Applies to FEC and PP Express Checkout - Checkout with insufficient stock

**kiddo** · 10 Jul 2009, 05:32 AM

I'm loosing some hair today with sites using either or both PP Express checkout button and FEC module.

Applies to version 1.3.8

Other installed mods: Stock by Attribute 4.7 (not Multi or Ajax)

Symptom: Checkout is allowed with insufficient stock even with proper settings in admin--Stock ie: don't allow checkout.

To fix the PP Express problem: edit ipn_main_handler.php

Near the top, find the line that says:

Code:

/**
 * handle Express Checkout processing:
 */
if (isset($_GET['type']) && $_GET['type'] == 'ec') {
  // this is an EC handler request
  require('includes/application_top.php');

and just BELOW that, add the stock check code:

Code:

  // Stock Check
  if ( (STOCK_CHECK == 'true') && (STOCK_ALLOW_CHECKOUT != 'true') ) {
	  $products = $_SESSION['cart']->get_products();
	  for ($i=0, $n=sizeof($products); $i<$n; $i++) {
  	  if (zen_check_stock($products[$i]['id'], $products[$i]['quantity'])) {
    	  zen_redirect(zen_href_link(FILENAME_SHOPPING_CART));
    	  break;
      }
    }
  }

Now for FEC fix...

in includes/modules/pages/no_account/header_php.php find:

Code:

// redirect to homepage if no products in cart
if (!$_SESSION['cart']->count_contents() >= 1) {
  zen_redirect(zen_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT, '', 'NONSSL'));
}

and just BELOW that, add the stock check code:

Code:

  // Stock Check
  if ( (STOCK_CHECK == 'true') && (STOCK_ALLOW_CHECKOUT != 'true') ) {
	  $products = $_SESSION['cart']->get_products();
	  for ($i=0, $n=sizeof($products); $i<$n; $i++) {
  	  if (zen_check_stock($products[$i]['id'], $products[$i]['quantity'])) {
    	  zen_redirect(zen_href_link(FILENAME_SHOPPING_CART));
    	  break;
      }
    }
  }

Now at least in these two places, no more checking out with not enough stock.

Note: These changes work and make sense to me to solve a problem. I looked all over forum for similar fix and see nothing. But then search here isn't so good.

Be careful and happy hacking.

One quick note for FEC users.

I think you can put the same inventory check code into:

includes/modules/pages/login/header_php.php

On site I am working on, this is bypassed (no option to create account at all)

So I think for more standard FEC, the file I mention above would be the proper place.

probably right AFTER:

Code:

// redirect the customer to a friendly cookie-must-be-enabled page if cookies are disabled (or the session has not started)
if ($session_started == false) {
  zen_redirect(zen_href_link(FILENAME_COOKIE_USAGE));
}
