Havouza Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 I am sure here is some pS module developers on the forum. I am curious, how does the addon demo site work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wakabayashi Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 I am not sure what you mean!? If it's clearly ps related, then this is probably the wrong place to ask it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havouza Posted June 1, 2017 Author Share Posted June 1, 2017 I dont think so. If you want to buy a ps module, most of them you can see live on a demosite. I am just curious how it work. They all look the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wakabayashi Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 Well as far as I know, they just install a new ps for this demo purpose... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dynambee Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 Yup, I think all those demo sites are just a standard PS install with the module installed, and usually some backoffice features removed or disabled so guests can't mess things up too much. The dev usually keeps a backup of the demo store and periodically restores it so that things don't get too far out of hand with demo data / tests entered by various potential customers.

Traumflug Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 There's a demo mode, accessible on the dashboard page in the upper right corner. AFAIK this disables stuff like completing a purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havouza Posted June 1, 2017 Author Share Posted June 1, 2017 And TB team made some script for better security I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traumflug Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 No, not sure. I mostly know this from seeing _PS_MODE_DEMO_ in many code files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wakabayashi Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 Probably thats something different... In guess this is "catalog-modus", which can be activated under settings -> products... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havouza Posted June 4, 2017 Author Share Posted June 4, 2017 It is interesting that no one seems to ´know how it works. I was sure the demo site is something PS provide and if you look at the link to a module demo it is obvious it is like that http://addons.prestashop.com/demo/FO17816.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wakabayashi Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 You are wrong. They are using iframes... The demo site is hosted here: https://prestafox.com/prestashop/landing-page/pts-viva/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havouza Posted June 4, 2017 Author Share Posted June 4, 2017 So you mean that every developer has a shop site that looks exactly the same. Then it must be a special version that PS provide. Another perhaps more interesting question. Modules that I buy I must keep track of updates myself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then it must be a special version that PS provide. If they all use the included default PS theme then they're all going to look the same. I would expect everyone to use the default theme, why do anything else? Edit: Could very well be a PS store requirement to use the default theme for demo stores. Not sure, never built & sold a theme.

Havouza Posted June 4, 2017 Author Share Posted June 4, 2017 But still it is some version where you can shut off most things. Nothing that can be done on a normal shop or? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dynambee Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 I would imagine that "shutting off most things" just means creating a "demo account" user with most permissions unchecked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havouza Posted June 4, 2017 Author Share Posted June 4, 2017 ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wakabayashi Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 I really don't why you care so much about this ps thing!? But maybe what you mean, is the settings "Permission" in the backoffice. There you can disable all the backoffice features. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
