The images are there. Someone at my web host messed with htaccess to try and fix something not related to htaccess in the end: there was a missing php 7.3 handler on their end but I find that web manager never seem to listen or believe you when you tell them what you think is the issue... So he screwed with the htaccess. Which, I must say, under TB, is much more stable than my previous experience with PS. I can see the images but I need to manually modify the link for them to appear - they are, of course, all in their respective folders in the img. So I am not overly worried but usually, deleting the htaccess or regenerating fix those issues. Not so at the moment. I have cleared system cache, smarty cache, browser caches. Is there another cache I am not aware of? Is full page cache cleared when we clear the cache normally?

Hi! Suppliers, manufacturers and categories images have stopped showing. I deactivated Friendly urls and reactivated it. I deleted the htaccess and recreated it. I regenerated those images after both attempts. Not sure what is causing it and why they are not coming back. Oh! And I flushed the cache manually at each steps. The images are all present and accounted for in the BO...

thirty bees 1.1.1 - pre-release bug hunt
movieseals replied to datakick's topic in Announcements about thirty bees
I can only speak for myself but here what has been my experience: When I was using Prestashop, I had tons of issues. Lots of things and modules were not working right and I spent a lot of time trying to fix things. When I decided to switch to TB, the migration was very difficult - I had more help in a week than in years with Prestashop, not a diss, just stating a fact (for which I am tremendously grateful). Like I stated, the migration was not easy by any stretch, partly because of my lack of knowledge but also partly because there was a lot of bugs. If some modules stopped working, I bit the bullet and found alternatives that worked. I used to need over 250 modules to get my shop to do what I wanted it to do under prestashop. I am down to around 140 in TB! Things are faster in TB and things that did not work well before now do. Prestashop acknowledges themselves in their boards that some of the issues I encountered were due to bugs that were never fixed. I use a super old theme and while I do have to do workarounds to get it to install properly, it is not a major issue. It works as expected otherwise. Most prestashop code works and when it doesn't, it is usually either due to bugs, compatibility issues between modules or, more often than not, server issues (some apache module was not activated or limited, or some php extension was missing). If it does not work, I have always managed to find alternatives or code them myself (with my little knowledge) and things work better than ever. I use to have nightmares and fear overrides - I have almost none now but they do what they are supposed to do. Never any issues anymore with them. I think the logic of getting rid of the bugs and get things running smoothly from the get go is sound. If the base works, then it is much more suitable to build on than trying to patch things along as we go. The lack of some functionalities might be frustrating but I find that 90% of modules work without issues and the rest can be tweaked to work. I for one am grateful and I do not take the view that the software needs to bend to everyone's wills and needs - it needs to be solid, stable and working properly and it is up to us to build on it and adapt if need be. If the platform is strong and solid, eventually developers will flock to it. That is my two cents. -
thirty bees 1.1.1 - pre-release bug hunt
movieseals replied to datakick's topic in Announcements about thirty bees
Here's a bug: there was a mail alert module update yesterday. I am importing 1450 products today, which have no quantities yet. I am getting an email for every single product, warning me that there is no stock. The old mail alert module did not do that before during imports... Now excuse me while I go attempt to clean up my inbox... 😞 -

No problem. It was a pleasure. Glad to hear it works for you too!

How to export all info of products in CSV
movieseals commented on unica e-shop's blog entry in A guid to creat Collapsible FAQ on CMS page
I have used it with no issues on TB 1.1 -
I am using a theme from Template Monsters that I modified for my needs. The Litespeed PS cache works perfectly for me. You can check if it works by looking at the header of your site. You should see something like ls-cache: hit if it works. You should also notice a significant improvement in the speed of page loading. I am not sure what would be the major differences with the Warehouse or Panda themes that would make it not work. The only issue I encountered that was causing caching issues was modules with full page caches that compete with the LS-Cache. The versions of TB I used the cache on was TB 1.1.0 and 1.1.x (Bleeding Edge) and there was no issues with either versions. A quick Google search yielded this contribution from one of the forum members here: http://nemops.com/litespeed-module-prestashop-thirty-bees/#.XdlDYJNKiF0

Just to be clear, are you using the Litespeed server Business edition? The module is useless without that version of the server. Open Litespeed (the free version) does not support the module. The module works well right out of the box with TB for me, but I am using another third party theme, not Panda however. But from what I can tell, with Panda, you should not have any problems. You need to deactivate all the full page caches however in order to use the Litespeed module efficiently.

Will do. We file a bug report via Github? -
Core updater: database migration support
movieseals replied to datakick's topic in Announcements about thirty bees
It does not seem to work for me. I get the following error: ajax call failed with error code 500 -
I absolutely love this module. It is a great initiative. It fixed problems I did not even know I had and it helped me fix others I knew I had but had no idea how to fix them. Great tool! Thank you so much!
-
So far, so good for me. Everything works as expected, even with third party plugins.
-
Installing it today and will run a series of tests as I have a need for geolocation with several modules and it has been a bit wonky in a while. Will keep you posted.

@SLiCK_303 Not at the office at the moment, but I'll post mine ASAP. You are definitely on the right track though! You got the gist!

I have been using the settings mentioned in this prestashop article and it has been working well for me. You need to scroll down to point 4 for the parts related to the sitemap. Whatever does not apply to your TB installation can sort of be inferred from the rest of the information available since the module is pretty similar: http://prestacraft.com/prestashop-seo-guidelines-tips-and-tricks/ It works and I can safely say that I actually saw a difference after implementing most of these tips. Hope it helps!

Yup, that's the one. How does one go about defining hook exceptions?
-
I meant that I disabled the functionality of using Paypal to login. However, that script is still there on every page and it still checks with Paypal, even though technically, I don't need it to. I sometimes disable hooks when I know they call functions I do not need and it does speed things up, but I am not sure what hook contains the login in the TB Paypal module.
-
I am looking for things that slow down the render of my pages and one thing that comes up on every page is a browser warning: waiting for paypal.com As far as I can tell, this is code for the Paypal login, which I do not use. It is disabled in the module yet it loads at every page. I wanted to disable the hook that calls it but I am not sure which one it is and I do not want to accidentally prevent things needed by Paypal from loading. Any insights?

I use this one: https://addons.prestashop.com/en/wishlist-gift-card/16680-gift-card-advanced-solution.html The PS 1.6.1 version works very well with TB and you have lots of options for customization.
-
Yes, same goes for css files - if you put css files in the themes directory, it will override it. Works for modules as well.

For those who might have ran into the same issues I did, here is how I fixed all my issues: I tried several prestashop elastic search modules after my failures with the free TB elastic search module and the various hoops it is associated with. These modules either had the same limitations as the TB one, or they just plain did not work. I found this one however, which actually is compatible with elasticsearch up to the current version 7: https://addons.prestashop.com/en/search-filters/19527-elasticsearchconnector.html The module is pricey but well built and worth every penny in my honest opinion. The only thing that does not work for some reason with TB is the function for error logging. The developer actually had to disable it entirely. Everything else works like a charm. I was able to use the latest version of elastic search, which is blazing fast. The module allows you to use the default search engine if you want while indexing but once the indexing is done, since it is not using the DB, you can actually delete the content of the default search engine tables - and in my case, clear several hundreds of MB from my DB! I now have a DB light as a feather and I tremendously improved the speed of my website and queries. And if somebody searches something, no matter what, it is lightning fast!!! Very impressive. The module requires some tweaking to insure the best results in search, it is so encompassing that you actually need to limit what it searches at times to get more accurate, focused results. But it is worth the time investment to figure it out. Also, if you have a lot of products like me, it takes a while to index but once it is done, there is practically nothing left to do but run a cron job to automatically index new products. I am very happy with the end result and I stopped the never ending ballooning of my Database. That being said, I do want to thank everyone who tried to help me. This forum is lightyears ahead of any other ecommerce platform in terms of helpfulness and response. I really, really appreciate it. Thank you all.

I second that!!!

Issue with Products listing in categories
movieseals replied to movieseals's question in Technical help
No, I have a theme that used to work fine before with other versions of TB, will try to go back using core updater as wakabayashi suggests. Will keep you guys posted on results. -
I have a new issue since migrating to 1.1: - The first two pages of any products pages in categories are the same. If you click on page 2, you get the same listing as page 1. Only when you click on page 3 would you get what would normally be on page 2. Example: https://www.librairiezbookstore.com/en/new-products I tried several categories and I get the same result everywhere. Looked at the code and cannot figure out what is causing this. Any help would be appreciated.
