Re: X-Cart v4.4.2 released
 
The strategy is to have one http load of a compressed, amalgamated file. I agree that it would be difficult to claim the X-CART css is optimized and modular before they attempt to amalgamate and compress it. But it looks like that was their intent. Without the compression, it is really the wrong direction.

I've seen discussions about this on other large open source projects - some think a super-optimized, small css load for the front page then an amalgamated compressed for other pages is the way to go. I'm not sure, but some sort of compression would need to be part of the strategy, else it really looks bad, as you reported.

I may have missed it somewhere, but has there been any indication of when 4.4.3 will be released? I think there are quite a few of us on the sidelines waiting to make a move when that comes out. It's frustrating trying to make a business decision based on this shopping cart. Countless hours will be required to be set aside, etc, and I would like to invest that time well.

Another bug discovered yesterday (already posted in the bug forum), I hope QT sees this as a bug. Importing address book csv file - even though import page in admin shows no required fields make sure zipcode field is not empty or 0. The import will fail with an error message "no entry for this userid in users" which is completelly wrong. Took me a good amount of time to figure out whats going on.

Another bug in 4.4.x; actually I checked 4.2.x and 4.3.x and it exists there as well (partially)

When placing an order as anonymous customer stats info is recorded in "stats_customers_products" table with userid=0 (which do not exists). How to replicate - place an order with anonymous user and check database integrity from admin/maintenance - you will get an error "userid 0 from stats_customers_products doesn't exist in customers table".

What happens:
In include/func/func.order.php -> function func_place_order on or around line 1057
Code:

'userid'            => $userinfo['id'] ? $userinfo['id'] : 0,
which will set userid = 0 for every anonymous customer order. But there is no userid 0. Database integrity check in admin/maintenance doesn't check orders table against customers table so it won't show an error.

On or around line 1259 in the same file (function) starts this if statement
Code:

if (!empty($active_modules['Recommended_Products'])) {

which places a record in "stats_customers_products" table. The above if statement should be
Code:

if (!empty($active_modules['Advanced_Statistics'])) {
This is a statistics table, so why "Recommended_Products" is the condition? So even if you have Advanced_Statistics mod off but Recommended_Products mod on this statistics table gets records. Clearly a bug. That's number one. Number 2 bug is that when that record is placed it has userid=0 for anonymous checkouts which immediatelly will result in data integration error with customers table.

The problem nowadays is that, we have become greedy for features. We 'probably' don't need 70% of what x-cart package contains to sell an item on your site.

I have a site based on 4.2 and doing quite well on it. Yes there are bugs, but they never stop me from selling.



Same as you.... keep upgrading and all this gives me a headache, my 4.2x store works fine, customers can buy what i sell!

I confirm the same thing on database integrity re userid = 0

I just posted a new bug report... again, related to the address book system:

https://bugtracker.qtmsoft.com/view.php?id=39294

Anyone else able to reproduce this on their 4.4.2 site (with Fast-Lane checkout, NOT one-page)? Very odd that I haven't noticed this rather serious problem before, but perhaps I was testing mostly with an already-created account or just wasn't noticing that the updated address data wasn't actually being applied to the order in progres...

Thanks,

Paul

I can say the same thing about about my 4.0 cart...but there still leaves a lot to be desired.
