tmac Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Hello Everyone im totally new to this. I recently bought a template & had it uploaded. Im running prestashop 1.5.2.0 I log into my office with the details gave to me by the company that uploaded the template. I started to add/change the categories in the back office. However..when i add a new category, it doesnt show on the website (please see www.sowantedsilks.com) You will see there are only 3 man categories across the top, however in the back office there are 5, but the other 2 wont show on my website. Also when i try and change the website logo, the same thing happens, it shows in my back office, but not on the actual website. I have another website that im working on which runs prestashop 1.4.7.3 and i dont seem to have any problems on that.....can anyone please help!!! many thank tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saad89 Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 go to categories at admin area ans select the category you create. 1- be sure that it is marked as "displayed". 2- edit this category, be sure that you select "parent category", as home.

vekia Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 well, if you change the logo in back office and it doesnt appear on front office - maybe this is cache problem? In this case you should turn force compilation on. Im not sure that the problem is there, but you can check this. and what about categories? just follow saad89 instrunctions 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tmac Posted April 3, 2013 Author Share Posted April 3, 2013 Hey guys..i still havent been able to fix this problem..i sent an email to my hosting company to ask how i select the working cache system..this was there reply & im not sure what to do Hello Timothy, Just to confirm are you wanting us to disable the default server caching system we use on the server itself. We use the varnish caching system on our servers by default and this is already enabled on your server by default. These server caching systems are not an option on your account or server at this time: To use Memcached, you must install the Memcache PECL extension on your server.http://www.php.net/m...nstallation.php To use APC, you must install the APC PECL extension on your server. http://php.net/manua...nstallation.php To use Xcache, you must install the Xcache extension on your server. http://xcache.lighttpd.net Please let us know if there is anything else.
