    Hi Mendoh,
    Please try the solution described in the link below.

    mendoh reacted to Ivan Holbi in Issues AGAIN when performing simple edits of a standard OSC4 theme...   
    Hi Mendoh,
    Please see my post above regarding the issues mentioned in this post.
    Regarding "Trying to re-enable the turned-off categories does not restore the previous layout." please see point 5 in my post above.
    Regarding "Even more puzzling, the categories and subcategories I added do show at breadcrumb or header level in homepage, however, as soon as you click on them, they will not show any products, despite at least one product per subcategory is actually present and enabled." in the category Audio surveillance microphones all the products in all the subcategories are switched off. But in the category Audio and video recorders all the products are switched on so they are displayed. Please see the screenshot below.
     

      
    Regarding "Missing new category", for example in the category Audio and video recorders the option Show on home page is switched on. Please see the screenshot below.

    That is why it is displayed on the front end. But this option is switched off on the category Audio surveillance microphones. Please see another screenshot below.

    So it is not displayed on the front end.
    Best regards,
    Ivan

    mendoh got a reaction from pandrei in "Down for maintenance" feature not working?   
    Thanks Andrei.
    My suggestion would be to write down some sort of "quick set-up guide" aside the main manual/wiki: by doing this, you would allow interested site owners to go live in a relatively short time, while at the same time creating additional interest in them, thus making them wanting to know more about the truly massive potentials and number of features that the new OSCv4 actually has to offer and eventually start digging deeper into the main manual/wiki. 
    For instance, by starting from the original Watch theme, a quick set-up guide should enable the user to set up a fully functional website with that very same theme, however eventually replacing the existing demo products with actual products before going live with the whole shop. 
    A properly-written quick guide should show how to add products and categories within the same original theme layout, while at the same time considering and explaining all the hidden relationships with other OSCv4 features and functions when doing that (e.g.: a new product will not show up among new products under the new products tab unless it has not only been added, but also marked as new until a given date and the maximum number of days for which a product is marked as new have been set). 
    A properly written quick guide should also take into account all those essential operations and configurations that are absolutely mandatory for a freshly installed site to go live correctly and show how to complete them one after another in a step-by-step procedure. Some examples of essential operations and configurations would be: configuration of all the essential website information, locales, currencies, how to set up tax and shipping information properly, online payment setup, etc. 
    Last but not least, I have tried to replicate the flushing cache issue, however, this:
    https://www.oscommerce.com/forums/topic/498293-a-simple-logo-change-in-the-mobile-theme-version-completely-destroys-layout-of-the-desktop-version/
    totally prevented me from doing so, because my desktop theme version has gone away and I now have some sort of "hybrid" desktopmobile theme version where all the destkop buttons have disappeared....
    😭

    Mendoh,
    So as for the company info in question #1.
    Please go to Admin --> Configuration
    (then in these three area's' make sure the fields you would like to use are set to either visible or the option that best works for you. (register, required, both)

     
    As for question 2:
    Please go to Admin --> Configuration --> Customer Details
    You can increase the allowable addresses to save per customer from 5 to whatever you desire. (If you leave it at five, even though there is no delete - you can edit 1 of the 5 address and change it to the address you desire.

    Furthermore the customer could email admin of site and have them deleted. Only admin in the backend can delete the address in the customer area of the admin pages.
    Hope this helps, and keep up the good work!

    mendoh got a reaction from cjf1026 in OSCv4 website email configured with SMTP, all emails get sent straight to spambox and the website host blames it on the OSCv4 engine...   
    That is exactly what my host customer support told me.  
    According to them, if your host does not enforce such policy, it is not a top-notch one and the e-commerce email engine should have provisions to avoid using the customer email address as the sender. 
    99% the issues you are having with your "ghost emails" depend on your host enforcement of the no email relay policy...

    mendoh got a reaction from Smoky Barnable in Thought the widget-based OSC4 Theme structure to be very user-friendly, now I am definitely changing my mind...   
    I thought the OSC4 Themes based on widgets to be very user-friendly. In actual facts and after fiddling more than a couple of days with simple widgets modifications (i.e.: adding, removing and customizing the existing widgets), I have to change my mind. 
    After adding a few new info pages and customizing a few widgets (all modifications have been brought to the WATCH theme), this is what I am sadly getting right now: 
    the original new products, sales feature products and featured products have all DISAPPEARED from home page and there is apparently no way to have them back, despite they are still present on the admin side; the pop-up preview layout I get from admin after bringing my changes is different (better) than the actual live front end layout: widgets that previously took no more than a couple of small units now extend to half the size of the whole page and a few category pictures get piled up one atop the other, thus completely destroying the homepage design (did not happen before); all the info pages I added have DISAPPEARED and there is apparently no way to have them back, despite they are still present on the admin side. All I am left with is their page link on the hompeage footer widget but...guess what!? Clicking on it delivers absolutely nothing! the original theme page links (i.e.: New products, Sales Feature and Featured Products) behave exactly as the pages I have added, that is: ALL DISAPPEARED; the original "Contact Us" page has gone as well! clicking on any of the original "For her", "For him", "For hall" product categories, as well as on any of the original "New products", "Feature Products" and "All products" tabs/links shows ABSOLUTELY NOTHING; the BACKUP feature on admin DOES NOT HELP AT ALL. Despite having at least 4 backups, I could not restore the original theme layout and let us not even mention the for-ever spinning balls that stay onscreen even when some sort of "back-up" has already been restored 😞 the only pages and related links that still appear to work are "login" and "account". The OSC4 manuals/help wiki do not help at all. 
    Mailed a post about how to reset/reimport the original themes, so that I could at least start again from scratch: absolutely no reply so far. 
    Tried to copy the original theme folders to server and overwrite the existing ones: absolutely no difference.
    I made only very small changes to the original WATCH theme/widgets and frankly speaking I could never imagine a similar "earthquake" to be able to happen literally out of the blue, while making those changes and leaving me with absolutely no plausible cause for that. 
    At this moment, very sad to say, I am looking at a full reinstall to clear away the above and undesirable mess, but that is not even worth to be called a "solution": just imagine such a mess happening on a running site with hundreds of products and you are left with ABOSUTELY NO CLUE for the originating cause. 
    Is there ANYBODY who just KNOWS EXACTLY what is going on with that? 
    This whole new OSC4 engine appears to have great potentials to me, hovever, its remarkable inner complexity is definitely turning out to be a double-edged (or even triple-edged!) weapon so far... (OUCH!)
