I've been fighting an install of version 5 with my webhost.
I dumped the whole thing in the cgi-bin, and got the permissions and ownerships to allow the thing to work--mostly.
But the graphics and CSS stuff doesn't not work. My webhost does not allow the delivery of images and the like out of the cgi-bin.
But if I put the store5 folder in my regular html directory, the cgi stuff does not execute.
I gave up for a couple days and searched for other solutions. No great luck, so I'm back to give it another go.
How did divide up the files to work properly?
If I get a Pro membership, are there better instructions there?
And what are the advantages of 5.1 over 5.0?
Thanks.
=============
After nearly a week of delving into e-commerce, I've circled back to try AgoraCart again.
In the past, I've set up two OSC sites, and tried ZenCart site.
Unless I do it day in and day out, I forget how to use the dang things. So I looked for something better.
So I tried AgoraCart. I ran into the 'challenges' above and abandoned it after a day to try CubeCart.
Got it to install easily, but got annoyed on entering products--one by one. I wanted something that would suck in a CSV file to populate the store. There was an add-on rumored in the forum, but not available. I really don't want to add in 80+ items by hand.
So I did some more searching and found LiteCommerce. It looked promising with it's CVS import, but after playing with the demo, found some of the features I took for granted in other systems had to be bought separately.
So now I'm ready for another go at AgoraCart.
