How can I enhance my experience with Prestashop Manager?

Procédure

Preamble

PrestaShop is a free, open-source e-commerce platform that lets you create and manage an online shop. It offers a wide range of features that make it easy to set up an online business without any advanced development skills. Prestashop Manager, or PSManager for short, is a tool developed by LWS that enhances the Prestashop experience directly from your customer area. Backing up, changing a user's password or automatically connecting to your shop are just some of the things you can do with our tool.

Where can I find Prestashop Manager?

Prestashop Manager is an installation management tool, just like WordPress Manager, so it can be found in the same place as WordPress Manager: in the "Software" section of your LWS control panel.

Please follow this documentation to connect to the Prestashop Manager.

How do I detect Prestashop sites on my hosting?

On the PS Manager, you can see all the Prestashop shops installed on your hosting, if you have any. If this is the first time you have used this tool, you will not see any shops.

In order to detect the shops present on your hosting, we invite you to follow this documentation.

Don't have a shop?

If you don't have any Prestashop shops on your site, don't worry! This documentation will explain step by step how to install a new Prestashop site on your hosting.

Once your shop is installed, you can return to the PS Manager to continue.

Automatic connection to a Prestashop shop

The PS Manager lets you authenticate to the dashboard of your Prestashop shop without having to enter your login details. This practical feature is explained in this documentation.

Changing the SuperAdmin password

"Update ADMIN password" allows you to change the password of any SuperAdmin user in your shop. This option is described in this documentation.

Prestashop shop management page

By clicking on the "Manage Prestashop installation" option in the submenu of a site, you will be redirected to a brand new page allowing various additional actions.

At the top of the page, you'll find basic information about the shop being managed, such as its name, URL, version and a preview of its home page. The login button is also present, and works in a similar way to the one found on the previous page. This means you'll always know which site you're editing, no matter which page you're on.

Snapshot page

This same page allows you to make snapshots, a copy of the state of a site at a given moment. In simple terms, it's a kind of backup that you can make whenever you want and in as many copies as you want.

This documentation explains how to do it.
