I want to ask for a refund for a theme that is incompatible with godaddy economy hosting. Whom do I contact? I contacted the developer and they told me to ask prestashop addons directly at https://addons.prestashop.com/en/contact-us But the automated process takes me to the developer again.

Heya. I've set up a new website and just started translating some of it to my native Greek language. Yet from the very first time I get an error that "max_input_vars" is set to 1000 and that it's too low for that. I created a php.ini file and put it on public_html post_max_size = 20000M upload_max_filesize = 20000M max_execution_time = 30000 max_input_time = 60000 memory_limit = 8000M max_input_vars = 8000 suhosin.post.max_vars = 8000 suhosin.request.max_vars = 8000 Then I put the following lines in the (hidden) .htdocs file <IfModule mod_suphp.c> suPHP_ConfigPath /home/vasilonet/php.ini </IfModule> Still nothing. Someone told me that I have to restart apache to apply that, but I use a shared godaddy server. I.e. I can't restart apache, unless I pay 204 euros/ year and 360 euros per year after that. My question is: Why on earth does PHP use such small file limits? E.g. 8MB for mysql databases, a database for ants? Thanks for reading EDIT: This makes me think about hosting it from my computer, since I don't have that many customers online. But I have a dynamic IP so I have to find a way to bypass that problem.

Thanks a lot, it worked. Now, for a completely different question. Is there a way to change the backoffice language to English while retaining all that? Just curious, since it has been translated FROM English and is quite odd looking in Greek.

Hi The default front office language on prestashop is English. I can't change that to Greek, if I want. I can only disable English. Is there a module that can do that for me? That can change the default to Greek, and still have the other (English) available for choosing? Thanks

Is there a way to remove olark live chat support? The footer file has no {literal} in it. edit: nevermind i found it

Hello there. The moment I switched to a new theme (everprest) it shows all jumbled up. I regenerated the thumbs but it still looks weird. https://imgur.com/a/aQ8Jy Is there any way to make it so that it looks fine? Like it does on the theme demo.

I installed prestashop 1.6 and then went on to install a new theme, "everprest". Now the images are kind of weird and the whole webpage is in a little bit of a disarray. (I regenerated thumbnails) As you can see here, the images are the same as the default theme. https://imgur.com/a/jM8KZ Any clues are welcome! Thanks edit: i must have posted this in the wrong forum. my bad

I managed to fix the problem by doing the following: 1) Deleted all files from the local prestashop folder 2) Restored the backup from a working one (1.4) I had saved 3) Performed the automatic update again For some reason it worked this time. Now, let's hope I can get it to stay working lool

OMG it worked! I've been trying to get this prehistoric website to work locally for like a month. Thank you so much!

Yeah they are correct.. Sorry if this is a newbie question but, in phpmyadmin, it says below Is this for the user of phpmyadmin or for the database itself? Cuz it didn't really show me any password/ username prompt when I imported the database. I just imported it. What does phpmyadmin even do? Doesn't prestashop handle the databases?

Hm, strange. Actually the whole batch of code was on one line for some reason (on the original text file) I did restart more than once. both services. I also copy pasted the code nicely (not on one line) and still nothing.

Yes, I did <?phpdefine('__PS_BASE_URI__', '/prestashop/'); define('_MEDIA_SERVER_1_', ''); define('_MEDIA_SERVER_2_', ''); define('_MEDIA_SERVER_3_', ''); define('_PS_CACHING_SYSTEM_', 'MCached'); define('_PS_CACHE_ENABLED_', '0'); define('_THEME_NAME_', 'theme301'); define('_DB_NAME_', 'vassilopoulos'); define('_MYSQL_ENGINE_', 'InnoDB'); define('_DB_SERVER_', 'localhost'); define('_DB_USER_', 'vass_user'); define('_DB_PREFIX_', 'ps_'); define('_DB_PASSWD_', '1234'); define('_DB_TYPE_', 'MySQL'); define('_COOKIE_KEY_', 'PbuqakbuFauFqf414W4XCX8iH5UNQt9FeohUiZZYA3om1MR1RiY8BXiu'); define('_COOKIE_IV_', 'e0TCXykq'); define('_RIJNDAEL_KEY_', 'BJesQLOxZBi8j8Xdh32k3aUGqZ0XPozs'); define('_RIJNDAEL_IV_', 'V9UryLkbe6D9B4M+ONnr/g=='); define('_PS_VERSION_', '1.4.6.2'); ?>

I did all that and it still says: I am using xamp v3.2.2, you think I should be using an older one? It uses php 5.2

You were right. There's a __PS_BASE_URI__ Here is what it shows when I try to edit it: https://imgur.com/a/EWA9t What do I put there?
