Attention

If your Photo Cart is suddenly getting a 500 error or only displaying a blank page then you or your hosting company has updated the PHP (programming language) to PHP 7 which Photo Cart is not compatible with (and will not be compatible with) mainly because of the removal of the my_sql functions which are replaced with my_sqli functions. 

You would need to have the PHP version downgraded to 5.6 in order for Photo Cart to work. If downgrading the PHP doesn't work then you may have to update Photo Cart to the last version of 7. Download Photo Cart 7 upgrade files. Upgrade instructions.

Photo Cart was retired in 2015. Check out Sytist.

Turned on Text Edit and changed some words in the welcome text. When I turned it off again had all letters ?-?-? got some strange characters instead.
Ideas?

Thanks,
Stig

If you are using Photo Cart 7, Download this zip file

Inside that zip file is a "photocart" folder. Upload the contents of that folder into your Photo Cart folder overwriting the existing files.

There are many changes in the files to help with accented characters and mainly the way it is saved to the database. Previously they were saved incorrectly in the database then decoded when displayed. With the changes in these files, it will save them correctly in the database.

Now after you upload these files you will probably have some odd characters, but you should be able to re-edit them and then they should show properly.
