Hello,

It's not so difficult to make an upgrade. I look the update, there 2 sql update.
in first, go to your phpmyadmin and update the Db.
in second, just send the files in your server.

For you it's good to make a test.

That's all.

 

My recommendation before that, do the update in your local server, If your have no problem, go in production.

[New Product Template - Continue learning]

Hello @CoucheTard

 

Your logo scare me

Yes, you can develop your own modules, Look the code inside the module, you will have some other function than you can use.

For example you can integrate the reviews evaluation or you can create something else.

For the reviews, you can create another template and put inside.
Create another module, or template allow you to maintain more easily your application without to tell you what files I need to change or to look.

Of course, if there is an update, you must look inside your own module if you must adapt something.

 

But the best, it to create a new template and inside include the files than you must want to change.

Look the template on the marketplace, it will help you.

[How to chmod ClicShopping directories manually?]

No you do not have to. It's not mandatory

You can install composer inside your dev and after if you install a library and develop something (or update the libraries),

you can export your dev in  production.

It's better to check in dev before because when you are in production, and you have an error it's not very nice !!

Composer help lot of when you try to develop something with a library like phpmailer (it's including inside ClicShopping).

But it's an example.

 

Composer change these files when you make an action with composer.

/shop/composer.json

/shop/composer.lock

/includes/ClicShoping/External/vendor

 

Let me know if you want more information.

 

[How to chmod ClicShopping directories manually?]

@Julie,

In your case, you can not install the apps but the library will not installed. You must make another action via your terminal to finish to install the library.

After you can activate the apps.

 

The terminal command is :

 

composer require mylibrary
composer update mylibrary
composer update (for all library)
composer remove mylibrary

If you have this message you can not make an update via the administration, you will see just the version installed.

 

@SuperThin, As i Said ClicShopping, it's better for you to make a manual update.
You can look the apps accross the admin, but it's better to download and install after

Also you can look via Github or via the marketplace.

Some hoster make restriction and its not possible to know before to make a test.

 

[Composer App]

Thank you @ClicShopping,

Nice contribution it will help in the future.

You warning is very important, it's better to make an update in the development, look if there is a problem and after apply in production.

[Composer App]

Hello,

if you want to know the library version and look if there is an update, yes it can be.

I have not installed this app but it just display the information for moment.
It will be cool if it's possible to make an action like update around that.

A library can have bugs, secutiy problem ....

[ClicShopping Offline using ?]

A service worker is a script that your browser runs in the background, separate from a web page, opening the door to features that don't need a web page or user interaction. Today, they already include features like push notifications and background sync. In the future, service workers might support other things like periodic sync or geofencing. The core feature discussed in this tutorial is the ability to intercept and handle network requests, including programmatically managing a cache of responses.

The reason this is such an exciting API is that it allows you to support offline experiences, giving developers complete control over the experience.

[ClicShopping Offline using ?]

Maybe via a service worker, you can do that. but it's not included inside the solution.

[Composer intégration inside ClicShopping]

You can but before to go in production, check if everything works fine.

[Composer intégration inside ClicShopping]

@Oka, good link.

yes it's important to develop a business case, because after you know where you want to got, marketing, target, .... and you know what the features you mus have in priority to start slowly with a minimum of cost.

After you can select your e-commerce solution and develop your application around that.

Just by experience, it's not simple to choose a solution, because some are very close on the functionalities. But, it's important to do that by yourself or a consultant and not read all the bull cheat write on internet to promote just a solution.

It can lot of reason for that. I think it's important to be at the same level than your customer and what they want and what they must buy on your website.

You can propose nice product but if the customer does not trust in your website, there is no way.

Do not forget, yesterday is not today. Some people have internet, has been some problem with some e-commerce website, service ...

 

In clear, your site must inspire the trust and you must build your reputation
