In 2.1 a product can belong to multiple categories. Is this no longer possible in 2.2? My drop down list only lets me select one.

Tax sytems: what is the difference between VAT system and VAT system (alternative)

Errors reported when generating HTML template pages using the 'HTML design import/export' feature

Have a look: http://forum.litecommerce.com/viewtopic.php?p=128249#128249

VAT system (alternative) can show separate VAT values for products and shipping.

There are just warnings, not errors :) Those images will be included in the final release.

:? :D :lol: :lol: :lol:

Skins & templates
 

Looking for some clarification on the idea behind these functions.

Skins:
I see it is possible to select different skins. Am I correct in thinking that a skin is a collection of templates? Is it also possible to create your own skin?

Design import/export templates:
This function generates html pages which you can then download and edit offline. I opened the generated main.html file and have to say it looks nothing like the 'live' version. The structure of the page was broken and it was not suitable for editing in a WYSIWIG format. I guess what I am saying is that unless I have done something wrong I dont get how this feature is very usefull.

Templates & upgrades:
One of the features of 2.2 was that it will make it easier to apply upgrades & patches while keeping changes to the visual design of the pages. Is this still the case, and does it apply also to modules (addons)?

Re: Skins & templates
 

Yes.


We'll check this functionality, thanks.


Not sure I understand you correctly.

Skins: Great, i can see where you choose which skin you would like to use but I do not see where you can create your own one?

Templates & upgrades

I understood this to mean that: if I create my own skin the changes I have made will not be overwritten everytime I have to install a upgrade/bug fix for either the core files or addon modules.

Now you cannot create your own skin in the admin zone, but you can create it on your file system (by hand, of course).


Not exactly.


Sorry if that has not been clear. This sentence means that, when you switch your store to use a different design skin, LC installation mechanism calls a special routine from each of the modules installed at your store that tries to apply the skin design to the templates used by that module.
