Hello World

[emty]

Hi all. emty from Melbourne Australia. First forum I have joined! Started building a website 2 weeks ago. Read a little and started with vanilla oscommerce. Read a little more and upgraded to OSCMax - data and all. Pretty smooth upgrade considering I knew nothing about SQL, HTML, PHP and that other stuff you guys talk about. (P.S. I am an engineer by profession but the last coding I have done was some 25 years ago!) I think that says heaps for the package and advice from contributors - so well done! I hope to go live next week after I set up the payment modules.

I have a couple of questions/observations that I cannot seem to find answers for. I will state them here but probably should post them in some forum - when I work out where. In regards to OSCMAx V2.0.25 :-

1. In contradiciton of some documentation and forum reports, there does not seem to be an arrow (more) in my wishlist box on the right of screen similar to the shopping cart.

2. Unless I am missing something, the "add to basket" buttons when viewing a product should probably say "add to cart" - to be consistent.

3. And my big want. To avoid changing the price on every product individually, is there a way that I can apply a % increase (or decrease) to all products or a subset of products?

Just found the Price Adjuster Addon so I guess Q3 is go! Just goes to show what you can find when you join the forum.

1. In contradiciton of some documentation and forum reports, there does not seem to be an arrow (more) in my wishlist box on the right of screen similar to the shopping cart.

This is fixed in v2.1 but if you want to backport it to v2.0.25 for your store you will need to add after $boxContent = ''; on line 28 of catalog/includes/boxes/wishlist.php

$boxLink = '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_WISHLIST) . '"><img src="images/infobox/arrow_right.gif" border="0" alt="more" title="more" width="12" height="10"></a>';

2. Unless I am missing something, the "add to basket" buttons when viewing a product should probably say "add to cart" - to be consistent.

That is because I am in the UK and I did the buttons! Oops! If you want to create a new button for your store ... Try here. The default ones are created using Button Workshop.

Ps. Welcome to osCmax!

If you have assigned product numbers, then you can use EasyPopulate to download a subset of the products, apply the price change in a spreadsheet, then upload. No additional contribution required.

Thank you both for your help. I give them a shot - and I 'll sign your petition pg.
