Information to users

Please carefully review this information before starting to use our products. We have endeavored to provide maximum compatibility and user convenience, but some aspects may require your attention and configuration. Do not hesitate to contact us with any questions or if you need assistance.

  • The modification has been tested on the standard Opencart template but may require adaptations for other templates.
  • Upon installation, additional fields are created in the database. We recommend making a backup of the data before installation to allow for data restoration if needed.
  • Please note that when mentioning a TEMPLATE, it refers to individual template files in your theme, not the entire theme. You cannot set different themes for each element using this extension.
  • If you have installed a third-party theme on Opencart 3.x with extension files in «.tpl
    the modification will NOT work.
  • The created files must have the file extension «.twig.

Try first installing «Localcopy OCMOD», and then attempt to install our modification again. This sequence may resolve potential conflicts and help you successfully implement our changes on your website.
