Installation

  • CS-Cart or CS-Cart Multi-Vendor 4.17.2 – 4.21.x.
  • PHP 7.2.5 to 8.3 (the range your CS-Cart version supports).
  • A theme based on Responsive (Responsive, Bright, Nova and most marketplace themes).
  1. Download the add-on archive kv_eu_product_safety_gpsr-1.0.0.zip from your Kavio Labs account (My licenses > Downloads).
  2. In the admin panel open Add-ons > Manage add-ons, click the + button (Upload & install add-on) and choose the archive.
  3. The add-on is installed and active. It creates four small tables (kv_gpsr_*) and a product tab “Product safety”.
  4. Open the add-on’s License tab and enter your license key (see License).
  5. Follow the Setup checklist (Products > Product safety (GPSR) > Setup checklist): upload the official legal guarantee notice, add your manufacturers and link them to your brands.

Administrators need the core catalog privileges: View catalog to open the pages and Manage catalog to save. On Multi-Vendor, vendors can open Products > Product safety (GPSR) for their own manufacturers and the product tab of their own products; the notice images and the setup checklist are for the marketplace administrators.

Upload the new archive in Add-ons > Manage add-ons the same way. The add-on brings its database tables, settings and texts up to date on the next admin page view (self-healing upgrade); your manufacturers, product data and images are kept.

Add-ons > Manage add-ons > the add-on’s menu > Uninstall. This removes the add-on’s tables (manufacturers, brand links, product data, safety texts), the uploaded notice and GARAN images, its settings, texts and the product tab. Export what you want to keep first.

The add-on checks its license for your store’s domain once a day from the admin panel (never from the storefront). The license card at the top of the add-on page shows the status, the licensed domain and the update period.

License card

  • Trial: without a key the add-on runs for 14 days.
  • Without a valid license: the legal guarantee notice, GARAN badges, the manufacturer card and the “Product safety” tab are hidden on the storefront; your manufacturers, notice images and product data are kept and the admin pages keep working.
  • Development and staging hosts (localhost, private IP addresses, *.local, *.test) are always free; subdomains of the licensed domain are included.
