your shop uses Prestashop, not 30b, right?
-
mate, I'm not angry or getting this personal, as I'm a regular 30b user who a few years ago made a choice. I've invested money and time to get my instance of 30b up and running. Probably I will move on when crucial modules will lose support of Prestashop 1.6. Probably I will go for WooCommerce, but not for it wide plugins selection and WYSIWYG customization, but stability of support from payment gateways, carriers and any other crucial external service providers. IMO those things should determine platform of your choosing, not eye candy stuff.
all this stuff you are talking about should be addressed to current 30b maintainers. you don't look as a newbie but still asking questions about things those are not there. believe me, if 30b had a wide selection of themes and WYSIWYG editor, you would read/hear about it.
my 5 cents are just a general view how ppl are now seeing world. eCommerce software is a product as any other for example car. If you are interested in buying one, you study your options and decide to buy it or not. you don't go to manufacturer and yell at him to add something because you, one client per million want it. but when it comes to free software such demanding behavior is a standard.
is 30b the best eCommerce software around the web? for god sake - no. is 30b the best documented eCommerce software? it could be better. but available info is more than enough to make a decision to go for it or not. at least if you have a basic knowledge of web technologies and did your homework on what things will be crucial for you.

No, I don't. There is wrong impression around the web that this sort of application have to be free and accessible by anyone. An illusion, that you can install it by yourself, do some clicking and you are set to be another ebay or amazon.
Prestashop/30b is not so popular/advanced in terms of customization as WooCommerce. I won't make a mistake that Wordpress/WooCommerce is now most popular platform, so there is more modules, more customization ways, advanced WYSIWYG editors and so on. But even with all those goodies available for free, sooner or later you will hit the paywall with more advanced functions of modules or need for a custom code.
Sooner you accept how this works, less disappointed you will be when issues/problems occur.

True true.
But the whole reason I am in this mess is due to loophole. So you get software but it locks you down with limitations that at the end of the day you spend 20$ a month plus 40$ on plugins and anothe r100$ or so that you could just have a site developed and it would have worked you out cheaper. I have tried all ecommerce software and website building software on the global and local market in the past 2 weeks. This will be the 9th time this past 3 days that I am manually setting up products and payment plugins. I've been at this for 4 months now....but you jumped into this loophole yourself, as many others who believed that they can get something for free. doesn't matter if you go open source or SaaS - to bend it to your needs you will have to pay or do many things yourself.

I've looked into sources of Cisero a bit and have questions:
- what advantage is using SPAN instead of LABEL? from what I see in bootstrap docs, when form is in works, label works better because you can 'glue' it to specific input.
- for multiple elements which previously used UL/LI scheme, you choosed DIV/P - any particular reason for this change?
Thank your for your answer.
-
quick answer: no. longer: if there is support for presta 1.6 too, it may work but no guarantee.

I know what it does, but what is the point of it in thirty bees?
the same as main idea behind HTML Puriefier. it's made optional because in some cases it purifies too much. so if it's not good for you, just turn it off.
QuoteHTML Purifier will not only remove all malicious code (better known as XSS) with a thoroughly audited, secure yet permissive whitelist, it will also make sure your documents are standards compliant, something only achievable with a comprehensive knowledge of W3C's specifications.

thx for the info, Attribute Wizard Pro for a half a price is a steal.

I can see a purpose for customer-selectable features: an alternative to customisation. Belt lengths for example, when belts are cut to size and there's no need to track stock by length. Then you can use stock control for the buckles and have a drop-down menu for the length feature.
Anyone who customizes stock has this problem.
Silver cups for example. You want to have stock-control turned-on for silver cups because they're expensive and take time to get delivered and you can't make them up as you go along. But the lettering on a silver cup has ka-zillions of combinations, so the database would fail if you tried to make every combination of letters into a product, and you don't need that anyway because you just wait for an order and then carve the cup.
But maybe I am missing the point.😀yeah, I have a quite similar case when I want to add a choice for customer, but not to track it as variant. I have product X packed in a box, and the box can have a different picture on it. no price change, nothing, and I don't need to track a stock of boxes, because I can print image and put it on the box on demand. now I need to do it with variants, which complicates product stock tracking.

Here is the GIT depot :
https://github.com/Zengraph/cisero
it includes themes and modules, maybe it's not the best way, should they be separate ?
yes, as in TB repo - all parts are separate. and versioning will for sure help;-)
-
thanx for the explanation, I will try to look into this. one codebase with extra smarty templates will be easier to maintain.
-
I have one question about zen modules - are those forks really necessary? from quick code comparison I don't see any revolution in there which override in theme won't handle. as long module logic is the same IMO forks will only confuse ppl. now we have only 4, but what if there will be more?

Bootstrap 5 includes custom designed form controls. In Bootstrap 4 the form controls were using whatever defaults each browser provided. In Bootstrap 5 the form controls will offer much more consistent look and feel in all browsers due to its custom design.

This one also is important difference.

What is the reason for that? I would not advise anyone to accept guest orders as internet is full of people filling in ghost orders.
quite simple - if someone decide to accept guest orders, IMO it should be on the top. and don't be paranoid - it could play well if you limit payment methods for guests.
-
no problemo.
1. Order as a guest - IMO should be put on first position.
2. Last item in product view is half width compared with all others. Also I see there is a dynamic number of items per row (desktop) - I have mixed feelings about it.
3. Text size for mobile looks like the same as for desktop making it quite big and page very long (Samsung S8).
-
from what I see here current demand from community focuses on checkout experience, which of course is important, but what about all other parts of the shop? I don't want to force direction of development, but theme should be 'complete' first, before digging into details, especially those which are important for individual merchant and feet nicely into service mode you mentioned above.

can you add this module to cordwin project? and generaly look into this and make sure that files there are up to date. thanx in advance.

The he/she means the core folder not the module. Jointsystems.org is up and running again now in 1.3. The 1.4 installation has been running well, so far, what are the main adavantages?
now you can change admin folder name.

I have many products with almost the same name. Product code will be quickest way to identify products. Second solution is to rename all products and put something unique in first part of name. But there is 5000+ products, so it will be not easy.
I don't follow... what above info has to do how product listing code looks like?
