Annoyed customer Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Usually when I design things I use FrontPage or Dreamweaver but this is impossible to use with this store, right? I want to change colors, menus etc but this seems to be a "poor mans" solution where you cannot make any changes. Am I right? Why cant I edit the defalut theme to make it more like I want it? They say it is possible everywhere but HOW??????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
endriu107 Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 Please give us a sample what you are trying to do without effects? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annoyed customer Posted January 15, 2017 Author Share Posted January 15, 2017 Change colors on site, menu bars etc. Everything seems to be fixed and you cannot place it on other locations on the site. You cannot remove information that is written under Our compnay, About us etc etc etc. Everything is fixed and not editable. Why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annoyed customer Posted January 15, 2017 Author Share Posted January 15, 2017 Another good example that I have been working with for 27 hours in a row now: I have a product and want variations of it. Have added 143 different values for the same product. The only thing that changes is the value. Price stays the say for each choice. But that seems also impossible, it only says "Not able to do that" or "Not able to update information" when I go to the Combination choices etc etc etc. Why is that????????????

endriu107 Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 You must be more specific, what and where you are chanege? What exacly version of Prestashop are you using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annoyed customer Posted January 15, 2017 Author Share Posted January 15, 2017 Okay, there is only ONE version of Prestashop to download, I did it yesterday, are you with me? When I add a product clickad "Add product" and give it an image and text, then I go to the Add number in store, after that I go to Price, after that I want to add the variations of this product sop I go to Genreal tab and click the button "Product with variation" and then next I go to Combination tab and add the value table I have with my 143 differt values and click Generate. So far everything is fine. But NOW it happens. Only a message comes up for a few second: "Could not update the settings". WHY?????? Hope you are with me now. You cannot add a product a different way than this, its basic and very simple but the idiot site cannot update it, why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
endriu107 Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 There is a lot of version you can download. Notice that the 1.7 is brand new and still have a lot of bugs. For now is better download latest stable version of 1.6 which is 1.6.1.10 you can do it here: https://www.prestashop.com/en/developers-versions#previous-version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annoyed customer Posted January 15, 2017 Author Share Posted January 15, 2017 Well, since I have uploaded my store and it took about 5 hours to get it on my server, I do NOT intend to remove everything manually again, that will take several days for god sake!!!!!!! What idiots releases a version that is not complete???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
endriu107 Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 It is complete but still have a bugs. Look for example for Microsoft products, they sell Windows and after that give customers dozens patches to fix bugs, people pay for not working solution. PrestaShop is totally free, and like I said 1.7 is brand new so if you want well tested solution you need to choose 1.6 version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annoyed customer Posted January 15, 2017 Author Share Posted January 15, 2017 Well, this is crazy. You must agree with me. When you add a product, you must be able to use a general product with variations. An example. I want to sell a resistor (for those who do not know what a resistor is, don't ask here!!). They come in many variations for the same price. In my case 143 variation of the same product with no price change. So I need to add a "value" table and that is not possible in this store at all. Then it just locks itself and says it cannot update. But not a single word why it cannot update. This is SO stupid that this basic variations is not possible to do, no shop version at all should be released without it. Without this possibility no store can be built, it is that BASIC!!!!!!!!!!!

Dave L Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Well, since I have uploaded my store and it took about 5 hours to get it on my server, I do NOT intend to remove everything manually again, that will take several days for god sake!!!!!!! What idiots releases a version that is not complete???? With 10s of thousands of users of this software without having the issues you are having, one has to ask which is the idiot ! The people on this forum are giving their own time and effort to offer you advice and you treat them so disrespectfully. You are very lucky they are even giving you their time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
