partial shipping

llewis — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 16:57:01 GMT

How does partial shipping options work with regard to re-calculating shipping charges, will the order be marked "partially shipped" or only "shipped" upon full shipment? Is there an email sent to the customer that details what has shipped and what is pending?

Address Book Now appearing at checkout

jlk — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 20:47:27 GMT

Did the checkout screen change automatically without me making any changes? It seems there is now an address book on multiple sites I operate. Why would an address book show up for a user who is not logged in or is not a member of the site? Is there a way of removing this?

Why is Hot Sellers excluding our most popular seller?

Daniel White — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 18:01:05 GMT

I checked the Knowledgebase and it says for Hot Sellers:

Hot Items based on total sales of an item. There is no override

Yet, instead of displaying our top selling item, it displays #2, #3, #4, and #7 (I show four items).

Is the issue that the module is exclusive? Our #1 selling item is a spotlight item. However, while our #5 item is a spotlight item our #6 is not.

How to see/edit design of order processing pages?

Brent — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 22:32:32 GMT

How do we go about seeing/modifying pages that are part of the cart check out process, ie View Order, My Account, Receipt, etc? I understand how to access the CSS theme templates, but how do we actually view these post-transaction pages to modify their design without actually running a real order through the cart?

Thanks for any advice.

Problem in Product Details page with variant images

Dave F — Wed, 07 Oct 2009 01:25:12 GMT

I have two variants for my product. I'm using image association and I have one product image (100.jpg) and the variant images (100_var_color_black.jpg and 100_var_color_white.jpg) defined. In the Product Details page it displays my main image (which is actually the same as one of the variant images (100_var_color_black.jpg), but renamed) when I select White in the Color dropdown, it displays the white image but when I select Zoom, it displays the main image (which is the black image). If I don't define the main image (100.jpg) it displays the "Image Unavailable" graphic. I still get the correct image when I select for the Color dropdown.

The question is: Is there any way for the variant image to be displayed when you click Zoom instead of the main image?

Thanks in advance,

Dave

Pricing in Multiple Currencies- third party product?

Valenzuela — Tue, 29 Sep 2009 22:55:31 GMT

I've got a couple of storefronts we are working on because we need to process transactions in different currencies. My upload spreadsheets are getting a little messy and beginning to give me errors because I have long and complex pricing variations for some of my products. Is there a third party product that I could integrate with AC that would help me manage pricing across stores and microstores in different currencies with different variants? (I know there are such products for tax and shipping activities. I just haven't seen one for pricing)

An AC Directory?

SafetyStore — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 16:06:24 GMT

With many Hosts their is a page or directory of websites using the product beyond http://www.americommerce.com/store/pg/80-AmeriCommerce-Web-Design-Portfolio.aspx. Its nice because the new customers/developers get to see others completed sites using the product. It also gives all of us another link pointing to our sites. Usually this is an opt-in thing, as most people like to wait until the site looks good.

Report on Coupon Codes?

What’s new at ClickShops this month?

Hi ##CUSTOMERFIRSTNAME##,

The launch of www.prefabricatedgaragekits.com
Acquisition of www.leatherfurniture.com
New massagechairs.com, gunsafes.com, and businessofficefurniture.com logos

As you can see we’ve had a busy month! We’re proud to announce the launch of our newest website www.prefabricatedgaragkits.com. These innovative structures are a great addition to our collection of unique products. They’re easily assembled in just one weekend and with the Versatube patented wage ‘slip-fit’ framing system there’s no construction experience required!

We have introduced a feature on the site that is new to the industry. For the first time ever on the internet you can browse prefabricated garage kits and view pricing. In the past, customers had to call manufacturers to receive a quote, sometimes even being forced to put down a non-refundable deposit. But that’s all history! ClickShops has now made it possible for you to view dimensions, colors, styles, and prices at your own discretion.

LeaterFurniture.com is also one of our new domain names. We’re very pleased to acquire this site for we already have great relationships with our furniture manufacturers and this site provides a forum for us to showcase their top-of-the line leather furniture collections. Last but not least we’ve given several of our logos a facelift! Be sure to check out our new massagechairs.com, gunsafes.com, and businessofficefurniture.com logos. We sure like them and hope you do to! That’s all for now.

Until Next Time,

The ClickShops Team

Bad phone numbers

SafetyStore — Sun, 09 Aug 2009 23:17:06 GMT

How do you handle bad phone numbers in the order?

either 000-000-0000 of 555 555-1212 etc.

do you hold the order?

send them an email?

Sometimes we need to ask questions of the customer (an incorrect USPS address, unclear request, bounce back on the email address etc.) No phone number makes us nervous. I know they may think they are reducing spam calls, but 1 out of every 50 we have a question. 1 out of every 150 puts in the bad number

Complicated product varient layout - need thoughts

SafetyStore — Sat, 08 Aug 2009 22:00:49 GMT

I am trying to layout some personalzation for some apparel we sell but I am getting confused. So I thought I would ask the real AC field experts. The product I am experimenting on is the following: http://safetystore.americommerce.com/store/p/1068-Woman-s-Poplin-Scrub-Top.aspx. The customer can buy it plain top or add embroidered letters, stock or custom logo, or a sewed on patch. I would like to make it as easy for the customer to fully describe what they want and give us a full description without having to call the customer to get more details. I think AC variants can do all of this but the layout has me stuck.

For instance, you can add a text box for a question but they are always at the top of the page. Can I move the text boxes down intersperced between other pull down menus and radio buttons? Changing the sort number doesn't change the placement on the page.

Can I set up two rows of buttons etc. for "Left Side" and "Right Side" options? this would illistrate the location better for the customer.

Any thoughts would be extremely Helpful

Below I made a very simple design layout.

Size: Matrix

Scrub Top Color: (Pull Down)

Embroidery Threat Color: (Pull Down)

Right Chest	Left Chest

Variant Matrix Image Merge

Gummer — Thu, 06 Aug 2009 21:16:46 GMT

I'm trying to use a variant matrix and adding a picture for the variant. I've found the two articles on variant images (KB#196 & 204), but am not able to successfully implement this code. In my page Themes>>Default>>Product Detail

I have placed the merge code, ##VARIANTPICMATRIX[groupname=ROC-BOH]## as shown below. Still no images. Can anyone help with the proper code placement?

         <table>
            <tr>
                <td>
                    $$VARIANTMATRIX$$
##VARIANTPICMATRIX[groupname=VRC-NB Species]##

                    <div class="ProductDetailsVariantMatrixAddToCartButton">$$VARIANTMATRIXADDTOCART$$</div>
                </td>
            </tr>

Search box font size not consistent

fryoneusa — Mon, 03 Aug 2009 15:38:39 GMT

I have customized my SearchBox snap-in input text font to be 14pt. No problem. But, when the user searches, the resulting search page still shows a tiny font in the search input box on that new page. I have looked EVERWHERE to adjust that font. Should it not be pulling in the same code from the SearchBox snap-in? I don't get it. Any help?

Is there an Advanced Design and Layout Manual?

Shipping method and charges

MikeM — Tue, 28 Jul 2009 22:28:21 GMT

Hi, greetings from the UK

I am evaluating at the moment. Our company offers free shipping for all orders over £150, We deliver all goods ourselves so I dont want the option to select any shipping method at all. All I want to see is a £15 charge for shipping if order less then £150 and a £0 shipping charge for orders over that. So If a customer adds an item to cart that is £100 it will calculate a £15 charge but if they add another item of say £100 it will recalculate a zero charge for shipping.

I have managed to work out how to do free shipping but not the £15 charge for orders under £150 and I cannot get rid of the "Estimate your shipping costs:" part when customers view cart.

Any help would be appreciated.

Mike

Live shipping with Fed Ex and Matrix

Gummer — Tue, 28 Jul 2009 19:44:13 GMT

Can there be both types of methods available to the customer?

Seems like it should be but want to confirm. Can we have a price based matrix and also connect to Fed Ex, which would allow customer to chose from either?

Thanks!

Need to create a pop up info window

Suzie — Fri, 24 Jul 2009 19:00:25 GMT

I have been asked to add a pop up window to the beginning of one of my micro stores. I have added a static block of info to first page of this particular micro store but they really want to get the message out so they also want a pop up window with the same info and possibly a link to another one of the micro stores. I am not familiar with scripting things and not sure how to make this work. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance for any and all help.

Cloned storefront... different product pricing.

Chuck — Tue, 14 Jul 2009 21:34:28 GMT

Have an Americommerce storefront with 400+ items. All is well with this main store. Created another storefront with the same inventory... this is our "shadow discount" site not "oficially" connected to the main store. Want the shadow store to have across the board lower prices. Read the Americommerce KB article about going into each product and adding multi-store pricing... which is fine if you have just a handful of products.

Is there a way to do a product pricing export of the current inventory, add the shadow store pricing using Excel and then upload all the data so the shadow store uses the new pricing?

Price in red color when Retail Price higher

millennia — Sun, 05 Jul 2009 17:30:50 GMT

I would like to have the product Price automatically appear in red when the Retail Price field includes a higher price, similar to the way it appears in this image:

http://myamericommerce.com/blogs/feature_release_history_production_path/image_0E9AD608.png

I thought I had seen a page explaining how to do this, but I can't seem to find it.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
