Our primary purpose was to assist them in setting up and configuring their Xcart and doing modest changes to the default skin to give it a ‘western’ flair. Our setup included getting their USPS account configured and tested, establishing all the necessary default information regarding their company, location and contact info, and configuring their payment processing methods.

We also provided several hours of phone tutorial support in order to walk through the process of adding products, uploading images, and associating their product options.

Their cart was a basic install utilizing one of the skins that ships with the newest 4.3 version.

The client was happy with the overall design but needed to have the following steps taken to get their store ready for business:

  • modify their logo to fit within Xcart parameters
  • Create multiple versions of the logo for invoice, checkout and main page purposes
  • modify product display to eliminate sku display
  • modify category product display to include links to View Cart and Checkout so customer would not need to scroll up constantly to reach main menu.
  • configure and activate shipping via USPS
  • configure PayPal payment method

Our installation services assure you that your cart will be installed and functioning properly in order for you to begin inserting products.

Installation Process

The installation process consists of the following:

  1. Download and upack the latest X-Cart release
  2. FTP all files to your hosting account
  3. Set all required permissions for the installation
  4. Establish your MySQL database and user credentials
  5. Run the X-Cart installation script
  6. Select the skin you wish to set as your initial default
  7. Complete the installation and record your re-install code
  8. Configure your company information (phone, email and address)

Our fees for general installation are $75 which includes the steps above. We also offer the following optional installation and setup services:

  • Shipping module configuration – UPS/USPS/FedEx – $50 (requires you have an existing online account)
  • Payment processor configuration – $50 (only valid for processing providers already integrated with X-Cart)

Advanced X-Cart Services

We also offer the following advanced services designed to get your store up and running quickly. Each of these services is offered as a custom project and bids are subject to individual requests and circumstances.

  • Theme modification / Custom themes
  • Logo design
  • Product insertion/import
  • Product image creation
  • Shipping zones
  • Custom category images
  • Product options (modifiers and variants)
  • Manufacturer import

X-Cart Product Import

If you have several hundred or more products the X-Cart product import feature will save valuable time in getting your products inserted. However, the import feature requires varying degrees of preparation including:

  • Creating a spreadsheet with complete product information including weights, image references, product numbers, etc.
  • Having product detail and thumbnail images available and referenced in the spreadsheet for each product
  • Having your categories specified for each product

X-Cart’s import feature validates each image and category during the import process. The import file must be 100% accurate or the import process will fail each time it can not find the category or image(s) specified. The most common causes for failure are the misspelling of image names (they do not match the name of the actual image, have upper or lowercase letters missing, etc.) and missing categories.
