deadnancy Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 Hello. A bit of background: I'm really only new to osCommerce. I'm a front-end web developer who works primarily in HTML, CSS & JavaScript. I also use perl, PHP & ActionScript fairly often. But today's my first day using osCommerce... So: I set up osCommerce with no problem. I upgraded my local server to PHP 5.2.6, installed mySQL 4.1.22 (because it seems contributions aren't all up to mySQL 5 just yet, and my public test server isn't either), created a database for my shop, installed osCommerce v2.2 RC2, and tweaked the includes to get me away from that nasty 'just-installed' look and feel... Then I logged in to http://localhost/catalog/admin/ and tried to delete the demo products. :blink: HELP! I can find no way to delete products! (Same for alternate languages and currencies!) The 'How Do I...?' post doesn't tell me how I do this. http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=274968 The online docs (from 2005) show convenient little blue trashcans that my install seems to be missing. http://www.oscommerce.info/docs/english/e_products.html The documentation included with the osCommerce download was also no help. The following were recommended reading, but same result: http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=162231 http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=274968 http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=307356 http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=178740 I've also searched both Google and http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/ without success. Finally, much whiskey has given me no insight. Only helpless, pathetic wrath. The story is old, I know, but it goes on. I'm guessing I'm missing something completely obvious, but lord knows I've tried to find the solution. Here's how things look when I go into the Admin tool and follow links in Catalog > Categories/Products. Any ideas? THANKS! deadnancy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadnancy Posted January 3, 2009 Author Share Posted January 3, 2009 Erm... I DID say 'n00b'... Looking at the Admin Tool in Firefox instead of Safari reveals 'edit', 'delete' and 'move' buttons. :blush: Never mind! dn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥geoffreywalton Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 One of my add-ons/contributions clears down the db so you can set up your test product and then when you want to go live run it again and install your production catalog. I am just naturally lazy.
