Web development articles on WordPress and Bitrix: choosing a platform and a contractor, 1C integration, the server environment and common mistakes explained.
How to migrate an online store from Bitrix to WooCommerce: audit, catalog, customers with their old passwords, order history, a 301 redirect map and a pre-launch checklist.
Every business owner today has this question on their mind, because the right choice is one of the keys to a high-quality website or a successful update of an important existing project. Naturally, a task this important calls for a professional and well-thought-out approach!
Today we will walk through, step by step, how to set up Apache correctly on Windows. It is well known that file-based databases run faster through a web server than through a shared network folder. This is much more noticeable on computers of the “my mom bought it for me in first grade” kind, where working with regular network shares and 1C is impossible. Access through a web server, however, will work perfectly well even on such outdated and low-powered computers.
This is probably a question every entrepreneur has faced. You have your own business, you want to grow it, but you do not have enough “hands,” knowledge or time to keep track of every process. After all, everything depends on you: logistics, advertising, hiring, legal problems, financial matters.
The “Request source verification error. Update the exchange module” error during order exchange with 1C: how to fix it with two commands in the Bitrix admin panel.
Custom website design or a template: the pros and cons of both approaches, development cost and timelines, and the risks of choosing a ready-made solution.
This category is for those who are ordering a website, run one in-house or already work with a contractor and want to understand the technical side. We write about projects on WordPress and Bitrix and also about Bitrix24 when the website is connected to the CRM.
The articles here are of three kinds.
Choosing a solution. Which platform fits the task, when a ready-made template is enough and when you need a custom design, how to choose and vet a contractor. We explain what the budget and timeline depend on and say plainly when an expensive solution is not needed.
Integrations. Data exchange between the website and 1C or BAS, the connection to Bitrix24, work with the APIs of external services: what can be set up with standard tools and what will require custom development.
Error breakdowns. Failures after updates and after moving to another server, data exchange errors, PHP version incompatibility. For each case, we cover the cause, diagnostics, the fix and how to check the result. We provide commands and code you can reproduce, but we recommend testing them on a copy of the website first.
Everything here is based on projects we build and support ourselves.
