Hi,

Before updating something on a live website, you should always test the update on a copy of the website, especially if the website is a sensitive piece of your business.

Please provide a link to a copy of the website with the update so that we can look at the problem in order to analyze it since no one else reported such problem so far.

I'm going to have to stick with what I have at present.

Can you advise where I can find (location) of the files that I have altered in Display/Views in a backup? I can locate the originals but not the one's I changed?

thanks

I have just updated our site and we are encountering the same problem. If I cannot solve it I will have to regress to the previous version. We place an order, check that we have an item listed in our shopping cart, select the payment method and get to the "Shipping" page and then displays "Cart is Empty" and stops. Cannot process any orders.

-- url of the page with the problem -- : [ www.qja.com.au](http://www.qja.com.au)
-- HikaShop version -- : 2.3.1
-- Joomla version -- : 2.5.22

I had the same problem and it is fixed in the preview version of Hikashop 2.3.2.
You have to request it as explained here [ www.hikashop.com/forum/checkout/868584-c...html?start=40#162500](http://www.hikashop.com/forum/checkout/868584-cannot-empty-checkout.html?start=40#162500)

I am still waiting for an answer to know whether the 2.3.2 preview is safe to use on a production site.

Hi,

Yes the preview is safe to use on a production site. But as always we recommend to have a test environment in order to test the updates before using them in production.
