Benham Collectibles Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 My name is Kristofer and I am very new to PrestaShop. I am also not great with knowing what things to do to set up my store. I have gone through many different open source carts, but find tremendous difficulty getting all of the settings the way I want them. I am wondering if there is somekind of guide that I can read and follow along with that lists all of the options for each setting in PrestaShop. This would keep me from asking 100,000 questions on this forum that all of you have probably answered 20 times in the past. The store is loaded and ready to be filled with inventory, just want things like Paypal and Shipping to be correct when I start selling. Any help would pretty much allow me to keep the store. I do like it alot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benham Collectibles Posted April 25, 2009 Author Share Posted April 25, 2009 So Far it seems to be a pretty good guide, but I having one big issue. I can't seem to find where I need to put the shipping prices for each weight range. Could it be that I am using ounces (oz) or maybe that I deleted the default shipping option that was in the store when it loaded? In the live store, it is telling me in the cart that there are no shippers that will travel to the area I want. I have USPS in the carriers tab, but something is missing that connects everything and I have no idea what it may be. Any help would be great!! Thanks for the link to the guide!!Kris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benham Collectibles Posted April 26, 2009 Author Share Posted April 26, 2009 I probably spent more than an hour trying to do that last night. I added more and more and I am still not getting a table when I click on the shipping tab after saving a new carrier. I read that other people were having this problem with 1.1 and 1.2 versions. It is the table in the guide that has Europe at 1.00 and US at 2.00 when it talks about doubling the amount because the US costs more. When I save the carrier info, nothing shows up and I go back into the carriers and the checkbox that I marked by US is not checked anymore. I even tried the "disable carrier" trick and it still didn't work. Should I upload 1.1 and work with that version instead? I just tried it again and the table with the countries where I punch in an amount is still not coming up. It does have my weights in the top bar of the chart, but it just has the "save" button below that. Not sure what it is, but I know we will figure it out eventually.

Benham Collectibles Posted April 26, 2009 Author Share Posted April 26, 2009 Yes, that is my problem. I have the 1.2 version and I am not the only one with this exact problem. I am currently looking over the php scripts to see if I can find any missing characters or something simple that I can fix. I am thinking about just changing to 1.1 until the 1.2 is fixed, but I have to have someelse set it up for me. I am waiting for him to get up for the day and get on it. Thanks for trying to help me out, but I think we now realize why it works for you and not for me. Thanks!Kris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigboy16 Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 till now i still cant fix that problem, may the team members can help this??? mr phil or someone else may be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benham Collectibles Posted July 1, 2009 Author Share Posted July 1, 2009 Sorry I never posted when I found a solution. I ended up just loading 1.1 into the site and it works very well. I will stick with that one for now until I have a need for an upgraded version. I still am not sure what was wrong with the 1.2 version and the tick box unticking itself. I stopped looking for answers when I changed to the previous version so I am not in the loop about the recent changes. Again, I apoligize about not closing the post out when I felt that I had a solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
