Edit Multiple Items
In X-CART 5...where did it go!!!!
Also where are product dimensions? They used to be on the product page and they affect shipping rates. Two strangely missing things in the new (better?) x-cart 5? Or am I missing something? |
Re: Edit Multiple Items
No not missing it. Just not in XC5...

Re: Edit Multiple Items
Wow.
Hmm...do you know the reason why? I thought new versions would make things better not less functional. The front end changes are great, but I wonder why they stripped away those two things. Especially dimensions, how does that help shipping to be accurate? People keep pushing me to magento...maybe I need to start looking at it. |

X-Cart 5 is a new software written from the scratch. Editing multiple items at once is a feature that has not been implemented yet. Quote:
Choose "Yes" in the "Ship in a separate box" setting when editing a product and the dimension fields will show up. |

This article will give you a good idea on the costs of such a website: http://sherodesigns.com/magento-website-cost/how-much-does-a-magento-website-cost-general-pricing-guidelin...o-look-for/#ce Actually these prices quoted are below industry standards. Go for it! This software is a bloated beast, and the companies that work with it are just preying on the public. You will get much more bang for your buck with XC. |

Hi there, we generally ship in one envelope or box, so does that mean we don't need to define each product dimensions? just trying to understand that part. Thanks for responding. |

Here is how it works when you do not specify product dimensions: 1. In settings you configure the "general" parcel dimensions. 2. When calculating the shipping cost XC5 will put all ordered products into a single parcel having the "general" dimensions. The only exception is when ordered products exceed the max weight allowed for a parcel by the carrier. In this case products will be split into multiple "general" parcels by weight. And if you specify dimensions for a product, it is assumed that this product is so large that can't fit the "general" parcel along with other products, so it has to be shipped in a dedicated parcel. |

This is not good enough as UPS charges for dimensional shipping. We need to be able to have it work like it did in X-Cart 4... all items get dimensions (which can be viewable on the product page under specifications which is nice for helping people know they are getting the right product) ... then it needs to calculate if they all fix in a box. Admin should have a list of box sizes we carry. Then it should put them all in the smallest box that they all fit in. If they don't fit it should split to 2 boxes. Just by weight is not good enough. Please consider adding a module that adds box sizes and works this way. Ship in seperate box is bad... you turn that on and then your order now ships in 2 boxes regardless of what the sizes of the objects were. |
Re: Edit Multiple Items
Any time frame for the ability to edit multiple products simultaneously? This is an extremely important feature.
