  1. I've got dozens of demo products showing up in my shipping module. They don't appear under "Products" - but the numbers next to the products I added aren't sequential 1...2...3...6...11...13... which leads me to believe there are other products (somewhere) under the missing numbers. Anyone know where I can find and delete those demo products? I've tried the product filter, looked thru all the modules, and can't find any indication that the demo products exist... yet, there they are - in the dropdown list on the Shipping module. Anyone else run into this problem?
  2. No international shipping. Just domestic. The shipping module asks for the UPS API Key, but there's (7) keys... address validation, locator, etc. And, according to UPS, each one has to be configured and tested in their testng environment and given their seal of approval before they'll work.
  3. UPS requires (7) API Keys to integrate their services with Prestashop. You have to: Follow the UPS Developer Guide - which says you have a high degree of familiarity with URL Programming, SLL, XML and SOAP Review the requirements for each API Key (more than 7 if you're shipping internationaly) Dowload the SDK Write all the XML files in preparation for UPS' testing environment Submit your API Keys to UPS for access to their testing environment Test all your XML files in their' testing environment - except (2) that need separate approval Obtain certification from UPS' Certification Team for the Shipping API after it's been tested Then add the API Keys - one by one - into Shipping Module And the only UPS paid module I can find is for tracking packages. Am I the only one with this problem? If anyone knows an easier way PLEASE let me know!!!
  4. I'm having the same issues. From where I sit, it looks like you have to pay $200 for a USPS module or 480yr to get a UPS API Key. Is that correct? I would have thought UPS and the cash-strapped Post Office would jump at the opportunity to work with an ecommerce store. Anyone else having trouble getting their shipping module to work correctly?
  5. Pascal... Sorry for the delay... weekend and all... The shortened code totally fixed the problem. Thank you! The problem was the 'More' link. As soon as shortened the code and got rid of it, the duplicate text disappeared. The <div> tag solution was a step in the right direction, but the text kept wrapping around my images because (surprise, surprise) a new <div> had been created. That said, the text is still wrapping despite the width of my header images (I attached a screenshot). Time for a little CSS tweak?
  6. well... I thought it fixed the problem but the duplicate text is still there. It just looked like it was fixed because I changed the length of the description to 1200. So I had 2 large, duplicate descriptions instead a short one at the top. The <div> tags were also causing the text to wrap around my header images (no matter how wide I made them). So I reverted back to <p> tags. The problem, I think, is the annoying "More" and "Hide" onclick events. Can I just delete the whole if/else statement? I really just want a single description - however long - under each category. No links. No More... Here's my revised if/else statement: {/if} {if $category->description} {if strlen($category->description) > 1200} <p class="cat_desc clearfix" id="category_description_short">{$category->description|truncate:120} <span onclick="$('#category_description_short').hide(); $('#category_description_full').show();" class="lnk_more_cat">{l s='More'} </span></p> <p class="cat_desc clearfix" id="category_description_full" style="display:none">{$category->description}<span onclick="$('#category_description_short').show(); $('#category_description_full').hide();" class="lnk_more_cat close_cat">{l s='Hide'} </span></p> {else} <p class="cat_desc clearfix">{$category->description}</p> {/if} (you still rock, Pascal ...no, really)
  7. It worked!!! OMG, thank you for taking the time to explain it! [sOLVED] [sOLVED] All the time I was in the themes>default folder - not the themes>youtheme> folder. The previous posts all mentioned the "default" folder. So I assumed I had to make changes to that folder which would somehow be inherited by mytheme. You just made my week Thanks, PrestaShop Fanatic!! (you rock, Pascal)
  8. well at least I [sOLVED] the caching errors... (this comes under the doh! heading) at the bottom of the Advanced Parameters>Performance page is a dropdown that includes Memcached, APC, Xcache and File System. By selecting File System (instead of the Memcached default) the errors were all cleared. Now, Bluehost has told me this wouldn't work on a VPS. So if your site is hosted on a dedicated server you probably need to install the php repository extensions. But for my purposes, on a shared server, "File System" fixed the problem. Now all I need to do is get rid of that duplicating text! grrrrrrrrrrr....
  9. well, I've tried everything on this thread and it's sure not working for me... 1) I tried changing the <p> tags to <div> - nope. 2) I tried commenting out the code (2x) - nope 3) I increased the truncation from 120 to 1200 (2x) - nope. and I've turned off the Smary cache and re-enabled it each time. Now, prestashop is throwing (3) errors regarding Smary cache. It says I need to install Memcached, APC PECL and Xcache... All this just to get my category descriptions from repeating and adding a "More" link? Here's the way the code looks now: {if $category->description} <div class="cat_desc"> {if strlen($category->description) > 1200} <div id="category_description_short">{$category->description|truncate:1200}</div> <div id="category_description_full" style="display:none">{$category->description}</div> <a href="#" onclick="$('#category_description_short').hide(); $('#category_description_full').show(); $(this).hide(); return false;" class="lnk_more">{l s='More'}</a> {else} <div>{$category->description}</div> very frustrating.
  10. I couldn't for the life of me figure out what and add the {* ....code... *} (2x) meant. Where? Replace the entire green code with {* ...code... *} twice? It was easier to just change the <p> tags to <div>s... of course, that didn't work.
  11. I did.. changed the <p> tags to <div> but the problem persists. Here's the code in the themes>default>categories.tpl file. I think the culprit is in bold below because the duplicated text appears in each category with a 'More' link (although it doesn't work)... {if $category->description} <div class="cat_desc"> {if strlen($category->description) > 120} <div id="category_description_short">{$category->description|truncate:120}</div> <div id="category_description_full" style="display:none">{$category->description}</div> <a href="#" onclick="$('#category_description_short').hide(); $('#category_description_full').show(); $(this).hide(); return false;" class="lnk_more">{l s='More'}</a>
  12. Help! The first paragraph of text is duplcating at the top of all my Category pages. Every category page features an image. Then the duplicate paragraph which ends with the word "More" (and it isn't a link) The More tag is reminiscent of WordPress, but the HTML gives no indication of any such tag. It starts with the <h2> goes on to the <p> etc. etc. and nothing seems duplicated. I checked all the Modules and could find none that could be misconfigured to make this happen. Any ideas?
  13. Thanks, Dave... Yes, even TemplateMonster had trouble figuring that out.. we tried clearing the FTP cache, clearing the Smarty Cache, even the browser cache... nothing... and all the time it was just a Module config... Lol ...just another day in Developer World!
