Question - "Buy now in one click" has 3 available fields on storefront - name, email, phone.
Admin side also has notes text field and convenenient time to call field.
How to make these 2 extra field appear in front end?
I cannot see "buy now in one click" in add-ons for setup

Edit
admin - call requests
It seems the notes section in admin is for admin use only and not visible to the customer? Is so please add a description to the admin text block.
Front end - buy in one click -
Can a convenient time to call field or a notes text field be added to the front end?
They appear in the back end for admin use only?

Admin side - Export
Can you please add the "Promo Text" field to Product export?
Why - It is time consuming to alter promo text on every product individually so I choose not to use it at all.
If I can export and import promo text I will use it all the time.

Paypal payment method - it worked perfectly in cscart v1 and is my biggest problem using cscart v4
I have many orders returned to cscart as paypal payment incomplete in v4 if customers do not use the "return to merchant" button on paypal.
I made changes as instructed by cscart support desk to avoid this but these are only workarounds and not a good solution.

I cannot test paypal payments on the demo version and there are no paypal orders complete on the demo admin side. Paypal is not setup as a payment option on the demo.

I notice the blog demo post is about paypal setup
http://bullet.demo.c...om/blog/paypal/
It says
Your PayPal account should have the following settings for cscart merchium:

• Instant Payment Notification - off
• Payment Data Transfer - off
• Auto Return for Website Payments - off
• Return URL - blank

Has this been thoroughly tested for paypal payments for customers who do not use merchium.
Does the new version return the transaction ID to order details page as cscart v1 did.

Admin - Design - Layouts - Search results

Returns a strange banner image and message

[Luthien]

Admin - Design - Layouts - Homepage -Our Brands

Please add a content tab so we can select which brands to display.

At the moment it displays all brands so we do not use this feature.
We have hundreds of brands, some logos are poor, some brands we wish to feature.

On front end, product details pages
Why is there a big gap between some of the social addons?

I would like to see "Promo Text" added to the Bulk edit in the admin. I don't export/import, but I do edit multiple products in the admin and "Promo Text" is not available.
Thank you,
Bob

Maybe you should submit these issues to bugtracker for version 4.3.1. Experience shows that you may get a response once in this thread but that will be the last you hear.

I agree with Brownleather that the extra step in the filtering process is problematic from a usability standpoint:

• It complicates an interaction that should be as simple as possible and can be potentialy confusing to the user. For example: When the user chooses many filters options it's not immediately apparent that the indicated number of available products corresponds to the combination of feature variants, and not the last clicked variant. I can understand it, sure, but I'm not so certain about the average user.
• Also it breaks user expectations, even for experienced users like me, because it does not follow standard filtering as seen in most sites.
• It may be faster in page loading terms, but it slows down the user in terms of interaction.
• It greatly diminishes the usefulness of dynamic filtering in certain cases: Let's say that a user wants to see in what colors are dresses with "mini" length available. With the current system she just have to check the "mini" variant and the color variants that are not available are automatically greyed out. With the new system when she clicks on the "mini" variant the color variants do not change. Even if she clicks "show", still all the color variants remain "active". I see this as a very serious flaw.

I strongly suggest that you consider giving as the choice in the admin to turn this feature on/off.


I would love to hear what other members of the forum think about this!

Hi,

I agree completely with brownleather and psithu. Pretending to increase speed regarding the use of filters adding an unnecessary and difficult to understand click is a dirty trick.


The behaviour on v.4.2.x should be maintained: when a user clicks on a filter, the system refreshes the products shown instantly, without any other click or http request.

It is absolutely out of any usability good practice, and won't be understood. If forced to choose between speed and usability regarding the filters feature, I would choose usability.

Please, reconsider this part. For me, it is critical regarding the adoption of the forthcoming 4.3.x release.

Regards,
