This Upgrade not working…many errors. Works to someone?

Keep making those new feature requests. It might take a few releases, but it appears the developers are listening. :slight_smile:



I just installed 2.07 and it went very smoothly.

My store is now temporarily closed. :frowning: fix?

Kogi,



Just login to your CS-Cart admin and you will see a small link at the bottom of the page that you can click to re-open your store.

Thank you :smiley:



Maybe I should read the manual:-?

Where is this Hot deals block. I found it in Admin/Addons. I installed it but where do you use this feature?

I must applaud the team for a fine release.

The upgrade process was painless.

And the Solitude Skin looks beautiful

I have been looking for this too. There is nothing obvious. I hope this is not like the ‘My changes’ add-on where we still have no documantation.



Bob

I think I found a buglet



With SEO turned on

If you create a content page that is not in the root level.

And you try to use that link in the Top Menu



Clicking that link will fair with a 404

I was excited about “View as:” thing in categories. But its settings drop after entering different category or subcategory, it is useless…

I found it in CS-Cart User Manual, and it nice features…



Hot deals block - allows to add a block (Design->Blocks) with the settings Name:

ANY, Block content: Products, Filling: ANY, Position: Central, Appearance type: Hot

deals, Wrapper: NONE. Using the block customers will be able to scroll the products

displayed in this block, switch to different pages and filter products by categories;
