Webshop Plus! v.3.2 for WWB8

Navaldesign · Post by **Navaldesign** » Wed Oct 02, 2013 2:08 pm

Although there are some generic thoughts about adding features, there is no plan for a new version yet.

Navaldesign · Post by **Navaldesign** » Sat Oct 12, 2013 9:14 am

Implementin Ideal is rather easy. You need to replace the code in the HTML box of the "thankyou" page, with the one provided by Ideal.

It goes by itself that you will need to replace, in the code, the absolute values that Ideal uses in its code, with the cart variables (value, description, etc)

There is no plan at the moment for un update to include Ideal checkout as standard built in feature.

Both your requests are possible, but of course some work is required to create and test.
The demo in the video is based on the Webshop Plus but the user that created it added the details fields in the "customer" page.
This is very easy actually, as the variables are stored as session variables, but you need to have some PHP knowledge.

However, from the video, I understand that someone from the German forum has modified Webshop Plus and has created a template available for download.
I have not been able to register in the German forum (somehow, the human verification field, where I should type the color of a lemon or a strawberry, would NOT accept my answer, thus I could not register), so I haven't been able to download the modified demo and check how it has been modified. You can try yourself.

As an easy solution, you can use simply an Iframe to display the cart content also in this page.
You can use an Iframe also to display the customer details.

If you make these iframes without borders and use the same page background, it will be very hard to tell that these appear in iframes and not in the page itself.
I'm not sure is there is going to be an update, I would preferably create a (free) cart similar to Webshop Plus but database driven, as many of the pro users (developers) here have asked for a cart that they can create at the start but then their customers can manage online, so I will probably go this way (whenever I have the time to).

Hi George,
I just uploaded all WB9 files as is (no changes to the pages), but the page shows nothing and I'm not sure why. I also uploaded all files as is to a different domain from a different hosting company and that too shows blank pages. Any idea why this is? They both support PHP. In fact, I'm using php contact forms on both websites.

The following page does show, but can't get beyond it.

Did you setup the backend ? especially the "Shipping to Countries" section.

jeff11214 · Post by **jeff11214** » Sun Nov 03, 2013 4:40 pm

Thanks.. was my mistake.

jeff11214 · Post by **jeff11214** » Mon Nov 04, 2013 3:44 am

Quick question...
You emphasize - Upload the entire "cart" folder, from your computer to the "root" directory of your site.

Will it be an issue to use a sub-folder as a testing environment. For example, root-directory/test-folder and upload everything to this location.
Reason for this is to not interfere with current website.
Then eventually move everything from the test-folder up to the root directory. I hope everything is relative paths.

Navaldesign · Post by **Navaldesign** » Mon Nov 04, 2013 6:52 am

To avoid mistakes (missing files) I suggest that you upload the "cart" folder as is, then rename it, on the server, to "test_folder" or whatever you like.

jeff11214 · Post by **jeff11214** » Sun Nov 10, 2013 2:47 am

Is it necessary to add the cart folder to robots.txt?

Navaldesign · Post by **Navaldesign** » Sun Nov 10, 2013 6:34 am

If you want to promote sales, it is reasonable to think that SEs should be able to find your product pages, so the answer is Yes.

jeff11214 · Post by **jeff11214** » Sun Nov 17, 2013 5:17 pm

I see the note To delete a product, change the quantity to be "0" and press "Recalculate" to remove an item from the cart, but is it possible to show a remove button beside every item?

jeff11214 · Post by **jeff11214** » Fri Nov 22, 2013 4:26 pm

Hi George,
I'm guessing this is not something which can be easily implemented.

Navaldesign · Post by **Navaldesign** » Fri Nov 22, 2013 5:33 pm

No, it is not difficult, and I already have it in my paid for carts.
But, implementing it, testing it, creating a new package (zip) and uploading on the server mighr require 2 - 3 hrs which at the moment I can't afford to spend due to personal work.

jeff11214 · Post by **jeff11214** » Fri Nov 22, 2013 7:23 pm

Thank you. I appreciate your response. Maybe in the future I'll look into your paid version.

thank you for webshop,
I think to use this card. Does the latest version 3.2 ?

Navaldesign · Post by **Navaldesign** » Fri Jan 17, 2014 6:25 am

Yes, 3.2 is the latest version.

Hi George, I think I read somewhere sometime ago that you charge for options for this extension.
Like what other feature do you charge for?

Thanks in advance.

Navaldesign · Post by **Navaldesign** » Sat Feb 15, 2014 11:20 am

For customization of Webshop Plus you can contact me through my site contact form.

bry · Post by **bry** » Sat Feb 22, 2014 6:43 pm

I just downloaded this and thought I could do a manual install of the extension via WB8. That didn't work.

Specifically, I clicked on Tools/Extension Manager/Manual Install. It looked for a *.wbx file and didn't find one.

What am I missing? Thanks!

Nevermind. I got it done.

thanks

bry · Post by **bry** » Sat Feb 22, 2014 8:00 pm

I have just put this on a website. Actually, I haven't tested it and I'm only using the following pages: products, cart folder with cart1, customer, checkout, custom_details, thankyou and thankyou1 (why the difference), error and cancel.

I'm not sure how to put a second cart on the same site. Do I need to put each one (with all of the pages mentioned) in individual folders?? I'm not sure how to put the cart folder in a folder. Or maybe I only put the second shopping cart in a separate folder. If so, do I need all of the pages I use in that separate folder - or are some of the pages common to both shopping carts.

Thanks, I hope that is clear!! I really appreciate you giving us a template for this. That made the first one pretty easy (even though I haven't tested it.

Thanks Naval Design. I've got to wait on your answer before I know how to deal with the second cart. Basically, this shopping cart has two different kinds of products.

To answer my own question, I think that I just use (like your sample) two different products pages. Is that right??

thanks

Navaldesign · Post by **Navaldesign** » Sat Feb 22, 2014 9:14 pm

If you need separate carts, you must install them in separate folders.

Please read the manual, it explains why you have thankyou and thankyou1 (as well as cart and cart1) pages.

Thanks NavalDesign. I will be reading that tonight!!

Is it possible to change the language on the order form for print. Do i made the changes in the php code ?
Thanks in advance.

Navaldesign · Post by **Navaldesign** » Sun Mar 16, 2014 2:57 pm

The backend is only in English as it would require too much effort and code changes to make it multilingual.

If you want to change the labels, you will need to modify the PHP code.

gevers · Post by **gevers** » Sun Mar 16, 2014 4:58 pm

Ok Thanks.
it is difficult to find the code for the confirmation e-mail to the customer.

Navaldesign · Post by **Navaldesign** » Sun Mar 16, 2014 6:35 pm

The confirmation mail labels can be set through the Admin area, no need to modify the code.

gevers · Post by **gevers** » Mon Mar 17, 2014 1:39 pm

Thanks, I need to translate the English terms into Dutch for the mail conformation.
I think thats the php form: dbts_includes/admin_mail_webshop.php.
But i can't find the text

Hello, this email is to confirm that your Order has been received.
Following details have been submitted:

Do i need to edit it els where ?

Navaldesign · Post by **Navaldesign** » Mon Mar 17, 2014 3:38 pm

You can edit the non-cart labels by double clicking the DBTS Form processor object in the "thankyou" page and editing the Admin mail and Autoresponder mail headers. Please read instructions in the DBTS Form Processor manual.

Also note that to be able to make amendments not only in text but also in font size, color and family, you must have installed the HTML Textbox and HTML Textarea extensions.

Hi Naval

I've been working on a WebShop_Plus_3_2 project for several weeks now, and it was coming along nicely. But since having updated to WB 9.4 yesterday, I am having problems. I thought maybe it was a conflict with one of the extensions I was using, but I tried the entire demo project in a new test site, and it just doesn't publish. The site URL is saying:

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log."

I even started all over again with a new .zip file and re-loaded the demo project, cart folder and Webshop_plus3 folder to my computer. I've tried everything - and this has only been since I upgraded to WB v9.4 yesterday. I had a WebShop project that was working, but after publishing it in WB9.4, it crashed.

I also couldn't find any specific instructions in the PDF concerning where the 10 files included in the webshop_plus3 folder should be uploaded on the server. Should they go inside the "cart" folder, or outside?

Thanks for your great shopping cart - and your help.

Navaldesign · Post by **Navaldesign** » Wed Apr 02, 2014 8:48 pm

The error you posted is usually due to wrong permissions of the folder or of a specific file.

Files should be 644 folders 755 (on UNIX - Linux systems). Check it.

Hi Naval
Checked them all - they're as they should be. I'm also having trouble with the installation not letting me log in to the back end with the "username" and "password", even on a new installation. As I said before, I had a project successfully loaded with WebShop that I've been working on for the past week - and after I upgraded WB yesterday to the latest version, suddenly the cart just crashed. I installed it again on a new test site - and even this new installation won't let me get into the back end.

Navaldesign · Post by **Navaldesign** » Thu Apr 03, 2014 6:10 am

I don't think this has anything to do with the WWB 9.4 update.
This MUST be a server issue.

If you wish, provide me your FTP details through my site contact form so I can check it directly on the server.

Hello, Is it possible to change the size of the productforms? Now the width is 523 high and 111. I try for example to change the width of form1 and form2 to 150 and 100 but it does not work.
I'ts on the product1.php page. In the example the products are in horizontal position i like the product presentation on the productpage vertical.
I Hope you can help me.

Greetz Gerrie

Navaldesign · Post by **Navaldesign** » Fri Apr 04, 2014 7:36 am

The product forms are simple WWB forms, so there is no limitation related to the size or layout of the form. Maybe you have locked the form object ?

gevers · Post by **gevers** » Fri Apr 04, 2014 10:01 am

Sorry, There was a text field with no text inside the webform. The width was 400, but you did not see that field.(no text)
Thanks for your reply.

Hi George

Really happy with the WebShop cart - thank you so much for all your efforts to bring it to us! I have a question, though. My shopping cart client has an item (a bonnet) that is available lined or unlined. The lined version costs $5 more - and I have figured out how to add that in the form's combobox dropdown menu as an option, and how to make the cart adjust the price accordingly. What I can't figure out is whether there's a way to also adjust the weight accordingly? Because I have set the cart to calculate shipping based on weight, and a lined bonnet is heavier than one that is not lined.

If there is no way to do this, I think I would create another page for the lined version of the bonnet - but then I wonder whether there's a way to make the "choice" for a lined version, within the original product combobox, direct the shopper to the "new" page? Do you have any suggestions?

I hope this makes sense.
Thanks so much for all you do!
randm

Navaldesign · Post by **Navaldesign** » Mon Apr 14, 2014 4:33 am

There is no easy (codeless) way to adjust the weight. Your easier choice is to create (even on the same page) two separate product forms, one for the lined and one for the unlined version. This way you can set the weight as required for each product.

I don't understand your second question. Whay would you need the combobox to redirect to the second product ? I mean, if you use separate product forms, and, even more, separate pages, you can simply have a link to redirect to the other page, or a bookmark, if the second form is further down to the page, no need for a combobox (the lined / unlined word can be part of the original description)

randm · Post by **randm** » Tue Apr 15, 2014 5:46 pm

Thanks for your suggestions! I was able to add a second form to the page without it looking too "complicated". Appreciate the help!

Webshop Plus 3.2 is very powerful and simple to use with standard WB order forms. The options for setting shipping charges are better than most paid applications I have used.

I am just finishing a website with very complex product order forms that have an unusual amount of options and pricing variables. Webshop Plus was the perfect solution to getting the orders to Paypal checkout.

Thank you Pablo for designing the core, and especially Naval Design for expanding the functionality and providing all the advice on using this app to its fullest capabilities. This truly is one of the best addons for WWB!

Product pages are built in WWB so you can type whatever you like, even a bilingual description, as well as prices in two different currencies. However, only one currency can be passed over to the cart.

Greetings!
I wish to say that the Webshop Plus v3.2 is awesome for its customizable features.
In trying to customize the delivery of order placed by customers, I found out that
3,000.00 appears in the "view order page" as 3.00 instead of appearing as 3,000.00
Please, I need your help, how do i make it appear as 3,000.00 in the view order page
under product/service description row of the webshop plus administrator panel?

visit http://www.kfi4allonline.com/shop/shopping_centre.htm and the administrator panel,
if need be.

Cheers, kfi4all
