Prestashop 1.7 was released in november 2016. The fall in users is much more recent. I see two potential reasons:
- since 2021 Prestashop is owned by an Italian firm, MBE Worldwide. As a consequence the project is now split between an opensource project and the corporation. It now is released in two versions: the opensource version - only available on Github - and the "Edition Basic" that is available on their website prestashop.com. The problem is that the "Edition basic" contains a dozen extra modules that add nothing in shopping functionality but tend to make the software less stable.
- In the last year they have made it increasingly hard to install Prestashop under Windows with Xampp or similar programs. It is now almost impossible (once installed running is no problem). This may also be a consequence of the increased influence of volunteers on the project. These tend to be Linux nerds who look down on Windows. They forget that Windows is often the first place where try out Prestashop.
I want to adapt the tax rate of a country on the tax rules page. However, when I click the edit button nothing happens. When I look in the browser console I see an ajax call that returns false.
I am using version 1.6.
What could this be?
The yellow background is for products with the depends_on_stock flag set.
It puzzles me a bit why someone would depend on a background color to see that a product is out of stock. A search for products with quantity lower than 1 would seem much easier. But I can add it as an option if you want.
I will think about it. But at the moment I don't see how to do this without making the page more confusing.
I don't know what you refer to in your second paragraph.
Yes. Note that there are two widths, weights, etc. One is a field in ps_product used for shipping. The other is a feature.
The fields used for calculating shipping costs have been called shipwidth, shipheight, etc in Prestools
I understand that it would be useful for you. But it would be a lot of work for me. So I would need to charge you some money to add it. You can pm me if you want a custom addition.
Prestools doesn't support warehousing. That is a limitation. Few people use that, it is complex and its functionality has been reduced In Prestashop 1.7.
I doubt whether you ever will see such a function. With discounts, carriers, etc the product information is enormously complex. The product-edit page has a csv export function and if you have concrete demands we can look.
Makes me wonder what you are doing. I have uploaded a new version. Maybe it helps.
People like to preserve their settings1.php when they upgrade. But that is not a good idea when new fields have been added. So you need to take the new settings file and enter your credentials and choices in it.
When you enable the field you see how it will look like and how it works. The only thing that doesn't work is the submit. I don't understand what you mean when you ask for a demo.
Most people who buy the package use some plugins more than others. That is one of the reasons why it is much cheaper than the sum of the parts.
Hi Obi,
Thank you for your report. The problem only happened when you had selected subcats AND you displayed the position field. I have fixed it in the attached file.

Thank you for liking Prestools. I have uploaded a new version that may solve some of your problems.
- stock is one of the optional extra fields that you can select.
- I fixed one bug in products-sold, but as you didn't provide details I am not sure it is the one you meant.
