User Reviews

• PrestaShop phishing our email

  Pros

  PrestaShop is a great software and really easy to use. I recommend it if you have some developer skills to remove all prestashop tracking things (see the "cons" part).

  Cons

  Security threat: PrestaShop steal your email : when you log in to the administration panel, your email is sent to PrestaShop server and they send to you spam. I found a way to disable this : Open the file /[your admin dir]/ajax.php , and go to the line 658, which starts by $content = @file_get_contents ... replace by $content = @file_get_contents($protocol.'://www.prestashop.com/partner/preactivation/preactivation-block.php?version=1.0&shop=do-not-track-me&protocol='.$protocol.'&url=google.com&iso_country=gb&iso_lang=en&iso_lang=1&email=dont-scam-me@gmail.com&date_creation=2012-04-01&v=1.4.8.2&security=bruno', false, $stream_context); $content = true; A few month ago, PrestaShop server has been hacked (the website was down for a couple of hours) and maybe their database has been downloaded, (including our account number, email, and personal datas).

  Summary

  better than Magento because it's easier to use and install, but the phishing part really annoy me.
