I just have to say God Bless bsmither for being so helpful and kind in helping me restore my stores and sanity. I just don't know what I would have done without someone special like that crossing my path
Thanks Robsta for posting the link which may have been the problem as a new 3.0.20 had just been installed.
Thanks for being there guys ~ it means a lot
Blessings Always Lynn

I have been running 3 cube carts happily for the past few years. I had 2 stores on version 3.0.15 and one on 3.0.17 when I received a message from my host Lunar Pages to update the sites. I engaged someone to do the upgrades to version 3.0.20 for me and decided to change one of the stores that had a Goober sign in to see prices mod. So the person upgrading my sites requested the mod which was installed on the new store. Then the worst happened a couple of days later, some one hacked into my store now all my sites hosted with Lunar Pages are infected. 4 cube carts, 2 wordpress blogs and one soholaunch web site.
This happened before my eyes last Wednesday and Thursday and I immediately put in a help desk ticket to Lunar Pages, they originally got back to me with a list of infected files which look like jumbled text along with lots of references to the Mod. I am not sure what caused the problem.
Now Google has listed these stores with warning messages - when you go to EnchantedEmeraldForestBridal.com you get a big red sign saying waring stay away from this site as it may download bad things to your computer - it appears this has happened to all my sites and I don't know what to do!!!!
Please Help ~ I need some advice - what are your suggestions
I wondered if Lunar Pages could do a premium restore back to before my sites were hacked - but I don't know because they haven't got back to me.
Is this a common thing on the web?
My thoughts are to close down and delete every store and web site and start again - the reason is once they have been effected I think there may always be a problem is this a good idea? I am asking before I make any rash move, because it means getting rid of 5 years work.
Any advice would be appreciated Thanks

Hi there, I was putting some products in my store. I clicked on the little yellow image box which usually pops up another box that says browse server to choose an additional image to put into the description box. But when I clicked on it it was blank. There was a folder at the top and another folder down the bottom that says add new folder. I don't want to add a folder I just wondered how to fix this and get all the images back in the box? so I can add additional images to my page
I do hope you understand what I am trying to say and I would appreciate any help
Thanks emerald-fairy Lynn
I can answer my own question, just for anyone who may read this and ever have the same problem
It was something to do with Internet Explorer as when I changed to firefox, the fck editor box with all the images came up, so I was then able to put aditional images in my shop...but then the next time Internet Explorer worked ok...must have been a full moon!! :(

Dear-heart,
It appears you have the ftp working now, that's very good, but you have two things wrong. This seems to difficult and complicated I know, but it is only because it is new for you. This is actually quite easy and elementary, you just need a little basic knowledge and some practice. Please pay close atention as this is your answer . . .
What's wrong - you have a logo image named topHeader.jpg, but the logo image in Legend is a .gif by default, it is named topHeader.gif. Please, if you you can, save your logo image in the .gif format and name it topHeader.gif (pay attention to upper/lowercase letters here, too. Only the H is uppercase
)What else is wrong - you have put your new logo in the wrong place. I know it seemed right to you - you went to the images folder in the root of your store, but that is NOT where this logo goes. In the root of your store is a folder named images and in it is a folder named logos ( images/logos/ ) but this is NOT where your logo goes. I'm sorry, I know that can be confusing. Instead, you need to use your ftp and navigate not to images folder, but to skins folder, then to Legend, then to styleImages, then to backgrounds (skins/Legend/styleImages/backgrounds/) in there you will see an image named topHeader.gif - you need to drag your new image there to replace it. That is all you need to do. If you do that correctly, the new logo will show automatically.
guess what!! I did it..see you do learn something new every day!! , except it was a jpg not a gif for Legend. It's a bit big and I have to fix it but at least I got a banner up. Now can I change that grey background? Love from the learner and thanks for your Patience, it is appreciated Love Lynn

With all due respect, you seem to be fairly new to this sort of thing, why not go over to www.cubecart.org and look under communities, if you check out the communities there you will find one with some free skins and some amazing commercial ones, give it a check, I dont think you will be disappointed.

Hi there Burgensteen. I thought of doing that, but then how would I learn. I learn something new everyday and now I need a next step help. I managed to get the smart ftp to go to my site, I saw my files, opened up the images, draged over a logo I had renamed topHeader.jpg. Then I realized I had put it in images not in logos..so I did it again and put it in logos file I saw there was a file in there cc.logo.gif so now under that is my topHeader.jpg. The Next step I should imagine is to open the skins/legend/stylesheet/layout** file and change the logo from cc.logo.gif and put in my logo topHeader.jpg in its place. The thing I need help with is..do I drag that file** over to microsoft front page (easier for me then dreamweaver) to do the change and then drag it back and upload back to server? I hope you understand what I mean and any help would be appreciated. Thanks Lynn

About ftp, etc., http://www.cubecart.com/site/forums/index....showtopic=27445
About image sizes for stock logos, see this post (post is listed in pinned posts for this forum) that gives the image sizes for stock cubecart logo images
Sorry I posted in the wong place before
I have been reading and reading and still I am trying to figure it out. I read this about changing the logo, but how do I save it to this folder, where is it the folder? Is it something I have to do in smart fpt? How do I save my logo to this file? ------------------------------------------------------
First rename your logo to
topheader.gif
now save to this folder
skins\Legend\styleImages\backgrounds
The part in red is the name of the skin u r using eg classic/legend or killer

I forgot to say the Skin I have is Legend

Hello Again, well I want to change the logo from Cube Cart to my logo. I have read the tutorials and one says change your logo image name to topheader.gif another says .jpg one says topHeader (capitalH)
where do I save my image to, in my images in cube cart? or in images somewhere in C Panel? I don't go near C Panel much as I don't understand it
Now here is the real hard one. I have smart ftp and I presume I need that to change the logo, is that correct?
so the big question is how do I do that,
Connect with the Host Server (ftp.mydomain.com???) is that right
User Name; is that what my data base name is for that domain that has cube cart
Password; one I use to get into control panel in my server
Port standard 21
I asking all this as I need step by step instructions, not knowing FTP
I think thats all for this minute appreciate the help

Hi there once again I just had a look at that site and I do understand it, I just looked at how to change colour. I do know that all the places top bottom sides and category boxes etc..all I have to do (I think) is change all the blue codes to pink or green,
on my server there is a FTP thing, I guess thats what I have to learn to do use ftp next, then I can change the colour and the logo.
Thanks Lynn

Hi Lynn,
A link to your site, and knowing which skin you ae using would be helpful. There are three CubeCart stock skins, Classic, Killer and Legend.
You do not need to purchase a skin. You do need to learn a little bit about html and css, which is the simple language behind websites.
I recommend this site for help with html and css:
I have a cube cart shop (Legend) but of course I would like it to be another colour. I do understand about changing the colour in the css sheets and know a bit about html..so I will go now and look at the site you suggested..Thanks Lynn

Hi there, I love cube cart,
Now I would like it to be another colour other then blue. I would like Pink or Green so can I change the colour or do I have to buy a Skin from someone. If I buy a Skin from someone and cube cart does an upgrade later down the track would I loose that skin?
Also putting in your own banner logo, what is the best size for it to be? I have three banners/logos to choose which one would be best 750x175 204x106 174 x 51
Thanks Lynn :)

Hi everyone, Well I am new of course and have a few questions.
I want to change the default currency from USA dollars to Australian Dollars, actually I would rather just have Australian Dollars and nothing else, How do I do that?
I would like to have my own logo up the top and have read the threads, but I don't know much and not real interested in having to use a ftp program like smart to change it, can it be done manual or any onther way?
There is no provision for Direct Banking and we don't have all those other places in Australia, so can I add another payment method?
Same with the freight set up I just want to use Australia Post Express or Registered is there a way to add a another postal service.
I think that's all for this time
I await your reply and thanks

I deleated a bit of this message----
My Question is:
Do I /Can I upgrade to a newer version of Cube cart??
Can all my products be transferred over?
Can someone fix the skin I have or do I have to have a new on?
How much would this cost?
or am I better off bailing out and drop the whole shop all together
Any advice would be appreciated
Thanks
