AbleCommerce Shopping Cart Software

The current basic site search is obscure and not very useful.
My customers site is: www.thecountrycaregroup.com.au
Wondering if anyone has hacked it in a good way?
I'm sure my customer would be happy to pay for some good changes.

This is using gold latest version, using IE 9. Make sure to put something in the username, and password field, then press Enter. From the error it seems it's trying to run search but the url doesn't make any sense. Actually when I tried again, it error out again, but this time with a query that seem...

At my customers site here: http://www.smobility.com.au/Default.aspx When using Internet Explorer on the login page, if you press enter (instead of clicking Login button) the site times out and actually crashes. This is the error in the error log: An error has occured at http://www.smobility.com.au/S...

Hi ForumsAdmin,
thanks for the feedback I'll look into these.

Regards,

I'm talking about fine grain control of menus based on roles of users - what you've proposed is not solution unless I'm missing something.

So there is no ability to have dynamic menus any more? I thought GOLD was an upgrade, not a downgrade.. The way it's been sold is so many improvements - there should be clear documentation on what also has been removed. I'm really surprised something as basic as this is no longer possible without lo...

What about dynamic menus - nvelocity allowed use to do that. Now I'm not sure how..?

Pat.

I want to have some users (ie staff) see 1 extra custom page. In version 7 I would edit the header layout using nvelocity tags. Now all I can see is to directly edit ConLib\StoreHeader.ascx ? Is this the correct way to do this? Strangely, the Merchant guide here: http://help.ablecommerce.com/mergedP...

thanks for this. just lost 3 hours trying to figure why my data wasn't showing.. :-/

I contacted AC sales, and they pointed me to this:
http://www.web2market.com/Products-Assi ... -P132.aspx

It does it all! We will just use that.

Thanks for the response though.

Pat.

I'm in need of this feature. Just wondering if anyone has built this or if it is in later releases?

Pat.

As per this post here: http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/aspnet-ajax/grid/radgrid-buttons-missing-css-class-and-styles.aspx According to the designer you themed our site, the images/buttons used by Telerik RadGrid are being overwridden by the AC theme. They tried to solve it but referred me ba...

Hi David, Thanks for the reply. I am using 7.0.7.14600. Just so its clear, this is using images based on SKU, from the Assets/ProductImages directory. It's strange because it doesn't load the list of images into the Product images (see how there are no elements in the Product.Images property in the ...

For unknown reason, AC does not find some images in the Assets folder. It appears to be file names that contain spaces. Eg, look here: http://www.thecountrycaregroup.com.au/Venosan-Compression-5001-Knee-High-P108175.aspx The image "SM 45011.jpg" ,"SM 45011_i.jpg" "SM 45011_t.jpg" does exist on the s...

Have noticed that search on partial SKU does not find anything. ie it needs to be full SKU. Can anyone suggest an easy/correct way to alter this? Was thinking of adding '*' to end of search inside the search control but that might be a bit dodgy..

Thanks,

Pat.

Heh. Would you believe I took a stab and figured it out?

For anyone else interested, for content pages it uses page Webpage.aspx to serve them, so just add this to the list of secure pages:

<files>
<add path="Login.aspx" />
<add path="Webpage.aspx" />
..
..
</files>

Phew...

Pat.

Hoping someone can help here. I'm just about to deploy my AC website, and have found that custom content pages (ie configured through Admin->Website->Content Pages) do not have HTTPS applied to them, when input into the ablecommerce.config file. I guess this is related to the fact that they are not ...

I'm using custom user controls (placed in /ConLib/Custom/), and I want to pass some static parameters through. Basicaly it all looks correct to me, but AC never seems to pass the parameter through. Just wondering if there's something obvious I'm missing..? Here is part the defintion for .cs file, th...

Thanks Mazhar,
Can you say why the Product table cannot be extended, not even with the source code?

Anyway, in my case I'll just use my own ORM class as needed.

Regards,

Pat.

Hi there, I have read through the many posts about adding additional information to the Product table. I know MyGeneration can be used to generate other ORM classes, though is it possible to add fields to the ac_products table and see these in the Product object? Does the source code need to be purc...
