Changing domain name, need help please

05 March 2012, 16:26

I have a working store on a domain, which I wish to change to a new domain name.

I've changed the domain names in admin/includes/configure.php and includes/configure.php.

However when trying to view a category, I get an error message. The correct info is shown in the address bar, for example -
http://www.newdomain.co.uk/store/-c-58.html
The page displays
[b]	Not Found[/b]

The requested URL /~olddomainname/store/index.php was not found on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Where should I be looking to change 'olddomainname' ? (Its not actually olddomainname, but a short cut version.

Any help appreciated please

Thanks in advance.

Facebook intergration?

10 January 2012, 15:37

I'm aware OSC can be integrated with Facebook to display the catalogue and in some cases purchasing via Facebook is also possible.

Facebook do have a system of theirs that links to OSC, but there's a monthly fee for their system, so wish to avoid that to keep my overheads down.

I was wondering if anyone here has added the Facebook feature described above, if so which addon did you use please and what your thoughts are on the system please?

Any links to examples would be nice please (PM them if you don't wish to add them here).

Thanks in advance for any helpful comments :)

Stock control...

10 January 2012, 14:52

I'm currently running a *very* modified old version of OSC, however I'm going to get it brought up to the current version.

For the past six or so years I've used OSC as a selling tool, consequently the stock counts have been irrelevant. When stock comes and goes out to customers, I've been manually adjusting an Excel spread sheet.

The back end is set up for multi vendors.

When I order stock from suppliers to hold on the shelf, I have been doing it through the store (as a customer) which messes up the OSC stock count. For example.... A customer can order 5 units, then I restock with another 10, so OSC then says 15 have gone out!!!

I'd really like to move away from the spreadsheet system, so is there a proper stores addition where I can easily book stock in (without having to open up individual products).

Basically I'm open to some suggestions please on trying to reduce my time on stock control.

Thanks in advance for any helpful comments :)

Emails from osc bouncing

18 July 2011, 14:16

I'm getting messages sent out by my install of OSC bounced. The system has been fine for several years, but I think one scanning companny has changed their scanning proceedure and has decided to reject my emails. The message I get back is...

Quote

SMTP error from remote mail server after end of data:
host outbound-mail.xscanner.net [95.172.255.104]:
550 Messages should have one or no To headers, not 2.

Has anyone come across this before and what did you do to make good? Alternatively where should I look to make good please?

Thanks in advance :)
