Default Re: New X-Cart product line and new X-Cart v4.5.3 released

I have a question that I see has been brought up but I would like clarification.

If I currently have a 4.4.2 Pro license and am planning to completely rebuild our store. If I choose to rebuild of the new 4.5.3 platinum version am I going to have to pay any other license or software fees?

Meaning can I simply download the Platinum package and start building without additional costs?

Thanks for the help as we would love to get started on the rebuild once we get clarification.

Much appreciated.
JP

Hi, Xcarters! Very glad to read your feedbacks. Here are some comments about new packages.

All the owners of PRO version can continue work with this edition, we will provide with free updates at least one year for this package. We will not sell new licenses, but continue release new versions.

2) here is the upgrade license policy: www.x-cart.com/license-upgrades.html

3) We moved feature comparision and configurator into the Platinum edition. However, all the customers with existed licenses will be provided with additional not for resale license for these modules to use they on xcart gold 4.5.3 and higher versions (Couple of NFR licenses for each xcart gold/pro existed license)

I appreciate you helping clarify but I am just a bit confused still.

I understand our pro license is still good, but lets say we fully want to start over with a Platinum cart on a fresh install, am I going to have to pay $1795 for platinum license or will the pro license become a platinum license with out additional charges?

Basically I want to start with a fresh platinum today. Do I have to pay more money if I go and download the platinum version today?

Thanks for helping me understand,
Joel

Huston we have a problem. Go to http://demo.x-cart.com/demo_goldplus/admin/modules.php

Click on Configure for the following modules:

- New Arrivals
- On Sale

The new window content is General Settings which is not correct. Normally it should be the one for module configuration.

Where can we find these NFR licenses? I would like to continue using Product Configurator with my X-Cart Gold.

Huston we have another problem. I downloaded the trial for X-Cart Gold Plus. When I start installation it gives me a warning:

Warning: require_once(./top.inc.php) [<a href='function.require-once'>function.require-once</a>]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in D:\WWW\xcart-plus\preauth.php on line 57

Looking inside xcart-plus folder top.inc.php file is missing. smarty.php is the last file arranging by name. Comparing with XC4.5.2 survey.php and top.inc.php files are missing.

Without any new updated package for the moment I cannot use the trial. Waiting for a new one.

Also you should include the following folders:

- var
- var/cache

They are missing and installer will provide the following errors:

Checking whether directory "var" is writable ... [FAILED]
Checking whether directory "var\cache" is writable ... - [FAILED]

Another two issues in plus version.

1) Go in Admin -> Tools -> Maintenance.

Click on "Optimize Tables" - see how there is no header and style sheet for the text. Just dots and a text (no that gray band with XC icon on it upper left).

Click on "Force Cache Generation" - see how this one has the header and style sheet for the text

2) Go to Admin -> Module -> Social Login - activate it and check the settings. As you may see option "Enabled Social Sharing button on Product page" is not checked. But visiting product page you will [Share] button Facebook and Twitter icons and the text "and more". This should not be visible if the check box is not selected, but it is. If you click on Share button, Twitter and Facebook icons, and more, because all are link, nothing happening.

Seems like they are in Pltinum only now - see http://www.x-cart.com/shopping-cart-demo.html# - click on "configure demo store"
