I didn't see any partial white screen. On checkout, the payment option was gone. In the admin, the modules name is blank and I cannot enable it. I dropped the photo down, but there was no white...

Well, I installed Square web payments this morning and it seems to be working, so maybe I'll just leave this one dead on the roadside. I think bluehost did something, but they claim not to have. ...

I use Merchant E-solutions for credit card processing. I had issues with this previously when Bluehost upgraded my php version. In 2022 I had to upgrade to the new version of ZC to get things...

I don't doubt it! Precisely why I want to preserve what's working currently. Thanks!

Yes, just want to make sure it works before cutting over. I imagine I just need a square account first. Thanks for the info.

Newby question. I have a module for my credit card processor currently. They seem to be charging me more than what seems reasonable, so I'm looking for a new module. I was looking at paypal, but...

Ok, thanks. I will wait and see then try for the plugin. Thanks for the help!

hmm, ok. So far, I got into google with a "2" at the end of my business name, then created a txt spreadsheet and uploaded one product. I'm probably messing this up as I should have waited. Is the...

I'm getting invalid business name. I just started going through the steps to create my business account with them. I had to record a video of the street location, etc., and I need to wait a few...

Hi all,
Searching for approxiamtely my product on Google and it's the first hit. Lots of results in image search. But, on the shopping tap, zero. Can someone help me with the basics here? I...

Thanks, that fixed the image thing.

The front page image is specified in this file:

includes/languages/english/html_includes/responsive_classic/define_main_page.php

this file is just a...

Hi. I have recently upgraded to v1.57 and switched to this template. I have a photo showing up at the top of a product category. It is above the list of products and below the category name. It...

Ok, somehow PHP version got bumped up to 7.xx in the process, not sure how or when, but it works. Yeah, upgrade.

Ok, upgrade done. Seems like it worked. We'll see if it still does after the next php server version upgrade. I did all the work on the demo folder, then moved those files up to the top level. My...

Yet another question.

reading this on moving directories: https://docs.zen-cart.com/user/installing/move_cart/

When my test site is all fixed up and looking good, can I just remove the files...

Considering installing on top of 1.54 files is a nogo. I wonder if I can install on the 1.57 files, make a bunch of changes (images, text, logo), then re-install on those files. Thanks

Well, I tried and it did not work. The only thing that works is upload all 1.57, add one configure (with new db info) and then the install will show up. It will do php repair and then offer upgrade...

I was reading another similar thread, where GoldBuckle says:

“I started over and copied the old running site into the test directory then the 1.5.7 files into the same….”
Later he says:

“The...

Sorry, additional detail is the configure file i used was an existing one but i edited the db info and added the subfolder suffixs where needed to the urls. Thanks

Negative. I copied the db in myphpadmin. You select the db, hit operations tab and there is a copy option. This made a copy that looks identical. The export then import actions yielded a garbade...

I haven't touched the live site yet. Just working on the trial run. Had to stop working on it, will resume tomorrow.

So far, loading 1.57 files, then adding (correction) 1 configure file (admin...

where below?

I've got this many to date:

implementation guide
https://docs.zen-cart.com/user/upgrading/detailed_upgrading/...

ok, some progress. Uploaded 1.57 files PLUS 2 old configure.php files. Upgrade button magically appears! Database brought in, install done! Next will try modifications and see if the site...

GoldBuckle, did you get your upgrade to work? I'm looking at multiple sets of instructions and can't get it working. I can do clean install which blows away the old database, but can't get the...

Ok, now I'm trying these instructions:

https://docs.zen-cart.com/user/upgrading/db_only_upgrade/

*********

CRITICAL: Back up your site
CRITICAL: Backup your database
...

Ok, I redid the install with the new database that has all the data. Didn't work, still blanks. I go back into myphpadmin and the database is mostly empty! Customers zero, addresses zero, etc.

Ok, edit for the above.

I just googled "copying database" Turns out, there is this options under "operations" in myphpadmin. I created yet another new database and it appears to have all the...

I did the database backup per those instructions if that's what you mean. I followed them as best I could.

I did not see these options:

Tick “Complete Inserts” (helpful during upgrades if...

Ok, so again, how will I shoot my eye out if I ditch the old database? I have 22 products. About half I don't care about. A handful might have hyperlinks out there in the ether.

I can manually...

Same as my current one:

define('DB_PREFIX', '');

Yes, I redid the web install of zc and pointed it to the new database which is a copy of the currently used one. It had me setup a user and password. Both the new configure.php files have the new...

Well, I did that. backed up database, created new, then imported the backup into it. Installed zc into a new subfolder, pointed to new database... and blank. Nothing seems to have come in. Does...

Ok, thanks! I will try backing up the existing, creating a new, then importing the old into it, then installing a demo site with it. I really appreciate the help.

How do you do that? The instructions I'm looking at don't say as far as I can tell. Can I copy the database for use on the trial run, then repeat the process (if it works) when I do the actual...

Sorry, just want to be clear.

So, I will install the new site and in the install I will point to the old database? Then follow instruction in implementation guide: 6.2 Using zc_install to do The...

Sorry, I'm seeing two ways. 1. Do nothing, old database dies. 2. Update/import/?? the old database at some point. Is there a third method? Clearly, I'm not super versed on databases. Yesterday,...

I am planning to delete all the top level files and move in the "demo" files to the top level then install. I think I can change mostly images if the template still works and I'll mostly be there. ...

Thanks. I hope I understand to process. I've got the demo site installed. Next I will try to install my template (Westminster New) into that subfolder. After that I will try redoing the tweaks I...

Looks like, yes, treat it as new install. Seemed to work. Mod's feel free to delete this thread.

Hi, I'd like to upgrade my 1.54 site to 1.57d. I have some really noob questions here, sorry. I'm reading the implementation guide and it's not clear to me what I need to do.

I FTP'd all the 1.57...

Thanks all!!! I installed the latest CKeditor and it is fixed!! One more day of kicking the can down the road on updating the whole deal. Thanks!

CKeditor is there, which is I assume what I was using before.

I don't see where to turn it on or off. Maybe I can reinstall it. Thanks

v1.54 PHP is V5.6.40

Windows 10 if that matters.

I'm trying to add a new product and the editor bar is missing. I can't make text bold, insert hyperlink, etc.

Anyone know why?

I may have been looking at a different email header. I think this info is not right. I believe the headers are the same on both machines. I'm confused and frustrated. This is annoying but hasn't...

To clarify, the ZC component here is an email sent from ZC goes to spam but sent from the same email by me does not.

I powered up the PC and the test order that was not spam on the mac sure enough...

I never changed the source email away from the domain email until this issues came up. I switched to fastmail to try to fix it. Easy enough to switch back.

Fresh set of eyes today. I ran a test...

I'm not trying to blame ZC. Bluehost screwed me last time with a PHP upgrade, so I would suspect them. Spent a while with their tech support, pretty worthless. Carl, thank you for the excellent...

Well, I look at the raw message and here's what I see. The spam one is being caught by fastmail before it gets to my computer. The one I'm on now is win10 and the test order confirmation never...

I understand your observation, but I don't see how that would explain it working last week and not now.

ZC version, 1.54
Westminster New template
PHP Version: 5.6.40 (Zend: 2.6.0)

Last week all working fine. This week order emails go to Spam or Junk folder. I can't tell if outlook 2010...
