you saw anywhere in the feature list for CubeCart, as listed in features on the main website, that this software can open spreadsheets. I'm sorry, but either you were told wrong or you misunderstood. This is not possible in the manner you intend. ---------------------------------------- Most of this is misunderstanding, we need to communicate clearly. It is possible to populate the database from a csv file or a tab-delimited file that can be generated by a spreadsheet program. You have to get that information into the database, though. You can't do this through the CubeCqart software at present. To do it, you have to use a MySQL management software, like phpMyAdmin. You need to ask your webhost about this. Another option is to use a third-party software designed for managing the database for ecommerce by uploading products to CubeCart database. These cannot be promoted at this site, and have to be purchased from third-party providers. There are a couple members here, Saztar and Sir William who know alot about this. If you are looking for forum posts that can help you to do it yourself, search for terms like "import products" or import csv Finally, you can learn alot about this by reading in the lengthy pinned post about backing up the store database :)

    Very nice, Rob. I have to agree on the one criticism, too many different fonts there. On the other hand, serif-style fonts may be cool, because practically every web site uses sans-serif fonts. Using a nice serif font can set your site apart a bit if they are used tastefully. The big problem here is that I see too many different fonts on the page to count Great job on your layout and artwork
  12. Well, I don't know your terminology. "placed in cells" does this mean you want to code it as a table? I am thinkinng you probably just mean that you want it to appear in boxes as shown, with borders, etc.? The products are placed in divisions which float to the left in CubeCart. You can use CSS style the divisions and you could make the boxes to be a background image on that division - or you could code a box top image and box bottom image and use borders on the side of center division. There are many ways to accomplish this. In the latest versions of CubeCart, I think 3.0.13 and up, there is a division class named .lateProds or something very similar to be found in skins/XX/styleSheets/layout.css, this is the division you should be working with.
  13. damn, you're right, these same questions were posted yesterday Well, I'm inclined to ignore them because you are spamming with the same questions. Evidently you think it is the way to get a response. When no one answers your questions, try not to take it personally. We are all volunteers in a community here and no one is obligated to answer any questions, and no one appreciates spamming the forums with the same topics posted repeatedly. This particular question makes no sense. This is a CubeCart forum, not an accounting forum, and I have no idea what you mean about opening a spreadsheet in CubeCart. Please read the list of features in CubeCart, do you see anything there about opening spreadsheets? :)
  14. 1. Purchase new webspace 2. Install CubeCart on new space 3. Take a backup of old database (SQL dump) read the pinned post about backing up db 4. Populate the new shop database with your backup 5. Copy the images folder from your old site to the images folder of new site 6. If you have customized a skin, copy the skin folder from old site to new site These are the main steps, information on how to do each one of those steps can be found in the forums. You will also need to find out the nameservers for the new webspace and change the nameservers for your domain names. Domain names are a separate subject from CubeCart, so you won't find info about that here. If you got your domain name through your present webhost, and the new server is with a different webhost, and you know nothing at all about domain names, well, you need to find a host for your domain name, it could be your new webhost or (preferrably I think) a third party. You can also find service providers you can hire for all this if you desire. Look for them at http://cubecart.org
  15. Wow, thanks for the encouraging words BTW, in response to Reb_76 and lordbarron, I have reverted to the 60kb header which is a little more sharp in focus than the 30kb version was.
  16. There are two free download mods. One requires the "prod" to be added to basket and requires peopole to register in order to download. The other does not require those two things, it causes a download link to simply appear on the page when prod price is zero - no registration, no add to basket. If you have trouble finding and comparing these two free mods, send me a PM and I'd be happy to guide you. For Vrakas' suggestion, this can be done when adding a product or writing a site document. You will be using the rich text editor in CubeCart (that is the window you type into when adding a product of site document). Adding a link to your PDF file is pretty easy. 1. First you just type a name for the link, example: "download the manual" 2. Next, highlight (select) that text by dragging the cursor 3. Then, click the "link" button inn the editor toolbar, it looks like a chain 4. Now, paste the full URL (web address) to your PDF file, example: http://www.example.com/manual.pdf
  17. That sectionj of code may be a little difficult to deal with, depending on your skill, but this thread will answer your question; if you read the whole thing, you will learn which two files to look in. http://www.cubecart.com/site/forums/index....showtopic=27254
  18. Thanks John, glad you got it working :)
  19. $box_content->parse("links"); So then, does your links.tpl file start like this: <!-- BEGIN: links --> and end like this: <!-- END: links --> ? I suppose it doesn't [XTemplate] parse: blockname [links] does not exist
  20. post the code for your links.inc.php here
  21. LOL! Well, topic says apparel and fashion, but all the products I saw at homepage were adult toys! I have commented already in skins forum about your site. I like it because you have been creative with the design graphics and because you are sharing with the community step-by-step as you learn how to do the revisions. I find some negative things that need mentioning: 1. The constantly rotating favicon is awful, I hate it enough to avoid your site. 2. The upper white text, as in session box, is barely visible. You need some contrast there. 3. The copyri9ght text at bottom of page looks a little off, you have some background problems there. I am viewing in FireFox 2, and only looked at the index page thus far. Overall, good job, keep it up. You will only continue to make it better, I'm sure :)
  22. I am in the minority, I hate the commodo thing, for two very good reasons IMO, 1) javascript, and 2) invalid code: Result: 11 errors / 1 warning line 1 - Error: no document type declaration; implying "<!DOCTYPE HTML SYSTEM>" line 46 column 6 - Error: end tag for "HEAD" which is not finished line 48 column 17 - Error: there is no attribute "LEFTMARGIN" line 48 column 31 - Error: there is no attribute "TOPMARGIN" line 48 column 47 - Error: there is no attribute "MARGINWIDTH" line 48 column 64 - Error: there is no attribute "MARGINHEIGHT" line 49 column 26 - Error: there is no attribute "HEIGHT" line 49 column 86 - Error: there is no attribute "BACKGROUND" line 65 column 8 - Error: required attribute "TYPE" not specified line 71 column 110 - Warning: cannot generate system identifier for general entity "v_search" line 71 column 110 - Error: general entity "v_search" not defined and no default entity line 71 column 118 - Error: reference to entity "v_search" for which no system identifier could be generated line 71 column 109 - Info: entity was defined here As to the first, I can live with it, as CubeCart needs js to work and most people browse the web with IE and just accept all js by default, this is not such a terrible biggie. However, I cannot stand the invalid code that is produced by the commodo frame. On the bright side, most of your customers probably don't care that your site is full of invalid code and there is also an element that will be impressed by the ever-present corner graphic, so though I personally despise this commodo thing, it might actually help increase your sales. In addition to the 11 errors caused by this commodo thing, your site homepage itself has 22 errors in the code: Result: 22 errors / 1 warning line 47 column 81 - Error: there is no attribute "onClick" line 227 column 408 - Error: end tag for "img" omitted, but OMITTAG NO was specified line 227 column 292 - Info: start tag was here line 243 column 14 - Error: document type does not allow element "p" here; missing one of "object", "applet", "map", "iframe", "button", "ins", "del" start-tag line 453 column 101 - Error: required attribute "alt" not specified line 538 column 84 - Error: there is no attribute "onMousedown" line 539 column 21 - Error: there is no attribute "width" line 539 column 42 - Error: there is no attribute "onSelectStart" line 539 column 56 - Error: element "ilayer" undefined line 540 column 21 - Error: there is no attribute "width" line 540 column 40 - Error: there is no attribute "onMouseover" line 540 column 98 - Error: there is no attribute "onMouseout" line 540 column 112 - Error: element "layer" undefined line 546 column 27 - Error: there is no attribute "onClick" line 559 column 20 - Error: the name and VI delimiter can be omitted from an attribute specification only if SHORTTAG YES is specified line 563 column 20 - Error: the name and VI delimiter can be omitted from an attribute specification only if SHORTTAG YES is specified line 567 column 20 - Error: the name and VI delimiter can be omitted from an attribute specification only if SHORTTAG YES is specified line 571 column 20 - Error: the name and VI delimiter can be omitted from an attribute specification only if SHORTTAG YES is specified line 575 column 20 - Error: the name and VI delimiter can be omitted from an attribute specification only if SHORTTAG YES is specified line 579 column 20 - Error: the name and VI delimiter can be omitted from an attribute specification only if SHORTTAG YES is specified line 583 column 21 - Error: the name and VI delimiter can be omitted from an attribute specification only if SHORTTAG YES is specified line 589 column 68 - Warning: cannot generate system identifier for general entity "docId" line 589 column 68 - Error: general entity "docId" not defined and no default entity line 589 column 73 - Error: reference to entity "docId" for which no system identifier could be generated line 589 column 67 - Info: entity was defined here Most of this is not very serious, and your designer should be able to straighten it out in a matter of minutes. Overall your site is very nice and shows a flare for creativity. Good work, hope sales continue to improve.
  23. You have covered all the steps (it appears) but you need to get the info in global.inc.php right. For the db error, it is of utmost importance to get the following in there correctly: $glob['dbdatabase'] = ''; $glob['dbhost'] = 'localhost'; $glob['dbpassword'] = ''; $glob['dbprefix'] = ''; $glob['dbusername'] = ''; dbhost is very important, this is often going to be 'localhost' but not always, check your db and ask youir webhost if necessary. database name, username, password are also very important. If all this is correct, you should be able to connect to db.
  24. It dawned on me that Vrakas had actually posted a link to the free legal documents page that many of us used a couple years ago, so I looked in his post Most Common Problems and Questions, almost all Answered Here . . . And the link was there, "free legal documents," but the link is bad now :)
