They seem to have deleted it because they have deleted it previously. It's pretty silly really

Also, you can't edit it (even if you're a logged in user)

Oh, so they won't let you edit the page because you're the owner? It makes sense to a point, but deleting the page is just ridiculous really. I'm guessing even if I created the page it would be seen as being affiliated since I'm a mod on here. What a pain in the arse

Hi!

I'm looking for a malaysian translation extension, and this is the only place I can seem to find a reference for it. Is there indeed a malaysian translation available? I apologize for posting in the wrong thread! I've searched everywhere I can! Thanks.

Thanks for correcting my copy-paste mistakes and sorry to Daniel.

Is OpenCart logo (used in header) also GNU? Or have I use some logo from thread We need OpenCart Banners?

Why is there an osCommerce logo on that page? It makes it appear as if OC is based on osC.

Also, this sentence doesn't make any sense the way it's written:
The development is based on a MVC framework, but which is designed exclusively for the shop system.
Something like this would sound better:
The code is based on a custom MVC-L framework, which includes a language layer.
Also, I think the order of the version history should be reversed with the newest version at the top of the list.

Because the page was inspired by OpenCart and ZenCart pages and I was not able to upload logo into wikipedia because of definition of license. So I remove osCommerce logo until OpenCart will not be available.

Thanks, I changed it.

I also think it, but I saw it on ZenCart page.

I also think I can use this logo on wiki, but I was not able to define license, and also author is needed.
