Ok Guys,
Finally after many months a new version is nearly ready.
Please remember this is an alpha release and should not be used on a live site. Its also recommended to use php 7 or above.
Download
https://github.com/opencart/opencart/ar ... 0.0_a1.zip
Added
Bootstrap 4
Font Awesome 5
Jquery 3.3.1
Ability to have search engine index pages in multiple languages.
Added ckeditor back
Template code can now be edited before it processed using lamba functions.
All URL's generated in the catalog controller files now have language= appended to them.
SEO URL's can now replace any normal URL query and not just pre defind ones link product, category, manufacturer pages.
Added a CRON job system so no need for extension developers having to manually add this via the cpanel's.
Fixed
https://github.com/opencart/opencart/co ... a5b719d+34
Issues can be reported here:
https://github.com/opencart/opencart/issues
There are still many bugs to be fixed. If you find an issue please make a sure its not already been reported.
I also plan to add a GDRP and cookie policy system for EU users while its still in Alpha.
I plan for 1 week of alpha release while i fix bugs then 1 month of beta so extension developers have time to update their extensions.
After this release is finished i have a big list of new features i will be adding.
Sounds pretty exciting with the improved SEO features! Will be trying it out soon.
Just downloaded 3100 from link given above but wont install, just get this error message...
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected 'class' (T_CLASS) in C:\xampp\htdocs\Oc3.1.0.0_a1\system\library\template\twig.php on line 42
Any ideas fellas ?

PHP 7 is required to install the alpha version. You'd normally get this error message if using PHP lower than 7.

A shame that decision and not really useful!reverted to 5.6+ requirement and not php 7+.

As the first post indicates, PHP v7x is required to use the alpha release. However, the addressed issue about v5.6 requirements has already been posted on GitHub which should be fixed by the next indicated period on the first post.

I see. Then, there the term must of been misinterpreted since, on GitHub, provides the facts on the enforced requirements regarding the TWIG cache as it has also been addressed by the same poster. Followed are the facts: https://github.com/opencart/opencart/issues/6759 . However, it is considerable to say that misleading information was posted on the first post of this topic on that end. In addition, the changes were already made to the core from GitHub. As for the big difference result, yes, it does make a big difference indeed.OSWorX wrote: ↑Fri Jul 27, 2018 9:44 pmNO, only recommended, not required:straightlight wrote: ↑Fri Jul 27, 2018 7:04 pmAs the first post indicates, PHP v7x is required to use the alpha release.

You have to develop a solid version and improve it more and more. Just getting a release is not going to work out why it gets full of bung.
I use version 3.0.2 the latest version and had to fix a lot of bung. Not to mention that the good modules are all paid ..

A solid release would still be based on new service requests and change management before it gets released by the Release and Deployment Management team, since GitHub Opencart is still in transition phase before releasing a stable release.tubacanas wrote: ↑Fri Aug 03, 2018 11:43 amYou have to develop a solid version and improve it more and more.

How different is 3.0.2.0 from the new pending 3.1.0.0 release? (performance, functionality etc...)
Is it worth upgrading or not?
Is it worth upgrading or not?
A stable (or at least, once more, the so called) release would need to be released in order to provide a proper response to that question.

So pretend it’s stable....

Being pretentious before an official release is irrelevant, since the final release has not yet been released. Better to ask this question once the release will be stable period.So pretend it’s stable....

For those asking is it worth upgrading, then answer is definitely NO.
It is an ALPHA release and should only be used by developers and testers to find and report bugs.
Likewise when the BETA is released.
