1.6 beta upgrade from 1.5.6 issues


Recommended Posts

So I decided to test an upgrade from 1.5.6 and in addition to the issues I had with 1.6 beta testing here are some upgrade issues.

 

I have a 1.6 beta site and a 1.5.6 upgrade to 1.6 beta.

 

In the 1.6 beta site I have removed all exceptions from the left column so that it always shows and it works as expected.

In the 1.5.6 upgrade site same setup as 1.6 test site but the left column disappears when viewing categories and CMS pages. If I look at the dev tool I can see in the Body tag shows hide-left-column as shown below. The odd one is the same code in the 1.6 site looks different in that it looks as there may be an open tag or something, further down then I have posted here the code changes to black text rather then the color coded text normally seen. As you can see below the formatting is also different in that the 1.5 upgrade has none and the 1.6 does.

 

Code from 1.5 ugrade.

 

<body id="category" class="category category-15 category-velox-v10-parts hide-left-column hide-right-column lang_en" style=""><div id="page"><div class="header-container"> <header id="header"><div class="banner"><div class="container"><div class="row"> <a href="" title="Welcome To Team Shepherd USA"> <img class="img-responsive" src="http://team-..............
 
 
Same code from the 1.6 test site.
 
<body id="category" class="category category-3 category-women hide-right-column lang_en" style="">
<div id="page">
<div class="header-container">
<header id="header">
<div class="banner">
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<a href="" title="">
<img class="img-responsive" src="http://team-.........
 
 
 
In the module positions some positions are not present an example would be DisplayTopColumn, here by default the Image slider is installed.
In both sites I added another hook to the module so that I could position it in the center column just above the tabs section. This allows the left column to position to top of page. In the 1.5 upgrade site I could not remove from this hook without removing the hook from the .php file resetting the module then re-positioning it in the home tabs section.
 
 
 
Update: The issue seems to be in the Database the displaytopcolumn hook was set incorrectly, after changing as below the hook now shows.
Looking at the hooks section from the database and comparing that to the 1.6 test site there are others that are set different and some not present at all.
 
was this
INSERT INTO `pr_hook` VALUES (131, 'displayTopColumn', 'displayTopColumn', ' ', 0, 0);
 
changed to this
'displayTopColumn', 'Top column blocks', 'This hook displays new elements in the top of columns', 1, 1);

 

 

Note: In both sites since I use the left column menu and did not like the depreciating nature of the standard category menu shipped with 1.6 I have overwritten all files with the version from 1.5.6.

 

 

If you want to see them in action to further understand have a look at the two sites below.

Hi

 

Thank you for your feedback. I do not understand all your points, but the above issue should have been fixed by this commit https://github.com/PrestaShop/PrestaShop/commit/e4c33073666071a50883433e328d88047143c0eb

That did change things the graph now works thanks.

 

 

There is also issues with 1.6 and IE8 in that the pages do not seem to load correctly in the back office the header is incomplete with no way to click on View my shop, for the most part all the header info is incomplete.

The icons on the FO also have issues strange though is it is a little better with the upgrade then with the clean install.

This has been greatly improved over the last version but still needs some work.

I realize that IE8 is getting old but there are many many people out there that are still using XP and IE8.

This was just taken from the BO stats page I have no control over the numbers, I still have XP and IE8 and yes I use chrome.

But if I still have XP how many others have it, not everyone is a comp geek, example would be my sister I was at her house and had to convince her Chrome was the way to go.

I understand what your saying though just trying to report the issues I see from what I have.

 

 

Thanks for taking the time.

I looked at the link you posted interesting that IE8 is 4th on the list above IE9, Safari.
