  1. And be more secure and faster as well.

    Panda Theme

    This module offers infinite scroll and is compatible with thirty bees, https://www.presta-shop-modules.com/prestashop-17-modules/36-infinite-scroll-module-for-prestashop.html
  3. Could you make a pull request giving the payment types descriptions you think might be adequate? You can use the label attribute or the tool tip on the helper.
  4. What does your server error log say?
  5. The messages should work still and the reviews as well.
  6. Connect your Google Analytics account in the GAPI module. We have started disconnecting some of the normal stats, so that no longer works with internal stats.
  7. You can download the installable package, extract it, and upload the files.
  8. If he is not maintaining it anymore maybe he would be open to opening up the source code and making it open source.
  9. Hmm, if we make changes to it, how would people get them unless we distributed it? But that would be against the license, unless he wanted to open the license up. Also, that theme needs a good security check, it was one of the themes that had hacked modules if I am remembering correctly.
  10. I would recommend this module, http://www.presto-changeo.com/en/prestashop-modules/30-prestashop-private-shop-module.html see if it does what you need. Tomer said they would support thirty bees.
  11. Are you just wanting to restrict the prices, or access as a whole?
  12. I am sure it will. Its not a main source of income, but if we diversify it will always help.
  13. It already has the option to throttle it to a percentage and also add or remove cores, so you can tune it fairly good. As for the front office, I have kicked that idea around in my head and I am leaning towards no on ever doing it. The reason being is I think I could hurt stores reputation.
  14. As I mentioned before, I needed to run a simple test to see how the settings worked. We made an opt in only module around the whole idea, https://thirtybees.com/blog/donation-mining-to-support-open-source-software/
  15. Also, it is something we have talked about tying into a reward system as well.
  16. We ran the test for around 24 hours and it had made about 45 cents. I am going to write an article tomorrow about, I am hoping that article will get some traction and the module as well. I am going to turn it on again just for that post to see how much is generated from an article though, but just on that article page.
  17. Let me be totally honest. Time is very valuable to us. For a limited test like this, it took me around 3 minutes to put the code on the site. It would have taken a couple hours to write an opt-in that worked with the code. In that time I could have written and released the module like I have. Plus, the information I would have gotten would not have been as valuable, because most people would have opted out. Anytime you access someone else's site, there is a chance for analytics to be gathered and scripts that you do not want to run, to be run. None of ours are nefarious. But users still opt to block everything, which makes it hard not only for shop owners, but owners of free products as well. That was a reason we developed our Google Analytics with a php fall back to track users. Because there is value there. We all want to produce some awesome things with thirty bees, that is why we are looking at different ways to fund the project for the future. Like I mentioned in our Google Analytics article, around 30% off all users to the site block ads. So that is a consideration in figuring out funding strategies. At the same time, like I mentioned earlier in this post, I don't want us to rely on sales blog articles. What value does an article pitching a paid module that you can buy offer to most merchants? Likely none, if they needed the module they would have likely purchased it, or started shopping for it. But on the same hand, what value does an article that gives black friday tips that do not require any money spent offer? Or an article explaining how to do free a/b testing? These are the articles that I see as a real value to our merchants. Articles that can help them grow their store, increase their conversions, without trying to sell them on something. These take time to do. An amazing amount of time to be honest. The A/B testing articles took around 30 hours, just for the main article, the how to, and the changes to the module.
  18. J'ai abordé les préoccupations ici, je faisais un test pour un nouveau module ce matin. Le code a été supprimé. https://forum.thirtybees.com/topic/868/you-are-mining-monero-crypto-currency-when-using-thirtybees-com-website/
  19. Thanks. Yeah, the new module basically uses coin hive to mine Monero as a donation to thirty bees. It will only affect the back office of the sites and only the administrator's computer. It does not use any kind of server mining, just an in the browser javascript miner. I have just been looking into alternative ways of monetization. When I look at all the other big e-commerce platform sites, they have blog posts, but they are always to sell something. Like a module (or groups of modules) or an affiliate service. I am trying to find a low impact way for us to make content that is actually relevant to users and will help them out. Not is just a pitch for the new latest greatest module that might not increase your sales.
  20. uBlock does block coin-hive. It is disabled now, I got the data I needed to finish up the module. I am going to release it and an article about it tomorrow.
  21. Nice catch. Yes, I was actually testing it out this morning morning to make sure that the settings that I have written into a new module we are about to release are working correctly. https://github.com/thirtybees/donationminer Sorry for the troubles, but I thought it was a good way to test how the settings were set by default.
