Estelle’s Mod Store

I will be uncontactable from Saturday 23 May to Tuesday 26 May, inclusive. I will not have any internet access, my partner and I are finally getting away from our home office and driving down to Washington for the Sasquatch music festival.I have made arrangements to ensure that any emails related to license keys will be answered by a colleague. Any other enquiries will need to wait until I return. It is recommended that you do not install any mods to live stores during these 4 days unless you are capable of reversing everything if any problems arise. If going ahead with installations be sure to make a full backup of your store, both files and database.We will complete any mod installations before the weekend, and then the next batch of mod installations will be completed on Wednesday 27 May.It has been a long time between news updates, and new mods haven’t been released for some time now, but things have been brewing and I will have lots more news soon!

Happy holidays from Estelle, Justin and Paula!

We would like to wish you all a very happy Christmas and a prosperous and rewarding 2009. We’d never have made it without you! Support will be available during the Christmas period, and we look forward to working with you in the new year.

Successful relocation to Vancouver

Many of you heard that I was moving from Australia to Canada, and have wished me luck. Thanks for all the kind words! Everything has gone well, Dan and I will soon be completely setup in Vancouver. There has been an unusual amount of snow - we’re hoping for our first white Christmas!

We have more mods in development and special offers planned. Stay tuned!

The following mods have been updated for compatibility with CubeCart 4.3.0.  Please contact us if you are upgrading to CubeCart 4.3.0 and we will provide you with the latest versions.

All other mods should work fine with CubeCart 4.3.0.

Major improvements have been added to Fully Flexible Contact Forms for CubeCart 3.  Contact us if you hold a license for this mod and you would like to get the latest version.

I will be unavailable from Friday 21 November until Monday 8 December as I am moving from Perth to Vancouver.  License key inquiries will be answered within 24 hours.  Our mod installation service will still be available and installations will be completed within 3 working days.  If installing mods yourself ensure you backup your store files.

I recommend that the following patch be installed to all CubeCart 4 stores.  It fixes a bug that would allow an order to contain more products than what the customer paid for.  Fix is posted here.
