Hotclutch 202 Posted Thursday at 05:37 PM " Support for older versions of osCommerce may be offered on these Forums, temporarily, although we encourage all users to move to the new, better, and more secure version. Support for other Ecommerce platforms and osCommerce forks WILL NOT be offered on these Forums. " I am two minded about investing the time and money in starting up a brand new domain and forum as a meeting place for people still interested in V2 osCommerce. The forum will be non commercial, for information exchange only, as osCommerce was in the beginning. How many people interested in this idea ? 2 Smoky Barnable and ArtcoInc reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

osCommerce-Official 239 Posted Friday at 12:02 PM We will not be stopping anyone from creating alternative online resources. For the time being, though, there will not be any changes to the forums in terms of support of old osCommerce 2.x However, just ask yourselves - does old osCommerce have any future? Do you want to cling to the old technology that is effectively dead? It is because it was not being upgraded that osCommerce got into the state it was before we introduced new version of osCommerce. Now osCommerce has new future, and you can be a part of it! Does it make sense to just stick to something that was the best at some point in the past but is not anymore? Or rather, be a part of what can be the best again in the future? We welcome everyone to join us on this journey, and if you change your mind regarding using old technologies - will be happy to work with you in any capacity - with business owners and with developers.

bonbec 139 Posted Friday at 12:23 PM The problem is that you have removed access to addons from V2 and V4 has no addons available. Almost no store works with the default configuration. Each store has its specificities and needs certain addons to live and develop while waiting to be able to use V4. For many of us, the online store is the only source of income. Without the necessary addons, the revenue stream drops or stagnates, which is not in our interest. A V4 without addons is of little interest except to become familiar with its operation, but that's not what brings money into our pockets. 2 osCommerce-Official and Smoky Barnable reacted to this with OsC 2.2 since 2006 ...

It is exactly for that reason that we brought v4 live - to make it possible for those, whose only source of income is Ecommerce development - to have a real-life tool that they can use to earn money. Old add-ons will be made available soon. But it is the new Apps that we recommend looking to use and build to make $$ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

♥Smoky Barnable 79 Posted Friday at 09:21 PM Good. Perhaps add a way for members to upload addons they were able to download before access here was restricted.
