You need to login to PrestaShop Admin to manage your products, track the orders, change the module configuration settings...etc. A few seconds after login success, you automatically log out. What's wrong?

I'm sure that your computer is not the cause of this. For some reason, it kicks you out of the session. It's no fun if PrestaShop developers need to configure their addons or check order status immediately.

I think that PrestaShop needs to add a timeline to the site so that we can see how long it takes for these bugs to be fixed. I hope that they are able to do so quickly because this is a really frustrating and unfortunate thing to happen.

Follow this PrestaShop tutorial to figure it out and get the easiest solution by accessing the database of your PrestaShop store.

The Average Order Value (AOV) is the average money amount that a customer spends an order on your Prestashop website with you. It also gives some information regarding customer behavior.

The average order value, with the conversion rate (CR) & revenue per visit (RPP), is the most important value a Prestashop-based online store needs to increase to be profitable. Want to calculate the gross revenue? It's here: Traffic x Conversion Rate x Average Order Value.

Although increasing AOV doesn't factor into your profit margins or gross profit, merchants should first try to improve it, which is the process through which each consumer makes more money. It's a very important KPI (Key Performance Indicator) for any business, including Prestashop E-Commerce Stores, that informs you about your pricing strategies.

Increase this value to a point where it's the maximum it can be for your business based on your own data and industry benchmarks. Then let it work on its own while you continue to focus on other important areas of boosting sales and revenue, like acquiring new customers, increasing the customer lifetime value of eCommerce businesses.

How well do you know the logo on? How to customize it and replace the default on the current template with another? I've compiled in this article everything about it on an online shop made with PrestaShop e-commerce platform.

How to change the PrestaShop Logo?

This is not only the first question but also the most exciting question people ask when developing a store based on this open-source eCommerce platform.

To change it on your shop, you need to access the Theme Configuration page:

  • Go to the Back Office to access the Admin panel.
  • Visit Preferences → Theme menu (from the left side menu of the Admin Panel on both PrestaShop 1.6 & PrestaShop 1.7).

On this page, there are 4 types of customizable logos:

If you do not remove or change the default from the Admin Panel, it will appear on the default theme. In case you use a paid template instead of a default template, you still need to change the image because the default file is made by the theme author and will be shown on your store.
