Hey, everyone, I'm checking this project and I'm very interested in it, but I wondering if it is still an active project. I've seen that there are a lot of pull requests and issues open. Also, the last release was a lot of time ago. I haven't seen much activity.

In 1.6 there was a rewrite of the whole images section thanks to @wakabayashi and @datakick. In order to update to 1.6 and later you have to follow this guide in the BO -> Images:

It's active. Go through the branches and see what is cooking underneath. 🙂 And there are other BIG projects that are not on github but they took long time to develop.

we are using Turnstile and it is highly recommended by us (you have to register at Cloudflare, but this is quickly done and ok), >> and have a look at Blackhole for Bad Bots - thirty bees store also, this is very useful too !!

Not all stores use Clodflare. The module from the thirtybees repository “nocaptcharecaptcha” also secures the customer registration form.

Merchants can always upload 1px transparent blank images if they only want graphics for only some of the categories.

I deliberately deleted the image for this one category to get the effect of displaying a placeholder image 🙂 Whether this is a bug or not is open to debate. If we decide to display subcategory images, we should add images to all categories. However, many stores do not have a uniform data management concept and add images to some categories but not to others. And with these placeholder images, it looks ugly.

The team is working on a surprise. When they are ready, it will be revealed. 🙂

What is your experience with it? Did it sink your shops or you get lucky and win? My shops experienced vast volatility during 11-14th and right after that a huge swing down. Now I'm like, at least 50% down in impressions. All my vital keyword niches are messed up. It promoted shops that don't sell sporting goods but have a huge market in toys and junk items, it also boosted small, unknown sites that don't look professional at all. Since 1st of January I don't see any further volatility, but I'm stuck on those lower impression levels. "Luckily," January is always a low point for me during the year and I'm hoping a small update will pass around the end of the month. Of course - no blackhat stuff, all links are natural, nothing bad is made SEO wise. Simply a low number of external links and Google thinks you no longer need this first place and moves you to 38th position. What is your experience with it?

It is not just a matter of module compatibility with a given version of Prestashop. This module is based on the SaaS model and requires the “ps_accounts” module to be installed and the store to be integrated with Prestashop servers. Soon, you will have to pay a subscription fee to use these modules, and if you don't pay, Prestashop will be able to disable any modules it wants in any store it wants.

Constant changes aren't necessarily a sign of quality, but yes, it shows activity. That doesn't mean the same thing, though. 🙂 Go with thirtybees.

There is a bug in thirty bees or the core updater that not every time the update runs define('_TB_BUILD_PHP_', '8.1'); in settings.inc.php is updated. It is not critical and you can manually edit this if you're sure the update propagated and your shop is running OK. This isssue was spotted a while back and @datakick advised that it can be fixed that way but nobody tracked down the issue so it's still present for some users in some scenarios.

Personally, I think Turnstile is MUCH better than Google reCaptcha. It's also worth considering changing your anti-spam security.

The module in github from above is for thirty bees and it works flawlessly.

Not all stores use google accounts. 🙂 Turnstile is separate service from Cloudflare. There is no need for your store to be behind it to use Turnstile. Yes, account with them is needed but I advised for this module as it offers smoother flow for the real customers imho.

Hi, I adapted Brevo's (Formerly SendInBlue) PS 1.7 version of their module to work on thirty bees and php 8.3. I didn't test on lower php versions, but it should work on php 8.0+ I believe. It connects and works and, for the price, they offer quite a bit of digital marketing functionality. Module is attached sendinblue_tb_v5.0.36.zip

Updated to fix abandon cart link generation issue with stock Brevo module.
