Not via default import script, sorry. I will collect more info about what else our customers want to import and we will extend our import facility in the future.

In my X-Cart Business 5.0.11 "Product reviews" module settings, there is only 2 options, All Users, or Registered users, no third who purchased product.

Good option. Will add it to our TODO list.

But it states that it is already included according to your website.

One other thing, I am not sure I would call it a bug, but a necessary improvement/bug.

The spacing on the homepage is blank for the breadcrumbs, I think there should be no <div id"breadcrumbs></div> on the homepage, because it is empty and taking the space at the top of the page.

There are major display bugs in the product image, on the product page. And major improvements required.

If you change the default size of the product image to a bigger size, the page simply breaks.

Default product image is a small 300px which is barely bigger than a thumbnail. Worse, the store will generate a poorer quality product image if you upload a larger size, without any apparant option for it not to do that to the main product image. Only detailed image is not reduced in quality. Therefore your product image looks second rate, when you might want a high-quality image. The css could easily have a max-height setting, like in XC4

Its set at 300px 300px by default as the max size. However the option is useless because in order to make it bigger, the page will all fail as the elements appear hardcoded with widths and heights relating to 300px 300px. So I will need to change the css to overwrite each css class including .product-photo and .product-details-info otherwise the image will overlap the detailed images, the arrow navigation and other product content.

The re-size product image only appears to work when there are detailed images. I have cleared the cache on the store, and despite changing the default width and height to 500px, the store is hardcoded with 330px 330px, even though the image size on both product 1 and product 2 is 500px width and height original size. But only the product with detailed images shows the 500px product image, but even with the detailed images product page, there is a conflict as the hardcoded fixed width first appears and then the size setting you choose suddenly appears and jumps over the previous image/ re-sizes.

This needs to be fixed. Product image sells to the customer and although the detailed images are good, the setting for changing the size of the image does not work and there is no option to avoid downgrading the image quality. Also you have not kept the original-filename.jpg, so all of the google image seo will be lost. Instead when resizing the image, you rename my seo image which had been done for all the products. Now it is simply know as productid.jpg, which is almost impossible for google to index

This is the most important page in the whole cart as it is selling the product to the customer, everything follows around this.

Bug: there is no way to delete a category image. The only option is to replace it. On the product page, it is possible to delete the product image, but not for categories? why is that?

[RichieRich]

Bug: rating product on add-to-cart pop-up. When you hover to rate a product, it shows only half of the dialog box info which is cut off.

Suggestion:

In a lot of the product settings, you can choose whether to display in the main area or the sidebar. How about a setting to display the categories in the sidebar, or in the main-menu links at the top.

Add option to be able to only review product if the product is considered in-stock on the release date. How can customer review before it has arrived?
