Re: CSS based layout (tableless)

Just remember that with the extensive customization of the conlibs you may have significant difficulty upgrading to the next version that makes changes to the conlibs. Our business rules and directors have required us to make changes to almost every conlib we use and it is painful to update.

Re: different pages are appearing on google searches

The Google search turns up the page http://www.littlevillagespices.com/Product.aspx?ProductId=58 whereas navigating through the site goes to http://www.littlevillagespices.com/Northwoods-Steak-Seasoning--P58.aspx In a pure store I'd expect these to both go to the same page.

Re: Map BasketItemID to OrderItemId

The customfields did survive the checkout! I must have done something wrong when I tested it yesterday but it does work and I'm on my way.

Thanks, Joe!

Re: Map BasketItemID to OrderItemId

I'm sorry, Joe and others, I'm not explaining myself very well. Let me try again: With our tour ticket sales, we already have a customization that puts ticket use date information into the LineMessage field in the basket which then passes to the order where we need to read it. That works great. We h...

Hi, We are using 7.0.6 and have a need to map the BasketItemID for each product purchased to the corresponding OrderItemID. Items are placed into the basket and each has a BasketItemID number. When the order is purchased and basket.Checkout is called it returns only the OrderID and I can find no lin...

Re: Credit Card Payment - Button (Error)

I'm pretty new to .NET web programming but as I understand it the ImageButton does not have a Text attribute and the line referred to in the error message is trying to set the original button text to "Pay With Card", at least in mine. Comment that line out and you should be fine with the imagebutton.

Re: Evaluating AbleCommerce, and disappointed - an honest review

Hi Jason, to answer the question you and Logan pose, it really doesn't matter to us either way. We are doing so much customization, and our business rules are so far removed from a typical store, that we'd have to modify it regardless. Were I to be coding a typical store I think I would prefer the w...

List of files changed.

To facilitate upgrading it would be extremely helpful to have a list of files AC has changed from one version to the next. I know a diff program is helpful, but the diff between the new AC file and our old heavily modified one is not so much. If the base file XYZ didn't change then we know we can ju...

Re: Custom URL "activation"

Yes, it does sound like the same type of thing.

I create the custom URL by manipulating the tour name and writing it directly into ac_CustomUrls table. By the way, we are running 7.0.6 currently.

Re: Adding Category name to URL?

Thanks Judy, I figured out what I needed. We're on 7.0.6 but instead of the Custom URL being just about names, you can put "WashingtonDC/Barefoot..." in as the Custom URL and it will use that. I was just limiting myself unnecessarily.

Just to get the discussion rolling - there are many here much smarter than I am about this... Are these licenses for the product in general or are they different licenses for each order/customer?
