OpenCart v1.5.0 RC1

Julio Cesar C G wrote:The weight of the product in your shopping cart is multiplied by quantity. This is
right? The dimensions are not multiplied by quantity.

4x product (10kg), $product['weight'] in the cart = 40Kg

but

4x product (H=10cm), $product['height'] in the cart = 10cm

the quantity and 1.4.9.x was not.

1.5.0: 4x product (10kg), $product['weight'] in the cart = 40Kg

1.4.9.x: 4x product (10kg), $product['weight'] in the cart = 10Kg

$products = $this->cart->getProducts();

foreach ($products as $product) {
echo $product['weight']; // print 40kg in 1.5 and 10kg in 1.4.9.x
}

Example:

A cart with 4 quantities of a product 10kg (weight unit)

Code: Select all

$products = $this->cart->getProducts();

foreach ($products as $product) {
echo $product['weight']; // print 40kg in 1.5 and 10kg in 1.4.9.x
}

Good that you let yourself be convinced.

I thought that one of the innovations of the new OC 1..5.0 version will be MEGA MENU dropdown list that is gray in appearance, but turns black when it is activated with the mouse. It really looked great in Demo release! What happened to the dropdown list ? Unfortunately it's NOT present, it's a big disappointment.
IMO, as Categories are presented right now, it definitely not worthy the new OC 1.5

Another cool feature in the Demo release was the ADD TO CART buttons that turn pink when activated with the mouse. As it looks today, by changing the color scheme, you lose half the effect.
Graphic is in the details......details that are discovered and users will notice when visiting the shop.

op_user wrote:Yes the alpha theme you attached is soooo nice. The beta/RC theme is nice too but in my opinion the header buttons remind me of 1.4.x. and it is a bit cluttered. Like the previous user said, serious shop owners will customize the template to their liking either way.

What I mainly like about the alpha theme is that it has letter clutter in the sense that it is easier to look at. You read from top to bottom. The new header design (the "mega menu") is very nice as well. The large banner of the laptop/free shipping sign is intelligently placed to grab the user's attention.
