Then, last Wednesday, I submitted an actual order through your website. My name is Wojciech Potrykus. I received an automated confirmation of receipt back from your site but nothing else.

Did you get it? I'm ready to do business whenever you are.

Hi Wojciech,

Can somebody elaborate on the install process? What are the steps?

If you have customized your skins does it overwrite them?

Jon, you can use TWO ways to install the skin:

1. method(overwrite):
-----------------
- Upload all files inside the 7_dana_theme folder to the X-Cart/skin1 directory.

2. method:
-----------------
- Upload 7_dana_theme folder to the directory where X-Cart has been installed.
- Open the xcart_root/smarty.php file in the text editor and find this lines:

$smarty->template_dir = $xcart_dir."/skin1";
$smarty->config_dir = $xcart_dir."/skin1";
$smarty->secure_dir = $xcart_dir."/skin1";
$smarty->assign("ImagesDir",$xcart_web_dir."/skin1/images");
$smarty->assign("SkinDir",$xcart_web_dir."/skin1");


and replace all words "skin1" with the new SKIN name(directory name).

EXAMPLE:
$smarty->template_dir = $xcart_dir."/7_amazon_red";
$smarty->config_dir = $xcart_dir."/7_amazon_red";
$smarty->secure_dir = $xcart_dir."/7_amazon_red";
$smarty->assign("ImagesDir",$xcart_web_dir."/7_amazon_red/images");
$smarty->assign("SkinDir",$xcart_web_dir."/7_amazon_red");

So if the template requires and edit to home.tpl and you have customized your home.tpl you will need to implement your home.tpl changes into the template home.tpl correct?

[Zaja]

Yes, correct.

You hava a PM. I sent you the copy of the automated email I got from 7dana.com which includes all my specs.

Greets all,

Call me cheap if you want too, but I have to toss in my 2 cents. I sell and manage many websites and I can tell you this.

I would buy 7Dana's templates all day long if they were sold without his copyright info for the base price like the 7Dana template which is $119.00 but if you want it with the removed copyright it jumps to $199.00 and prices me right out of the game and instantly kills any opportunity for me to cost effectively add these to my re-sold present and future sites.

I would include his templates as "standard" in every site I sold from here on out I like them so much. But at $199.00 just for the skin for my sites unfortunately is a show stopper.

You should try a pricing experiment. get rid of the price hike copyright thing and watch your sales figures SOAR!

And please let me know when you do, because you will have a steady flow of orders coming from me for sure.

Keep prices where they are at and I am forced to go with X-Cart templates.

I know some of you will flame me for being "cheap" but let's face it everyone's looking for low prices (my customers in particular, globally) and I must always have an eye on my bottom line.

But they are excellent looking templates for sure!

Nice work.

P.S. Do you offer a re-seller program? Perhaps you could give us re-sellers a price break with the copy right issue and only charge straight retail customers the additional copyright costs.

Contact me if you would be interested in working with me this way.

Kind regards,
Ern

I agree, i would like to purchase one of these skins for some clients but since im not a big developer the price w/o copyright is just a little too high. I think the base price is about right and something they could afford

[bluecat]

Highly recommended here as well.

[Zaja]

Yes....there's a point in what you are saying about copyright removal policy.
