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 sugestion about shipping cost. Its not useful in Poland. Our shippers are this prices:
1 kg = 11,00
1-2 kg = 13,00
2-5 kg = 14,50
5-10 kg = 20,50
10-15 kg = 25,00
15-20 kg = 35,00
20-30 kg = 43,00

So extra weight is variable, its depend from weight range.
I will have alook and let you know the best way for you to enter in your shipping costs.

At checkout, the First Name,Last Name and Zip Code fields need to be edited. What file has this in it so I can change what is displayed? Currently, those two fields read: Firstname (no space between words),Lastname (same thing) and Zipcode (same thing).

When you create or edit a product or service, there is an option towards the bottom that says "Mark as Flagship Product". I would guess that when you say yes, it puts it in that block. As for disabling, not sure there.

Anyone have any ideas on my other question above?

Above question answered - Found by searching in Phrases and fixed.



A different was asked earlier on but I never did see an answer anywhere, how do you edit the pdf invoice logo and background? I changed the logo and added the path in General Options and it doesn't show up. I would like to changed the background also, but can't find that anywhere. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

When you add a product you will see Mark as flagship this will then add this product to that block,
but only one flagship product can be added.
if you dont put any product as flagship it will not show that block.

You cannot change the background of the pdf file as this is a class code.
but if you would like to play around with the settings goto line 2060 to line 2089
this is where the code is for the background.

Thank you very much! I think I'll just leave it be since it's hard coded in there.

I do have a logo image question though...in general options, would this be the correct path for the logo image under the "Change Invoice Image" section?

/images/estore/sitelogo.png

(as an example)

I tried this and no image appears in the invoice. Is there a specific folder that the image should be in?

pdf logo images should be uploaded to this folder

microcart/pdf/images/

then when you add this to the options just add the image name like so

pdflogo.jpg

and it will work

I did this and it still comes up blank on the pdf invoice when I add something in General Options. I even tried leaving the field blank and putting an image in the folder called "logo.jpg" as a replacement to the original and that doesn't work either....never had an image this difficult to replace....lol

Few questions...

1. What are the outstanding issues and possible timeframe to repair?
2. Can this be set up to host various vendors? For example... I'm not selling a thing but I may have a handful of users on the site who want to setup a sort of online store. I have the content that people are looking for which would of course benefit those selling content related items.

Finally, I would absolutely pay for this mod if Option 2 is a reality.

Great modification. Thanks!
