Yep I see what you mean.

I just placed an order at a store. It also did not show the shipping until the last page to click to confirm order.
At that time I was rather surprised to see a $12...

OK, I just got back on and see that and turned off the Express now as said.

What is COWOA or FEC, I'll look to see what those are and what they do.

I want to encourage users to make accounts,...

I think many of us do not want to make accounts because we do not want to be permanently linked to a store or any of our info on file at the store other than to place the order and be then be...

THANKS!

WOW, how did I ever miss all that! There is allot I need to look into in that area, I don't think I went into it that far.
Once Paypal set up and working I guess I thought that was all...

Newegg does not require an account. Or at least did not.
I have bought from Newegg using credit card several times and Paypal when I first started dealing with them many years ago, I just entered...

I'm not sure about the Express Checkout, what it actually does or how it works, what it effects.

However I think the store should calculate the shipping costs and add them to the total before any...

Maybe guest enter the shipping address in the store cart before any links to go to Paypal?
Or at least the zipcode for USA, not sure what for other places?

I'm looking for a way too remove the...

I found my answer!

It works strange for a guest! It did charge the shipping!
I could not complete a purchase myself since the Store uses my Paypal, I can't send myself a PayPal from the account...

I just found my store is not charging shipping if a customer checks out with Paypal and is not logged into their store account!
I need to fix this quick! LOL
More important I thought I would...

Thanks.

I think I had posted here though because the second problem happened when I tried to fix the first.
Local database for test store and online store datadase are not the same and I was not...

THANKS!

I may not be able to work on my test store for a couple days, but I will try that soon as I can!

Thanks.
I forgot about that perhaps, but the file names are not long, it's the title in the CSV file that is too long.

OK, I will give that a try.
Thanks.

I found it and fixed it.
Sorry, I got in a bit of panic when I broke it!

Just had to edit both config.php files to change the database password, now things seem to be working again.

I found part of my answer, yes on the password so that is probably the problem I have.
But I have not found how to provide the new password to the Zencart yet.

Zencart 151

Help, I crashed my site!

Does Zencart need the password to use the database? I did change that!
If it does need the new password how/where would I put it since I can not get into anything for the...

Ok, sorry I thought I did but maybe not clearly.

I don't really want to move anything or rename anything right now. Just have the correct URL show for everything. I'm still not too sure how to do...

Yikes. LOL

When I first setup my Zencart store I used my existing host service and put the zencart in a sub folder so,
http://shirts-and-stuff.com/zenstore

Now I have a new domain name that...

Thanks!

That got me down from 612 warnings to only 32 now. LOL
I'll edit those 32 if I need them.

I know I saw the answer for this somewhere here before, but I cannot find it now, and have not seen it in the manual yet though it may be in there. I did buy the E-book now.

I am running Zencart...

Thank you. Yes that does help allot!

I have a local test store set up now so that I can experiment.

I think I may have thought of a way to do what I want then, with your help Thanks!.

If I...

I've read the Wiki but not sure about some things.

If I already have the products in my store and I just want to update prices and stock levels but not change anything else, what all fields are...

I downloaded Notepad++ already, but had not heard of the others. What are they, what do they do?

I got OpenOffice now and been using that for the spreedsheets so far.

Thanks folks!
It all helps!

I just scraped up the money and bought the E-book yesterday also.
Found a couple things in there just scanning through it quick last night that I did not even know...

Were you using anything like "Easy Populate" to upload products/categories using CVS files?

I am not certain on this, but I would "THINK" if you have a full CVS file of all your products and...

Well, I got my local store working great now, and I broke it already.
You just can't give some kids a new toy and expect it to last anytime. LOL

I was testing something I was wondering about and...

When we don't know anything at all about how things work sometimes the least little things can be confusing.

Wamp makes a WWW sub folder, and in order for Zencart to be found by the browser using...

In case anyone else has a problem with Wamp and finds this thread later. I'm running XP Home SP 3 on this system.

The MSVCR.dll was not found during Wamp install, and installing the second time...

Installed Wamp and not working, got a error first time

MSVCR.dll not found, reinstalling may fix this problem,

so installed again and it pretended to install but the Icon it put on desktop...

I've been reading that one.
Their link to Wamp is broken. Gives me an error page every time, but I found Wamp site going through Google and it worked.

Also, while I am here, any advice on the best way to install my test site on the local PC in case I want to move it online later?
I am thinking just C:/zencart
Would that later cause me to have...

I've read I need Wamp, downloading Wampserver 2.2 now from SourceForge, is that the correct one?
I need 32bit for this XP Home version.

I also read something before about needing something from...

Good point, I had not thought of confusing others later if I changed it.

I will pop over to Easy Populate thread for some other question I had also.

Things like what headings required and what is optional etc... What happens "IF" and stuff like that.

Still trying to...

Thank you.

That fixed it, I did a couple more test CVS imports and fixed a few other items also and they are found now too.

I will try to round up the info on what I have and use and put it in...

Here's a sample CVS I was testing with and just 3 items.

Remove the spaces of course :smile:

I exported the big CVS file from...

Another thought, and I have not yet searched for this answer so maybe simple thing.

If I need to cancel a GC amount, how do I do that?

Example from yesterday
Wife bought the first $2 GC and...

Thanks!
I understand it now!

So basically when the customer buys the GC to begin with they are really just depositing money into their account so no code then, they just get a confirmation...

Sorry, I tried to edit that first one and the 7 minute timer messed it up, so I had to post the second one.

OK, I'm confused a bit. Tutorial reads



So unless something changed, I read what I put in bold to mean wife should have got an email with a code in it, then she can send that code to our...

OK, I'm confused a bit. Tutorial reads

I think so,
I think the setting I used when setting it up as a product is supposed to let it just work, not Que it for approval.

I want them sent soon as payment received. I know when I was...

GC's are going right into the user account, no codes sent, that is not right or what I what.
I had the wife buy a $2 GC, everything seemed to work ok, I got payment everything, but she never got...

Maybe I will set an attribute my customers must pass an IQ test before buying one. LOL

I kinda need them, or something on my end, that way I could put money like into my daughters account on my...

Did a few searches, results had nothing to do with what I searched for though.

Wife needs to buy a GC from my Zencart store to send to our daughter. This should test many things so we know allot...

I don't have linked products that I know of, though about everything is showing to be linked?

What does tis do, and is it what I want to try?



I also see this and not sure if I should run it...

I see now.

I ran the code, seemed to fixed my problem! I can now get my items into the cart with no errors. Thanks ALLOT!
That really helped!

Is there anything I can do like that to find items...

Units? Do you mean like a 12pack sold as 12 only? And Minimum would be like single items but I only would sell 5 or more at a time but not 1 or 2 ?

I'll have to look to see how those are setup. I...

I wonder how long it takes to backup a database, mine should not be too large yet I think.
Been sitting here a short time now, Still have a box "Backing up Database... " and it has a green check...

I will try the Gzip and see, have not done it yet so don't know.
