    My concern with thirtybees is that is strongly tied to PS 1.6. PS 1.6 is becoming increasingly obsolete. I am grateful to datakick for keeping this project technically alive but without thirty party support (modules, etc) I don't understand how our user base should grow. Which means we're on life support and only users who are happy to customise extensively and have custom modules etc. will continue to use it ... until perhaps they don't anymore because certain expected features are unavailable. We do have premium modules but they aren't exactly attractive and would make me want to be a subscribing user.

    In our opinion, ThirtyBees is getting stronger, albeit very slowly. We've had more users coming on board, new sites being created, and new modules added and our recent campaigns have had some success in getting reviews etc. which are certainly better than some recent reviews for some other platforms that we're not going to mention here, even with version 8 or whatnot.

    The problem is that it's kinda the classic "chicken and egg" scenario - we need more support and more users in order to grow and to attract more module developers etc, which will hopefully grow the userbase even more. More support will also enable us to employ more developers and develop more features. The main problem is funding - and support. With it we we can reach the stars. The alternative is a slow battle, and it takes guts, passion, a dash of insanity and lots of time with limited resources to get there. But we're not dead or in a coma or 'life support' yet. On the contrary, our pulse is getting stronger and for it to get even stronger, we need more of the community to stand by ThirtyBees and lend us their support - so we can literally do more and make ThirtyBees thrive and be there for the community. Chicken and egg. The community needs ThirtyBees and ThirtyBees needs the community. When this works, everybody wins.
     

  2. Hi everyone

    We've updated the Shops using ThirtyBees page + home page banner as requested.
    https://thirtybees.com/powered-by-thirty-bees/shops-using-thirty-bees/

    If your site isn't on there or if there's an issue, please let me know and we'll sort it out asap.
    Thanks to  @the.rampage.rado and everyone else concerned for creating the list and everyone who submitted their sites!

    I must say, seeing these sites, I was super impressed - some are even giving Shopify and Prest*sh*p a run for their money - especially in terms of designs.
    Obviously our sites are on ThirtyBees, so they're just better anyways 😉

    Well done to all, and keep up the good work and please remember, if you haven't already, to please support ThirtyBees and become a member 😉
    Your support helps us keep ThirtyBees alive and help it grow and thrive!

    It's design stuff and I know datakick prefers not to do such. 🙂

    Please dm me what you need. And we can take it from there. Design stuff, UI/UX is more my speciality.

  8. Hi @Rhapsody

    You can close the boxes and they will go away for a long period - just select the option to dismiss them for a time.
    The boxes are just there to encourage support. Another way to make the boxes disappear for good is to become a backer. These boxes will then not be shown (except for a Thank you message). Your backer level will be shown under the logo (silver member, etc).

    We understand the resistance to change, but it could've been worse. TB needs money / support to survive and thrive and to continue providing an amazing e-commerce platform that is making it's merchants money - for free. We'd like to not go the full subscription route, but we need to do something.... Or there is literally no more ThirtyBees as we know it. Hope you understand 😉

    The title pretty much states my question, but for the sake of clarity. . .

    Has the Image Hover feature that is/was available in Prestashop 1.6.x ever get "ported" over to Thirty Bees?

    The last time I did a migration attempt, this feature was missing in TB1.3.

    I began using the image hover capability for product display in my Prestashop 1.6 store for two different purposes and have been waiting for Thirty Bees to implement this feature before attempting another migration. My catalog has around 17,000 product records, most of which use custom "product templates" displayed in the "pa_content" container to give the products in any given range/group/category a more immersive and distinctly identifiable presentation. This was accomplished primarily thanks to Panda Theme v1.2.

    Previous migration efforts proved to be a touch more complex than anticipated, and while a migration was ultimately successful, it was not stable. The Panda theme used (1.4 IIRC) did not work as it should with the most difficult to correct being the image display along with a few other elements did not work reliably (their change of the style class names between versions made the old css unusable which required a rewrite of 2000 lines of css code) but even then, the unstable display of images (sometimes would display correct, sometimes not) ultimately forced me to abandon that migration. I've since decided I am willing to revisit this issue without using Panda going forward, and may be willing to discard some of the highly customized and unique overall presentation of the current site if necessary, but I refuse to give up what I consider to be basic features that afford better user, customer service/interaction, and administration functionality to my site because of "upgrades". (I also use a few modules that I have since ported to run under TB.)

    To illustrate the unique nature of the site and why this is such a difficult move for me (because I am losing so much in the visual sphere): (home page)

    Hi

    I use Panda for ThirtyBees and I can confirm that the product hover effect works in ThirtyBees. Whether it's now a default thirtybees feature is another story. However, seeing that you're already using Panda, it will probably not be too much of a mission to migrate your site to ThirtyBees. Also, Panda has been patched several times for ThirtyBees, so grabbing the latest version of Panda, plus applying the patch in the directory is advised.

    I looked into that long ago but decided against it. What we need is really only a good module to upload new pricelists. I have found what seems a very good one that can do much more from Myprestamodules. I have very good experience of the developer, we have more modules from him, and he also test them against tb. So it will be that one.

    Thanks anyway.

    Hi
    So did you try the module from Myprestamodules? And how is it for you?

  13. Hi

    I'm looking for an excellent Product Import module, that does the following

    • Import from either CSV/XML, Upload, Google Sheets or XML/CSV live URL from Warehouse/Supplier
    • Imports full product attributes, like: Combinations, Features, Manufacturer, Shipping weight/dimensions, everything
    • Hopefully imports all the above in one import, without having to feed different CSV files for attributes, etc
    • Cronjob compatible
    • Is reliable, proven and stable
    • Can be PS 1.6 but TB compatible module
    • Is not StoreManager (too expensive)
    • Is not DataKick Import (sadly no CSV support 😞 )
    • Has a reasonable price

    I've been looking but haven't found anything suitable so far. If you guys have any suggestions, that'd be seriously helpful. 

    Thanks

    Hello everyone! I'm new to the group, but I'm very enthusiastic about this endeavor. I own a web hosting firm and would want to contribute monetarily and ultimately with development time to this project. Who is presently receiving contributions, and what are they used for? There seems to be a schism between this site and github.

    e do have such mechanism -- error handler collects 500 errors and saves them inside /log/ directory. 

    What I'm suggesting is the mechanism should maybe monitor the 500 errors / log files and fix automatically instead of having to scan the whole module directory. 

    All this is in the context of these errors being fixed automatically.
