Cs-Cart & Multi-Vendor 4.3.2 Released

[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Hi![/font][/color]



[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]We’re introducing a minor release—CS-Cart & Multi-Vendor 4.3.2.[/font][/color]



[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][/font][/color]



[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Since version 4.3.2 is a maintenance release, it’s composed mostly of bug fixes. Besides fixes, this new version has one functionality change—showing product filters on the home page.[/font][/color]



[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Earlier versions had this feature, but we removed it in 4.3.1 because filters on the home page slowed down the store. At our clients’ requests, we’re bringing filters back to the home page. We have reworked these filters and now they don’t slow down the storefront.[/font][/color]



To add filters to the home page, create a special filters block:


  1. Go to Design → Layouts → Homepage[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif] and add a block:[/font][/color]






  2. Switch [color=#333333][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]to the [/font][/color]Create New Block[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif] tab and create the [/font][/color]Product filters for home page[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif] block:[/font][/color]






  3. Name[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif] the block on the [/font][/color]General[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif] tab, switch to the [/font][/color]Content[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif] tab, and add filters manually:[/font][/color]






  4. Select [color=#333333][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]filters, click [/font][/color]Add filters and close[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]:[/font][/color]






  5. Click Create[color=#333333][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]:[/font][/color]







    [color=#3F3F3F][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=4]Upgrade[/size][/font][/color]



    [color=#333333][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]License owners with active upgrade subscriptions will see the upgrade available in their Upgrade centers within a week.[/font][/color]



    [color=#333333][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]If you have an upgrade subscription, you can download your own installation package from the File Area of your Help Desk account.[/font][/color]

    [color=#333333][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]We greatly appreciate any feedback! Please share your ideas about CS-Cart improvements on our UserVoice.[/font][/color]

Nice job!

Perfect

yes… perfection :)

For the first time ever I can't get this new build of CS-Cart to install. The installation just will not begin after submitting the db and admin values on the first screen.

I downloaded the tgz file and uncompressed it on the server, set the file and directory permissions…

I'm still running PHP 5.3.28 because I'm upgrading the v3 store and it is live on the same server. Maybe 4.3.2 isn't compatible with PHP 5.3?

v4.3.1 installed without a problem in the exact same location with the exact same values. I deleted that entire installation, dropped the database tables, even cleared the XCache before attempting to install v4.3.2



Found the error log in the install folder and it contains this:

[09-Jun-2015 19:50:57 UTC] PHP Fatal error: Class 'Tygh' not found in /home/xxxxx/public_html/v4/app/functions/fn.init.php on line 174


There is a change in the code from v4.3.1 to v4.3.2 on that line. and it's stopping the installation.

The code from v4.3.1 is:

if (Ajax::validateRequest($_REQUEST)) {
$ajax = new Ajax($_REQUEST);
Registry::set('ajax', $ajax);
fn_define('AJAX_REQUEST', true);
}


The code that creates the PHP Fatal error in v4.3.2 is:

if (Ajax::validateRequest($_REQUEST)) {
Tygh::$app['ajax'] = new Ajax($_REQUEST);
fn_define('AJAX_REQUEST', true);
}


Specifically this line:

Tygh::$app['ajax'] = new Ajax($_REQUEST);

Any change you can give out the URL so I can just wget the file to my server

Blank page you mean no list of backups or completely blank? If second please enable DEVELOPMENT constant in config.php file.

It used to be tabs with “Backup” “Restore” of files or database. Where have they gone? Its the same in your demo.

Congratulations!

I already have the upgrade 4.3.2 in [color=#333333]Upgrade center[/color] of Russian MV 4.3.1 but as well as I know Russian multivendor is not ready yet.

Not sure if it is okay to proceed now.

Please advice!!!

Looks like some kind of mistake. I would not recommend you to upgrade:)

After you create a backup you will have a list ob backups. It can be database, or files. Each backup has a Gear box, where you can select “Restore”. But you need to hover mouse cursor on the line first.
