do you have any recommendations for an shipping mod that is product specific? We have items that typically don't weigh a lot but are high dollar and need to be insured. We want to factor that in automatically, any thoughts? We have a large contrast some items cost $1200 and some $2.50 so I want to make sure shipping cost and item insurance is accounted four.

I am developing a sequential order number solution and it seems like the right thing to do to create it as a plug-in so it can be shared if it gets off the ground. i have requested a hook at the appropriate place throug github, but until that materialises (probably the wrong word for software) I would like to add a custom hook so I can enjoy the whole developer experience. Is it enough to copy a nearby hook,then paste it with an adjusted name into the appropriate place? Is there any other declaration required on the provider side? I have read that the hooks.xml file is an info-only document, so I believe I don’t have to update that for a personal hook. Gotta say the whole hook/plug-in/snippet caper is a work of inspired genius, probably just one rung below the recent synchronised Falcon 9 Heavy booster landings. Full accolades to the perpetrators. I plan to use it for all my mods. Russ

Under each product in a category list in the Foundation Skin, there is a grey bar. Does this have a function (as in under certain circumstances, stuff appears in it) or is it a decorative element?

My existing store uses sequential order numbers. The coding for this is relatively trivial. I would like a code hook added to the createOrderId method of order_class. How does one go about requesting such things? I am thinking of something along these lines: -----------------------------------------8<----------------------------------------- public function createOrderId($return = false, $set_basket = true) { // Self-explainitory really... $this->_order_id = ""; <!-- Call hook here --> if ($this->_order_id == "") $this->_order_id = date('ymd-His-').rand(1000, 9999); if ($set_basket) { $this->_basket['cart_order_id'] = $this->_order_id; /* fix for admin generated orders */ if (method_exists($GLOBALS['cart'], 'save')) { $GLOBALS['cart']->save(); } } return ($return) ? $this->_order_id : true; } -----------------------------------------8<----------------------------------------- And while we are in there, we can fix the spelling of "explanatory". Kill two birds with one check-in...

Hello, Thank you for your previous and quick help. I am still learning. I do sell some digital products as well as hard goods. Can I use Filezilla to upload those digital files or do each one at a time in filemanager? Thank you.

Hi All, I have a client who is using the Mican template however they want to add another menu that is the same as the vertical menu but they want an extra horizontal menu across the page with categories having their drop-downs if subcategories exist. The horizontal menu would be between the search and currency cart boxes. Has anybody done this and if so then could you please point me in the right direction as to what I have to change or insert to achieve the desired result Thankyou for any assistance best Regards, Peterp

I am coming up to speed on the runtime solution for CC.6. I have read the “literature” for developers regarding extensions and plug-ins, installed the example and visitor stats demos and it all makes sense. Snippets are nice. But... (you were waiting for that...) is there a solution for templates that mirrors the hooks for PHP? Is manual intervention the only solution? Thanks, as always, for your help. Russ

Hi, I've recently run into an issue where I set the product options matrix to a certain amount and the shopping cart is allowing items to be sold into the negatives. The option that says allow out of stock purchases is not selected. Any suggestions?

Hi, I've been trying to remove state/county from checkout form page, up until now all i had to do is change cubecart/validate.js file for state from true to false and it has been working fine, but when i change it now i get stuck on checkout page. When i hit the checkout button for few seconds it will redirect me to next page and jumps back. Also tried to hide it from checkout.confirm.php file but get same result. It would be really helpfull to resolve this, choosing from dropdown list makes customers not friendly experience at checkout. I'm using foundtation skin and also lookup address,county in UK is no longer required. Any advise will be appreciated.

I all dear Cubecart Family. My store is located in Florida, USA. the issue is: when Foreign country customers place an order and they usually use his billing addres and the shipping address FLORIDA,USA so, the cubecart must add 7% TAX by Federal Law but, it uses Billing address for ADD TAX or NOT. Please let me know how can I use Shipping address a Taxable option. thanks for help Best regards Ernesto hdvparts.com

Envisage, if you will, a CubeCart store that has a product with options. A customer opens the category, for example, Cats. A list of cat products are produced - Persian, Tom, Burmese, Mexican Hairless (yech) etc. I am in the midst of setting up a global criminal network, so naturally I select Persian and click its "Add to Cart". However, Persian cats come in colours, so there is a product option. The storekeeper angers the mighty criminal overlord by misrepresenting the function of the button. It is not going to "Add to cart" at all, well not yet. Clicking the button actually invites one to "Select product options". To pile insult upon insult, the product page opens with an angry red banner that effectively says "Hey bozo, you forgot to select the product option." To prevent all cat-monging CubeCat storekeepers from possible thermonuclear or biohazard retribution in the future, I propose that the button caption be changed, when appropriate, to Select Options, or if there is only one, which is probably the most likely case, "Select <optionname>" giving, in the kitty-case, "Select Colour" or for Western Pacific Coast types, "Select Color". Either solution will prepare the buyer for the upcoming option selection and obviate the need for the angry red banner. If the criminal overlord customer really is as dumb as a box of rocks, perhaps we could make the option selection field flash, pulsate or jump around to attract attention to itself rather than flash the red error sign. There is, of course, a language implication here, so the fancy version will require some thoughtful contemplation. "Select options then add to basket" is longish, but it creates an accurate expectation about the future. Of course, it does get one a multi-line button. I do like the idea of a custom "Select <whatever> and add to basket text though. Maybe a plug-in entrepreneur could provide this as a plug-in? Gotta say, though, the product options with option groups and stock level matrices is a damn fine thing.

Is it necessary to define allowed zones with PayPal Payment Standard? If I leave it as is, all countries will be allowed zones?

Hi, is there any way in the All in One Shipping Plugin to change the order of the rates something like the drop and drag in the admin category page. Also can an "edit all" feature be added? Thanks in advance, Claudia

The Question: Is there an existing solution for tax-inclusive pricing throughout cubecart? Prompted by: In the downloadable 6.1.13 store, the test product is priced at $6.99, the subtotal is $6.99, and the total is $7.69. This is un-Australian. Update Found the "Tax inclusive" flag in the product definition Pricing page. Background: I have been running a heavily modded 4.3.4 for far too long, and it is time to update. My store is like walking into a Dickensian haberdashery, which is charming in its own way, but the kiddies today demand polish and sheen and html 5 and good phone behaviour, and we must deliver. God forbid that they should discover what real life is like... To my great surprise, when I search the Cubecart fora for "tax", I find nothing. Either CubeCart's tax handling is perfect, or we are all avoiding it (boom-tish!) Here in the civilised paradise of Australia, there is a law that says that if you hand over the price marked on a product, it is yours. None of this "How much is it?" "Five pounds, guv." "Excellent, my man, I'll take it." "That'll be five pounds anna 'arf, guv" nonsense. We feed people to their worst nightmare out of sharks, spiders, snakes or murderous outback hitchhikers for that kind of behaviour. There were, in fact, actual riots about it when the government (which promised at the election before the election before the tax was proposed "We will never, ever introduce a GST" but explained after the more recent election that everyone, ob-viously knew that this meant "never, ever within this current term" - true!) surprised us all with the concept. We didn't really care how much we paid. We just really, really cared that we knew how much it would be. All retailers that turn over more than pittance must, by law, list tax inclusive prices everywhere that Joe Public and Mrs might see them, and also point out that $x.yx of GST is included in the total value of the invoice. Joe and Mrs accepted this as a fair compromise, furled up their banners, drank their Molotov cocktails and retired to the beer garden for some not-yet-craft beer. Anyhow, I sorted all this out in the 4.3.4 store by declaring that prices included tax all the way through the food chain. In the cart, export orders (i.e. for delivery abroad) had the tax shaved off all prices and the total. The scope of the change was limited to the cart itself - the tax is x/(100+x) (i.e. 1/11th) of the invoice total, and for export orders, all prices at 100/(100+x)th of the quoted price. Because of this tax-inc display, we calculate the tax-inc price then round it to the most appealing number (so naturally, the Test Product above will be rounded to .. $7.49? Nah, make it 7.99! However the tax is still 1/11 of the displayed price.) In a perfect world, customers that log in with an account that has an export delivery address by default should probably see tax free prices through-out, but if they don't want to live in the land of sunshine, surf and sharks then they can just be pleasantly surprised by the lower prices at the end. Has this sort of thing made it into cubecart these 8 years hence? I cannot see a setting labeled "Prices are tax inclusive", but it may be labelled something else.
