Not my words. The words of Magento Senior Director of Marketing, Craig Peasley. "Magento Community is the open-source version of the platform, which means the code is accessible and editable by the public, and was the first product Magento launched in 2007. It’s not a platform for e-retailers who are just starting out, Peasley says, but for retailers who are looking for flexibility and are generating more than $500,000 in web sales. Magento Enterprise is for large e-retailers who do several million in web sales, Peasley says, and is available on a subscription basis." - Craig Peasley (July 2014) http://www.internetretailer.com/2014/07/01/magento-will-pull-plug-magento-go-and-prostores

Yes, except that PrestaShop is an easy to manage solution. Magento is a beast! If you read the post you would have seen that by their own admission, Magento is not meant for small to medium business owners or startups. I realize too that BigCommerce is a SaaS platform whereas Prestashop is self hosted. The article deals with the differences between those approaches and the pros/cons of each. At the end of the day, they are just different ways of getting the same result - online sales!

As some of you may have heard, Magento Go will shut down from next February 2015. They are advising users to migrate across to BigCommerce but I suspect a lot of online shop owners will find that there are better alternatives - such as self hosting with PrestaShop. We've put together a little analysis of Prestashop vs BigCommerce for those interested. http://www.tokyowebdesigns.com/advice/3003/why-choose-prestashop-over-bigcommerce

Probably this reply is too late but if you still need help with Japanese website development feel free to drop a line to us at Tokyo Web Designs.

According to my phpinfo.php file, my server configuration is: So it would appear we don't need to worry about changing anything according to Bellini13. You should try uploading a phpinfo.php file to your root directory and then enter the URL www.mysite.com/phpinfo.php It will tell you whether cURL is enabled or not. http://docs.simplemachines.org/index.php?topic=479.0

I'm wondering the same thing myself. It depends on what version of the PayPal module you are running I guess. But in your /api/paypalconnect.php file you might see something like this: private function _makeHeader($host, $script, $lenght) { $header = 'POST '.strval($script).' HTTP/1.0'."\r\n" . 'Host: '.strval($host)."\r\n". 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded'."\r\n". 'Content-Length: '.(int)($lenght)."\r\n". 'Connection: close'."\r\n\r\n"; return $header; } I am guessing that all you need to do is replace this $header = 'POST '.strval($script).' HTTP/1.0'."\r\n" . with this $header = 'POST '.strval($script).' HTTP/1.1'."\r\n" . and you should be good to go. BUT I haven't tested this so please give it a try in a non-production environment and report on how it worked out! Good luck.

Hi, I am possibly moving on (career wise) and have a couple of clients with PS 1.4 sites I developed over the last two years. One of them uses PayPal Standard as a Payment Gateway. The other is simply a catalog site with no payment features. I am trying to do the right thing by these clients by hooking them up with a competent PS developer or agency to handle any enhancement or maintenance requests going forward. Both sites are in English / Japanese (front end only, back end in English). Knowledge of Japanese not necessarily essential because clients supply all the translated text, but whoever takes over WILL need to demonstrate familiarity with multilingual sites. Both clients are very friendly and reliable with payment. PM me with DETAILED information about yourself if you are interested in the opportunity.

This might help: In your php.ini file you need to increase the memory limit as you have already done. But you should also add this: max_input_vars = 3000; suhosin.post.max_vars = 3000; suhosin.request.max_vars = 3000; See http://www.webmaster...prestashop.html

http://prestashop.carolinacustomdesigns.com/administration/27-tabula-rasa.html When can we expect a PS 1.5 release of this module? Thanks

Still no fix for this?

What does this mean?

This is what I have in my phpinfo.php file. <?php // Show all information, defaults to INFO_ALL phpinfo(); // Show just the module information. // phpinfo(8) yields identical results. phpinfo(INFO_MODULES); ?>

First change your php.ini file as follows: ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ; Resource Limits ; ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ; max_execution_time = 30 ; Maximum execution time of each script, in seconds max_execution_time = 600 ; Maximum execution time of each script, in seconds ; max_input_time = 60 ; Maximum amount of time each script may spend parsing request data max_input_time = 600 ; Maximum amount of time each script may spend parsing request data ; memory_limit = 64M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (16MB) memory_limit = 256M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (16MB) max_input_vars = 8000; suhosin.post.max_vars = 8000; suhosin.request.max_vars = 8000; Create a phpinfo.php file http://docs.simplemachines.org/index.php?topic=479.0 Upload it to the public directory of your site. Test it e.g. www.mysite.com/phpinfo.php It should tell you whether you have successfully increased your variable settings or not.

I would like to use the new PrestaShop v1.5 BUT that is impossible until the PayPal Standard module is working correctly (in both zero decimal currencies AND decimal currencies).
