Is there a way to go back to the old interface?

English Spreadshop
#1

Hi, I’ve been away for a few months and have found my shop is completely knackered. It’s a wordpress site build with individual product pages with the spreadshirt product embedded, also categories with the spreadshirt category embedded.

I spent quite a lot of time last year embedding products into their own pages in my wordpress site, setting them into categories etc each with their own real page in Wordpess. now since I’ve been upgraded to the new interface the whole this is screwed up - www.stolentshirts.com

I was embedding each product on a page, for example with the code:

266158
on a content page in Wordpress. Now each product page just shows "This product is not available"

Looking at the products in my shop (in the admin area) some of the T shirts have the designs on the back, all in the wrong colours.
Frankly I don’t know if it is worth bothering with this anymore and trying to fix it all. Is there an easy way to revert to the old system to at least make my shop work for now?

After that I’m going to be asking all the same questions as I did last year about integrating into Wordpress on the old system.
Thanks
Pete

I realise all of this information is probably in the forum but I’m not really motivated to search around for it at the moment.

There is no way to revert to the old system since we do not maintain the old system anymore. The last few partners are being migrated next week and then everyone is in the partner area. I understand that you’re used to another system and that it might take some time to get used to the new partner area but we’re absolutely convinced that this system is easier to work with.

You might need to adapt your product colors, but you can now easily save your settings with the use of templates: https://help.spreadshirt.com/hc/en-us/articles/360008958033-Faster-Product-Creation-with-Templates

Let me check with our developers when it comes to your Wordpress site :slight_smile:

Hi Pete,

It seems like you are not using our Wordpress plugin: https://www.spreadshop.com/blog/2019/07/10/spreadshop-tools-wordpress-plugin/ but have created your custom integration.

You saved the URL to every category and product in your page and now that the ids changed due to the migration you get the 404s. If they want to keep this custom implementation you need to update the category and product urls, there is no other way.

You need to adjust

window.location.hash = “!/you+aint+no+punk+you+punk-A116182646”;

and

startToken:’?q=T288571’

Hi, thanks for getting back, I’m not sure I follow, below is example code from one of the pages:

---------Start------

266158
-------End----------

So I see you said to adjust the window.location bit, but this looks the same as what I had. Do I swap that with startToken:’?q=T288571’
Thanks/
Pete

Sorry, not sure why the code won’t display in the post above, just links to the shop!
If I just need to replace the product urls and categories, where can I find the new URLs for the products?
Thanks

For sending code like
<script>
You need to use preformatted Text (Symbol </> )and put the stuff in there.

#9 
indent preformatted text by 4 spaces    <div id="myShop"><a href="https://shop.spreadshirt.co.uk/266158">266158</a></div>
indent preformatted text by 4 spaces <script>
    var spread_shop_config = {
        shopName: '266158',
        locale: 'en_GB',
        prefix: 'https://shop.spreadshirt.co.uk',
        baseId: 'myShop'
    };
</script>
indent preformatted text by 4 spaces   <script>

window.location.hash = “!/you+aint+no+punk+you+punk-A116182646”;

</script>

indent preformatted text by 4 spaces    <script type="text/javascript" src="https://shop.spreadshirt.co.uk/shopfiles/shopclient/shopclient.nocache.js"></script>

That’s the code I have one a product page, sorry about the messy post!

<div id="myShop"><a href="https://shop.spreadshirt.co.uk/266158">266158</a></div>
<script>
var spread_shop_config = {
shopName: '266158',
locale: 'en_GB',
prefix: 'https://shop.spreadshirt.co.uk',
baseId: 'myShop',
startToken: '?q=T288571'
};
</script>
<script>
window.location.hash = “!/you+aint+no+punk+you+punk-A116182646”;
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://shop.spreadshirt.co.uk/shopfiles/shopclient/shopclient.nocache.js"></script>

This is the code with the stuff Lena send and it looks like, :

I think an example makes it clear. Currently you have the following code to show caps:

<script> var spread_shop_config = { shopName: '266158', locale: 'en_GB', prefix: 'https://shop.spreadshirt.co.uk', baseId: 'myShop', startToken:'?q=T533119' }; </script>

T533119 is the old category ID which is not valid anymore. That’s why we default to “All products”. To fix this you have to find the new category ID. The easiest way is by using the navigation which you have hidden with CSS. The new category ID in this case is “P46”, so all you have to do is change the startToken from startToken:'?q=T533119' to startToken:'?q=P46'

Thanks Lena. Is there anywhere I can see product IDs so I’d know what to replace window.location.hash = “!/you+aint+no+punk+you+punk-A116182646”;
with for each product?
Also do I just replace the starttoken with whatever category it is from?

Thanks

#13

OK so I can find the url needed for each product so that’s that one sorted (well after I’ve gone through and redone every page).
I’ve set a couple of Topics up so I can recreate the category pages but it’s not obvious where I can see any ID or parameter I can use toshow that particular Topic and group of products on my category page.

#14

You can just have a look at the navigation to find the specific URLs

#15

Sorry, that just takes me to https://stolentshirts.com/t-shirts/#!/!%2Fcollections which shows my page but not the spreadshirt navigation. Sorry if I’m being a bit slow with this!

Also I had some other designs in my shop from the marketplace (not mine), am I no longer able to do this?
Thanks
Pete

If you remove temporarily everything that you put in your custom CSS under Shop Settings > Advanced > Edit Shop CSS then you’ll also see the navigation and all the links that you need.

Indeed, using community designs to create products is no longer possible in the partner area and therefore those products weren’t migrated.

#17

OK thanks, I’ve used topics to do the categories and got the links sorted so getting there now!
Are you looking to add the ability to use community designs again?

#18

No, this functionality will not come back.
