With its help product option alt text values will be updated, what will help to correct displaying of the options on invoice page in the store. text/html 2015-11-28T23:25:47+00:00 https://www.arscommunity.com/wiki/x-cart/apply-taxes-at-once?rev=1448753147 X-Cart has a pretty complicated tax system. A store owner is able to create a tax list and apply it to each product separately. Also there is an ability to apply some specific tax to all currently existing products. It might work if you've got a static list of products, however if you constantly add new ones, some day you might just forget to apply the required tax to new products (that is done on a product modification page). text/html 2015-11-28T23:25:47+00:00 https://www.arscommunity.com/wiki/x-cart/auspost-integration?rev=1448753147 Preparation The Australian postal service has got the ability to integrate it's services with the X-Cart back-end. Which will allow to use only the X-Cart admin area to make all of the actions related with the posting goods. According the “eParcel Integration: Accessing eParcel using customers' own systems” document, the integration is including the following steps: text/html 2015-11-28T23:25:48+00:00 https://www.arscommunity.com/wiki/x-cart/cdseopro-zeus?rev=1448753148 A lot of people use Zeus web server, some of them face a problem with CDSEO Pro module work with the server. It is strange to see that the recommended rules do not work in some cases. As a result URLs generated by the module are not loaded properly, and you can face a redirect loop. text/html 2015-11-28T23:25:48+00:00 https://www.arscommunity.com/wiki/x-cart/dazzle-problem?rev=1448753148 Dazzle module, commonly used nowadays, does not work with X-Cart 4.2 branch. Usually its work crashes with the following message: *Warning*: array_merge() Argument #1 is not an array in *modules/DazzleXML/xml_generation_form.php* on line *21 The reason is pretty simple - $HTTP_GET_VARS and $HTTP_POST VARS arrays are empty. You should just replace them with $_GET and $_POST, after that the module will work properly. text/html 2015-11-28T23:25:49+00:00 https://www.arscommunity.com/wiki/x-cart/discount-coupons-problem?rev=1448753149 In some of the cases the coupon discount is bigger then it's presupposed by the coupon settings. It's pretty old X-Cart bug, but it still exists. This problem is raised by the following code in the include/func/func.cart.php: if ($discount_coupon_data["coupon_type"]=="absolute" && $discount_coupon_data['discount'] > $total) { $discount_coupon_data['discount'] = 100; $discount_coupon_data['coupon_type'] = 'percent'; } text/html 2015-11-28T23:25:49+00:00 https://www.arscommunity.com/wiki/x-cart/from-mail-process-order-bug?rev=1448753149 In X-Cart 4.x branch (and probably earlier ones also) notifications about processed orders have the store order department address as a “from” e-mail address value. As a rule, all order and other notifications are delivered with customers' addresses in the “from” field, however the notifications about processed orders come from your own order department address. And that is absolutely wrong. text/html 2015-11-28T23:25:50+00:00 https://www.arscommunity.com/wiki/x-cart/index?rev=1448753150 * Apply all of the taxes to every product in X-Cart * JavaScript errors logging in X-Cart * How to skip PayPal express checkout confirmation step in the X-Cart? * PayPal express checkout and One step checkout module * X-Cart AusPost integration * X-Cart W3C validation fault * Option or variant values are not saved in X-Cart AOM module (Advanced Order Management) * X-Cart and CDSEO Pro on Zeus server * X-Cart problem with the pop-up images * X-Cart software speed up process * … text/html 2015-11-28T23:25:50+00:00 https://www.arscommunity.com/wiki/x-cart/javascript-errors-logging?rev=1448753150 X-Cart shopping cart has got powerful tools for PHP and MySQL error logging. However nowadays it is even more important to track JavaScript errors. Usually a store owner just does not see such errors until he gets calls from disappointed customers. It is not wise to lose customers and orders due to such errors, especially since there is a simple solution. text/html 2015-11-28T23:25:51+00:00 https://www.arscommunity.com/wiki/x-cart/multiple-level-categories-menu?rev=1448753151 In order to create X-Cart multiple level category menu similar to the one you can find here (try a few levels deeper and you will see how good it is), you just need to follow the simple instructions below. First, you should modify X-Cart default category menu template (skin1/customer/categories.tpl) and include our new tree instead of the default flat category system, here is the code: text/html 2015-11-28T23:25:51+00:00 https://www.arscommunity.com/wiki/x-cart/paypal-express-and-one-step-checkout?rev=1448753151 If you want to use the PayPal express checkout and the One step checkout module, you might found that it's not compatibles by it's architecture. With the PayPal express checkout, your customers are filled the information on the PayPal side, and then they are back to your site for the order confirmation. But with the One step checkout, the information (including the payment information) is collected on one page and there are no any confirmation step. So here the problem with the comparability. text/html 2015-11-28T23:25:52+00:00 https://www.arscommunity.com/wiki/x-cart/popup-image?rev=1448753152 When you use the pop-up detailed images module (like the one in <http://gemaffair.com> store on product detail pages), you can face a well-known common problem with pop-up images.

The customer should confirm the order here. In most of the cases it's better to skip it in the following way. You should open the payment/ps_paypal_pro_us.php (or payment/ps_paypal_pro_uk.php if you use the UK solution) in an editor and find the following line: text/html 2015-11-28T23:25:55+00:00 https://www.arscommunity.com/wiki/x-cart/speed-up?rev=1448753155 Here I will describe the X-Cart software speed up process, based on the <http://justbedding.com.au> store.

If you try to enable clean urls functionality, category pages will not meet W3C compliance rules. The reason for that is in a function func_qs_combine used in include/func/func.core.php file. The following part of the code should be replaced:
