EBAY Store?

02 May 2012, 11:40

How many of you also have a ebay store? How does it work? The last time I checked it out it wanted to charge me for each item I listed in the store. Kind of crazy since not everything sells in the alotted auction time.

I would appreciate any feedback you may have.
Thanks,
Matt

Explaining Shipping charges to customers

15 April 2012, 14:26

With the constant increases of shipping costs from UPS and fedex, many customers have beencomplaining about the shipping charges. I don't charge a handling fee and use the rates as provided by the shipper's api.
Does anyone have a suggestion of how to explain the shipping to customers? I have one vendor that only ships fedex and as a standard includes insurance on every order.
Perhaps a note on the shipping page would help?

Warning to all who use ftp

27 November 2011, 14:16

I have had osc stores for four years now without any issue. Recently I noticed my sales declining and traffic not what it used to be.
After some investigation I found that someone had gotten my logins and passwords from my filezilla program and changed my index.php and login.php on both the catalog side and the admin side. This is not a osc issue but a internet security issue. After many hours of research I found that a keystroke logger had been installed on my laptop by a malicious entity. They were then able to copy my logins to everything I used a password for!

I suggest running malwarebytes antimalware scan and install a proven firewall like zone alarm. The basic security that comes with a laptop is not sufficient.
I now also have roboform to protect my passwords in a vault.

I had to run my scans in safe mode to detect the malware. Over 1200 trojans!

Hopes this helps someone.

Code appearing on top of admin pages

31 October 2011, 11:34

I got this code below showing up at the top of all my admin pages. Any idea on how to remove it?


page, $max_page_links, $current_page_number, $parameters = '', $page_name = 'page') { global $PHP_SELF; if ( tep_not_null($parameters) && (substr($parameters, -1) != '&') ) $parameters .= '&'; // calculate number of pages needing links $num_pages = ceil($query_numrows / $max_rows_per_page); $pages_array = array(); for ($i=1; $i<=$num_pages; $i++) { $pages_array[] = array('id' => $i, 'text' => $i); } if ($num_pages > 1) { $display_links = tep_draw_form('pages', basename($PHP_SELF), '', 'get'); if ($current_page_number > 1) { $display_links .= '' . PREVNEXT_BUTTON_PREV . ' '; } else { $display_links .= PREVNEXT_BUTTON_PREV . ' '; } $display_links .= sprintf(TEXT_RESULT_PAGE, tep_draw_pull_down_menu($page_name, $pages_array, $current_page_number, 'onChange="this.form.submit();"'), $num_pages); if (($current_page_number < $num_pages) && ($num_pages != 1)) { $display_links .= ' ' . PREVNEXT_BUTTON_NEXT . ''; } else { $display_links .= ' ' . PREVNEXT_BUTTON_NEXT; } if ($parameters != '') { if (substr($parameters, -1) == '&') $parameters = substr($parameters, 0, -1); $pairs = explode('&', $parameters); while (list(, $pair) = each($pairs)) { list($key,$value) = explode('=', $pair); $display_links .= tep_draw_hidden_field(rawurldecode($key), rawurldecode($value)); } } $display_links .= tep_hide_session_id() . ''; } else { $display_links = sprintf(TEXT_RESULT_PAGE, $num_pages, $num_pages); } return $display_links; } function display_count($query_numrows, $max_rows_per_page, $current_page_number, $text_output) { $to_num = ($max_rows_per_page * $current_page_number); if ($to_num > $query_numrows) $to_num = $query_numrows; $from_num = ($max_rows_per_page * ($current_page_number - 1)); if ($to_num == 0) { $from_num = 0; } else { $from_num++; } return sprintf($text_output, $from_num, $to_num, $query_numrows); } } ?>

PDF Datasheets 1_7 error

12 August 2011, 11:28

Hi All,
I just loaded this mod and am getting the following error: Warning: require(test/pdf/pdf_datasheet_config.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/mysite/public_html/test/pdf/pdf_datasheet_functions.php on line 12

Line 12 is require('test/pdf/pdf_datasheet_config.php');

I have this new site setup inside my customers main site as a test so that we can build a new design while the old design remains functional.
So the breadcrumb trail looks like:http://www.mysite.com/public_html/test/

I have tried several senarios of line 12 but continue to get the same errors.

Warning: require(test/pdf/pdf_datasheet_config.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/mysite/public_html/test/pdf/pdf_datasheet_functions.php on line 12

Fatal error: require() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'test/pdf/pdf_datasheet_config.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/mysite/public_html/test/pdf/pdf_datasheet_functions.php on line 12


Any ideas?
