@kleijn36 Prestools cannot edit warehousing data. That is a limitation of the software. It only gives you a passive overview of what you have in stock.

Hi Kleijn, Sorry to hear you found some problem. I have uploaded an improved version that should solve the problem. Can you download it from your user account?

Recently Prestools had some bugs due to a few structural changes. Line submit had been changed to make virtual product edit work and to increase security the cookie format was changed. It should all work now again. Please notify me if you find any remaining problems. Recent improvements in Prestools: - problems with the mini-module were fixed. - product-solo was fixed. It had been dysfunctional since the line submit fix. Now that has been repaired and also a few improvements have been made. - Integrity checks has been improved and offers now the possibility to repair some problems. - Some minor additional functionality: attribute sort, statistics on categories - Some minor bug fixes

Today I found the same problem in my shop: one product had the url of another. I never used csv import. Maybe something has gone wrong duplicating a product.

One possibility is that for some reason they have all the same link_rewrite field. You could test for this by disabling pretty urls.

Everyone a happy 2018 with good sales!

Prestashop has announced multiple features for 1.7.3. I haven't checked out how they will do it but I would prefer to keep compatibility with them. http://build.prestashop.com/news/prestashop-1-7-3-0-beta-1/

From an user point of view it would certainly be more pleasant when Prestools would use the TB login. However, it is not as easy to implement as you suggest and it might have disadvantages too. Prestools operates outside the TB engine. Only that way can it have complete control over the screen and achieve adequate speed. So in order to use the TB login - that is tightly integrated with the rest of its code - the code must be replicated without that context. That would require a deep understanding of how the TB login works (the shop password is stored encoded and you also need to deal with the cookies that keep you logged in). So this is quite a tough job and I have never found the time and motivation for it. Maybe somewhere in the future, but this has not a high priority. I believe Prestools is quite secure as it is. But of course suggestions for improvement are always welcome.

There are many different ways to get products with specific field values: - you can search for it - you can use the Sort By field. Even fields without a value will appear somewhere either at the top or the bottom. - you can also sort by clicking a column header - Just setting the field in the Search field is sometimes enough. If you search for example for discounts (without filling in a specific value) you will see all products with discounts. And by using the Not operator you can also see all the products that do not have a discount

Any insights from the file timestamps in the modules directory?

It would be great if those Ajax error messages became a bit more explicit - specially when DEV_MODE is on.

Looks ok. One addition for db.php: The function executeS() contains the Tools::displayError() too. It too should be replaced with echo. Contrary to its name Tools::displayError does not display anything. It just returns the value that you give it after processing it with htmlentitiesUTF8(). Elsewhere in the code you see things like "die(Tools::displayError($msg))". It is used in several other places in Db.php too and I propose to replace them all. Note that the main db.php (not of the tbupdater module) uses the throw command. Unfortunately it is not easy to use the main classes in the updater module as the updater module uses a special namespace.

Thank you, Lesley, that worked. The site was migrated from Prestashop. Initially I kept the PS theme. When I later tried to migrate to the TB theme I got a crash and had to copy the theme files manually. Obviously something went wrong in that process. See also my error report about my problems when I tried to switch to the TB theme: https://github.com/thirtybees/community-theme-default/issues/28

On category page of my Prestools webshop I still don't get images - except for products from which I just visited the product page. But that effect lasts very short: minutes at most. This problem is specific for Chrome. There is no problem in Firefox or Microsoft Edge. When I look in the console I see error messages like: Failed to load https://www.prestools.com/39-homedefaultsmaller/discounts-plugin-for-triple-edit.jpg. This stuff with "smaller" and "smallest" is new to me. What does it mean? Why are these not predefined image formats? How is this supposed to work?

It is starting to become controversial. See this article: https://www.trustwave.com/Resources/SpiderLabs-Blog/%E2%80%9CDon-t-Mine-Me%E2%80%9D-%E2%80%93-Coinhive/

Don't forget to re-enable non-Thirty Bees modules. Otherwise you will find that your front office shows only a brown bar as all Prestashop modules have been disabled.

What is going on with the forum? In a week I have gone from nearly 20 unread post to just 3. And that is not because I read so many. Someone is playing with the settings without explaining what he is doing. And I don't find it an improvement.

Windows or Linux?

If you look at the file classes/discount.php in Prestashop you will see that in its header it displays the comment " * @deprecated 1.5.0.1". It has been replaced by classes/specificPrice.php. As TB has thrown out some old stuff it has been discarded. So you will need either to contact the author of the module or experiment yourself with using the specificPrice or specificPriceRule class instead of the Discount class.

Prestools is a suite of user-friendly and very powerful tools to mass edit your products, orders and categories. It is a kind of Swiss Army knife that runs outside your backoffice. You can download it here and find a manual here. There are also an instruction video and a demo website. Prestools was started in 2012 by putting together a small selection of tools for Prestashop. It has since grown steadily to become a comprehensive set of tools for maintaining Prestashop and Thirty Bees. It is one of the most popular downloads on the Prestashop forum. Prestools does not support warehousing. So if your shop uses warehouses you should not use Prestools for any operation in which product quantities are changed. The main parts are: product-edit: great options for mass editing more than 50 product fields. Add categories, change prices, update descriptions - for hundreds of products at once. product csv: a very flexible tool to generate csv files. product-sort: an easy way to sort products inside a category. From position 500 to 1 in a blink. With the visual sort option you can see immediately how things will look. prodcombi: edit and oversee properties of combinations of a number of products at once. order-edit: adding and deleting products and changing prices without problems. order-search: make a selection on carrier, payment type, status, etc. or just search. With csv export option. category-edit: useful for editing metadata and descriptions for SEO combi-edit: assign pictures to your combinations quickly combi-copy and combi-delete: copy, modify and delete attribute combinations using one product as a template attribute-list and feature-list: see how many products use each feature and attribute and get a product list. regenerate images for selections of products cleanup images: save on disk space by cleaning up images of deleted products shop rescue: turn off overrides and non-Prestashop modules when due to some bug you can no longer login in the backoffce. override-list and module-list: get lists of modules and of overrides and the modules might own them. eu-tax: get a quick overview how much you sold in each of the EU countries and how much VAT you withheld in the process integrity checks: find and fix database and file corruption. lots of statistics Installation: Unzip the downloaded file and copy the resulting files to a subdirectory below your admin directory (do not install as a PS module!).You can access the program in the browser like "www.myshop.com/myadmin/mydir/login1.php". You will be welcomed by a login screen: the default username is "[email protected]" and the default password is "opensecret". Please adapt your security settings in the "settings1.php" file. There is a mini-module included for integration into the Thirty Bees backoffice. There is a demo-installation available. Username and password are the default. Below you find a view of the product-edit page where the description field has been made editable: /assets/uploads/files/34/1507463122156preview.jpg Prestools is compatible with Prestashop 1.5, 1.6, 1.7 and 8.0 and Thirty Bees. If you find a problem please let me know. There are a few parts in product-edit that you need to buy at the Prestools website. However, over 95% of the script is free. Among the files you will find a file prestoolssuite-module.zip. You can install this file as a module. It is a mini-module as the only thing it does is adding a link to your Prestools installation in the Catalog menu in the backoffice. If you find a problem, please update Prestools to its latest version before you report it here. When reporting, please mention your Thirty Bees version. Follow the installation instructions! This is not a module!

I still know too little about the Paypal option to make that kind of contribution. And I don't do pull requests.

@mdekker said in Looking for an alternative Paypal module: If you could give us some more feedback about the thirty bees PayPal module that would be great! Everywhere I looked the module was running fine, but it was running under ideal circumstances and all the systems were optimized by myself, so there's a chance we might have missed a few edge cases. It would have saved me a lot of time when there had been some explanation/help function about what payment standard/payment plus/express payment mean. I have seen it explained in Paypal terms. But it is very hard to derive from that how it will affect the layout and functioning of your shop. it looks like the problem that I mentioned and from which I showed a picture has something to do with uninstalled modules being not really absent - but somehow still interfering. But there might also be some problem with the PS Paypal module. Anyway, that is a bridge too far for me to explore. BTW: is it possible to number the posts in this forum. I wanted to refer to my picture in post number 3 and then I found that the posts are not numbered.

Hi, I tried it on TB 1.03 and everything worked ok. What version of TB are you using? Also: what operating system has your server? I just filed an error report because the TB module install under Windows doesn't work correctly - although that has different symptoms and isn't fatal. @Occam: this is a problem with the minimodule that adds an entry to the 30bees backoffice. It is not a problem of the main program. Regards, M

I tried. And my experience was not good. As both modules are called Paypal I unstalled the TB one. I didn't delete it but instead renamed it (that is: the subdirectory under Modules). I often do this when I make changes to a module and I want to keep the old version close so that I can easily put it back. Under Prestashop I have never seen a problem with that. Thirty Bees may be a different. The first sign was that the module stayed listed. Anyway, I could install the PS version and setting it up in the backoffice gave no problems. However, when I went to the front end and tried to make a payment I got this when I clicked the Paypal bar. Note the double bread crumb and the error message. Does anyone have an explanation what is going wrong here?

I am having some trouble installing TB's Paypal module (I made a Github post for that). So my question is whether I can use the Prestashop module instead.
