    5.0.8 Lite - really just a demo?

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    I can see where you are going here. I Would not have used CC if there was not a free version 3 which easily installed from Fantastico. I subsequently bought te copyright removal key. But this lie version is not in the same league. You would have done better having a true lite version. Limit the features, and the number of products (5 perhaps) but not the number of orders or users. By all means paste 'cube cart lite' all over the screen - and possibly some Adwords!

    Let people use your product - don't restrict it. Perhaps then we will get a community around CC again. As it is, it looks like it is dying a slow death.

    Product Roadmap? Where is CC going?

    At this point I don't even know if the developers are interested in further developing the product or are just in cruise mode on v5. Will there be a v6? Who knows! Certainly all the main talented mod developers seem to have gone AWOL while competing carts seem to include loads of those features for free.

    I don't want to move - i'm comfortable with CC and it suits my needs - but i've been stuck on v3 for a long time now because some essential mods I use have not been updated. At least give us a glimmer of hope for the future! Or should I take the pain of migrating to something else now rather than later.

    No response from Devellion?

    Come on guys - I like CubeCart and would like to continue using it - but it seems that you have lost your heart - and so have many mod writers which made CC the kind of product we want to use.

    Where are we going? How about some nice new features? I know they are difficult to develop - but why not consider buying or licensing them off of existing mod writers and making them part of the supported base product (even if a small incremental fee is payable)? Things like postcode shipping options would be a good addition!

    Is there a rough roadmap for CubeCart so we have an idea of where we are going with the product?

    I'm hoping to upgrade from v3 to v5. What is delaying me is an essential shipping mod to be ported from v3 to v5 - shipping by zone/postcode. It is taking ages for the developer to finish (i'm not even sure if he has started). There is another option - from Estelle - but she seems to have abandoned her mod business in favour for motherhood. Nothing wrong with that of course, but it does leave customers in a bit of a bind.

    What is happening with CC right now then? Are you working on CC6 - or how about adding more features - like the ones we see in the mods - to the standard product?

    I'm happy with CC and don't want to move to another cart. Not only is it a big job, but it is disruptive to my customers too.

    Thanks for your attention!

    Shipping by Postcode

    Daimonsoft had a shipping by postcode module for CC3 which I am still using and very happy with.

    They are working on making it CC5 compatible - but it is long long overdue.

    Perhaps if you e-mail them they might encourage them to hurry up :)

    There is an iphone/smartphone cubecart skin available ( v4 only) and it will be released for v5 soon. I can't post the URL because it is commercial skin. Google it.

    I did find one (and I suspect the one you are referring to) - but with a copyright removal costs more than Cubecart itself!

    Pricing is relative to the time it takes to develop and likely quantity sold to make it worth while doing.

    Quite true - but quantity sold is also relative to the price - just look at how many $0.99 or £0.59 iPhone apps are sold!

    I think mobile functionality will become the norm for all web based apps in the near future. I would not be surprised if Devellion come up with something in a future release.

    Any chance of a mobile template/skin for v5?

    Best to ask over at www.cubecartforums.org

    With mobile internet becoming so ubiquitous - I would have thought this is something that Devellion should have on their roadmap.

    Paypal Order Failed on return to cube cart FIX !!!!�

    in Technical Help

    Posted

    As Estelle says - this seems to be due to paypal not notifying the store before the customer gets back the store.

    I'm wondering if it might be a good idea to put a 10 or 15 second delay at the beginning of 'confirmed.php' to give Paypal a chance to update the cart.

    Does anyone know the best way to achieve this?

    Would this be OK?

    <?php

    // sleep for 10 seconds

    sleep(10);

    ?>

    Does v4 suffer from v3 IPN timing issues?

    in Technical Help

    CubeCart 4 code doesn't show ORDER FAILED once IPN call delay but a neutral message like:

    Thank you, your order has been placed. Payment may or may not have been taken yet. You can check the status of your order via 'Your Account'. You should also receive updates via email.

    Ah ok, so as soon as the IPN notification comes through to cubecart - it will update the status?

    I'm wondering if I could do this with CC3 too?

    weird characters bottom of index.php

    in Technical Help

    Posted

    Looking at v47.co.uk, I see some messed up coding and wherever there is a closing body tag, there is the strange characters (happens twice on this page).

    This led me straight to the parseDecode function.

    There has been a change to PHP's base64_decode function. See here:

    http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=47174

    So, the variable $lkParsed needs fixing.

    Testing with several on-line base64 decoders, I get:

    ASPX: "Invalid character in string. No output."

    Pearl: </body>

    ASP: </body>Âö‡FÖÃà

    PHP(4.4.2): </body>

    As an experiment ONLY (until Devellion fixes it in the manner they wish), open file:

    /includes/session.inc.php, at the end of the file, change

    "PC9ib2R5Pg==PC9odG1sPg==" to "PC9ib2R5Pg==".

    Ok, my host upgraded to PHP5 also and I started seeing this. I made this change and it appears to have fixed it but for the life of me I can't figure out what this does! :-)

    Is there any chance of it affecting other parts of the cart? What do those hieroglyphics do?
