Welcome to Copona
Copona is an ecommerce engine, based on Opencart.
We have incorporated numerous improvements, including:
Core Changes
- 
    
Simpler installation process which automatically creates configuration files where needed.
 - 
    
Search engine friendly URL’s are enabled automatically on supported configurations.
 - 
    
More secure password hashing functions
 - 
    
More modern codebase, targetting PHP5.6 as the mimimum supported version.
 - 
    
Rewritten to avoid use of functions that have been deprecated in PHP7.1 (openssl replaces mcrypt throughout)
 - 
    
New metadata table, to enable more efficient storage and retrieval of data.
 - 
    
Simplified code base - removing features from the core install which would be better suited to being add-ons, such as the Openbay system
 
Admin Changes
- 
    
New feature: Product Groups
 - 
    
Ability to save changes to a product and continue editing it, rather than being returned to main menu.
 - 
    
Admin menu - saved in session, not flickering anymore
 - 
    
Language management - languages loaded by code, from Directory name from DB
 - 
    
Smarter product duplication: When a product is copied, the word ‘ (copy)’ is added to to the name of new product
 - 
    
Autocomplete now has “keepDropdown” property - if it’s set to true - dropdown will not disapear oin choose.
 - 
    
Alert message in admin, if form has been changed and not saved.
 
Works in progress
- 
    
From admin interface, it would be useful to be able to view products that are in a category, as well as products that use a specific option.
 - 
    
Moving away from the VQMOD architecture for extending core functionality.
