The error happens because Smarty template engine attempts to translate and interpret some keywords in Google Analytics tracking code that conflict with Smarty template delimiter syntax. As a workaround, Smarty does provide tags, {literal} and {/literal}, which allows a block of data to be taken literally.

{literal} tags are typically used around Javascript or stylesheet blocks where {curly braces} would interfere with the template delimiter syntax. Anything within {literal}{/literal} tags is not interpreted, but displayed as-is. It means anything inside the tags will be appeared exactly the same in the final HTML output for web browser to interpret, and no change will be done by Smarty engine.

Thus, to fix Google Analytics tracking code error on BlogSome, just embed the tracking code with{literal} before Google Analytics Javascript code, succeeding with {/literal} after the tracking. For example,

{literal}
Google Analytics Tracking Code Append Here
{/literal}

1. Open the file "main_desktop.css" which holds most of the cart css. The file is located at "content/skins/tempo/styles/bootstrap/main_desktop.css"

2. Copy the css blocks that you want to override and paste it to the "custom_overrides.html" located at "content/skins/tempo/ folder.

The above will ensure that future updates will not overwrite your custom css.

When you move your IXXO CART system, if the domain, IP or directory you use it in is changing then you will need to have your license updated. How this is done depends upon the license you have. There are 2 different scenarios as below.

1. You purchased your license directly from us

If this is the case then you are able to reissue your license from our client area @ http://ixxocart.com/members without any manual intervention from us. Just login, go to Services > My Licenses, select your license key and click Reissue under the Management Actions tab - then visit your IXXO Cart installation in the new location and it will save the new valid access details for it

2. You obtain your license from a reseller

If this is the case then you won't be able to reissue your license from our client area because the domain and IP are not allowed to change. Please contact the reseller to have them update the license for use at the new location.

Moving IXXO Cart is straight forward:

• Take a backup of your database following the instructions,
• Make sure the new server meets the system requirements,
• Transfer the files across to the new server,
• Restore the database via phpmyadmin on the new server and make any changes to the database settings in engine_config.php.
• You'll then need to re-issue your license as described above.
• Login to your IXXO Cart admin and update the system URLS in Global System Settings > Global Site Settings.

Changing the License Key IXXO Cart uses

To change the license key your IXXO Cart system uses, login to the admin area and go to Help > Change License Key. You can then enter your new license key there along with your admin login details to verify the change. If you are getting a license invalid error so that you are unable to login then there is also a link to the change license page from the license error page.

Is licensing dependent on ixxocart.com being online?

No. IXXO CART uses a local key licensing system with periodic remote verification checks. What this means is that once every 15 days, your IXXO CART system will contact our server to ensure it is being run in the correct location and that the license is still valid. Your IXXO CART system being online is not dependent on our server being online during the time the local key is valid.

Should our licensing server be down on the day your next verification check is due then the system will allow up to 5 days for a connection to be made. If after this time, the system is still unable to verify your license with our licensing server then your IXXO CART Admin Area will become inactive until it can contact our server again.

Your IXXO CART Client Area (frontend) will always remain online even if you have an invalid or expired license to ensure your clients access is not interrupted.

Common Errors

No Connection Error

A No Connection error on the admin login page suggests there is a problem preventing your server from communicating with the IXXO licensing server. This is commonly a CURL or DNS resolution problem. These are essential items in the use of IXXO Cart and is something your server admin will need to investigate and correct.

• CURL - CURL is an extremely important part of IXXO Cart and is needed for a number of the operations performed such as server connections etc.
• DNS - DNS is a vital part of internet functionality in order to be able to resolve hostnames of servers, domain name lookups, and licensing. Ensure your DNS resolve ixxocart.com to the correct IP address.

License Invalid

A License Invalid error on the admin login page can be caused by one of the following changes:

• The license key has been entered incorrectly

Please ensure the full key is entered, this includes the prefix eg. "ICMVWP-", "ICMVSA-"

• The domain being used to access your install has changed
• The IP address your install is located on has changed
• The directory you are using has changed

Following any changes to the location of your IXXO Cart installation, the license must be updated accordingly. Please refer to Moving IXXO Cart above for instructions on doing so.

Fees and Commissions

A. Charge a monthly fee

B. Charge a % per transaction

D. Create subscription packages and limit the amount of products they can upload. So is up to you to use any combination.

Vendor Payments

The store owner can either receive all payments on behalf all vendors or allow vendors to get paid.

Please note that if you use paypal adaptive payment option, paypal splits the money between super admin and vendorse.g. An order with items from three vendors. Paypal will split the total amount of the order between the three vendors minus the commission of the store owner. With paypal adaptive enabled vendors will receive the money and store owner will get the commission from all vendors and all these with ONE transaction.

Locate
{$product.overview|truncate:80}

in the following catalog template files (if present in your version of the cart) in the folder "content/skins/flat/" (assuming you use the default flat skin template):
catalog_carousel.html

catalog_display.html
catalog_displaybox.html
catalog_table1.html
catalog_table2.html
catalog_text.html
catalog_thumb1.html
catalog_thumb2.html
catalog_thumb3.html

and look for the below line: {$product.overview|truncate:80}

the number at the end indicates, after how many characters the overview will be truncated, when exceeding the character limit given. If you want to display more characters just increase that number.
Keep in mind, that updates might overwrite any changes you make in the template files; therefore it would be wise to keep a backup copy of these changed files.
Keep also in mind, that you should delete the content of the "/content/compiled/" folder, otherwise your changes in the template files might not show up.

"Content and Layout" => "Appearance Settings" => "Catalog & Product Page Settings";

This widget mode is stored in a browser cookie, so either removing that browser cookie or waiting for it till it expires will change the shop view back to normal again for the browser where you executed a widget script.

If you want to use this widget code at the same website, you'd need to make a slight change to it, just remove the "&wdgt=true" parameter in the href url and the shop will not be displayed in widget mode.

eg. in your example you should use
http://MYDOMAIN/index.php?option=com_ixxocart&cart=topcart&oa=AddItem&oa_quantity=1&oa_id=4096

instead of:

http://MYDOMAIN/index.php?option=com_ixxocart&cart=topcart&oa=AddItem&oa_quantity=1&oa_id=4096&wdgt=true

Instead of this widget code, you can of course use the "add to cart plugin" to achieve the same functionality on your website.

abc.png
dyh12hj.png
3023.png
zslide.png
9slide.png

the order will be as follow:

Creating mobile-friendly slideshows is very easy with IXXO Cart.

Step 1: Create two different slideshows in the slideshow manager, with the same details/images one for the mobile version and one for the desktop version.
Step 2: Navigate to the Module Manager and find the two slideshows you have created on step 1.
Step 3: Edit the Slideshow of the desktop version and in the Class Suffix enter "d-none d-md-block" for v7 and "hidden-sm-down" for v6 templates and click "Save Changes".
Step 4: Edit the Slideshow of the mobile version and in the Class Suffix enter "d-block d-md-none" for v7 and "hidden-sm-up" for v6 templates and click "Save Changes".

To modify the font for each slideshow, navigate to the Slideshow Manager. Here you can add your own HTML Tags on the following fields:

• Caption Title
• Caption Subtitle
• Button Text

Folder: content/languages/

The social icons are located in the file "box_social_icons.html" (should start at line 18)

content/skins/revo/desktop/blocks/boxes/

To enable the social media option for vendors you will need to activate the vendor privilege "Edit custom vendor settings" in vendor profiles for existing vendors
/admin.php?p=vendor&mode=update&aid=23

For new vendor registrations you must enable it in the "Vendor Default Privileges" in
/admin.php?p=admin_vendor_defaults

After the privilege is activated vendors can add their social media accounts through their panel under the "Settings" drop down menu.

The social media option is only available through the vendor's backend dashboard

The full path for the file is httpdocs/content/skins/<skin_name>/custom_overrides.html

.category-banner{ldelim}
    -webkit-filter: none !important;
    filter: none !important;
{rdelim}
.category-banner.with-bg:before{ldelim}

Keep in mind that not all combinations will look fine, but as you see you can change the appearance of the buttons a lot with some simple changes.

You need to purchase a few products before the module shows the items.

The following procedure describes how to specify and activate the URL for your IPN listener in your PayPal profile.

Your listener must be located at the URL that you specify in the profile. Before you activate your listener on PayPal, you should test the listener using the IPN simulator in the Sandbox.

The steps to set up your listener for Sandbox testing and to set up your listener for live operation on PayPal are the same. The only difference is that you log into the Sandbox to set up your listener for Sandbox testing and you log into PayPal to set up your listener for live operation.

After you log in, follow these instructions to set up your listener:

1. Log in to your PayPal business account at www.paypal.com.

2. Click the settings icon at the top of your PayPal account page and then click Profile and settings.
   
   Click My selling tools.

3. Click the Update link in the Instant payment notifications row, in the Getting paid and managing my risk section.

4. Click Choose IPN Settings to specify your listener's URL and activate the listener.

5. Specify the URL for your listener in the Notification URL field.

6. Click Receive IPN messages (Enabled) to enable your listener.

7. Click Save

8. Click Back to Profile Summary to return to the Profile after activating your listener. You also can click Edit settings to modify your notification URL or disable your listener.
   You can click Turn Off IPN to reset your IPN preferences.

This can be fixed in one of two ways but you may have to get your hosting company to do this for you.

Method 1:
Open the "my.ini" file within the MySQL installation directory and look for something like...
# Set the SQL mode to strict
sql-mode="STRICT_TRANS_TABLES,NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER,NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION"

Replace with:
# Set the SQL mode to strict
sql-mode="NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER,NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION"

Method 2:
You may be able to run an SQL query within your database management tool such as phpMyAdmin which can normally be found from your web hosting control panel:

SET @@global.sql_mode= '';

Example:
- Basic Subscription -> $0.00 Monthly Fee -> 10 Products
- Silver Subscription -> $10.00 Monthly Fee-> 50 Products
- Gold Subscription -> $20.00 Monthly Fee-> 150 Products
- Platinum Subscription -> $50.00 Monthly Fee -> Unlimited Products
4. Charge commission per sale and a subscription
5. Charge a flat fee per sale and a subscription

Flat fee and commission charges could be setup globally for all vendors or per vendor basis.

How to setup order journals only vendor account

admin.php?p=vendor_groups
and
admin.php?p=vendor_group

You can now define vendor groups without any of the default "Vendor Privileges" but with only the "Order Journals" as "Additional Vendor Privileges" which enables you to create a vendor order only account.

Please note: You can leave the number of products at 0, it will be counted as 0 and not as unlimited in this case.

You can also create vendors through the admin area, that don't have any permissions set, except for the special order journals permission.

When signing up through the vendor signup page. If the order journals group was created correctly, this group will be listed without any product references at the signup vendor page:

index.php?p=signup_vendor

The whole permission system was redesigned for the vendor frontend to allow restricting the vendor access to specific pages and also allow specific pages. Since the vendor frontend-only used to have a few selected pages, the permission system was only designed to take care of certain settings and was much more permissive, if wrong settings were set.

If you login to an order journals accounts at the frontend, you will see, that the list of available pages is shrunk down to a few pages. namely the vendor resources area, the ticket system and the contact management page and of course the order journals page.

All other pages can't be accessed by the order journals account.

If you uncheck the featured vendor option, in vendor's profile, the particular vendor will not be displayed.

There is no limit on how many vendors will be visible.

With the "subscriptions" option enabled a subscription will be created when the vendor registers to the mall and he will get a warning in his admin area when payment is due. Additionally super admin can setup subscriptions defining how many products a vendor can publish with each subscription option.

* You can use both a "monthly fee" or a "percentage" per sale among with subscriptions.

* You cannot use a "monthly fee" and a "percentage" per sale. You will need to decide for one of the two.
