  1. I can confirm this problem still exists. I've just upgraded to 1.0.3 and the backup files doesn't work. It says there are millions of files to backup and takes forever. We will just have to disable it until it is fixed.

    @DavidP that's exactly what I am doing but I never dared to go past 1.6.1.2 after all the previous problems of upgrading. Lesley fixed most of the problems to give me a relatively stable shop but I have so many fixes that migrating to thirty bees is a real problem - all the problems are carried over. The only way for me to do it is to do a fresh install and then manually move across the customers, products and orders etc. I have a couple of other shops running successfully on fresh installs of thirty bees but migrating from prestashop isn't as good unless you have no third party modules.

  2. I've been looking at this theme, as well as a few others, but what worries me is when I do speed tests and run the HTML5 validator on them, the results are nowhere near as good as the default community theme. These themes might look good, but you could be losing sales if they are slower and not as good for SEO. I'm leaning towards using the community theme and adapting that to suit my needs.

    Thoughts?

  3. @alwayspaws I can't see why it wouldn't upload the combinations. They look correct. I might be wrong but maybe it's because you're using commas to separate multiple values in fields like tags. I don't use tags so I'm not 100% sure, but if you have your field separator set to commas and your multiple value separator set to semi colons I would have thought you need to use semi colons to separate each value. Try it and see if it works.

    To use different prices for different combinations I think you need to create a field called "Impact on price" and for the combination with the higher price enter the price difference.

  4. @alwayspaws In your spreadsheet you have one product not two. A product has to have a unique ID. So by using product ID 500 twice, you are uploading one product with two combinations. As you have two different product names it will upload the first and then overwrite it with the second.

    So your product name should be: At Home Dog Spa Girl Dogs Shampoo Natural Gentle Girl Dog Grooming

    You shouldn't put the combination values in the title - let the shopper select them from the dropdown menu which will be created with your combination values.

    The alternative is to leave it as it is and create two separate products. So the second product would have an ID of 501 and the combination reference would be 501-1

    Hope that helps

  5. @DavidP I'll keep a record of everything I have to manually copy over and then post it here once I've got it working. At the moment it looks like you need to copy the product, customer, address, and order tables and the image directory. Plus of course any other tables for third party modules that you still want to use, such as Amazon & eBay.

    I have a clean url's module on my prestashop store (which has been an absolute nightmare and the cause of most of my problems), but thankfully all I have to do is replicate it into the built in thirty bees settings and all my urls will be the same. If you are going from non standard to clean urls then I guess you will have to setup 301 redirects for each one.

    The other way Lesley suggested to migrate was to make a clone of your prestashop store, delete all the third party modules and then do the migration. That will save you having to manually copy over all the tables and will hopefully remove all the prestashop problems. I'm going to have a crack at the first option though as I would prefer a completely clean install of thirty bees.
