  1. For $10 a month and no working effort I don't think you can expect that much influence. 

    Why don't you hire another fulltime developer that can work alongside with Datakick? You can develop whatever custom stuff you want to your site but still create PRs and try to stay compatible with this project that you care so much about? 

    If i remember it right Smile asked in the forum for co-founders to the warehouse module. Did you sign up for that?

    All of this is true and well stated, thanks and we all certainly do appreciate the work that goes on on just keeping the animal alive.

    If you read between the lines, we are saying similar things in many respects.

    What I'm saying is that I think the project deserves much more resource than it gets, and that means others directly contributing more to it and getting paid to do so, or some other tangible benefit, by helping. This includes module developers as well as core.

    I realise its a nice community and that I'm the only asshole here because I say challenging things, but I wouldnt bother with this if I didnt also care and want better things for the site.

    There's far too much work here for just one man to both manage everything and be lead developer for.

    There's vast teams out there working on much smaller codebases than this one.

    The whole thing is far too under resourced for what it is.

     

    You are right about this and the business side had always been the problem with Thirtybees. 

    I also agree that it's a fragile project relying on few people.

    But still, Smile and Datakick are the ones keeping this alive right now. 

    I think it's ok to come up with criticism but you can still do with a better tone than you first did and it's also hard to demand that much for the small amounts paid the project.

    One person controlling this entire website should never have been permitted. There should always have been a few people deciding what goes on on this website in a transparent process and certainly a feedback system to allow site owners to feedback about features.

    I never claimed to have rights nor have I demanded anything other than important concepts to be considered instead of thrown out without due care..  but you have no consideration for site owners .... just your own plans and power and you refuse to listen to anyone.

    You don't own this site so far as I know, but you do control it and you shut out others saying commonsense things like "get geolocation accurate'

    Stop acting like an overlord and listen to others.

    I think they have all the rights to decide what they want to do by themself as its financed almost alone by Smile. 

    As you are proposing transparency, would be interesting to know how much you are bringing to the table? 

    I think they listen and also merge alot of pull requests if it's relevant. If you hire your own developer or add pull requests by your own I think they will consider them too but I haven't seen much effort from your side at all.

    I don't know if we will ever see thirtybees evolve beyond a one man band just doing little fixes that suit him

    Some people have serious things they want to do and all that ever goes on is tinkerings without any consultation with anyone else, one guy deciding everything that suits him, ignoring anything challenging or important and just doing whatever is easy that he likes.

    Thirtybees isn't a proper thing professionally managed it's just datakicks way of getting paid to do whatever he likes.

    It's never had a commercial clue at any stage

    You must be this forums most negative person. 

    If you want to get it fixed fast why don't you just pay @datakick or any other developer to do it for you?

  5. I have worked with a lot of ERP systems with currency handling and in those the orders have always been saved in the currency used for that customer. 

    But beside this there have also been a separate currency rate table were the conversion rates have been saved for each day for all specified currencies. This made it possible to always convert each order to different currencies by changing currency on the order by a select dropdown.

  6. I have also learned this the hard way. 

    Now we have backup of full cpanel account, to both remote server at our host and also to our own Google drive. DB is backed up every hour to both two remote locations and also a copy every night that is saved for a longer period.

  7. I am using a 1.6 version of Warehouse. I like the possibility to customize my own way with the Theme editor. An updated theme with similar features would be good. 

  8. The predefined is preferable cause the custom one doesn't work with our filter module.

    Just wondering, when you use length for example in millimeters do you create 1000 predefined features? 1mm to 1000mm? That's an example where we have used custom text.

    We zijn bezig aan een warehouse module. En een aantal andere welke wel betaald zullen moeten worden. Ik denk dat hier ook vraag naar is. Ik neem het op in het design. Maar dit is wel een jaar project. Wil je aan de bouw bijdragen dan kunnen we dit natuurlijk gelijk starten en een eerste deel produceren. 

     

    Bij interesse stuur me even een PB.

    I know this is not English forum but read this in translation mode and found it pretty interesting. 

    What are your plans for new warehouse module?

    Almost there but we had a little bit programing hours this week then expected. So stay tuned! Its always dangerous to mention a date 😉

    I don't think it's a problem for you to mention a date if you just remember to inform any delays or changes. It's the silence that makes people suspicious and wondering.

    We are looking forward to the next release. Thanks for the info.
