Joomla installation magic quotes issue - joomla

The latest Joomla 3.0 will need magic quotes to turn off in order to start the installation.
As usual, i turn it off using php.ini created inside the sub folder where my joomla files are inside.
in my phpinfo, magic_quotes_gpc is writing Off. but in my joomla installation page, magic quotes still showing "No".
any ideas?

No way of solving it with a php.ini file. It'll "seem to work" but doesn't. You need to set magic_quotes_gpc = off on the server php configuration.

Usually editing the php.ini requires the restart of the server to work.
Have a look at the PHP function get_magic_quotes_gpc. There may be no issue with Joomla after all.

Userfrosting installation issues

I did installation of Userfrosting as per the steps - no errors and all went well (using ubuntu 16 command line).
When i loaded the site in browser, page did came but no CSS applied. Browser console said - failed to load resource. I checked and found that “asset-raw” folder is not there under userfrosting/public (this is my webroot).
Also when clicked on sign-in, it does not work. DO let me know if i missed anything.
Thanks
Rahul
If you're using Apache, you need to make sure Mod_Rewrite is enabled. asset-raw is not a real directory, it's an alias managed by the app.

Opencart 2 caching

Has opencart 2.1 a cache system apart from modification?
I'm trying to restyle an opencart 2.1 site.
I've modified catalog/view/theme/my-theme/template/product/product.tpl
but I'm not able to see my updates.
The site has only 1 modification that affects Admin area...I've also tried to disable it and update cache, but without success.
I've tried to open site in another browser, but nothing.
Finally I've tried to rename product.tpl to product111.tpl (also in view/theme/default/product)... but the original product page is still loaded.
Does someone know why this happens?
UPDATE : I haven't found a solution, so I made a fresh installation, applied custom theme and then copied modified files... everything is Ok now. If I modify product.tpl, all changes are visible in product page.
If you have vQmod installed there is a vqcache also.
You can check to see if you have vQmod installed like this:
yoursite.com/vqmod/install
It should usually clear itself, but if it doesn't then you can safely rename the vqcache folder to clear it.
The reason I say rename rather than delete is that sometimes a change to the cache will show an error which wasn't spotted when the original change was made and might prevent orders until it's fixed. If you rename then you can place the folder back and it will work again but of course you should fix the error when you can.

Prestashop smarty is not removing the cache

In prestashop I wanted to customize the default bankwire payment module. I have changed many things there in the payment.php file which is working file, but when I tried to change the smarty file(payment_execution.tpl) it did not showed any changes. I tried to remove cache from the cache folder then I tried every process which tells to remove cache, disable cache from the store. But it did not showed the changes in the frontend. I also made the same changes inside prestashop theme folder (themes/default-bootstrap/module/bankwire) but still it did not showed the changes. So can someone tell me what's the issue here?
Delete everything inside cache/smarty/cache and cache/smarty/compile
Set the option Template compilation in ADVANCED PARAMETERS > PERFORMANCE
to Recompile templates if the files have been updated
Search for all files named payment_execution.tpl in PrestaShop
If it doesn't work you'll need to check the file modules\bankwire\controllers\front\payment.php and follow the instruction $this->setTemplate('payment_execution.tpl'); step by step to see the path of the tpl (you will need a php debugger for that)

fixing the issue where adding \" during article posts in administrator panel:
magic_quotes_gpc = Off

Disable these options from your php.ini file.
You can also overwrite the php.ini.
Please check the link for overwriting php.ini using .htaccess.
How to turn off magic quotes on shared hosting?
Based on your server configuration you may have multiple .htaccess and/or php.ini files in the various directories. They may turn off magic quotes in your frontend, but not in the backend as an example. So check if you have turned off magic quotes in each file.
Or it's just a setting in your editor to escape the quotes.

Joomla com_extplorer keep reloading page

I'm used to install extplorer in every joomla project, always everthing going well.
This time at the extplorer launch time its keep loading the web page in loop mode( tried to change permissions in administrator/components , triade to let Aruba install joomla) nothing worked.
Any suggestion ?
Do you have the Admintools extension installed and a custom .htaccess file?
If yes, open AdminTools and htaccess maker.
Under Server Protection>Exceptions>Allow direct access to these files
Add the following line:
administrator/components/com_extplorer/fetchscript.php
to the list of allowed files and regenerate your .htaccess.
