Beermonster Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 I've been using Magento for over 2 years but I'm thinking of moving to Prestashop, I've been having a play for the past few days but just want to know a few things before I go for it. 1) SSL, I've got it enabled but it doesn't seem to be working, nowhere does it show, do I have to do something else? 2) Carriers, I had problems getting the shipping to work, I found out I hadn't added it in the product, as there seems to be no way to bulk edit products have I done something wrong? 3) When filling in a delivery address and someone puts a company name it a VAT box shows, How do I stop this showing? 4) cart2cart, Has anyone used them? would they transfer all my categories as well as products, customers and orders? and would the product be assigned to the correct category? That's it for now, I do have more questions and will be asking them shortly TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guest* Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 If you want to do it on the fly, without any loss of time, so use cart2cart. Yes it's a good service. All your data will be available on your Prestashop after moving with this tool. If you have special questions, so please use their support. Usually you will have an answer between 24 hours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OlivierJM Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 If you already have experience in magento ... I do not recommend Prestashop. Relearning all All versions with bugs all free but pay for professional page modules 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guest* Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Certainly each user has his own experiences... I moved my shop from Magento to Perstashop and I'm happy. Magento needs a special webspace and it's back-office is too complicated and user hostile for me. And of course Magento is also not free of bugs. For good and working modules you should also pay on Magento. so in here absolute no difference. Bugs on Prestashop are quicker fixed as for Magento. For SSL you should take a domain certificate. Shared server certificates are ignored on Prestashop and do not work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guest* Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Please contact your provider, some provider do not accept foreign certificates on their server and you are forced to take one of them. Which Prestashopversion are you using ? If the certificate is correct pointed to your domain than by activating SSL it should work for the whole shop. For some providers only the cart and check-out is protected by SSL. But this is not the normal way if you are using PS 1.5.4.1. The whole shop should change to https:// if the certificate is correct integrated on the server. Check if this solves your problem. If not, so please ask for help from your provider. http://www.prestasho...secure-contents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
