# Faq

### General

#### Do I need ox\_lib?

No. ox\_lib is completely optional. If installed, the script uses lib.callback for stock sync. Without it, stock works from config values.

#### Do I need a database?

No. Everything runs in memory and config files. No SQL setup required.

#### Does it work with both QB-Core and ESX?

Yes. The script auto-detects your framework. You can also set it manually in config.

***

### Items and Stores

#### Can I have different items per store?

Yes. Each store in Config.Stores has its own items table with different products and prices.

#### Can I add custom categories?

Yes. Add new category in Config.Categories, add locale strings in shared/locales.lua, and optionally add CSS colors.

#### How do I find item names?

Use the same item names as your inventory system. For example, if burger exists in ox\_inventory, use name = 'burger'.

***

### Images

#### Images are not showing

1. Check Config.UseImages = true
2. Check Config.ImagePath points to correct folder
3. Image filename must match item name (e.g. burger.png for item burger)
4. Make sure images are .png format

#### Can I use both images and icons?

Yes. Items with available images show images. If image fails to load, it automatically falls back to Font Awesome icon.

***

### Stock

#### Does stock persist after restart?

No. Stock resets to config values on server restart. Auto-restock timer also resets.

#### Can I disable stock for specific items?

Yes. Set stock = -1 for unlimited items.

***

### Troubleshooting

#### UI not opening

1. Check server console for errors
2. Ensure framework loads before elenashop
3. Check Config.UseInteraction = true or Config.UseTarget = true
4. Verify store location coordinates

#### NPC not spawning

1. Check ped.enabled = true in store config
2. Verify ped model name is correct
3. Check location coordinates (z coordinate especially)

#### Framework not detected

Set manually in config:

Config.Framework = 'qb' Config.Framework = 'esx'
