    @AndyC please PM me your shop address so I can test it myself. Also, please back office credentials, so I can enable/disable chex module

    These recommendations were discussed many times on the forum, for example this flame from two years ago. Unfortunately, not much was done in the last two years, other than code implementation. Stable and nice codebase is important, of course, but it's not what will attract users. When I look at the last two years, I see a lot of wasted opportunities. There should have been massive campaign to attract ps16 merchants when support for their platform was ending. There was none. Third party developers with ps16 modules should have been contacted, and some incentive should have been offered to them in return for maintaining their modules compatible. For example, their modules could have been highlighted in the 'modules' page in your back offices. Again, this didn't happen. And since then, most of these developers either completely migrated to ps17 platform, or quit the presta-world completely. And there are so many other things that could have been done. Instead, the platform stagnated. The only area that was worked on was codebase. And that just not enough. Two years ago, I wrote: I wonder how accurate builtwith.com data are - they track ~576 sites Now, this web tool tells us there are 509 active thirtybees sites. These two years should have been the best time for attracting new users. Instead, we lost some. This inactivity is what drove my decision to quit. I have no problems working for free on an open source platform. I have problems seeing this work being wasted. If the situation changes I might revert my decision. But I don't see how it could change, unfortunately. Also - I don't want to 'take over', as some of you suggested. While I'm flattered, I don't want to do that. I would really hate doing all those things that I've just complained above. I'd be terrible at that, I'm sure.
  3. fixed in 1.1.x https://github.com/thirtybees/thirtybees/commit/15da223b227dc973ef8d7d448292896ca8b3a27b

    That's a lot of errors. I think that all of those are from browser plugins, though, not from your website. Try to use different browser, or disable all extensions in your firefox

    I don't see it that way, as the company would be hundreds of thousands in debt.

    My module does not handle payments. When you click on Buy button, it simply redirects to url that payment module provided via hookDisplayPaymentEU Note that this url can be external url (paypal checkout page), or some module controller on your server. Either way, if it doesn't work, it's not fault of an OPC module

    To make things clear - by "not being interested" @lesley means I turned down his offered to sell me the tb company. The asking price was 30x more than I could (or would) ever pay for it. And frankly, even if the offer was 30x lower, I'd still have to think very very hard about it.
  9. Upgrade your tb to bleeding edge. This issue is already fixed there

    I may be a good developer, and I could surely lead the technical side of the project. But I don't think I could do the business part -- and without it, we would end in the same mess we are now. Let's not jump to any conclusions, or spread unfounded rumors. The supporters money goes to tb company for sure. As far as I know, @lesley regularly sent them (and then some more) to @Traumflug while he was still working on code, as his monthly stipend. I truly believe there was no 'fund misappropriation' here.
  11. change lines 1256-1257 from $output = array(); $output = array('skins' => '', 'layouts' => ''); to $output = array('skins' => array(), 'layouts' => '');
  12. This Vary problem would occur when your page contains image url like http://www.domain.com/my-image, and this url returns different content for different user agents. That's not the case with thirtybees. We have different urls like http://www.domain.com/my-image.webp and http://www.domain.com/my-image.jpg so there's no ambiguity for cloudflare at all.

    Let make something clear - my decision to leave this project was never about money. I was never an employee (or owner) of thirtybees. While my contribution was mainly for free, it was not selfless. It brought me a lot of recognition in the community, and subsequently a lot of job offers and modules sales (and I'm grateful for all of you for that). I was also occasionally hired and paid by @lesley for particular jobs (like stripe module overhaul), so I did earn some money out of this. My decision to leave was based on my longtime frustration with the current status. I know Lesley is/was seriously ill, and it's probably one of the reasons why this project is now drifting without any direction. What this project need most is an active leadership, and I'm afraid Lesley just can't provided that at the moment. I was trying to keep this project afloat for a long time now, maintaining good spirit, and faith in the project. But I just can't do that anymore, because I don't believe that the things will change anytime soon.

    I have no idea. I was never part of tb company. Just a volunteer with github access 🙂 I guess it's just @lesley

    Goodbye

    No, I'll still maintain and extend my existing modules, or even create a new one. I'll just stop fixing bugs in core, implementing new features. And probably limit my presence on the forum

    Hi everyone, I just wanted to say good bye to all of you. I decided that I will no longer participate on thirtybees project development, as it takes too much time and effort on my part. Lately I was feeling like I was the only one pushing this project forward. And I'm not even affiliated with the tb company, I was just a volunteer doing this for free. It's been a fun journey, but I think it's time to move on. I wish you all good luck with your stores Petr
  17. I don't really care that cloudflare doesn't support this header, as it's not used in decision process at all. If browser send information that it can handle webp format, it will receive webp images, otherwise it will receive jpeg. For older browser this means they will always receive jpeg. If tb webp feature is used (and fixed), it will work regardless if you use cloudflare or not. I
  18. Oh, I take this back. There's a bug in thirtybees core that actually does not do the check correctly -- so you are right, this config can fail for some old browsers.
  19. There's no need for any of this. Thirtybees generates different html content for different browsers. If browser supports webp, the image links in the page will have .webp extension, otherwise image links will have .jpg extension. Since dynamic html is not cached by cloudflare, there's no issue at all. Works like a charm
  20. Innodb engine is a must. You should ask your hosting provider to enable this on youd db server... Or switch hosting
  21. The problem is that order is created "after" payment is already processed. And it's just not possible to NOT create it at this time. The money are already on the way, so we need to track it against some order / customer. If the stock meanwhile decreased to zero between the product was added to cart and order was paid, the result will be order on backorder. It's not possible to fix this problem completely, not without fundamental change to ordering process.There will always be some timespan when this can happen, we can only limit it to the minimum. For example by checking the availability just before the customer is redirected to payment gateway. But with 3DSecure / SCA / SMS confirmations the payment can take a long time, so this issue can still occur. Regarding your question -- no, you can't use this with chex. But I'll add this 'last second' availability check to limit this to the minimum. Will be in the next version
  22. that sounds like a browser cache issue to me
  23. did you clear server and browser cache? Also, if you use cloudflare or similar service, clear that cache as well
  24. I remember a joke about intel processor FDIV bug. It was something like A: Hey Pentium, could you calculate 5.0 / 2.0 for me please? P: Sure, it's 2.51 A: But that's not correct... P: Yeah, but look how fast I get the result With FPC you can pretty easily get to the same state. You should test your site extensively, and check how modifications propagates across different areas of your site. For example, if product becomes unavailable, look if it's marked correctly both on product page, and on category page... I'm afraid you will find plenty of inconsistencies soon
  25. Link to github repo?
