Customer Addressing on Emails

08 April 2013 - 12:53 PM

I'm currently updating my store's html email system - big enough job in itself as those that have worked with newsletters will no doubt attest.


Anyway one of my recent thoughts was "How does everyone address their customers?"


Addressing them as "Dear (Mr/Ms) First Last"  seems so formal and was wondering about using "Hi (Mr/Ms) First Last" instead


What do you do?
Incidentally the question arises for both plain, as well as, html emails

SEO Question

12 August 2012 - 08:28 AM

I'm currently doing a makeover on my store - I have some categories that really could do with being grouped together in a parent category e.g.

I have a Pajero category, a Challenger category and a L200 category, all three are Mitsubishi and really should be in a parent category called Mitsubishi.


The question is if I do that what problems are going to arise with SEO and what would be the best way to circumvent them?

Copy Product Problem

10 August 2012 - 08:41 AM

I've recently added to Table Products Description 3 extra columns with a corresponding 3 extra fields in categories.php to add data in them. All 3 extra columns are TEXT and add additional details to the item description such as technical specifications etc.

Everything works perfectly until I try to copy an item (or, I suspect, move it as well). The copy script selects the data from all 9 columns of  Table Products Description but then combines the extra 3 TEXT columns to the original products_description and then tries to insert the result back into Table Products Description.

Consequently I'm getting a 1136 - Column count doesn't match value count at row 1

Does anyone have any idea where my problem may lie or where the copy script gets it's select information from?
