MrPhil Posted January 11, 2013 Posted January 11, 2013 By any chance are you supposed to install some specific level of osC first, and then sprinkle the new files from the "template" over that? It certainly doesn't appear to be a complete osC installation in and of itself.

MrPhil Posted January 11, 2013 Posted January 11, 2013 Presumably the "install" would have to be run at some point in the process, and you may or may not have to manually set up the database for it (as you do with a manual osC installation). If they don't give clear instructions on how to install it, I'd suggest chucking it and starting with a fresh copy of osC 2.3.3. You don't have to pay a penny for any form of osC -- it's free software. That said, if you find the stock store unsatisfactory and are unable or unwilling to customize it yourself, you may not have any choice but to buy something off the shelf. It's up to you. With this particular "template", at least make sure it's based on osC 2.3.x and not 2.2 or earlier. You're wasting your money if you buy a new store based on an obsolete version of osC.
