AbleCommerce Shopping Cart Software

We created CSV files to upload all of our products. We thought we could create one CSV file with all of the fields needed for Product and Variant fields and then map the fields during the import process. That seem to go well. DataPort even gives the option to save your mapping to a template. After m...

yes, you must provide the folder where the images reside. In an exported CSV file using DatatPort, the image name has ~\Assets\ProductImages\ with the image name.

You cannot add suggested items at the time you upload your products because the pointer to the suggested item is required and the suggested item may yet to be created. As Naveed suggests, After uploading all of your products. write a routine to create an XML file to relate your products. You can get...

I am in the process now of doing that. Nothing about this is easy. I am writing routines to pull the data from the storefront database. The good news is you only need one csv file to import all of the products. It took me awhile to identify the product attributes. you will need to write a routine to...

Thanks for the information. I have 12gb memory installed and I am using dataport defaults, i.e. did not change the chunk size. I have been reading the dataport documentation again to see if I missed anything. I will post here if I get by the error.

Hi Judy,
This is not a large store. We have perhaps 1,100 products. Are you saying the dataport utility tries to store all variants in memory before writing them to the CSV file?

Thanks for your response by the way...

We are using dataport 7.7.251 and ablecommerce 7.06 with Api version 7.6.14430.0. I am running Dataport in Compatibility mode on Windows 7. When I try to download the product variants as a CSV file, it runs for awhile and then displays the following error Exception Message: Exception of type 'System...

First of all let me say that AbleCommerce is a great shopping cart. We are using verison 7.0.6. We are struggling with the same issue. Although the copy function helps when setting up new products. There is a need for a way to modify all products that have the same series of options. We have many pr...

At www.HillCountryCustomCycles.com, we are running over 20,000 visits per month, for the past two months. The site averages around 600-700 visitors per day with peaks of 800 visitors per day. Page views average around 3,700 per day with peaks up to 5,000. We are hosted on AbleCommerce servers and co...

Gail, It takes a minimum of 15-20 minutes per item and often times longer depending on the condition of the photo. That includes CSS formatting the product description with unique title and meta description for each product. Which you do not have now. I think $5 per item is a little low if you expec...

Can we get an update on this issue? In version 7.0.6, I do not see a way to complete the purchase when there are no shipping methods.

I found the PayPal settings under My Account/My Selling Tools and then click the Update option for Website preferences. After making the changes listed in the AbleCommerce Help Manual under Configure > Payments > Gateways > PayPal, the customer is automatically returned to the My Order page (https:/...

I am checking the PayPal settings but as you know it is difficult to determine where to find things. Presently customer can pay with PayPal but when they click on the link to return to our site they get the 400 error. There is no double slash in the link.

After applying the patch, I ran a test and now I am getting an error after making payment. The good news is even with the error, the order shows paid in AbleCommerce. https://www.hillcountrycustomcycles.com/ProcessPayPal.ashx?OrderId=1118 Server Error in '/' Application. The remote server returned a...

I applied the patch and modified the web.config file to force the system to reload. After the patch, orders are showing up as Authorization Pending.

Please advise...

I looked at the patch for PayPal again. Version: AbleCommerce versions 7.0.5 and 7.0.6 only Instructions: 1. Extract the CommerceBuilder.PayPal.dll to a temporary location. 2. Copy the new DLL file to the \bin\ folder of your AbleCommerce installation. 3. Make sure to recycle or restart the web appl...

When we discovered a problem with paypal, I applied the patch for PAYPAL. Obviously that just caused more problems. I replaced the original dll for PayPal and that fixed this problem. I must wait and see if customers are still having problems. Is there a better way to see a list of patches and the v...

After upgrading from 7.0.1 to 7.0.6 we are getting an error at check-out when clicking the PayPal button to pay. PayPal was working before the upgrade. The error occurs on this page. https://www.hillcountrycustomcycles.com/Checkout/Receipt.aspx?OrderNumber=1108&OrderId=1108 This is the error message...

AbleCommerce 7.0.6:
I changed the numbers to
private int _Cols = 3;
private int _Rows = 10;

But the page still displays only 5 rows... what am I missing?

The good fairy much have come and fixed the primary image. After moving into production, I could have sworn the problem still existed. That was Monday... Today, I looked again and the primary image uploads OK but the Thumbnail and Icon have the white edge. Did someone from AbleCommerce fix it? If so...

No it does not. Here is another example, http://216.139.230.122/Standard-Kits-C61.aspx You can see the thumbnail has white on two edges. Click on the Thumbnail to view product details. You will see the product image has no white edge. I uploaded the large product image using the upload in Image and ...

After upgrading to version 7.0.6, the product images appear with a white line on one edge after being uploaded using the Images and Assets upload. Here is a link to one of the affected images. http://216.139.230.122/1-14-X-16-inch-Ape-Hanger-Kit-Pre-Wired-with-Cables-P137.aspx Have you seen this? Is...

We are in the process of upgrading our store to 7.0.6. After uploading a product image, one file of the image has a white edge. The edge is not in the original image but it appears in all three of the images created by AbleCommerce. Anyone else using 7.0.6 have the same problem? Here is a link to ou...

We have been using AbleCommerce hosting for over a year now and find their services excellent. Performance is great, support is there when we need it and best of all we do not play the finger pointing game. Nothing worse than having a problem with your store and your hosting company saying the probl...
