A month later, any possible update?
I am not in a rush and it is not an essential feature, but it would be nice to have.
I am glad there is a way. I didn't know about that. Luckily, the workaround worked, but this would have been easier!
Thanks!
I am not sure if that is a solution but this worked for me:
- I created an invoice on Stripe for the price of the purchase the customer wanted to buy minus $1
- the customer paid the invoice using...
I have a customer who used to use a card number (call it "old"). That card has been replaced by a "new" one, that works fine outside of my store.
On the checkout, even though she enters the "new"...
With the help of my host, we have been blocking some IPs that were in the store by the hundreds. Now, it is down to about a dozen, so it is manageable. However, is there anything else I should/could...
I am in touch with my host and here is what they say:
At this time, there are around 400 bots in the store, and it is under maintenance. Any other suggestion?
Yeah, they are still coming in!!!
Are the bots supposed to disappear? They are still "in the store". And they have multiplied since I posted in the first place!
By putting it under maintenance? For how long?
I have removed the Gift Certificate option from the store.
I have updated PHP which now shows PHP Version: 7.4.33
I tried 8.0 but I got a blank page so something must not agree with it (i will have...
I am so not that techy with ZC. Upgrading means outsourcing it since there is no one-click upgrade like Wordpress, right? I have done it myself once, and it took me 2 weeks (and a super long thread...
Yes I do (I probably should remove them as they are rarely purchased).
Zencart 1.5.7c
PHP : in the backend of the store, it says PHP Version: 5.6.40 but on my host it is 8.0
By the way, today,...
I have noticed, in recent weeks, that when I check the Who's online, there are dozens of "customers" with a cart, and they all have different numbers of "Gift certificates" but they don't have names...
Yikes. That is scaaaaaaary! Especially with an error!
I have been adding digital products almost every week for over 12 years now so I do have quite a large store. Even my regular customers tend to discover something "new" regularly. To help them, I...
For me, the customer buys ONCE and that is all. I extended the download duration to 6 months but if requested (since I use a module that will tell them if you have already purchased it), I will reset...
Nevermind. The customer emailed me telling me that "in order to be safe", she downloads her 5 files and saves them to an EHD.
I guess she does not understand the principle of copying/pasting a...
One customer emailed me wondering why she is getting a message that says she has no more downloads, while she just purchased the product.
I checked in the backend, and sure enough, it shows that...
I had an update to a digital product last week. Since I didn't know how to reactivate all the downloads at once, I reset them, one by one (I had over 50 instances). Then, I sent an email notification...
What if the download HAS expired? What would be the simplest way for me to reactivate it for dozens of customers? I am just facing that situation for a file that was several years old!
I have digital downloads only, and occasionally, one file will be updated. I want to send a notification to all those who have purchased it, but once I do that, most of them have their download...
I wonder if anyone has used that so I can see what kind of phrasing is commonly used?
Thanks for that. I will study it attentively!
For many years, it is not allowed to automatically subscribe a customer to our newsletter when they make a purchase. So, since that rule was implemented (maybe about 10 years ago), I had to check the...
It SHOULD autorenew but somehow, something is not working correctly it seems. And even then, 2 days before the "expiration", I did run the AutoSSL, which I thought would address that but obviously,...
Something must have been changed. Those AutoSSL, and SSL, and others seem so confusing (and they didn't seem too clear either!).
It is now working correctly, so hoping it won't repeat itself in 3...
I have not changed anything on ZenCart so I am not sure what I should set it to that would differ from what it is now.
The same thing happened today, one day after the SSL expired. I tried the same steps as before but it does not work.
I contacted my host and they wonder what would the error mean:
" ERROR: Failed...
I'll check, but thanks for the hint.
As for the full address, you are right that it is needed for credit card payment, so i'll have to leave it there.
It looks like it was already set up like that, yet a customer emailed me complaining I was asking for too much information for a digital download. I guess it was not obvious to him that the phone...
Oh... good question. I only added Stripe this year and I don't think I ever needed it for Paypal. I'll double-check.
I know this is a long thread and MAYBE my question is answered but it might be faster to ask here. Is there a way to disable or completely remove some unwanted fields? I only sell digital downloads...
I finally solved this issue which had nothing to do with Zencart, even though it was the first symptom I saw.
For information, here was the issue:
- my site is using an SSL from Cloudflare yet,...
OK, trying to send an email that way, I get errors:
ERROR: Failed sending email to: "Cassel Cassel" with subject: "Testing emails from the store" SMTP connect() failed....
That is what is puzzling. Nothing else is happening with my emails. I can send and receive emails without issues using the same email address as in the store.
Nothing was changed in the store...
I am not sure if it is related or not but for me, since 3 days ago, the invoices are no longer sent (at least, I don't get a copy and one customer confirmed she never got hers either).
I made no...
Oh wow! I am surprised.
Maybe someone smart might need to make a module for that. I can't be the only one who has customers creating duplicate accounts!
I have had customers who, for various reasons, ended up creating a second account in the store. In itself, it is not really a problem, however, some modules related to their account would not work as...
Just in case there is more interest on this, I can confirm that I am using this plugin with 1.5.7c and it works fine.
I still keep my hand raised in case there is any tweak possible to make it...
Other than for MailChimp, has any other module been developed for other emails yet? I know the article seems to say no, but I don't know when it was written (and modules COULD have been developed...
I have been using MailChimp for my weekly newsletter for several years. I am still on the free plan because I have a small list, and didn't need all the bells and whistles of automation and such....
SUCCESS!
One transaction came through with the invoice too.
So I guess it is important to have the correct hostname!
OK, I THINK I might have found the issue. Yesterday, I had the hostname changed from a "generic" vps66728.inmotionhosting.com to a "brand" name vps.scrapbookcampus.com but had not changed it inside...
Unsure if I messed up something but had other issues to address on the Cloudflare front, so with their help and my host help, the spf has been changed to this:
v=spf1 ip4:23.235.194.63...
My challenge is that the PHP setting for the transport method has probably been there for 10 years because I never knew it even existed, so I couldn't know that it needed to be changed.
In any...
It LOOKS like that last detail (email transport) was the issue. One transaction came through, and the invoice was sent to me.
Thank you.
Interesting that it worked fine until this week without any change there. Changed now, so looking forward to the next sale to see if everything works.
Thanks. Will look at it.
Oh... It is set to PHP. Should I change that to smtpauth ?
This is what I have:
v=spf1 +mx +ip4:23.235.194.63 +include:spf.antispamcloud.com +include:spf.protection.outlook.com +include:smtp.servconfig.com -all
The only difference I see is the +mx is...
Hopefully, this will make sense:
SMTP Email Account Mailbox - admin @ creationcassel . com
SMTP Email Account Password - xxxx
SMTP Email Mail Host - vps66728.inmotionhosting.com
SMTP Email...
