Hello A few months ago I read there was an auto upgrade in beta which worked reasonably well. A few 1.7 updates have come out so i was interested in mirroring my site and trying the upgrade. Is the auto upgrader working really good now. Or is there a better way i can upgrade? I always wanted to try with a fresh install and import all accounts and orders and users. Importing never worked for me from 1.6 old install to 1.6 fresh. My theme and my core modules i must have all work on 1.7 so I am interested on giving it a try. Thanks for any tips or tutorials you might be able to link me too.

The issue is likely 1 of 2 things. 1 as listed already. Prestashop is a bit dumb it tells you there's an update to a module you might have purchased privately from the developers site rather than prestashop add-ons. So it tells you there is an update (which there is) but because you didn`T buy on presta it says successful but it actually failed due to not actually owning on presta add-ons. You already confirmed this is not the case. 2. The permissions in the modules folder is wrong some where. Either the default /modules is set wrong or the individual module /module/modulename is set wrong if only certain modules are failing. best solution is to go into file zilla click the modules and set permission correct and choose all sub files and folders. + this time only or to your preference Grab a coffee come back and test updating. There are faster ways to change all permissions but coffee time! Make sure you clear all cache too in the performance folder.

Hello, I am testing this beta 2 on my test space. Can anyone point me to instructions on how to import database into test server from my real shop space? I followed the usual steps like in 1.6 but it seems to fail loading the admin site after that. example it shows old menu structure not the new. So maybe certain tables should not be imported ?

hello TOday out of no where i start getting link errors to product 404 It used to be {category:/}{id}-{reference}.html Now it says i must have {rewrite} in the link so a link would be www.domain.com/en/emu-private-railway-and-subway/1435-microace-a8857.html now the rewrite places in the name. I did not change any settings how can i reverse this as it will stuff all my seo links. thanks for help

Hello, i noticed there is apps for android / ipad iphone to manage orders quickly. I have an android tab and was using an app that was free to do this while getting stock for orders. Now i have a surface. Does anyone know of a free app that can show a nice easy management screen? i hate the generic web browser one. I know of the paid one but dont want to spend $100 plus just to view the orders on the screen to get the products quickly. Thanks

El Patron, I agree the translations need to be able to filter before a query. Example Installed modules Theme choice Module choice Language then submit so it only generates that specific module. It should also be the same from the module management page now when you click the translate module it just loads all instead of just that 1 module. The front office is not so bad but there are so many modules and lines to get. Still if you could filter sections of front office would be nice. At the very least they should try load the values over multiple pages at least then it`s just a pain to get to the right page rather than having to deal with hosts. After the 1000`s of posts about this max vars issue since early 1.5 days when php changed you would think that presta would have done something about this by now. In fact there should be a much larger push in improving the whole multi language use of this software since presta seem to be saying they are trying to get into more countries etc.

hello, I have checked that is there i had also previously tried adding ps_os_bankwire1 with the status of 10 too same error occurs. 1 thing i have noticed is it`S not in the active payments list in modules > payment But it is in the currency listing and area restrictions list.

hello, Thanks for your reply. Originally i wanted to use the same as the original. PS_OS_BANKWIRE But i was getting that same error so i tried making the new OS with 1 at end of name. maybe i didn`t create a new status correctly but both ways did not work. I originally wanted to keep it simple Just have the bankwire1 pull up bank_owner1 etc details for the confirmation page at end of transaction and Use the same email as the original bankwire module and the email would provide both bank details anyway.. I.e. Bankwire owner details etc and bankwire1 owner details etc. When i started to get that error i decided maybe i needed to make a different OS but still get the same problem.

thanks El, But i found an alternative. I will mark this as solved. I ended up making a wamp copy of my site i translate there and then i copy the translation files. Bit of effort. (roughly 20 mins for wamp) + 10 minutes for site download and install on wamp. But works. Besides the max vars thing fast comet has been pretty good in comparison to my last host. Fast support etc shame that the support level guys just don`t understand how important that option is in presta.

i know many people have asked this thousands of times but i need help for making this work. I had a really old one that worked but the module is back from v1.4 days or older. So i disabled it temporarily and made a bankwire1 with newest module unfortunately i get a 500 error on submitting order. i went through and changed all to example bankwire1 upon turning on dev mode i get this error. listed at end of post. I have added an order status in the ps menu so what could be the issue? Also attached the bankwire1 module so far. Thanks all.

hello all, So i moved hosts from gator to fast comet. Unfortunately i did not realize at the time a few month back that they only allow max vars 4000. So i need like 6000 to open the modules translation page and others. Their suggesting is to upgrade to a vps for $40 odd dollars a month more just so i can change some translations on my site once every few months ... Yeah right .... So besides the seemingly impossible task of trying to edit the text files what other alternatives are there. anyone made an app or better module that can generate them with out requiring vars to be crazy high. I did try the store manager app but it only allows for the translations on category and products ... Seems that program cannot even import my current mail templates i spent a lot of time and effort on. I did search the add-on shop but the inline cannot translate everything. Thanks for any suggestions

Hello, I recently setup memcached on my site. Well actually my host did it. After doing so there seems to be a 30 min delay in anychanges to the page. That is not so much an issues as basically thats what t does keep a ready version. What i did notice is that the Main category for say Brand Tomix shows all models but the sub categories shows No products. But there are products in that menu. So i did wait 1 hours just to see if it was some kind of delay. but the same issue occured. If i disable immediately they all show up again. So does anyone know what i am doing wrong? Is it ok to use smarty on when memcache is on? Would the cdn be causing some kind of issue? I did notice 1 other thing since it was turned on ccc seems to not be working. Example google pagespeed test now tells me to turn on compression minify etc but they are on. thanks for any help.

Hello, I have a very slow modules admin page. Can i ask for help on issue. I checekd folders are not capitals. also attached is my profiling log. It seems that initcontent is the culprit but i have no idea what to do. thanks for anyhelp profiling modules.txt

Just wanted to start a conversation on prestashops official modules. Does anyone think that there modules are very dated and well crappy. I mean i get they don`t want to make the best module else who would develop and try and sell against them right? But long ago i bought the advanced menu with 2 years update etc. i only used it a little. then i found it was really crap and outdated. the theme ones and other are much better responsive etc. It`s kinda like they built them for presta 4.0 and never bothered to enhance them just do bare minimum to the module to work with newer versions. I recently wanted a little more control over the sending of cart reminders. Like setting amounts rather than the default vanila % only. Not a problem i thought look at the one advertised in my backend modules page by presta. Oh it`d by presta shop surely it will work flawlessly......... surely ........ No demo (now i know why) so i bought. The thing is buggy, the template maker is poor and can`t make a nice template easily etc doesn`t match with the newer versions of presta and i cannot get it to work yet as in i cannot save the template or anything. playing the waiting game on contact us...... Anyway kinda thinking i`d like to refund and purchase the module that costs twice the amount as it looks really nice. Only need the option to set an amount not % even though half it`s features i don`t need I now think it would have been much wiser to buy the non presta one. I`m not looking for support on this module just making my opinion.

hello I will try suggest some help for you. First please try and check modules folder Make sure no folder have a capital letter Example Blockcms it should be blockcms If this is not the issue please try check module folders in ftp have correct permission.

oh great i just noticed that resetting the module clears rewards points. that is fantastic. Can some one please tell me what tables i could restore from a back up to get the points back ? Once i fix the module not displaying that is.

Hello, Can some one help me with the rewards voucher input box on the first step of the cart. It was working a few days ago. now just a grey bar. I added recently a module fast currency converter (this allows an estimate when mouse over of the price) I also redid many transaltions (not yet finished. only japanese) i noticed it after a few days of test orders to see translation displays well etc. So i thought it must be the new module. So i disabled cleared cache in back office and on browser. but same issue. So i totally uninstalled again same problem. now i think i eliminated that as the problem so i reinstall and setup. The other i decided it could not be a translation issue as both english and japanese site don`t work. I look at the dev mode but cannot see any particular error so something is wrong. As i almost finished the thread i remembered just a few days there was a cart update i updated perhaps that is the issue too. Something changed? my site is www.loco1hobby.net Can anyone tell me what migh be worn please? Thanks for anyhelp.

well for 1 6.1.0 adds alot of new features and fixes. the 1.6.0.11 13 14 might be a waste but if you are 1.6.0.x probably a good idea to update to 1.6.1 carefully using a test server and a full manual back up first. Some notable good things from update for me. a resend email button on the order management. so if a customer did not pay bank wire etc i can remind them by a click of a button then writing a whole manual email. it runs noticeably faster. Front and back. After the update my site went from google speed rating 61 to 74 on avg. Also the add products used to take 40 seconds to load before i could add details now loads super quick just 5 - 10 seconds. Before if i tried to change language flag it would mess up and i would have to reload whole page becasue it took so long to load up the new products form. theres alot of other fixes new invoice setting. of course if you are on 1.6.1.0 and there is no issues then when 1.6.1.x comes out there is no need to update. But if you want better speed and the new features thats why you update.

Hello, title wrong meant 1.6.1.0 I have an issue where some modules keeps saying they need updating. I update it says updated. the module list shows the newest version but still the modules auto check says x module needs updating. i tried checking the permissions of the modules in question and updating them manually but same issue. Anyone seen this before or know what might cause it. Only some do do this. I spoke to the dev of 1 and he gave me a newer not yet released version higher than the current one but still it says update available. thanks for any help or suggestions.

Hello, In Japan it is good to have several bank choices. SO i want to have bank transfer - bank name 2 or 3 so i need to have the module several times. I manually edited the module to have 1 2 or 3 at the fields the database uses to pull the details for the bank transfer and renamed modules accordingly. However when i confirm order i get a 505 error. does anyone know what i might be doing wrong or of a place that has free bankwire modules. I was thinking surely other people have wanted this before. Thanks,

hello, I just updated my store and had that issue. It was a permissions issue with my themes folder. Before changing permissions i tried regenerating clearing cdn cache etc after permissions a simple f5 then it worked.

ohh forgot to mention to try resetting the cart module and make sure it`s updated.

did you check url rewriting etc?

try regenerating images from the images settings. preferences > images > regenerate if it fails try doing 1 category at a time as it is common to time out. Also make sure that when applying update the folder for images on your server has appropriate permissions such as 755 i think.

Hi, I am running the latest presta 1.6.0.14 Now I have had this issue for a while and i want to stop it. My business runs a lot on reservations of new models etc coming out. The issue is a lot of customers ask me to add items rather than to create a new order so it can be combined. This generates a order change email many times. An example. Customer bought 2 trains on reservation. Then added latter some couplers for each train and some interior lighting. Then added another model altogether. This ended up generating 5 emails to the customer for each individual product. It really is annoying. I have bought a module to allow for shipping adjustments before asking customer to pay and it sends a email notification to the customer manually with a button. I can also use this to send a quick Hello Customer, Order number x has had the following adjustments (items list) Shipping change carrier and price. Kind regards, store team Is there anyone out there that can tell me of an easy solution for disabling the change email. It makes the customer confused and annoyed they got 5 emails or sometimes more. I have looked through the forum and found a lot of topics but none ever saying how to exactly just. "you will need to override the controller" I seriously hope this is something prestashop will change in the future as a reminder and a change button. both basic functions. Thanks for any help. Keitaro
