Questions about social media experts: Should I hire one for an Opencart website?

I have an opencart website, and I have a business page on Instagram and Facebook, but I mostly generated sales from organic search results. I have recently received several emails from social media experts offering me their services. Not exactly cheap - they want US$500+ per month for managing my co...

Re: Is there a way to remove/disable the contact form from contact us page? [3.6.0.6]

Does it actually work? I have never used an extension like this before. How does it function? What is the mechanism? Of course it works. It uses an invisible honeypot trap field which only robots will fill in. Also, it checks for certain keyboard/mouse/touch events for the form submissions which ro...

The rough way to remove the contact form would be to remove it from the contact page file as below if you're using the default theme.

/catalog/view/theme/default/template/information/contact.twig
Where do I remove it within the contact.twig? Should I comment something out?

Or you could use the SpamBot Buster which is able to distinguish between genuine human users and spambots, and which rejects the latter not only for the contact page, but it also prevents fake account registrations, amongst others. Does it actually work? I have never used an extension like this bef...

Re: Is there a way to remove/disable the contact form from contact us page? [3.6.0.6]

You can but you can also install a firewall, bad traffic blocker, captcha and spam blocker extensions. Okay, where do I find a suitable firewall, bad traffic blocker, captcha and spam blocker extensions that you speak of? There's way too many on the market, can't figure out which one would actually...

Is there a way to remove/disable the contact form from contact us page? [3.6.0.6]

I am getting too many spams via contact form and I have other ways for customers to contact me. So, I'd like to disable/remove the contact form from the contact page.

Is there an easy way to do this? I looked around but couldn't see a solution for this for 3.6.0.6

What is the purpose of tags in product page?

Just wondering.

Are they used to find products within the site, or do they serve any Google SEO purposes?

Also, does it make a difference if they are capitalized?

Re: How many tags should one have for each product? {3.0.3.6}

What is your expectations and use that you think product tags will provide? I can tell you that the built in search uses them BUT they don't parse them. Meaning if you have: Purple people eater, Purple eater Then do a search for people eater it will not find that product. You'll need to have Purple...

Re: Are there any OpenCart specific online SEO tools like Semrush? [3.0.3.6]

You won't want to have any dealings with Semrush, their bots keep bombarding websites even when told not to. Just focus on good quality contents on your pages, and maybe use SEO because it'll make it easier for Google to understand what your pages, products, and your website are about. Google needs...

Re: Customers not receiving order notification email. Should I buy an extension? {3.0.3.6}

You don't need any extension. You will always have some customers not receiving their emails, because they go to junk or bounced by filters. Just keep this in mind and ignore complaints in the future. Not something which you can fix. Thanks for your reply. The thing is, I've received this complaint...

If you make edits in the theme editor - you need to make any subsequent edits in the theme editor.
Editing from theme editor from the admin panel worked!
Although editing the footer.twig file seemed to have had no effect.
Thank you for your help!

The code itself is fine. Maybe you added it in a wrong place - for example, wrong theme folder.
I checked, it's correct path. I use default theme and I edited the '/catalog/view/theme/default/template/common/footer.twig'. Wonder what I'm doing wrong or what's preventing the change.

Thanks for your reply.
I cleared Module Cache, Theme Cache, SASS Cache, and tried 3 different browsers.

Is there something wrong with my code? Or, any other files I need to edit?

Bad practice; especially when the OC version doesn't exist originally from opencart.com .
OC Version is [3.0.6.0], typed it wrong initially.

Get a decent SEO extension that implements canonical URLs. We've used this one for clients and it seems good: https://www.opencart.com/index.php?route=marketplace/extension/info&extension_id=30170 Are canonical URL's really that important? I am also shopping for a good SEO extension but I don't...
