We installed journal 3 on our ishop6.com website but it does not stop updating itself

Hi, you store isn’t running Journal 3, that’s an older version of Journal 2 and it’s working fine in our testing.

For more info please file a ticket on our support page and consult with our developers.

Best Regards.

hi, I am trying to download the new update from filezilla and duck ftp but not all files. how many times i tried same… Transfers echoues 10 error.. please help

Hi, that’s not something theme related, check your ftp client, server, internet connection, there could be a lot of reasons but none of them are theme related. If you want, file a ticket on our support page and we’ll help you update Journal to the latest version.

Best Regards.

how to change my purchase key…please help me …i want to change my journal opencart theme Purchase key.

Hi, that is not changeable, we’re not sure how you mean, are you just planning to move the theme to a different domain?

Best Regards.

Some great features in the new update! Thank you.

I uploaded the new update to a development site yesterday. Today I’m getting a 500 server error with the following being generated in my error logs every few mins (despite no activity on the site)...

PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 2097152 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 32768 bytes) in …/system/library/journal3/vendor-composer/guzzlehttp/psr7/src/functions.php on line 735

I tried increasing memory limits. It didn’t help.

Any ideas?

Hi, consider disabling Image Compress in Journal > System > Settings > Performance, maybe php memory_limit is not enough to handle cwebp compression.

Best Regards.

Hi, is there a way to show product review in popup?

In that case it isn’t working, Auto Layout means strictly on a product page itself (or corresponding quickview).

Best Regards.

Yeah, though so. Thanks. Btw is there a setting somewhere to change the umber of reviews shown at a time. it’s set to 5 by default.

That is not editable unfortunately, it’s a default Opencart setting, might need core code changes, please refer to the official forum.

Best Regards.

:-O – That’s a massive update, folks. Well done and Thank You!

Thanks for the feedback, we appreciate it!

Best Regards.

Hi, is it possible to edit ‘Product Specification (Auto Layout)’? the current view is showing a table of specification.. i would need to show just one particular specification here without the table.

Hi, that isn’t possible as it’s “automatic”, meaning it pulls whatever attributes you have assigned to that product in Opencart.

Best Regards.

Hi, i have 2 errors for each page at the site when upgrading to theme version 3.1.0, but when refreshed there are no errors, I have to refresh every link at the site…

1. Warning: escapeshellarg() has been disabled for security reasons in …/public_html/system/library/journal3/vendor-composer/rosell-dk/webp-convert/src/Convert/Converters/Cwebp.php on line…

2. Warning: escapeshellarg() has been disabled for security reasons in …/public_html/system/library/journal3/vendor-composer/rosell-dk/webp-convert/src/Convert/Converters/ImageMagick.php on line…

OpenCart 3.0.3.2

Thank you

Hi, please consult with your hosting provider and ask them to enable escapeshellarg function in php, otherwise disable webp support from Journal > System > Settings > Performance in order to not see the error anymore. We’ll investigate this further, you can send us a private message for more details.

Best Regards.

Hi, i contacted admin server to solve the problem, they said i needed enable CageFS to enable the escapeshellarg function, but i am disabling CageFS to use OptiPNG and jpegoptim, if enable CageFS then OptiPNG and jpegoptim will not work.

I have refreshed all the links on the site by manually and no more errors, but I don’t know this error will again???

Thank you!!!

Hi, as we’ve explained above, this is not something theme related, that’s a hosting related compatibility issue, some hostings have restrictions, either way, consider disabling Image Compress in Journal > System > Settings > Performance if you still have issues.

Best Regards.

Is it possible to show “out of stock” label on products with 0 quantity on category page and search page? Right now I can only see this functional on the product page. Thanks

Hi, that may be available as a stat, look in Journal > Skins > Edit > Product Listing > General > Product Stat 1 / 2.

Best Regards.

Doesn’t work with the Journal checkout / New Opencart PayPal, just opens a popup with a blank line.

Hi, we need more info than that, please file a ticket on our support page with access to your setup or send us a private message via the contact form on our profile page.

Best Regards.

I noticed the main menu now has a lag when you hover over it, it will take about 2 seconds for the sub menu to appear, is this a bug or a new feature, if so how do I get instant reaction?

Another issue

Product option extras, when turning push button off, and having select checkbox, it shows a thumbnail image, however there is no spacing with these image on the below, how do I add spacing?

Hi, we’re not familiar with any new delay, there has always been a slight hover intent delay but nothing new, check out our demos.

Not sure how you mean about the options, maybe show some screenshots.

Best Regards.

Does active click state on mobile has been added on new version 3.1.0?

Hi, yes there should be a slight visual feedback on that, please file a ticket on our support page and consult with our developers if you can’t see it.

Best Regards.

I have checking it and active style tab is dissapear on mobile menu, only hover exist, but hovering cannot be used. Please don’t delete active style and make it working therefore user know which menu has selected.

The active tab was never meant for that sort of behaviour, that is only for the menus in the accordion module, when it is added on the category layout and the category page you’re on would be highlighted in the side menu.

As for the tap feedback on a link, there should be something in the works, please file a ticket on our support page and consult with our developers about this.

Best Regards.

The update killed my cart page.

This page isn’t workingwww.mydomain.co.uk is currently unable to handle this request. HTTP ERROR 500

Ignore these message, I stupidly installed the new OPencart before….. which caused no end of trouble, instead of deleting the files, I just overwrite them with the backup, leaving some “new files” from the new opencart behind, which were playing havok with the cart.

Although I do think, your your update shows error for the new PHP, where as it didn’t on the old.

Hi, Opencart does not support PHP 7.4, that’s why we’ve added that message, it’s strongly recommended to not use PHP 7.4 because it will break Opencart.

Best Regards.

Is it possible to change the size of product extras labels, based on the image size, not on the page size? Since there are different size images on the same page. Thanks

Hi, I believe there are product page overrides in the label module, so you can apply a different style perhaps.

Best Regards.

Hi All

There are issue with “Weight Based Shipping” Module With One Page Checkout – Please See Screenshots… I also try to change PHP Versions, Reinstall, Try on Default opencart theme and so on

https://prnt.sc/t94qx8 And https://prnt.sc/t94qz4

Hi, we are not aware of such issue, please make sure everything works fine when using the default Opencart theme first or with the default Opencart checkout and you can send us a private message if you think this is a theme related issue. If indeed this may be a theme related issue we’ll provide a fix for it. You can also send us a private message via the contact form on our profile page.

Best Regards.

Hi DigitalAtelier i want to apologize, theme works 100%... I find another issues and change hosting… Now everything works 100% and theme one page checkout also works good

Thank you again

Thank you for your clarification!

Best Regards.

And can you find out what will go into this huge update? about?

We have other things planned, but not everything is finished, there will be more updates, more frequent than the last one.

Best Regards.

Ahh then success to you, we expect from you a lot of updates

Thank you, we are committed to Journal all the way!

Guys what are you working on at the moment, as I can see no updates since January? Any new skins for Journal3 soon?

We are working on a huge update, as we’ve mentioned already, should come any day now. An of course others after.

Best Regards.

For the contact form, in case if a required field is leave empty, the border became red but no error message is displayed. Is this a bug? In journal 2 it works properly. Please see screenshots: journal 2: http://prntscr.com/t8qkzs journal 3: http://prntscr.com/t8qlbr

Hi, the custom Journal form module doesn’t have those. You can turn this custom module off and use the default Opencart contact form instead. If you need assistance with this please file a ticket on our support page and consult with our developers.

Best Regards.

Hi. Where can I set the width for “agree popup”?

Hi, there may be some options for the default popup in Journal > Skins > Edit > Default Popup.

Best Regards.

Unfortunately, there is no option for width settings.

In that case it is not configurable with available options, unfortunately.

I found several comments that request the cart page to be more mobile friendly and every time the answer was that is not possible without side scrolling. However, this was possible in Journal 2. I don’t understand why is not possible a similar approach in Journal 3. Please see below the screenshots: journal 2: http://prntscr.com/t8orn5 journal 3: http://prntscr.com/t8os28

Best regards

Hi, it wasn’t possible there either, what you see there are columns hidden so that the overall table is not wide and just fits on that small screen.

You can hide columns with custom code, or limit the product name width and force it to multiple lines, but this is just a subjective approach.

The underlying mechanism is the same. And it’s actually Opencart that uses tables on the cart page, we’re not modifying this underlying code structure, works the same on their official demo too.

Best Regards.

Hi, thank you for the answer. The columns are hidden on mobile only in order to fits on the screen. The screenshots was taken from your journal 2 demo. Is it possible to provide same approach in one of your demo for Journal 3? Best regards

Sure you can hide columns with custom code. We’re not doing that in the demos though, but if you need assistance with that you’d have to file a ticket on our support page.

Best Regards.
