AbleCommerce Shopping Cart Software

Unfortunately my store isn't live yet. It seems like the products get a sort order that is independent of the category (or subcategory at least). I'm not sure if that was intentional or not but on the admin side, the sort order is retained for a product across categories. So in Cat1 I have Product A...

It seems to me after more testing that the logic for displaying the products in the admin order doesn't account for products that are assigned to multiple subcategories in the same topcategory (I don't have products across multiple topcategories). We have products that do span multiple subcategories...

try moving something in the admin, moving it back, click to resort, whatever. Maybe something in the table needs to be triggered? I did all that. :) I methodically went through the admin & storefront moving products around for every single category and wrote down what was not functioning properly. ...

Mine doesn't work either. I Just posted that exact code into CategoryGridPage.ascx and it isn't working on some categories. (I had this earlier - sorry for my cross posting: http://forums.ablecommerce.com/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=8907). I have 11 Top Categories, 4 of those have subcategories, for a tota...

Am I missing something? My store is still not executing the expected behavior of mirroring the admin side. Perhaps I am misunderstanding the fix - am I using the wrong category display (custom - based on Conlib/CategoryGridPage3.aspx)? If I need to switch to another I'm sure I can customize the disp...

Has this been fixed in Able 7.2? I'm using a custom colib/codebehind based on CategoryGridPage3.aspx / cs with minimal if any changes to the actual codebehind but just front end/display changes. The sort order doesn't seem to work consistently. I have Top Level Categories with subcategories. Product...

Build your pages into the AbleCommerce software (with .aspx pages) and just do a 301 permanent redirect. Google will keep the pagerank and eventually just replace the .htm pages with .aspx pages. Site visitors will never know the difference. http://www.highposition.net/301-redirect-tutorial-iis/ Eit...

http://forums.ablecommerce.com/viewtopic.php?f=47&t=9150#p39838 That might help you somewhat. It would require customizing. I'm using it to display ALL categories and subcategories. You could probably dynamically hide subcategories with JS or .Net. That way if the user has JS disabled (which I think...

I've been searching through the forums and I can't find something similar to what I am experiencing. We have a total of 4 shipping Methods - all are flat rate: Free Next Day Second Day International We have a few Zones setup (for taxes) but they effectively create only 2 shipping zones: United State...

That's helpful. A programmatic way to do it would be ideal. Unfortunately I can't do anything with SQL. And I'm barely surviving C#. For us at least - we are coming from different e-commerce software (on a server that is going to server heaven after we switch). When we turn off the old e-commerce so...

That was very helpful. I don't know C# very well but alot of Googling got me to this if anyone else needs it / sees an error in my ways. I created a detail.aspx page which was very nice since there isn't one for AC and my old software used that with a query string to pull all product date. string st...

Hi, I'm almost ready to launch my AC site. Unfortunately I'm not sure how to setup my 301 redirects from my old ecommerce site (running Storefront) to the new AC site. I have complete access to everything from files to the server/ IIS 6.0 I know how to setup redirects in IIS for static pages but I'm...

Is it possible to display a products kit options and/or product options on the category page? We have a few products that will have kit options. When a user clicks "buy" it takes them to the product detail page. This is confusing to the user especially since products that don't have a kit go right t...

You really need to get access to the server via FTP or another method. I'm a designer and it took about a week of playing around to really get the hang of how things work to the point of being able to customize the store. I hardly use the admin interface at all since it is geared towards people who ...

That's the problem. When I comment that out it works when the user isn't logged in (the correct quantity) but the quantity is 1 higher when logged in. So: User not logged in, 1 item in basket = 1 item up top User logged in, 1 item in basket = 2 items up top. Is it counting shipping / tax as an item?...

So I've been using this and it isn't quite working right. The price display is perfect but I added an item count and it isn't displaying the count correctly. This issue has been discussed elsewhere (http://forums.ablecommerce.com/viewtopic.php?f=44&t=6683&hilit=mini+basket , http://forums.ablecommer...

Thanks -

Yeah I just kinda figured it out. It is just confusing to when certain pages set things on the page and other use the code behind. So I ended up running around in circles.

The page titles should be dynamic however for the product (Product3.aspx is what I'm using) and the Catalog Pages. I've already set the title tags for everything that isn't a dynamic page.

I'd like to customize my title tags. I've read the multitude of posts about different ways to bind the meta tags, restructuring the <head> code layout etc. But none of them are quite what I want. (The meta tag rewrite http://forums.ablecommerce.com/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=9073 also resulted in duplicat...

Sorry to respond to my own post. Upon some further investigation I think I just want to create a 2 column layout for that which should be easy enough. Where I am confused is when certain items are visible and not visible. Billing Address = always visible Shipping Address = always Shipping Method (sh...

So I am working on customizing the design of my AbleCommerce install. I'm pretty far along and I've got the hang of most everything. I'm mostly just doing design changes. Here's what I want to do/try on the checkout. I like how everything works but I think the page is too long. The space could be us...

The mainpanel is just the div that wraps the... well - main panel - basically the center column of the standard 3 column layout.

Sometimes if a table is wider (with content) than the div it will push outside of the boundaries of that div.
