With any multi-store version, the main store - call it #1, should be ticked by default as offering a new product. Much easier to untick a few than spend time wondering why, with just one store, your product does not show.
Many are going to use this as a stand-alone, single store. They should not have to go through the process of ticking the only box every time they add an item.
Bug? Maybe not.
Feature? Wouldn't call it that, either.
Common Sense? Yeah, that's how I'd classify it. But there is not a thread for that.

if you are adding a lot of products at once then that is what you have to do. the data has to get in there some how.

Disdain for your users is not very helpful.
You ask for suggestions and problems, this is something that could be easily fixed and save a lot of new users time wondering why with one store, after entering their items they do not show in the storefront.
Not everyone considering or choosing your script is a coder. Many are just average people trying to have a shop on the internet. Stuff that seems so simple to you can be overwhelming to users.
Use your own product as a newbie, where this is their first adventure online. That's your real base, not the dozen or so coders who are so helpful to others. Nothing against them, but it's the "little folks" who are the majority, or would be if there were a stable version.

I fight with them on a regular basis about stuff that they say the users should understand, I know from my visits to customers that they don't.
Sometimes changing a line of text makes everything a lot clearer.
In this case a default shop set by a preset tickbox would.
So I have to agree with peteVA, it should be for most (if not all) users made easy.
In the case of having one shop the product should always, default, be added to that shop, if there are more shops then the default (first) shop shoul always be ticked and the user can decide if the product should be visable in other shops.
We live in a world where everyting gets done "automaticly", so why not this

So, should we wait for 1.4.4? or Install the 1.4.3? I can wait, Its not a problem. But, If 1.4.4 is gonna come out, I can shift from 1.3.4Daniel wrote:ok i haver done all fixes execpt for the mail one and invoice one because i'm not sure they are bugs.
some features i think need doing are the invoices, custom invoice numbers and adding a tax no. field that can be swithed on or off in the admin.

it also would be nice if you can add price with tax to each product in invoces I think it is easy to implement and it is required in some countries in EU (Slovakia, Czech... )
and also swich to show / hide rewievs it is mentioned here http://code.google.com/p/opencart/issues/detail?id=159

Why not take advantage of that what you have already build in?Daniel wrote:people have to tick which categories they want the products displayed on so it should not be a big problem to tick which sites they want to see them on aswell.
I mean the help text that are add in some places but could be used anywhere.
After this discussion about these tickboxes I've adjusted the Dutch language files to make sure the Dutch user will not end up in spending time searching for something abvious.
Here is a screenshot of the default English product page:
Here is a screenshot of the Dutch product page:
You see the difference?
I have done that for the product.php, categorie.php, setting.php and store.php.
I could, if you would let me, buld those files for you.
The engine is in place, why not use it?

But in my second store, the SEO URL's will return the following:
If I turn off the SEO URL option in store settings, all links on both stores work perfectly and there is no Server Error Message. (But i really want to have SEO URL's in both stores. ;-)Internal Server Error
The server encountered an unrecoverable error.
This is usually caused by a faulty, or improperly installed CGI script or .htaccess file.
Here's my .htaccess file in the opencart subdirectory:
Can't understand why SEO URL's would perfectly in the first cart and not in the second.# 1.To use URL Alias you need to be running apache with mod_rewrite enabled.
# 2. In your opencart directory rename htaccess.txt to .htaccess.
