Shampoosoftheworld.Com

[klettke]

I just recently got www.shampoosoftheworld.com up and running. The site is running an STS-based template. I know that there's some errors in the flash header, namely the links only work when the text on the button is clicked and not elsewhere. I'm a student so I'll have a lot of time to fine tune the site once finals end.

 

I'm advertising on Google Adwords and by word of mouth. So far, I've only had about 25 people come to the site from Adwords (with no purchases) but have had a few purchases from friends so I know that the ordering process (I use 2checkout) does work.

 

I'm open to any and all suggestions/criticisms!

 

(BTW, it is a live store so remember not to check out)

 

Thanks,

Scott

I kept getting "this page contains both secure and insecure information" - this needs sorting out.

Needs alot of work. First fix your flash menu. Every link I went to on it is broken. Second get rid of the ending gif pics that are at the ends of New Products For December. Your search icon needs to be changed to match your site. Also get rid of blue border and link arround SSL logo cause it links to where you bought the cert giving the user no actual info on SSL.

Thanks for the suggestions. I'll try and fix those errors. Boxtel, is there some way of putting a max quantity that a person can order? (I actually thought it would limit them to the amount I have in stock...)

What version of IE are you using? This is caused by an error in IE 4.0.

 

See this site: http://client.equitable.co.uk/et/market.ns...tips#SECURITYQ1 and http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=197714

 

But, I should probably still fix this somehow so the site works for people with older browsers.

bad stuff happening on your site. You have lots of work to do before asking for a review IMHO.

Not my site, but I keep seeing people point out this error, but I've never been able to find out how to fix it! Can anyone provide a link? (It's hard to search for the solution to this, when the only common word is a string of 9s :rolleyes: )

the funny thing with this is that when you go high enough with the quantity in your cart, the price reverts back to the price of 1 product. And you can checkout with that price if checkout beyond stocklevels is allowed.

 

it depends a little on where you allow quantity updates for your cart.

if you have a quantity input field in the cart itself, you can, or should, restrict the quantity they can enter in application_top.php:

 

case 'update_product' : for ($i=0, $n=sizeof($HTTP_POST_VARS['products_id']); $i<$n; $i++) {

 

there you can limit the quantity to 999 for instance.

 

I personally only provide a dropdown box that does not go beyond my stock level.

Thanks, but I'm still a bit confused as to where to actually enter the limit number (ie 999)?

ok,

 

this is the function in your shopping_cart.php class to update the quantity:

 

function update_quantity($products_id, $quantity = '', $attributes = '') {

global $customer_id;

 

if (empty($quantity)) return true; // nothing needs to be updated if theres no quantity, so we return true..

 

if ($quantity < (tep_get_products_stock($products_id)+1)) {

 

$this->contents[$products_id] = array('qty' => $quantity);

// update database

if (tep_session_is_registered('customer_id')) tep_db_query("update " . TABLE_CUSTOMERS_BASKET . " set customers_basket_quantity = '" . $quantity . "' where customers_id = '" . (int)$customer_id . "' and products_id = '" . tep_db_input($products_id) . "'");

 

if (is_array($attributes)) {

reset($attributes);

while (list($option, $value) = each($attributes)) {

$this->contents[$products_id]['attributes'][$option] = $value;

// update database

if (tep_session_is_registered('customer_id')) tep_db_query("update " . TABLE_CUSTOMERS_BASKET_ATTRIBUTES . " set products_options_value_id = '" . (int)$value . "' where customers_id = '" . (int)$customer_id . "' and products_id = '" . tep_db_input($products_id) . "' and products_options_id = '" . (int)$option . "'");

}

}

}

}

 

 

as you can see, I have added the condition :

 

if ($quantity < (tep_get_products_stock($products_id)+1)) {

 

 

that means that I will not add more than I have in stock.

 

you can also say :

 

if ($quantity <= 999) {

like the header and the colour scheme

nice easy to find layout for me anyways, I get lazy at websites, wanna find it right now.......

would be nice to find out what country I was buying from. Is this an issue for other ppl or not?
