Mort-lemur Posted December 16, 2013 Author Share Posted December 16, 2013 OK I have found a bit of a problem following database transfer - The customer Login Details do not work, even though the customer exists in the database with a password. When I try to log in as a customer my password does not work (my master password does work) - any Ideas where to look ? Many Thanks Looks like this may be something to do with the way the password is encrypted on 2.3.3.4 being different to that used on 2.2 - oh well its not a big issue to request a new password.

Mort-lemur Posted December 17, 2013 Author Share Posted December 17, 2013 Guess nobody knows where the password conversion is carried out........... But I have finished optimising all my images now using the tool above, and ran the speed tast at http://gtmetrix.com/ again. Very pleased with the results as far as images go - the score against images has changed from a D to a B. Next I will post the items that seem to be slowing the site down - if anyone has any suggestions or fixes it would be great to hear them (without having to go the (CDN route) Now running on a fully modded, Mobile Friendly 2.3.4 Store with the Excellent MTS installed - See my profile for the mods installed .....

♥altoid Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 After several page speed tests decided my images were letting me down - as they were not compressed to their optimum - but what to do? 3000 images! Did some research and found a programme called FileOptimiser - which can batch process image compression , Downloaded a few images from my site and ran them through this - some were reduced in size by 64% without a loss in quality. Now downloading in batches of 300, optimising then uploading again. Apparently also compresses other file types such as PDFs May be of use to somebody.... Link: http://nikkhokkho.sourceforge.net/static.php?page=FileOptimizer This is handy. I've been manually optimizing images, one by one by one......doing these in a batch is nice. It even reduced my manually optimized images by 10% further. :thumbsup: I am not a professional webmaster or PHP coder by background or training but I will try to help as best I can. I remember what it was like when I first started with osC. It can be overwhelming. However, I strongly recommend considering hiring a professional for extensive site modifications, site cleaning, etc. There are several good pros here on osCommerce.

burt Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Guess nobody knows where the password conversion is carried out........... Or perhaps you're expected to at least have a think about it... // migrate old hashed password to new phpass password and this would happen where?

I would rename the images in all lower case, and fix the code that calls them, but you could also add JPG to the FilesMatch string in your htaccess. I believe that the expiration time of a file must be set by the site that is serving that file, so you can't do anything about the ones you are getting from outside. It might be possible to move some of those files to your site where you can control them. Regards Jim See my profile for a list of my addons and ways to get support.

Also install and configure: admin > modules > header_tags > twitter cards If you want to see what a Twitter card is/does, make a new tweet containing this URL : http://template.me.uk/testing/product_info.php?cPath=21&products_id=28 (or visit that page and click the "t" button in the share product box, then compare it to what happens if you click that same "t" button at your site).
