Thank you!

Thank you Jack. I believe using Wordpress for ecommerce a plugin or addition is required. I think Bluehost offered the bundle according to a support tech I talked to. It didn't make sense to me so I am shying away from that setup.

Wondering if USPS shipping method for us in the states will either be included or available as a free add-on?

I shut down my website LONG ago. Not many sales even though I was on the first page of Google search results. I'm not a coder by any means of the word but I stumbled through all the updates, add-ons, etc... Since I still own my original web name/address am thinking of creating a site for my wife and one for me again. I originally was hosted at Bluehost and they even recommended osCommerce and offered me some support with it. Now they are setup for and suggesting Wordpress which I know nothing about for ecommerce use. Is v4 ready for prime time? Seems like not many forum post since 2021. Is the layout and theme easily customizable? Or will I need coding experience? One site will do fine with the horizontal menu in the header the other site would work better with the old "More Categories" style menu. Something like this along the left side of the site when viewed on a PC. Models Cars -> Trucks -> Motorcycles -> Boats -> Paints Testors bottles -> Testors spray -> Tamiya bottles -> Tamiya spray -> Etc... I'm in the U.S. and looking for PayPal payment method and USPS shipping method. I originally used XAMPP on my PC to test editing before uploading to host. Can I still use XAMPP or is there something else I would need?

Thanks for the info :thumbsup:

Is this contribution osC 2.3.3 friendly?

I can't for the life of me figure out how to update this to work with osC 2.3.3 :( The need for the categories.php file throws me off. I just can't get me head around it. Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated before I give up and delete my in the works new shop. I just can't believe that this add-on never made it to an updated version by now!

Got yah... :thumbsup:

Not sure if I am following this right or not, dang meds... :wacko: I recently downloaded a theme I created at the JQuery website, it loaded fine. I didn't like the colors of some of the button icons so I edited the proper little icons in Photoshop (recently deleted Fireworks :( ). I even created a few custom button colors. Just my useless 2 cents. (w00t)

Thank you Jim. Don't bang your head against a wall on my part, I can live with it. Regards, This Jim :)

@@kymation Sorry Jim... It's stubborn and still there.

Thank you so much Jim! That cleared up the line 159 mess but I am still receiving a long repeating list of the 186 message. Warning: Illegal string offset 'id' in C:\xampp\htdocs\Hobbies\catalog\includes\modules\header_tags\ht_theme_switcher.php on line 186 Although it looks scary, should I just live with it or trouble you some more? Again I truely appreciate your contributions and all the help you give to us.

Hi Jim, Thank you for this any many other contributions and support. XAMPP localhost test server. Theme Switcher version 1.4.2 - but the mod shows 1.4.0 in admin. osC verson 2.3.3 I replaced catalog/includes/template_top.php and installed all files as directed (pretty sure, I double checked). I highlighted the module then clicked install. Below is the list of errors I received. I was able to edit the version numbers. Also whenever I go to the module I receive the below errors (not just during the install process). I re-read directions especially sections 3.2 & 3.3. Seems I am able to switch themes though. Any ideas?

Sorry Jim... My bad! :blush:

Hummm... My guess is you didn't try this!
