helgvor_stoll Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Hi,I'm not sure to be at the right place but I'm coming back to Prestashop on this new version. I have some suggestions concerning it:* In AdminCarts.php, won't it be more useful to keep the 'orderby' field to true in the total fieldsdisplay array? I think that it's important and/or useful to order the cart by the total amount.* At the same time, a cart should be deletable. In my previous website (Prestashop 1.2.5), i had several Acunetix scans which created a lot of generic carts. It would have been very useful to have a delete button in the grid actions instead of deleting these carts directly from the data tables. We can so find other uses for this, no only deleting carts after an Acunetix action.* In the AdminCatalog, it could be very useful to have a products grid subtab (reference, description, ...) in order to search for an existing product before creating it. For instance, we must navigate throw categories which is not very helpful.* Although the front seems to respect the MVC pattern, it's apparently not the case for the back (administrator side). We can only override an admin tab by writing a module but not overloading it. What is the future on this? It should be great to have more than a two-layer menu possibility in order to extend the backoffice.That's all for now, hoping that these remars/requests are not out of the scope of this topics and can be useful for later.Best regards,Helgvor STOLL.www.sexy-shoppy.comwww.ebizness-services.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

csogilvie Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Hmm, if this is the release candidate, why does one of the touted new features (OSCommerce import) not work in any way reliably? In fact, I'm not convinced it's REALLY had that much "real world" testing at all, including before changes to it are committed to SVN If it was me, personally, I'd say the OSCommerce importer was not even beyond alpha state...If this really is a RC, I may need to decide against Prestashop as our next e-commerce platform.

Doug's Mugs Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Does RC mean that it is still not recommended for production? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
csogilvie Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 To me, as a software developer, RC means it's good enough for release and could actually be released as it is just now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

helgvor_stoll Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Hi Patric,I will take a better look on the forum in order to choose the best place for the requests. Nevertheless, I found a solution to override and to overload and AdminXXX tab in a module by using the Class Reflexion in PHP.I then wrote a module yesterday to add the ability of cart deleting and the default total amount ordering.So I will try to write a little explanation on that (when I will have more time) in order to share.Best regards,Helgvor STOLLwww.sexy-shoppy.comwww.ebizness-services.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

csogilvie Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 I do, that's the problem - and then I see that RCs are being released, despite there still being bugs in newly touted features. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead of complaining, may be you should explain what are the bugs you encouter and even, far much better, post them into the Bug Tracker.

csogilvie Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 I have posted them in to the Bug Tracker, as I said... unfortunately, until each bug is resolved, I can't find any more of them because normally they stop the entire thing working.

Drekavac Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 I tested all beta versions, and now also RC. The main thing that MUST work for me is importer from OSCommerce.In any of this version OSCommerce importer did not work.In this version I get this error on start (it is all ok with currencies in oscommerce): Default currency doesn't match : Eroticno : Euro ≠ Importer osCommerce : Please change default currency in your configuration What I want to know, is there any one who can confirm, that importer does work?

Monkeybrain Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Default currency doesn't match : Eroticno : Euro ≠ Importer osCommerce : Please change default currency in your configuration I'm getting the same error, even tho I only have 1 currency on both shops, and they are identical.

bolu Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Hi,I installed prestashop 1.4 RC1 and didn't find Guest Checkout and One Page Checkout modules. There (http://www.prestashop.com/forums/viewannounce/89014_2/) is said that I can find "Guest Checkout and One Page Checkout optimization". Is that mean that these modules are available in this release or that if I buy these modules in a prestashop store they will work fine with the new release?thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nebojsa Stojanovic Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Hi,the module is available natively :In : Preferences -> Order process type -> choose : One Page Checkoutand Enable guest checkout just above...Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mysolarstore Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Any word on how long it will be before the final release is ready? I am looking forward to using 1.4, but I don't want to take too much time adding products to 1.4 beta4 if it's not easy to upgrade to the final release... Will there be a simple way of upgrading so I don't have to start from scratch?Looking forward to using 1.4 soon!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luca S. Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Can I already use rc1 for my shop? I know is adviced to wait, but i would start with this 1.4 version... Could i upgrade it when it will be out 1.4 stable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mytheory. Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Anybody have comments/concerns regarding upgrading to 1.4 (specifically from 1.2.5)?Anxiously waiting to upgrade our shop to 1.4, but in the past there have been some horror stories regarding upgrading. Just want to know if it's been improved or not, and what I should expect.Thank! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lozaria Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Hi, what about cyrillic symbols support in PDF? Thanks. I'm interested in that feature as well.This bug was reported since version 1.0.0.8http://www.prestashop.com/bug_tracker/view/148/and still exists in 1.3.6http://www.prestashop.com/bug_tracker/view/7024/I hope that this feature will be finally available in 1.4 because it is very important to have unicode characters on the pdf invoices.

mandrin Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 One of the main features that must work is the OsCommerce importer. I say "must" because if it works flawlessly, the uptake of Prestashop will be suddenly very huge! I have 2 large stores just waiting to migrate...

OKLY Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Hi all, just want to know if the v1.4 allows us to add an admin or credit card surcharge fee?At the moment all I can do is to add in a handling fee but it will be applied to all the transactions and I don't want this to happen, I just want the fee to be applied when the payment method is via credit card or PayPal.

guest* Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 Me too. I need to add a fee (%) to payment with PayPal or CC. Is there any module or a fix for PayPal using Prestaversion 1.4.0.17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
