1. Whereas most carts you purchase can cost from a few hundred to over a thousand dollars, there is absolutely NO up front cost to use our cart. Unfortunately, many people find that a cart they purchased does not meet their needs, or cannot be used after purchasing it - and they may not be able to get a refund; or they find that they are "locked in", and have to pay additional costs for customization.
2. Once you buy a cart, you will need someone to set it up, and to make changes to it. Someone that knows HTML as well as the language that the particular cart is written in.
3. Some carts are compiled, which means they cannot be changed or customized at all. Authors of many carts in the past have simply disappeared making it impossible to fix bugs found later.
4. Things can change. Regulations change, country names change, shipping rates change, exchange rates change, your processor may change, and what a top of the line shopping cart should do changes. Our cart will keep up with all these changes, always staying completely up to date, with no hassle or cost to you, our customer.
5. There is no free support period where after a certain time you no longer get any support. We support our cart for you, and assist you no matter how long you have had the cart.
6. When taking customer data many people demand a secure connection. It is unlikely that your server will be able to provide a secure connection. King Cart establishes a secure connection for the forms that your customers fill in, as well as any setup or changes you make through the manager, assuring you that none of your data gets compromised, and none of your customers discontinue their order due to security concerns.

Verify that the filename you listed in the manager for the cart is exactly the same as that which was uploaded. It IS case sensitive, and often a capital name is followed by a small .gif or .jpg. If so make sure it all matches.

If you are using a thumbnail, the name of the thumbnail and the large image must be identical, except that the thumbnail is prefixed with a "tn-". I.E. sky.jpg would have a thumbnail of tn-sky.jpg. Both must be uploaded.

Paths can be a problem if not understood. The default path for images is "http://king-cart.com/store/[store_id]/" (or simply left blank). If you use this path and wish to throw the image from our server you simply enter the filename of the image in the appropriate place. If you want to throw an image from your own server, then you can put the full url in the filename I.E. "http://myserver.com/path/image.jpg". If you want to throw all images from another server you can put the url for it in for the default path for images, then list each image simply as the filename with no url or path information on it.

If your buttons are not showing up, then most likely you have changed the url of images location to your server, but have not copied the buttons to your server. These buttons can be picked up at http:www.kingcart.com/images.

If you do this, it is recommended to turn on the "grabber" or "url hiding" or "cloaking" (depending on whose service you are using). Then your url will show, even though our cart is being used, until the point where our cart goes secure for confidential information to be added.

After creating your store, Email mdudley@king-cart.com and request that your store be converted to another currency. We will convert it for you. Once converted, your store will default to your native currency, and prices will be quoted in your native currency. The currency conversion will work as always, but the conversion will be applied to your native currency instead of US dollars. In fact US Dollars can be selected as the secondary currency by your customers now.
