AbleCommerce Shopping Cart Software

Judy,
Thank you !!!!!

Dave

During phase 1 implementation we arent' going to have any products. At the category level we want a list of manufacturers that supply that category. So, I've edited the text for the category and chosen the "Category Grid Page With Category Data". And it shows the list of manufacturers. But, it also ...

For our phase 1 implementation, we are only showing categories. We won't have products or shopping cart features.

Is it possible to change the "Product Finder" into a "Category Finder'?

Thanks,
Reddirt

OK - I experimented and only the category4 one would display the link

Thanks - but, I should have stated I want one the user can see.
I went ahead and created my own webpage listing the manufacturers.

I'm trying to add a link to a manufacturer from a category display page. I followed the "How To": Adding a Link Use this procedure to add a link (content object) in the store pointing to an outside resource, such as a pdf file or add a link to another website. This could be a link to a product manuf...

Is there a built in page to list manufacturers?
Or a panel?

Thanks,
Reddirt

I would like to have a sidebar on the right that lists manufacturers and links to their websites.
I couldn't find a pre-built side-bar for manufacturers.
Has someone already created this and is willing to share the solution?

Thanks,
Reddirt

I had so many problems with my current web hosting site, that I'm moving to a different one. I don't have very many mods to the site and all were with scriplets from within Able.

Is there a folder I can copy from the old site to the new site that contains my scriplet modifications?

Thanks,
Reddirt

It's a new site. I'm using a 30 day trial. My customer is planning to purchase this week. So, we haven't gone live. Here's the URL http://us538403.bizhostnet.com/ABLE/Default.aspx And it's the first time I've used BizHostNet.com In the past 10 minutes it hasn't happend again. Could it have been a te...

Yes, I'ts at a shared hosting site.

I have a few customizations. Nothing major.

It doesn't happen every time I access the site.

Plus - it takes about 20 seconds to load the first page. After that it's fairly responsive.

Is it a problem with my hosting company - or Able Commerce?

Thanks,
Reddirt

I have pre-production store running on a web host. I've also installed Able on my PC. I did a .bkp of the database on the web host using SQL Server Manager and created a new dbms on my PC and restored the dbms from the web host (the downloaded .bkp file). 1) How can I change the web.config file to p...

I've searched the Online Help and I can't find the directions for configuring People/Users from the Admin screen.
Where can I find an explanation of the Group choices?

Thanks,
Reddirt

Can you get sub-categories to show up - even if there are no products in the sub-category?

Thanks,
Reddirt

I fixed it. I had to compare all of the files sent via ftp. Some weren't the same size.

I uploaded the website to a shard service. Then ran the /install/default.aspx page and got: Server Error in '/ABLE' Application. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Format of the initialization string does not conform to specification starting at index 0....

Yes, I'm running a test site on DiscountASP.net
I'll ask them.

Thanks,

I checked both of those - thanks for the tip. The Able help desk reloaded the source files for me and it worked. I'm wondering if the current zip for testing has something corrupted in it? Because I downloaded it twice and ftp'd to the site. Anyway - it was good to have the Able Help Desk fix my pro...

I'm running a test site and every few minuts while in Admin mode, I have to signon again. I haven't change the web.config file - it reads: <authentication mode="Forms"> <forms timeout="90" slidingExpiration="true" name="AC7.ASPXAUTH" /> </authentication> <sessionState mode="InProc" timeout="30" cook...

Thanks Como!
The treeview control is what I wanted.

I'm a developer and I want to use a shared webspace to host my development and testing.

I'm trying to decide which shared webspace hosting company to go with.
I'm looking at GoDaddy, DiscountAsp.net, easyCGI, BizHostNet, ...

Do you have any recommendations?

Thanks,
Reddirt

OK - I figured it out.
They show up on the next page. I thought they would show up in an expanded tree.

I just downloaded the 30 day trial. I was very impressed with the installation. I have a question: My categories and items show-up - but, the sub-categories don't. I've tried editing the page and selecting different sidebar, but they still don't show up. How do I get the sub-categories to display? T...
