This error (HTTP 500 Internal Server Error) means that the website you are visiting had a server problem which prevented the webpage from displaying.  For more information about HTTP errors, see Help.  I talked to BlueHost, my new host, and they found this error on their server: &#91;error&#93; &#91;client 69.195.67.135&#93; File does not exist: /home2/mcgheesm/public&#95;html/media/com&#95;hikashop/js, referer:   www.mcgheesminiatures.com/  They told me that it is a log message from their domlogs.  They suggested going to HikaShop.  I also was trying to work with Mass Actions. I found a post called &quot;Mass delete products&quot;. The post is 10 monthes old. Here someone asked a question about deleting a large number of products. The answer was to create a new mass action, use a csv file with the products to delete, use the file as a filter, and delete as the action. Sounds great to me.  However, when I try to click on New button, I go to a blank screne. I also tried to click on, to open the Mass delete function already in HikaShop, I get the same thing, a blank screen.  I seems like something did not full transfer over to the new host? But since others are having trouble with this as well, I hoping that there is some answer that I'm not finding.

I am selling Dollhouses, everything form kits for a house to tiny accessories. The dimensions I entered for the house kits are the over all dimensions once the house is assembled. This is the size that a buyer would want to know. However, when it comes to shipping, a house that is 48&quot;H X 29&quot;w X 19&quot;D actually ships in a flat box much smaller. So if my shipping plug-in uses the dimensions in the description of the products, the shipping will require a small bank loan! But, again, the buyer wants to know how big the house is once it's put together.So how can I avoid this problem?  Also, I am having trouble finding some documentation that I need. I see a lot of comments about using 'warehouse' when doing shipping. However, I am having trouble finding anything about what warehouses are, and how I set up different ones.  I do have at least 4 different venders/distributors that I offer items from on my website. They will all drop ship for me. But I have to figure out how to figure out a shipping charge to when an order is placed. If anyone can point me towards some good tutorials or info on these topics, I would love it!  I import my items with a CVS file. I have created 'product&#95;vendor&#95;id' and 'product&#95;warehouse&#95;id' columns in the file, and set them up in HikaShop. My products all also belong to a category, (currently I have over 800 categories.) I've been working on this e-com site for a very long time now, and have 40,000+ items to offer! So I really need to get all the technical details worked out so I can put this site to use.  One last item, I have been reading a lot on the forum about HikaMarket and wonder if that is something I should look into.
