Issues in Prestashop


Recommended Posts

Hello everybody.

 

This is my first time writing something in this forum. Been reading a lot here, as I am installing and developing my own Prestashop store. I would like to ask some questions about this software if this is alright. Forgive my english, its not my first language.

 

Installing this software is perhaps the easiest thing I have ever done. Went smoothly like nothing was ever wrong with it. The issues I am having has come up after installation, and they are driving me insane.

 

Problem clarification: When adding a product to the shop, every other time or so, I keep getting errors that faults it back to the start, and it reloads the entire product add page (wiping out all I have written). It gives me strange errors like: product must be in default category (yes it is already), product must be in at least one category (it is already), and so on. Also it keeps giving me http errors if I try to upload more than 3 images at the time, which is not good, considering I could upload 20 images in a batch with Magento no problem to the same host. 

 

This is really driving me crazy at times. I am trying to add about 2000 items to this store, and its taking twice as long when it behaves like this. Is there any remedy towards this issue? Some patch I forgot (installed latest version about 2 months ago)? 

 

No cart has ever given me this kind of problem before, and I think actually I have used all major ones there is (Magento, X-Cart, Zen-Cart, OSCommerce, so on and so forth) throughout the years, so I am not new to this whole PHP and cart things. I just don't know how to start troubleshooting a software I didn't develop myself, so I am asking this community for help.

 

Anyone else had these issues?

 

Thanks.

Update:

 

Here is one of the things that pops up. 

 

3 errors 

  1. This link_rewrite field is required at least in English (English)
  2. Products must be in at least one category.
  3. This product must be in the default category.

How this occured: Added everything successfully, and in the end I added pictures to my product. No errors up until that point. When the pictures were fully uploaded, I chose the front picture I wanted, and pressed "Save". And about a nanosecond after that, this error occured.

 

Can anyone explain why this happens? All fields were in order, so nothing is left out of the product requirements here.

 

Luckily it didn't restart this time, as Prestashop also enables you to autosave when you add product attributes, so only the pictures weren't added, so I had to readd them.
