Please review my custom emblem site.

[Guest]

This is my first post! I want to thank all the great members of osCommerce who offer their support and contributions which enabled a complete newbie of php as myself to make this site possible -and at such a low cost! Creating this site http://uspin.net/index.php was very interesting -and at times very stressful. I think for me the biggest problem was configuring the secure ordering with a shared certificate. The purchase of my own certificate was the best addition to overcome my biggest obstacle. Everything now seems to work much quicker, more efficiently and even looks better in the address bar. I hope to add the Product Setup Fee contribution so the setup fee does not have to be ordered separately from the product -but this contribution seems to be buggy and with incomplete instructions. Later I will add the ability to order products besides pins and to add stock items. Any comments, criticisms or advise is welcome.

The sample pins scrolling on the right side is giving me a headache.

 

Get rid of:

 

# of Requests

IP address

 

Viewing by pin size is kind of odd, different, but odd. I would use a images instead of text. It all confuses me.

 

It looks a bit stockish.

 

I would like to see what th product looks like...

That's not to be rude or anything. I hope you can take that constructively.

Thanks for your thoughts. I did remove the request and the IP. Since the pins are ordered custom made by size, I figured this way would be the most logical as pictures cannot show exact sizes on different size monitors -can they? The scrolling pics are scans of some pins made for past customers. Do you think it would help to use less pics and slow it down?

Thanks

hi there ,

 

of course.,..

 

well if you put like 100000000000000000000000 pins in your cart and see what happens!!

or just update you cart - when you have a product in the cart - with for ex. 100000000000000000000000 peaces!!!

 

100000000000000000000000 costs the same as 1!!!! :-"

Does that really matter? Up to a trillion pins can be ordered without that problem. If someone orders more than that I probably would become suspicious. Is there a way to squash the bug?

Hi,

 

to me? :blink: no it doesn?t matter to me... it?s not my shop! B)

 

But when a client order like pieces... what are you gonna tell him? He did place the order through your website according to your conditions! I?m not sure what you law tells you...

 

But as i said before.... it soesn?t really matter to me. just wanna do you a favour!

 

*************

Search for the following line in your catalog/shopping_cart.php

 

***********

$info_box_contents[$cur_row][] = array('align' => 'center',

'params' => 'class="productListing-data" valign="top"',

'text' => tep_draw_input_field('cart_quantity[]', $products[$i]['quantity'], 'size="4" onFocus="advisecustomer();"') . tep_draw_hidden_field('products_id[]', $products[$i]['id']));

 

**************

 

and change it with this code..

 

********************

$info_box_contents[$cur_row][] = array('align' => 'center',

'params' => 'class="productListing-data" valign="top"',

'text' => tep_draw_input_field('cart_quantity[]', $products[$i]['quantity'], 'size="4" maxlength="5" onFocus="advisecustomer();"') . tep_draw_hidden_field('products_id[]', $products[$i]['id']));

 

***************

 

maxlength="5"

this let?s you configure the maximum length of the quantity number.

So "5" makes it possible for client to order maximum "99999" pieces.

"4" = "9999"

 

so edit it as you wish!

First thing I noticed was the American flag. Personaly I would not order from your site because of it.

 

If you want to sell outside of your own country I would change it.

Of course I know it doesn't matter to you. I was thinking it didn't matter to me. Can't imagine the law requiring me to give up a gazillion pins for the cost of one. No reason to invite problems -so I changed the code.

Thanks alot for your advise and your time.

Hi thisheart

Please tell me why would you not order because of the flag? I assume you don't dislike America if you are helping me. Would you order otherwise?

Would you have a suggestion of what should go there? I don't want to leave it empty.

It has nothing to do with hating America and everything about being patriotic.

The American flag is the symbol of American patorism, however noone out

of the country feels the same way.

 

I would put something that relates to what you are selling. Some good pics of your

products would help.

Thanks for your thoughts.

This is a very important area as it gives the first impression. I am considering some alternatives.
