hi,
i want to show on my slider flash(swf file) file instead image files(gif,jpg)
now i get error on uploading the swf file, how can i fix that?


Hi atzmonca,

The Sliders can slide only images and you can't add anything else. Even if you could upload a swf file then the Sliders wouldn't work as they render <img> tags in the html.
If you have some flash objects then you can simply remove the Sliders and add your flash object instead. This way you Flash will be shown instead of the Sliders but you can't combine them together. Please refer to this blog post of how to add flash into nopCommerce.
You can use the HomePageText topic to show the flash on the Home page.

Hope this helps!

Hi Nop-Templates,

I'm using version 2.8 and did an update trough nuget on TelerikMVCExtensions. When i try to load my homepage with a slider i'm getting this error:

Kan bestand of assembly Telerik.Web.Mvc, Version=2012.2.607.340, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=29ac1a93ec063d92 of een van de afhankelijkheden hiervan niet laden. De manifestdefinitie van de gevonden assembly komt niet overeen met de assembly-verwijzing. (Uitzondering van HRESULT: 0x80131040)

Kan een of meer van de gevraagde typen niet laden. Haal de LoaderExceptions-eigenschap op voor meer informatie.


Is there a way to correct this?


Hi mrbombay,

You get this error because the Sliders plugin is built with the version of Telerik.Web.MVC that comes with nopCommerce 2.8, which is Version=2012.2.607.340.
By the way, we would like to remind you that your 1 year license of the Nop Ultimate Plugin Collection has expired - Support valid until: 3/14/2013. You can still use the product without any problems but we do recommend you to renew your license and continue to receive product updates and support. Please refer to our Licensing FAQs for more information.

Thanks

Hello,

thank you for your quick response!! another question: I noticed that you set 2 products per row on the homepage. Can you make 3 products per row instead of 2?
thanks


Hi toanhnt,

The number of products is always 2 in this theme by design and it is so because of the layout of the theme, which is a 3 column layout. Actually there is no enough space in the middle to fit 3 product boxes. Of course this could be changed but you need to make changes in the styling of the theme i.e changing the width of the product boxes, so that 3 boxes can fit in the middle column.

We have some good news for you as we just released the DarkOrange and nopClassic themes for nopCommerce 3.0. You can just download the theme package from your My Downloads section.

Thanks

Hi,

i am using several plugins (Nop Ultimate Plugin Collection),
and my custom CSS is getting loaded BEFORE the plugin's CSS,
so when i want to overwrite some things, i need to put " !important " in my CSS which is not a very good practice.

can i have my custom CSS loaded after the plugin's CSS ??

i want to be clear, i am NOT talking about nop default "styles.rtl.css",
i am talking about PLUGIN css.

Thanks,
Shay


Hi Shay,

Yes, it is not a good practice to use !important. Basically you want to separate your changes to the css of plugins from the Ultimate Plugin Collection and to do this in the best possible manner.
There are two options here:
1. Have a separate custom.pluginname.css file i.e custom.ajaxcart.css and include this css in the view(.cshtml) file of the plugin. This approach will be working but is not the best one as you will need to go through all the plugins and modify their views and also add new files for each plugin.
2. The better approach here is to have a styles.custom.plugins.css file that is included LAST. This way any definitions in it will override the styling in the plugins and all you need to do is to include a single file (for better performance). Here is how to do this:
- Go to your theme folder i.e DefaultClean and add a new file in the Content folder styles.custom.plugins.css
- Include this file to be last by modifying the _Root.Head.cshtml file as shown below (just add the line in bold).

@Html.NopCssFiles(this.Url, ResourceLocation.Head)
    <link type="text/css" rel="Stylesheet" href="@Url.Content("~/Themes/DefaultClean/Content/styles.custom.plugins.css")" />
    @Html.NopScripts(this.Url, ResourceLocation.Head)


Now you can easily override any css definitions without the need to add !important and at the same time have all your style changes separated in a file, which will make your future upgrades a breeze.

Hope this helps!

Hi firthy,

Please specify another location for the Visual Studio project as otherwise the file location is too long. The path should be less than 255 characters. Simply change the "C:\Users\Tangent\Documents\Visual Studio 2008\WebSites\selectalsico" to be "C:\nopCommerce".

Great plugin - I'd love to have a reminder that let's me send a reward point reminder to my users.

For example, I might set it up to send out a monthly email saying "Hey So & So, don't forget you've got 300 points worth $15 to use on the store."


Hi rscott78,

That's a very good idea. Would you mind sharing it in our UserVoice portal and let other users vote for it.

Thanks

I'm using the reminders plugin for my 3.0 setup. I've got a "Abandoned Cart" reminder setup to send after 12 hours, but I get the email after just a few minutes of adding an item to my cart.

Here's a screen shot of my setup:

Hi rscott78,

It looks like your setup is not correct. If you want to send the first reminder only after 12 hours since the shopping cart item has been added then you should set the "Condition Met Date Earlier Than:" to be 12 hours (your current one is empty, which defaults to 0 minutes). You should also set the "Condition Met Date Later Than:" to be something like 5 days for example, which means that any customer with a shopping cart item that has been added 5 days ago won't be bothered with reminders.
I think the names of the settings are a bit confusing and unclear, so any suggestions of changing them are welcome.

Thanks

Hi:

Noticed an issue. When we do search on pattern on the home page, and the matching string options are more then 3-4, the Nop Mega Menu blocks the view of matching strings available in the store.

Please let me know if you have the fix for it.

Regards,


Hi rgujral,

Just searched on our demo store with "gift" and the search results are not hidden under the Mega Menu. What browser do you use and can you reproduce this on our demo store?

Thanks

Hello,

we just started to develop an own responsive template. How long would it take if we would wait for you?

Regards

Hi Jörg,

We have been very busy lately preparing for nopCommerce 3.0 and we did quite a lot of improvements in all our plugins and themes for the nopCommerce 3.0 release. Most of these changes will ease us in creating a responsive theme. We plan to start working on a new responsive theme once we finish with the 3.0 release. I can't give you an estimate when the new theme will be ready as this will be our first responsive theme and having in mind that we add all our plugins in our themes then this will require making all our plugins responsive as well.

Hope this information is helpful!
