So I started out with a new install in a temporary directory so I could get a feel for this store.
I put many hours into it, and have many problems with it and find a lack of support for it.

My latest problem is that I moved my site to another directory, and imported the working database that I have created over the past week or so.
I also used edited the config.php to access the new database with the imported old database. The site looks fine and the admin area seemed fine.

Except when I try to access:

Extensions > Shipping
Error: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '$_' (T_VARIABLE) in /home/valleybee/public_html/store2/admin/language/en-GB/shipping/pickup.php on line 3

Extensions > Payments
Error: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '$_' (T_VARIABLE) in /home/valleybee/public_html/store2/admin/language/en-GB/payment/pp_pro.php on line 3

Extensions > View All
Error: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '$_' (T_VARIABLE) in /home/valleybee/public_html/store2/admin/language/en-GB/payment/pp_pro.php on line 3

All the other sub-menus under Extensions appear fine.

So now I am wondering on what I need to do to fix the above errors?

I am thinking it has something to do with me installing other payment and shipping extensions, but not sure why if I use all the existing working files and database in the new hosting location, it's not working.

    Something I do find odd is that the error are to do with en-GB files, but I changed my settings to en-US, so why would changing the location of the site now change what version of en to use?

    I fixed what ever the cause was by deleting the following files:

    en-GB/payment/pp_pro.php
    en-GB/payment/pp_pro_iframe.php
    en-GB/shipping/fedex.php
    en-GB/shipping/pickup.php

    All were installed on the previous location but for some reason, they were not liked in the new location.

    Alway remember to clear cache when moving, or doing config changes. ;)

    If your talking browser cache, done that.

    Also found after moving that the menu on the right side, when going into any of the sections,
    the buttons that appear in the top right corner for Save, Save & Edit, Delete, Add, are all shifted to the right off the screen behind the
    right side menu options. only the green check mark save button is showing.

    I think I am either going to start over or give up all together.

    Took some getting used to, but I was really starting to like it once I was getting the hang of it.

    Many, many issues with extensions that don't work, unable to purchase extensions, lack of support.

    Seems your the only active person on here Rune.

    I am not sure where to delete it.
    Looked at the menus on the right and left and not seeing it.
    Checked the files and no cache folder so I'm not sure.

    Then you need to make yourself familiar with the system, system settings is the first thing you should look at after installing ;)

    In what way did you do this, tell us all steps involved please ...
    If you just changed language code on the default English, you surely has messed up a bit, and that might explain several of your issues.

    I installed en-US from the marketplace.
    Then in settings, I changed it from en-GB to en-US.

    I think I might know what I did that caused the issue.
    When I started with my new hosting of the site, I first installed the website from scratch which created a demo site.
    I then copied all the old site files and copied over the newly installed files.
    I then imported the old database over the new database.

    I think the problem is that even though I looked in the admin settings and it did show the site using en-US, it appears to be getting the en-GB setting from somewhere else. Is there another config file elsewhere which stores these settings?

    None the less, I think I will delete everything, and try a new install.

    OK

    en-US is only translated 2% in total, maybe someone should help out on it: https://crowdin.com/project/arastta
    It doesn't make any big difference installing it, beyond the different language code. But the language code is surely important enough sometimes.

    Don't know why you did copy the old files, but if they was from a different version of Arastta, or the databases was different versions, that would make some mess for sure. But impossible for us outsiders to tell.

    There is only one config file in rot, the rest is settings, stored in the database. But quite a few settings etc is cached, thus you should to clean it after moving, upgrading etc.

    When it comes to language files they fallback to en-GB, and since most is missing for en-US, it's mostly only en-GB files loaded in your store.

    Starting from scratch, or using the Cloud, sounds like the best idea at the moment.
