ysco Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 Hello shacker,What a great idea to make a prestashop magazine, I have just read it and it looks great and I love it.It is a bit of everything, I like also the tricks how to do , like how to make the background automatically change ( very usefull )And the idea off putting best sellers to the magazine is also a great idea , this way we see what the possibilities are with templates, modules, that works perfectly together with prestashop.And it is a nice thing to promote your site this way ( like mine sample ) that is included, thanks for that..I think if this is a monthly magazine that it should be as sticky in the thread and would be nice to see it also in prestastore.Hope that other members also will give some feedback for this magazine , for a first release I want to say Great job...Keep up the great work and I'm looking forward for the next release.Best regards,ysco..

MrBaseball34 Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Are you going to charge for the mag? Do you pay for articles or are you writing all of them?I would also be willing to do English editing for you. It is apparent that you used a translatorand a lot of things just weren't correct.If you want to publish in Portuguese and then send me an English translation, I will fix up the grammar and spellingfor English readers.

noesac Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Ok here are some rough ideas off the top of my head. Feel free to use any of them: 1) Prestashop evolution - screenshots and side by side comparisons of where it was (v1.0), where it is now (to show how far it's come along), and where it's going in the future2) User picks - favorite mod. What's the module that has helped you the most / your favorite, how it has really helped to transform your site3) Random user submission - your "holy @%@#" moment, e.g. accidentally deleted your database, attacked by hackers etc, and how did you recover4) Interview with Tomer5) Rocky's performance enhancement tips (from the Nethercott website), and maybe another guide on how to use the Google Pagespeed tool6) Maybe a monthly "top 3 tips"7) Forum post of the month8) Every month you could have like the top 5 tips for a particular area (e.g. Jan you focus on Usability, Feb on security, March on SEO etc)9) Handy SQL queries for beginners10) Handy tools and tricks for beginners, such as setting up an SVN, using an FTP tool to perform synching etc.Ok these are just random thoughts, I'll keep posting them here when I come up with them:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
