Scnenario: A guy choose products on my Prestashop that will originate and ship from more then one suppliers directly to him. My courier company charge me 2 flat rates for the two pickups in addition to the weigh cost calculation.. I will thus now take a courier charge loss.

This can be avoided if there is an module or checkbox option to add say a R70 extra flat rate(amount of your choosing) pickup fee to each addiditional supplier who make up the full order. This will be added to the final shipping fee calculation and make out a more accurate depiction of actual courier costs.

 

So basically shipping fee without the module is R70+30+30=R100

actual fee is R70+70+30+30=R170 (this leave me with a R70 loss)

 

With this module then the R70 will be added with every additional supplier pickup.

Be able to cut and past or maybe even drag a line item within a category where you want it without having to manually mauvoure it to that place by clicking the up arrows. This is handy when comparing prices from a spreadsheet next to the prestashop category window for pricing changes. The structure will therefore emulate each other and makes for faster manual price comparisions.

An option to have a hyperlink box to the product "for more information please click on this link") (open in new tab)

 

You can thus only paste the Link address into that box. and it will be done.

 

No need now to copy and paste a line with this description over and over again plus the second step of pasting the link to the sentence.

When you have a lot of products like me you load a lot of them saying "Coming Soon"

It would be nice to have a "Coming Soon" Option box with a textbox in which you insert say "7" or "30"

The 7 and 30 or other among will mean that after 7 or 30 days the product will revert to normal on sale status with no Coming Soon.

Have the ability to add a sliding formula to the prices

i.o.w 0-R999 markup is 8%

1000-1449 markup is 7.5%

1500-1999 markup is 7%

2000-2999 markup is 6%

 

Some time of "Markup Setup" giving the shop manager the options to change those figures and percentages like he want.

This will be very usefull in retail, medium size busineness that have a lot of stock.

Clone Category

When you have big shop with a lot categories you might like a few clone categories.

 

Example

You sell Graphics cards and that section also has a catagory that contain accessories.

Those cable accessories you would also like to have under cables.

when working in a category of products (say motherboards.)

A nice function will be the ability to change the weight and maybe some other things like stock no. universally.

A top box with input boxes for the required weight and quantity will be nice.

Option for manager to define an check box item or more at the checkout page.

For example

 

The customer bought the stuff and now you want to give him thise options.

 

Would you like that assemble? Checkbox (in the setup a fee is added here and no box for more than one assemblies)

Should we load the software for you? Checkbox ((in the setup a fee is added here and no box for more than install option)

While looking at a customer order profile.

Have a check boxes available where you can insert the package tracking no that sent out an email with extra (manager defined)info such as courier name, courier website and tel nr. (these last three will stay constant)

Courier companies usually need the Supplier address, Customer address and tel no and then Reference no's:..Acc. and order no the pickup guys must show these at the supplier before pickup

If there is a way to compile this faster it would help a great deal. Maybe a pdf that print these and then be able to sent to couriers for them to log. It will safe a lot of time.

At this moment it is slow gowing changing the positsion of an item.

There is various reason for this.

 

Be able to cut and past or maybe even drag a line item within a category where you want it without having to manually manoeuvring by clicking the up arrows. This is handy when comparing prices from a spreadsheet next to the prestashop category window for pricing changes. And to keep thing synchonised. The structure will therefore emulate each other and makes for faster manual price comparisions.

An option to have a hyperlink box below the long description saying something like

"for more information please click on this link") (open in new tab)

 

You can thus only paste the Link address into that box. and it will be done.

 

No need now to copy and paste a line with this description over and over again plus the second step of pasting the link to the sentence.

Have the ability to add a sliding formula to the base prices

i.o.w 0-R999 markup is 8%

1000-1449 markup is 7.5%

1500-1999 markup is 7%

2000-2999 markup is 6%

 

Some kind of a "Markup Module" giving the shop manager the options to change those figures and percentages like he want.

This will be very usefull in retail, medium size busineness that have a lot of stock with different margins.

A preferences option to display more than 50 products in the backoffice category list.

Working in long categories is cumbersone after updating ect. it sometimes go to the first page again.

Increasing the count is also tricky sometimes.

Would be good, if instead of 7 or 30, you can select a date, and from that date the product changes from Coming Soon to available/in stock, automatically.

A couple of suggestions/requests for improvements:

 

PRODUCT IMPORT AND EXPORT

 

When you have a lot of products you naturally load them using the import from csv function. If you have features, you have to type the name of each and every feature when importing. Why not assume it is a feature if all the other column headings are already allocated, and use the column heading in the csv file to prefill in the feature name. Then if required the user can override the choice and edit.

 

Also why when you need to edit lots of products are you not able to export them in the same csv format used to import the info? If this was possible mass updating would be easy. Instead you need something like phpMyadmin and have to export individual tables.

 

Working with mass updates of product attributes are also a pain. If they could be properly exported in the same csv format they are imported with, updating would be much less complicated.

 

STATS/FINANCIAL

 

Why when there is a field for recording the cost of sale i.e. 'the wholesale price at which you bought this product' does the cart function not include this (not display it obviously) and pass it to the order info. If there was something similar to handle carriage cost then, the gross profit could be calculated for any period (or individual order) by simply adding up (total product sale + total carriage charge) - (any refund + actual carriage cost + the product cost of sale).

I want to have choice to give some customers special discount for every product they buy (not voucher style).

 

Also I want import "Features" of the products - like "Combinations" or "Categories" with extra DB fields.

 

On Home Page I want view the actualy special offer on bottom or in the middle of the Page.

 

I want to have ability delete from footer of CMS the Special, New and Best products (because also when I Deactivate this modules the link is still in footer).

 

I want to have options to change the style of logo description in the home page (editor of home page module), maybe like html text.

 

To find specific text in translations very quickly. (Like in gmail post)

 

More options in many modules...

 

Edit the products in Catalog in Table style - like Excel.

 

To have options also Export to csv file everything what I can import.

 

Thanx for you hard work I appreciate it, and sorry for my English... ;)

module overrides!!!

 

In ps1.4 we have the ability to override the templates that belong to a module. I think it would be great if we also had the ability to override the php files of the module. The best way to do this i figure is the same as we override classes and controllers. So I was thinking about this setup:

 

/overrides/modules/blockxyz/blockxyz.php

I am also FOR AdminClasses overrides! Guys, I think you know jbx_menu as a module? I would be happy if you could merge it with blocktopmenu. Its based on blocktopmenu, and the latest version, 2.7 I think, does not work in Prestashop 1.5 becouse of the class AdminClassTab or something like that. Please merge it :-)! jbx_menu offers pictures for menu entries, you can change the colors, etc. trough the configuration dialouge, which does, like I said, not work under prestashop 1.5.

 

Waiting for reply.
