Ok, I'll give you an example of this behavior.
If you look the source from this category page http://www.parafarmacia.it/benessere (SmartSEO is active with 'Append product names to keywords for category pages' on)  you'll see the keywords with the name of the products on the page: ok right. Now go to the second page (or click http://www.parafarmacia.it/benessere#/pageSize=18&orderBy=0&pageNumber=2) and look at the keywords of this page: you'll see the same keywords of the first page, not the name of the products on the second page. And so on. Thank you.  


Hi nopnopgogo!,

Sorry for the late reply!

Please note that you have the Ajax Filters enabled and the second page is open via Ajax, which means that the page is not refreshed and you are basically on the same page but only the products are different. Please note that the search engines simply ignore anything that is after the # tag in the URL.
So the SEO Meta Data would change only after you go to the second page without Ajax i.e yourstore.com/category?pageNumber=2.
Actually there was a caching issue and the Meta Data was cached the first time you visit a category for example and it wouldn't change if you visit the other pages. We fixed this issue and now each page shows the correct Meta Data. You can update the plugin as explained here.

Hi,



what do you think on implementing a price subranging selector in place of the current price full range like some plugin in Magento / PS? Now the price range is from 0 to xx. Maybe you can implement an option with the number of subranges (eg. 4) and the price range show from 0 to xx/4, from xx/4 to xx/3, etc... Thanks


Hi nopnopgogo!,

Thank you for the suggestion!

We will think about it but I personally think that this could be quite a limitation for the end customers as they will not have a full control.

Please note that the Ajax Filters plugin uses the jQuery UI Slider control for the Price Range Slider.
So you can customize the slider to use a step parameter as demonstrated here.

Hope this helps!

Since I don't really do theme and UI modifications for my clients, I recommended early on to one client that they should hire someone else to do the theme css tweaks and UI/UX work.  We built the site on Shop All 3.50 and modified out of the box nop functionality fairly extensively.  We added plugins and modified many of the view files in the Shop All theme.  Yesterday my client called me and said that he has talked to now 3 people who refused to take on the project because we used the Shop All theme.  One told him 'that was the worst thing you could do is to use a third party theme'.  I replied that the Shop All theme, like any of your themes, are MEANT to be customized and there are thousands of sites on nop using your themes that are very heavily customized with css tweaks, plugins, moving elements around the pages, and more.  I know that you cannot customize the logic behind some of the plugins, however if a plugin does not do what you want then don't install it and either find another that behaves the way you want or write your own.    Am I missing something here?  Why would a so called 'nop expert' say that?  Ignorance?   Misinformation or unfamiliarity with your themes ?  

By the way, if anyone reading this does nop-template theme customizations and would like to take on a project for a US company, my client would love to talk to you.  Please PM me.  

Thanks

Hi Shawn,

I can't comment on why these so called "experts" have refused your project.
In my opinion I think that they may just don't want to work on the project and try to find excuses.

Regarding anyone that pretends to be a "nopCommerce expert" I just want to mention the fact that that around 30-40% of all nopCommerce websites that are created use any of our themes.
As you correctly pointed some of the websites are heavily customized and you can see only a potion of these websites in our Pinterest page.

Anyway I am sure that there will be many developers reading this forum that will be able to help you.

Hi there,  I'm wondering if I can do this kind customization on this theme.

My customer wants to have a div on the right part of banner, this div will display some countdown

selling items. So it won't be a static content. Please take a look at attached picture.



Please help out.

Thanks.

Lin


Hi Lin,

I guess you want to have the countdown timer next to the main Slider an not above it as shown in the picture. To achieve this you need to add your div next to the Slider which is integrated via this code on the Home page.
In this file:
Themes\Pavilion\Views\Shared\Header.cshtml

Basically right after this line (around line 137):
@homePageMainSlider

You need to call your own action that will return your dynamic content with the countdown timer.

Hope this helps!

We're having an issue with the Rich Blog post scheduling.

We had the blog post set to go live on 7/1 at 12am


but the post went live instead on 6/30 at 8pm
http://i.imgur.com/G1aKFRQ.png

The start dates are different for the same post. The date on the /Admin/Blog/List page is when it actually posted, but that is incorrect. Once you click edit, the date under /Admin/Blog/Edit/158 is correct, but it did not post at that date.

Please let me know if you have any ideas as to why this is happening.


Hi baloghc,

Please note that the blog post scheduling is not part of the Rich Blog plugin but it is part of the default nopCommerce Blog functionality.
The only thing that comes to my mind is that all the dates you enter in nopCommerce are considered to be in UTC time. So you need to set the UTC time instead of your local time.

Hope this helps!

Hi Damir,

Hello again,

I'm sorry but I don't really see the problem here. If you would change the logic in this then it's just a simple matter of reading the resource string in use and copy it to an appropriate setting when running the update.I suppose there is an SQL script that can be run on the update?
Anyway, I don't really have a problem with this being updated in 3.8, but I think it should be quite easy to copy few resource strings...


The problem is that the resources are per language while the settings are per store :)
The questions is if you have 3 languages in your store then which of them to use when creating the setting?

I hope you see my point now :)

Actually if you have separate languages for each of your stores (you can limit a language per store) then you can have different information about the addresses etc. and you wouldn't need settings.

How do you turn off payment types for this image? Do you have to edit the image or replace it? Can I disable it somehow? After every upgrade the image comes back with all the options. We do not accept paypal or American express.


Hi usautomatic,

If it is a matter of just hiding some of payment types then you can quite easily hide them with css only.

If you want to hide PayPal and American Express, which are the first and third type in the list then you can add this code below in the Custom Head Styles box in the theme settings:

.accepted-payment-methods .method1, .accepted-payment-methods .method3 {
display: none;
}

This will hide these 2 payment types.

Hello Nop Templates Team!

We noticed the Uptown theme page features the "Nop Newsletter" plugin as a highlight. This is exciting for us as it's something customers have been requesting for some time. However, we're having issues with it actually capturing emails.  When we tried to consult the documentation via the plugin help menu, we get a 404.

We noticed in the documentation for the Uptown theme that there isn't a link to this feature, like the rest of the plugins. Your Uptown theme demo page no longer seems to be using it either. Are there known issues with this plugin? Or is it just perhaps my setup?

Any info is appreciated.

Thanks,
Powertex


Hi Powertex,

This plugin is not officially released as a separate plugin that could be purchased.
That is why it does not have any documentation etc. We plan to make this plugin much more powerful and then we will release it as a separate plugin.

Hi there...
We have a problem with the theme and I wonder if it's possible to fix it.
We have a multi site installation, where the main site is using default theme and another one is running Pavilion. The problem is that product categories should have different images on these two sites. They also have different sizes and it looks a bit weird on the site with Pavilion theme. Ans we really need different images for categories, it's not just the size issue. We have category routers for example, and we need to show different router as category image so we don't have wrong brand product on any of those sites (it will be 4-5 different sites eventually).

So how can it be done? Is it possible to make category information different on a site basis?
Thanx in advance,
Damir


Hi Damir,

Unfortunately the multi-store support in nopCommerce allows you to limit the whole category to a certain store but you can't have different parts of that category to be per store i.e different images per store etc.
In other words in this case (when you need to have different images) you will need to have different categories for each store.

Hi Damir,

I can assure you that we will correct these to be settings rather than resources.

Hi there!
I just wanted to check if this is implemented as setting now. We want to release another site, but we need different contact information in footer.
Thankx,
Damir


Hi Damir,

No, it is not implemented yet. The main reason why we haven't done so is that existing store owners that update their themes will need to reconfigure their shops to use the new settings. Most store owners don't have multi-store but will still be affected. So we are a bit reluctant to do it now rather than doing this as part of the upgrade to 3.8. At the same time when running a multi-store then you have no way to change it so we will rethink this again if there is a way to make these changes. If we come up with a good way to do this and make the updates as smooth as possible for existing store owners then we will do it.
