2.- Installation
  • Download and unzip microCART.zip file
  • Upload all the files in your site keeping the same structure. eg cart.php must be on the same level as your forum.php
  • CMOD 777 the directories:
    • microcart
    • microcart/photos
    • microcart/photos/thumbs
    • microcart/photos/tmp
    • microcart/editor/files
    • microcart/editor/flash
    • microcart/editor/media
    • microcart/editor/photos
    • microcart/pdf
    • microcart/fonts
    • microcart/images
  • Login to your admincp and import product-microcart.xml
3.- Configuration
  • First of all you need to setup microCART General Options. The most important option is to set the path to the directory where you'll store the files. For security reasons you must create a directory over the public area. Then write the full path in the options. Don't forget the trailing slash at the end. Example:
    • /home/username/downloads/
  • Setup Usergroup permissions. Available options are:
    • Can access the store
    • Can order
    • Can Moderate. Please note that, as a way to bypass the limitation of having vB editor in admincp, I've moved the product descriprion, system messages and agreements to fronend. But only those who can moderate can access this area, and only for modifying the text. Nothing more.
  • Setup Categories and Subcategories for your store.
  • Setup your Agreements (at least one)
  • Start adding products but from AddOns and Services. It will helps you to save time, as when at a later time you add a main product, you can choose the addons.
  • To work properly with HTML editor you need to edit settings.php locating at: microcart/editor/assetmanager/ and set the corrects paths.
4.- Product Options (Configurations)

In version 1.0.3 has been added support for configurable options. Not just simple text choices, but options that can increase/decrease the total price. That's why you need to pay extra attention on entering these options to avoid pricing mess.

First of all, you can find these options as "Extra Options" on the droplist on the right of each product (AdminCP). By choosing it you'll get a list of all available configurable options for the specific product. You can Edit and Delete it, or you can change the display order. Click "New Extra Option" to add one.

There is no need for explanation of title. Write there anything that you want. Examples of configuration options are: Color, Size, Ram, Hard disk etc. So let's write Size. In the box below you must add all the available options keeping the format:
Amount|Name

Examples:
  • 0|Normal : This option dosen't changes the product's price and it will appears as: Normal
  • 15.30|Large : This option increases the price by 15.30 and it will appears as: Large (+$15.30) ... The currency symbol is the one that you've setup. DON'T NEED TO ENTER CURRENCY SYMBOL HERE
  • -7.50|Mini : This option decreases the price by 7.50 and it will appears as: Mini (-$7.50). ONCE MORE: DONT ADD CURRENCY SYMBOL.
5.- Product Terminology
  • Price: Is the normal price that you're selling a product (eg 49.95)
  • Discount: Is the amount that you're giving as discount. eg if you place 4.95 here the price will appear as $49.95 $45.00
  • Special (Bundle) price. Currently not in use
  • AddOns. Are products that someone can order in the same form (eg Installation, Brand Free etc).
  • Special Bundle. Currently not in use
6.- Understanding Shipping Zones
To understand Shipping fields (Base weight, Base fare, Extra weight, Extra fare), you must know how the companies (at least the most of them) are working. They're saying: Till 3 kilos the rate is $15. More than 3 kilos you must add $3 per 500gr (1/2 kilos). In this example you must setup:
  1. Base weight 3000 (in grammars) or 3 (in kilos)
  2. Base fare 15.00
  3. Extra weight 500 (in grammars) or 0.5 (in kilos)
  4. Extra fare 3.00
  5. Please note to use the same as the definied in the general option weight unit. Setting in options kgr and here grammars is the best way to mess your shop.
7.- Friedly notes
  • Please let my copyright link in place. Thank you.
  • When rating, please remember that you're rating the script and not me as a person. Thank you.
  • Don't spam this thread with comments about my personality. Comment my work only. Thank you.
8.- Demo9.- Warning

The included HTML Editor is commercial, so you can use it ONLY within microCART directory.

I have a couple of problems/issues:

I'm using EUR (€)

1) when I write an option ( i.e. -3|green) in the output instead of having -€3 I have -€-3
2) the paypal generated links doesn't work

In addition to this, I don't know how it takes into account the different shipping methods. I don't know if it's embedded in paypal link, but actually it doesn't work!

So that the user can pay with his earned credits instead of real money.
At this time it has not been but it could be put in place at some stage.

Michael, is there a way to control which item(s)/products get displayed in the block?
Now that the block is working i will sort out the options for this and make other blocks as well.

Also, how do i remove the telephone number as a required field when entering shipping details?
I can change this so that the option is not a setting but a by product option for shipping.
So how it will work is when adding a product you will be able to choose if this product will have shipping or not.

Would that be better for you.

Sounds good.

It would also be good for admins to be able to choose from a list of things they want to include as required when the customer fills out the shipping form. There is no way my customers would be comfortable giving out their phone number.

Thanks micheal, your support and replies are speedy to say the least.
