Hi Tommy,

No, the fashion theme for 2.6 won't run with fluent validator 3.4.0.0 just like the nopCommerce 2.6 won't run with it without rebuilding the whole sources with the new version. If we upgrade version 2.6 to work with Fluent Validator 3.4 then all our clients that have nopCommerce 2.6 installed won't be able to run the Fashion theme on it.
You should use version 2.65 of nopCommerce and version 2.65 of the Fashion theme. The upgrade is quite easy. You need to run the upgrade script for nopCommerce 2.65, then run the new nopCommerce 2.65 and the new version of the Fashion theme and the plugins for 2.65.

Best Regards,

Please use the homepage_top widget zone and this way the JCarousel will be shown only on the Home page. The content_before is a widget zone defined in the master layout, so it is available on every page on your store.
You can define you own custom zone and place it whatever you want on the Home page.
If you want to show it outside the content of the Home page you can define your own section and show it in the _root.cshtml file if it is defined.
@if (IsSectionDefined("YourSectionForJCarousel"))
{
    @RenderSection("YourSectionForJCarousel")
}

Then define the section in your home page Index.cshtml file:

@section YourSectionForJCarousel
{
    @Html.Action("WidgetsByZone", "Widget", new { widgetZone = "home_page_top_jcarousel" })
}

You can see the documentation of the Electronic theme for the Main slider as this is how we place it on the top.

Hope this helps!

Hi joster,

There is no need to run any upgrade scripts on a clean install.
If you rebuild your solution or modify your Global.asax file will fix this as this will make MVC to find the new controllers of the plugins (Global.asax is modified internally when a new plugin is installed but it doesn't always work) and find the Settings pages in the administration respectfully. You mention that the Save doesn't work. Can you specify which Save is not working i.e for which plugin?

We have't tried nopCommerce with SQL Azure. Is there a separate branch of nopCommerce or it is the regular branch but it can also work on Azure.

The cart pages should work as the theme is upgrade for nopCommerce 2.65.
What is the error you receive?

Update:We just noticed that the Add to Cart button on a category page is not working right after a clean installation but once we go to a product page it is working fine. That is quite strange and we will investigate it. Please let us know if you have any problems with the Ajax Cart. Maybe Ctrl + F5 is required to update the browser cache.

Hi,

Thank you for pointing this out. We will double check why the code has been commented (probably by mistake).

Hi Paulo,

Thank you for reporting this. It has been fixed now. You need to download the package again and update this file:
Themes\Electronics\Content\style.css

Alternatively you can simply remove
overflow:hidden
from this css class
.product-pager-and-sorter-and-view-options-7Spikes .product-pager-and-size
on line 3140.

Hi Jon,

We are aware of this issue with the FluentValidator.dll and .NET 4.5.
So we will release a new version for all our plugins for nopCommerce 2.65, which is to be released tomorrow or Friday.
We are not going to rebuild our plugins for nopCommerce 2.6 with the new FluentValidator version because all our clients that use nopCommerce 2.6 will not be able to run them as nopCommerce 2.6 uses the old version of FluentValidator.
Also not all clients will want to upgrade to 2.65 as not all of them use shared hosting and are not going to move to .NET 4.5.

So once the nopCommerce 2.65 is released you can download our plugins for nopCommerce 2.65.
We hope this works for you!

Hi moiraeman,

Thank you for the proposal!

Yes, we can. Let's first see how many people will vote for it as it is an indication for us that it is going to be a really useful feature.

All the best,
Nop-Templates Team

Hi moiraeman,

It is more like a feature request as the Smart SEO doesn't allow you to specify SEO tags for the Home page. Honestly this functionality should be in nopCommerce out of the box as it is some basic functionality just like the meta data for the Blog etc.
If nopCommerce doesn't plan to release this soon we can add it in the Smart SEO plugin.
You can propose it in our UserVoice portal and let the others vote for it too.
You ca get the free trial and play with the plugin and any feedback for improving it is always welcome and much appreciated.

Best Regards

Hi sergio,

Thank you for reporting this. We sent you an email that the problem is fixed now. You need to download the latest package and update the Fashion theme plugin.

Please let us know if you have any other problems with the theme and we will be glad to help.

Best Regards
