Extensions' updates

From the Changelog tab of each product page, you can find detailed information about all new versions available. 

Demo

License and domains

License migration to Magento 2

We offer our customers who want to migrate their Magento 1 license to a Magento 2 license, the transfer at a reduced price. 

You have the possibility to migrate your license directly from your Wyomind account in:
My account › Licenses & Downloads

Click on migrate to magento 2  in front of the extension and the domain you want to transfer. 

Confirm you want to migrate your license to a Magento 2 license by clicking on Confirm and checkout .

An invoice will be automatically added to your account from: 
My account › Invoices

The price of the transfer is equivalent to a 30% reduction compared to the price of the regular Magento 2 license.

You can proceed to the payment by clicking on PP .

Once the payment is done, you can go back to: 
My account › Licenses & Downloads

There you will be able to download and install your license for Magento 2. 

License validity

A license is valid for an unlimited period of time on one single Magento installation.

If you use more than one Magento installation, you will have to buy a separate license for each one.

If you run several domains on the same Magento installation, you will need only one license for all of them.

Although your license doesn’t have a limited period of validity, your support period does. By purchasing an extension, you’ll be granted a 6-month support period for free. Passed this period, you will have to renew your Support plan (see FAQ: How to extend my support period?).
Domains pre-registration

You can pre-register your live domain to your license in advance.

Thanks to this option, you'll be able to get the extension ready to use on your domain before it goes live.

To pre-register your production domain: 

  1. Go to:
    mY account › Licenses & DOwnloads
  2. Click on  next to the extension you want your domain to pre-register on.
  3. Click on the link at the bottom of the page saying:
    Do you want to pre-register your domain in order to be ready to go live?
  4. Finally, enter your domain name and click on pre-register now .
Testing environments

One license is valid for an unlimited period of time on one Magento installation only.  

It is possible, however, to extend or transfer your license in 2 cases: 

  • If you'd like to add your testing environments to your license.
    In this case, it is possible to extend your license to an unlimited number of domains for free.
    For example mywebsite-staging.com or mywebsite-dev.com
  • If you want to transfer your license to another live domain.
    In that case, the support period for your license must still be active.


To be able to use the extension on both your production and testing environments, follow the instructions below:

  1. Download the extension.
    (see FAQ: Extensions download).
  2. Install the extension on your production environment.
    (see FAQ: Extensions installation)
  3. Activate the license.
    (see FAQ: Extensions activation).
  4. From your Magento admin panel, enter your current Activation Key in:
    syStem › CONFIGuration › WYOMING › YOUR EXTENSION 
  5. Save your configuration.


Now that you can use the extension on your production environment, repeat the same steps as above on your testing environments.

The only difference this time: a notification will appear in your Magento admin. 

You will be given a choice between:

  1. buy a new license now
  2. add this domain to my license


Click on Add this domain to my license.

A transfer request will then be sent to our team within an hour.

Once the request is taken care of, you will receive a confirmation email.

If your transfer request is accepted, you can use the extension on both environments at the same time.

The order in which you activate your license on your domains does not matter.
You can start with your staging/dev/local environment or with your live domain, the process will be the same.
Production and staging domains definition

When having a lot of registered domains, it can be complicated to have a good visibility in your Wyomind account. 

You have the possibility to assign and group all the staging/test/development environments under one production domain. 

For example, below https://staging.myshop.com should be under https://www.myshop.com.

For that, move your mouse over the staging url. An orange button should display. Click on it.

You'll have the choice between:

  • Remove from production
  • Set as staging of

You can simply choose the production domain for that url.

Once it's done, a notification is displayed to confirm the change has been taken into account.

Modules Installation/Uninstallation

Extensions uninstallation

To uninstall the extension, go on its zip folder and open it.

You will find a shell file (such as: yourextension-uninstall.sh) that you must execute on both your server and Magento root directory.

Once the uninstallation is over, refresh your cache and enable the compiler back again (if you use it).

Extensions installation

Before installing the extension, you’ll have to:

  • Backup your Magento installation in:
    system › tools › backups
  • Disable the compiler in your Magento admin panel if it’s not already disabled:
    system › tools › COMPILATIONS
  • Refresh your cache in:
    system › select cache type › actions › refresh › submit


Now you can install the extension:

  1. Download the extension (zip file) from:
    my account › my downloads
    Refer to FAQ here: Extensions download
  2. Once the extension is downloaded, open the folder and unzip it.
  3. Copy the content of the unzip folder and paste all files and directories in your Magento root directory (the folder content can vary according to the extension but it generally includes app, lib and skin folders).
  4. Once your installation is complete, don't forget to enable the compiler back (if it was already enabled before the installation) and run compilation process.
  5. Refresh your cache, logout from your admin panel and log back in right after.

Next step is to activate your license, to do so, click here: Extension activation

Modules activation

Extensions activation

Once the extension is installed, you have to activate the license: 

  1. Go to your Magento admin panel. A message pops up at the top of the page.

    If the message doesn't appear then you must check that:

    Wyomind's License Manager has not been removed from your installation.
    Wyomind's License Manager is enabled in: app/etc/modules/Wyomind_Licensemanager.xml
    The HTML output for Wyomind_Licensemanager and/or Adminhtml_Notification are not disabled in your system under:  system  

    configuration › advanced › advanced

  2. Copy your activation key.

    You can find your activation key in 2 different places:
    - In the confirmation email that you received after purchasing the extension
    - In your Wyomind account:MY ACcount › My downloads, select the extension and click on  . A new page opens where you'll find your activation key (see below).
  3. In your Magento admin go to:
    SysteM › Configuration › Wyomind › Your extension

    Paste the activation key in the Activation Key field and choose between the automatic (yes) or the manual (no) activation method:
    - By choosing Yes, the connection to Wyomind license server will be automatic. 
    - By choosing No, you will have to log on to Wyomind license server yourself.

  4. Save the configuration.
  5. Clear your caches. 
  6. A message appears at the top of your admin panel: Activate it now!  Click on that link.
  7. Copy and paste the license code in the License code field from your admin or simply click on  Activate now! 
  8. Finally, refresh your cache, log out and log back in straight after, to complete the installation.

To activate the license of an extension that includes other modules, you’ll have to repeat the steps described above for each extension, using the corresponding activation keys (each module has its own activation key).

"Request an IP unlock" message

If "Request an IP unlock" appears in your Magento admin panel, it probably means that you have entered the wrong activation key too many times in your system. 

To solve this issue, follow the steps below:

  • Click on Request an IP unlock.
  • Our team will accept your request within an hour.
  • Once your IP unlock request is accepted, paste your activation key in the Activation Key field.
  • Click on Save Config from:
    System › Configuration › Wyomind › your extension


Then, you should be able to activate your license.

If you keep getting the same "Request an IP unlock" message in your Magento admin panel, reactivate your license from:
System › Configuration › Wyomind › Your extension 

  1. Empty all fields from the license section.
  2. Save the config and clear your caches.
  3. Add only your activation key in the corresponding field.
  4. Save the config and clear your caches.
  5. Finally, reactivate your license by clicking on Activate Now! 
"Unable to update your license" message

If you get the following message on your Magento admin:

Unable to update your license.
Wyomind extension.
Unable to update your license: your subscription has expired.

It probably means that you installed a higher version than the one you're licensed for (yours might have expired and not longer be valid).

For example, you've installed v1.2 but you only have access to v1.1.

To solve this issue, you’ll have two possibilities:

  • Extend your upgrade period by purchasing an additional one (see FAQ on Extensions upgrade).
  • Redownload and reinstall the version you were using before (see below).

Declined transfer request

If your transfer request has not been accepted by our team, it might be because of the following reasons:

  • The requested production domain is run on a different Magento installation than the first one.
    In this case, you will have to purchase a new license.
  • The domain is neither a staging, a dev nor a local environment.
    If your domain is not used solely for testing or development purposes and is run on a different Magento installation, you'll have to purchase a new license.

Troubleshooting

Fatal error: Mage_Core_Model_Resource_Setup.php

If your site crashes and gives this error message after uploading all files to the correct folders:

Fatal error: Class 'Wyomind_Notificationmanager_Model_Resource_Setup' not found in includes/src/Mage_Core_Model_Resource_Setup.php on line 234

It probably comes from installing an extension while the compiler is still enabled.

Important note:

  • If the compilation is enabled on your website, disable it first before installing any extension from: 
    System › Tools › Compilation
    After installation re-run the compilation process and re-enable the compiler.
  • Before installing any extension, it's advisable to backup your Magento installation.

Here is how to disable the Magento compiler:

  1. Edit the following file: includes/config.php and add a # before the 2 following lines:
    define('COMPILER_INCLUDE_PATH', dirname(__FILE__).DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'src');define('COMPILER_COLLECT_PATH', dirname(__FILE__).DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'stat');​

    to get:

    #define('COMPILER_INCLUDE_PATH', dirname(__FILE__).DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'src');#define('COMPILER_COLLECT_PATH', dirname(__FILE__).DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR.'stat');
  2. Then go back to your website admin and re-run the compilation process.
White page using the extension

If you're getting a white page using the extension, you should enable the error reporting in order to display the error. You can do that from index.php.

404 error in the configuration page
Most of the time log-out/log-in may solve this issue.
Scheduled tasks don't work

How do cron tasks work:

  • cron.php is launched regularly from your server side (every 5 minutes most of the time).
  • The cron task for the extension is targeted and evaluates if a data feed or a profile needs to be refreshed (depending on the timestamp stored in the database and on the schedule table for this specific profile).
  • If the above condition matches, then the data feed and the profile is re-generated.

Be sure that you have correctly configured a scheduled task from the server side (cpanel) targeting the cron.php file in your Magento installation.

The extension includes reporting and debug tools for the scheduled tasks in:
system › configuration › Wyomind › the extension

We also strongly advice to install the AOE Scheduler that will help you to monitor the Magento cron tasks.

Base table or view not found

This issue may be due to a problem during the installation process.

You can fix it by following these steps:

  • Access your database via your control panel (Phpmyadmin for example).
  • Delete the entry extensionnamespace_setup from the core_resource table.

    Be careful, that entry depends on your extension. For example, if you have the extension called Simple Google Shopping, you should delete simplegoogleshopping_setup.

  • Logout from your Magento admin.
  • Log into your Magento admin.
403 forbidden error

If when saving your data feed configuration, you get:

Forbidden, You don't have permission to access /.../ on this server.

This is probably something regarding the hosting company that doesn't allow to post XML in the form.

The mod_security (security module) includes rules that stop all post/get requests including code.

In order to fix that issue, you should get in touch with your hosting company so that they can add some exceptions to the security rules.
