E-commerce Setup with Prestashop on InfinityFree
📌 The process involves registering an account on InfinityFree using Gmail and then signing in to manage hosting.
🛠️ E-commerce platforms like Prestashop and OpenCart can be installed via the Softaculous Apps Installer within the cPanel.
⏳ New Prestashop accounts may require up to 72 hours for server verification before full functionality is available.

Customization and Maintenance
⚙️ To activate the store after waiting, navigate to Soft Parameters, select General, and click Enable Store under the Maintenance menu.
🎨 Store themes and logos can be modified under the Design > Theme and Logo menu; favicon uploads require the .ico file extension.
🖼️ Banners on the main page are managed under the Page menu; for the standard theme, banners should ideally be sized at 1100 x 340 pixels.

Key Points & Insights
➡️ After initial setup, check the maintenance status in the cPanel to ensure the store is enabled, as server verification can delay access.
➡️ When uploading images (like banners), be mindful of file size limitations to avoid upload errors, as demonstrated when the initial upload failed due to being too large.
➡️ Customizing the visual elements like the favicon requires adherence to specific file formats (e.g., `.ico` for icons).
