About Summary page

X-Cart provides a page with a summary of information about the store - the so-called Summary page. You can use this page to learn about the current state of your store and to find out whether there are any inconsistencies in the store configuration. Depending on your access level, you may be able to view the following information:

  • The store's Auth code;
  • License info;
  • General info;
  • Payment methods info;
  • Environment info.
Note: All the above sections are available to X-Cart GOLD/GOLD PLUS users with administrator/provider privileges and X-Cart PLATINUM/PRO administrators. X-Cart PLATINUM/PRO providers can view only some of the General info.

If you are an X-Cart GOLD or GOLD PLUS administrator/provider or an X-Cart PLATINUM or PRO administrator:

  • In X-Cart versions 4.4.0 and later, the Summary page can be found at Tools menu -> Summary.
  • In earlier X-Cart versions, the Summary page can be found at Administration menu -> Summary.

If you are an X-Cart PLATINUM or PRO provider:

  • In X-Cart versions 4.4.0 and later, the Summary page can be found at Tools menu -> Summary.
  • In earlier X-Cart versions, the Summary page can be found at Inventory menu -> Summary.

Information about each of the sections on the Summary page is available below.

Auth code

The top section of the Summary page provides your store's Auth code. It is a key code used to prevent unauthorized access to X-Cart's installation script install.php. When you re-install X-Cart, install an add-on or change your store's skin set, X-Cart requires you enter this code.

License info

This section includes X-Cart's copyright information and provides two links:

  • a link to the text of X-Cart's License Agreement,
  • a link that you can use to verify your X-Cart license status.

General info

This section tells you the following:

  • Single Store mode status (enabled or disabled)
This entry is displayed only in X-Cart PLATINUM and PRO. It shows whether Single Store mode is enabled.
Note: More info on Single Store mode is available in the section Configuration file config.php.
  • Your store's open/closed status
This entry shows whether your store is currently open to visitors or closed.
Note: Your store's open/closed status can be controlled using the option 'Check this to close your shop temporarily' in X-Cart's 'General settings/General options' section. For details, see the description of the option 'Check this to close your shop temporarily' in the section General Options.
  • Date of your store's latest database backup
If your store's database has ever been backed up using X-Cart's 'DB backup/restore' page, this entry displays the date when the backup was performed. The link 'click here to backup >>' displayed in this section allows you to go to the 'DB backup/restore' page.
  • Information on the number of products with a zero price
This entry tells you how many of your products have a zero price. The link 'click here to check >>' allows you to view the list of products that have been detected to have a zero price.
Note: By products with a zero price X-Cart means only regular, non-configurable products whose base price OR the price of the default product variant is defined as 0 (zero). Regular products that have a non-default variant with a zero price and configurable products are not counted as products with a zero price.
  • Orders info
This subsection provides a table with information about orders. In this table, you can see the number of processed, failed/declined, not finished and queued orders for specific periods (Since last login / Today / This week / This month).
  • Shipping methods info
This subsection tells you the total number of enabled shipping methods and provides a table displaying the number of enabled shipping methods per carrier.
  • Shipping rates info
This subsection tells you the total number of defined shipping rates and provides a table displaying the number of defined shipping rates per carrier. It also tells you the status of real-time shipping rates calculation (enabled or disabled).

Clean URLs info

This subsection provides information about missing clean URLs. It tells you the overall number of products, categories, manufacturers and embedded static pages in your store and tells you, how many objects of each type do not have a clean URL value. If your store has any objects for which clean URL values are missing, you can use X-Cart's 'Generate clean URL values' tool to generate the missing clean URL values. The 'Generate clean URL values' tool is available in the 'Summary/Tools' section of the store's Admin area (See the section Generate Clean URL Values).

Payment methods info

This subsection tells you whether the payment methods enabled at your store can be used on your system.

Environment info

This subsection provides information about your store's environment.

Directories that need to have write permissions

This subsection tells you the status of directories that must have write permissions.
