A few noob questions


Recommended Posts

I'm currently evaluating PrestaShop, and love what I see so far. The installation went smoothly but have a few questions:

 

Suppliers vs Manufacturers:

As I understand, manufacturers are akin to 'brands', e.g. Apple products, Microsoft products etc. The supplier is the warehouse / distro centre you bought it from. If so:

- why is there a link to view suppliers on shop front? Shouldn't suppliers be private? How do I prevent access to such a list?

- Is the data I enter - base prices from supplier / address for example - private?

- If my store only sells products from one manufacturer, how do I disabled the manufacturers list entirely?

 

Prices:

- Is there an option to set tax-included price, and for PS calculate the tax-excluded price? e.g. I want £10.99 as final price, and not have to work out what that base price is?

 

"Best Selling"

- Can I modify what is put there, so instead of it being what I've sold the most, it's a list of items that I want to display there?

 

Localisation

- Being English, how do I modify uses of 'check' to 'cheque'?

 

Security / Safety:

- I can't find much on PrestaShop security. Where can I read more about it?

- Is 1.6 safe to use in production or is it too early yet? I see there are tax rounding issues which could have a major effect on profit / loss.

Hello

 

1,  If you do not want Supplier/Manufacturer information visible in your shop you can disable these modules in the back office

 

2.  Yes

 

3.  Rather than playing around with code, change the name of Featured/Popular products to best Sellers and then add whatever          products to want to "Home"

 

4,  You can use Back office > Localizations > Translations or simply install EN-GB language pack, if you care to look you will find             many instances if EN-US words in prestashop

 

5.  Their are many guides for Prestashop, just have a look at the "Resources Tab" at the top of the forum

ps. it's a good idea to raise a topic for each question
