Hi MaartenPol, Could you post your modified PaymentModule.php file? I got stuck with some of the coding. Your help is much appreciated. Thanks

Rocky, I have figured out how to insert ean13 by modifying mailalerts.php. I am mainly concerned with new order alert. Thank you for your help on this. I have another question. In the new order email or invoice I want to display both unit price and total prices without tax, and display total tax separately. How can I achieve this? What I want to display: EAN13 Product Name Unit Price (excl tax) Quantity Total Price (excl tax) Net Total Total Tax Grand Total

Hi Rocky, Thanks for you quick reply. I have made the changes. EAN13 title is inserted but the actual product ean13 is not inserted. I assume the barcode should be inserted by this code in PaymentModule.php '.$product['ean13'].' Do you know what else I should do to diaply the barcodes? Thanks

Rocky, I would like to add EAN13, unit price (excl tax), tax, total price (unit price + tax) as well as total tax, total price (excl tax) and Grand Total (Total price + total tax). How can I achieve this? I am working on a wholesale website and all detailed tax information is required in the new order email. Thanks

Thanks Rocky. You have fixed it. You are one of the most respected guys here.

Rocky helps me fix the issue. Thanks Rocky. See this thread. http://www.prestashop.com/forums/viewthread/28136/P15/#298920 [url=http://www.prestashop.com/forums/viewthread/28136/P15/#298920][/url]

Hi Mytheory, Thanks for your quick reply. I applied your code without the "if trade" tag, but my page still show "0" item in stock although the product detail page shows the correct stock number. I am using 1.2.5. Very strange.

Does anybody know how to display available quantity in the product list page similar to the product detail page? Thanks

Rocky, I have a similar question I hope you can help with. I want to display available quantity on the product list page. I copied some code from the product.tpl and inserted into the product-list.tpl but it always display 0 in stead of actual quantiy as displayed in the corresponding product page. Do you know why? Code inserted into the product list page. <!-- number of item in stock --> quantity == 0)} style="display:none;"{/if}> {$product->quantity|intval} quantity > 1} style="display:none;"{/if} id="quantityAvailableTxt">{l s='item in stock'} quantity < 2} style="display:none;"{/if} id="quantityAvailableTxtMultiple">{l s='items in stock'} Thanks in advance for your help website: http://1top.co.uk login: demo@demo.com password: demo123

I am having the exactly same problem. My customer has an in-house inventory management system. They have a few different PS websites selling different products from the same central database. They need to update product quantities of the websites on a daily basis. All databases share the same product codes but contain different sets of products. My problem is to find an easy way of updating all the websites without too much manual work. I can get a csv export file from the central database. The question is how to extract the quantiy information of a certain number of products from the csv file and import it into PS website. Anybody knows an easy way of achieve this? Thanks PS: The central database contains about 1000 items. Each website has about 400-600 products from the main inventory.

Rocky, Is there a way of displaying "Preorder" in stead of "add to Cart" when a product is out of stock? This will allow customers to know beforehand that this would be preorder. Thanks

Hi Netlink, Have you got the re-order working? I am interested in a re-ordering solution. It would be nice if you can shed some light on what you have done.

Thanks, Chris. It works like charm.

I would like to display both product referernce and EAN13 in the product page (product.tpl). By default only product reference is displayed but I want to display EAN13 as well. Can anybody help with this? Thanks

Hi Letall, Thank you for your comments. I have improved my shop quite a bit. It is now fully functional and generating income. The shop is three months old. I would like to share some my experience with all of you. Below are some of my findings and tips on how to make your shop generate money. 1. The shop must look professional, clean and elegant, 2. The shop must be user friently and easy to use 3. Product images must be good 4. All information about your shop must be available. Creditability Then comes to the most important bit – marketing 5. bring traffic to your site There are many ways to to this. 5.1 Search engine optimisation – make sure your sites are optimised for your keywords. Optimising individual products are more important than general site optimisation. Most my visitors come from product search, and they go to the product page directly. Many of them have not seen my home page at all. Put all meta data in. Check your competitors to see what they have done. Use Google keywords tool. 5.2 Use Google Products. This is free Google tool. Very useful. Upload alll your proudcts into Google products. Youi need to optimise Google products as well to achieve higher ranking in Google products search. The techniques are different from your site products optimisation. After I started using Google products I have found Google bot visit my site a lot more frequently, from once a couple of days to once a couple of hours 5.3 Google adwards Google adwards can help you generate instant traffic but it can be very costly. I think it has helped me to increate my generic search rankings. I spent £5 per day for a week. It did not bring in any sales. All my sales are from generic search. 5.4 Create as many inbount links as possible from related sites. 5.5 Upload your products to shopwiki. It is free and can generate a lot back links to your site. There are other free listing sites as well. 6. Optimise your hot sellers first If you have many products, optimise your hot sellers first. Here is my best sellers – Wii fit balance board. It has generated most of the sales. I have done a lot of research on my competitors to select correct key words for the products. 7. Set price right I have a few tips on setting prices. If you rely on generic Google searches, make your price competitive. Most Google searchers are bargain hunters. Put your price in the prodcut title to attract atention. If you sell on ebay as well, you may set a different price, usually higher. Ebay charges 10% + Paypal fee. Ok. That is it from me for now. Your tips, comments and questions are welcome. I hope this thread will help many new shop owners. Please share your expericences here. We can all learn from each other.

I was very excited when I launched my first shop - a few months ago. The excitment was soon replaced by disappointment. Where are the orders? Nothing, absolutely nothing for a couple of months. Then I sat down to work on the most important factor of ecommerce - marketing. Three months on the shop generated over £3000 last month. How did I acheive this? Here are some of my tips: 1. The shop must look professional, clean and elegant, 2. The shop must be user friently and easy to use 3. Product images must be good 4. All information about your shop must be available.

Rocky, Any idea how to keep the html tags in product page, version 1.2.5.? 1.3 keeps all the tags. Thanks

Steve, It seems the real world is indead different from what is most people's mind. I did think Good Ads could hard my site. But I noticed that all major online retailers put ads on your sites. They must know more than we do. Any other people out there has any experience with Google Ads?

I order my product by date of entry so that the newest entry is always listed first. It works fine. However, I also want to move products around once they are ordered by date using the posision arrows. In BO I can shuffle products around, but nothing happens in the front shop. Rocky, is there anything wrong with the software? I use 1.2.5

Steve, Thanks for your advice. I will change the adSense style and change the location as well. I see you place ads in the middle. Does the location make any difference? J, I agree with you on the category. I find it hard to find products, especailly in the BO. I will create some subcategories.

Hi Steve, Thanks for your comment. I am still uncerntain about any benefits AsSense may bring. I have not seen any evidence yet. I agree with your point on leaving the AdSense on the site as long as it does not do any harm. You can see most of major online retailers display ads on their sites like Amozon and Ebay. They must do it for a reason. I am wondering if I can replace the text "Ads by Google" with something like "our sponsors", which will make it better integrated with my site. Any idea? My Game Accessories site

Rocky, is there a way to sort order by date. I want to place the newest products to the top of product listing page. At the moment new entries are added to the bottom of the list. I want to reverse it. Thanks

Anybody can help with this? I want to create a link in the category description but have not idea how to do it.

I had the same problem. WHen I checked the html, my text has a javascript tag. Removed it and it worked.
