Prestashop 1.6.1.28

[e-com]

This is what I found interesting: https://eoliashop.com/prestashop-new

I have installed for testing on localhost. There are a lot of bugs on PHP 7.4, and it is completely incompatible with PHP 8. But there are a few interesting solutions to implement into thirty bees.
Or maybe someone knows this guy Eolia and can persuade him to join the thirty bees project, rather than agonising over prestashop himself 🙂

Whats wrong with php7.4? 

I see new software similar to brand new modules in Cars. Its reasonable to abstain from new software as the User becomes a tester for it..

[Beeta]

Send them a request. I already sent mine from here:

Maybe they don’t know thirtybees?

Prestashop 1.6 is only compatible with PHP 7.2, and there are still a lot of incompatibility errors with PHP 7.4 in this fork by Eolia.

I don't know him personally and haven't used his version. But he is an experienced PS Dev and seems to invest a lot of time. So we would surely benefit, if he joins our community (and I guess he would benefit too).

It is more about your modules which are unable to work in 7,4

[Eolia]

Module compatibility was done in 1.6.1.29 😉

@Eolia, what do you think of combining both projects under TB? Would you consider merging your editions here?

And one more question don't you think PrestaShop could not be very happy that you continue to use their name? I believe those releases are unofficial, right?

Edited December 15, 2022 by the.rampage.rado

[Eolia]

Personally it's not my idea.
I became interested in Prestashop in 2009 for several reasons:
- Open Source
- French CMS (like me)
- An active community
- Many possibilities of code and plugins

Since 2015 the dialog with the team has been broken (changes of team, line of conduct, arbitrary choices)
Since Prestashop was taken over by a large Italian logistics company, we feel that they are moving towards a pay-as-you-go SAS type solution as Shopify.
All my customers are in 1.6 and are worried about their maintenance, so I decided to pick up where Prestashop left off.
I am also one of the latest active contributors to the forum.

I do not wish to abandon this community in favor of another.

For me the 2 projects are viable in parallel with, each one, his community :)

[the.rampage.rado]

Hopefully you are right!

Totally agree with this.

I wrote "one of the latest active", not the only one^^
We must be 4 or 5 and none of the team for several years.

Exactly, which could justify the switch to thirtybees which has a whole community to build.

PS is dead, long live TB!

depends which he has, not all can work with php7.4

 

[zen]

It could be really nice to merge works on a main project like this, Eolia 'n Doekia, maybe you can join us here ?

As it's not a US based project anymore 🙂 it might be more appealing.
