Hi,

Since changing the charset in Zen Cart 1.3.9 to UTF-8 following the installation instructions the Order Totals no longer show in Admin or in the My Account/Order History function on the website.

I am using zencart 1.3.9h and google_base_froogle_feeder_1-10-2. Yes, I know I there's an upgrade available - I tried this but it didn't fix the problem.

Order Totals show for orders that were placed after the change to utf-8 but not any prior to the change.

I have discovered that it's to do with the Text field not being completed in the database, please see this image.

I can amend this manually in the database through phpmyadmin but as you can see this affects 3770 orders (eek!) - and will take too long.

When I look at old backups of the database the Text field is also not filled in so I can't even export & import the old data to fix this.

Is there a way to populate these fields by executing a command somewhere/somehow please?

Any suggestions welcome/appreciated.

many thanks
Claire

P.S. I have also tried uninstalling google_base_froogle_feeder_1-10-2 and changing the database back to latin1_general_ci but it still doesn't fix my problem.

...forgot to say I found a great tool to change the database collation here:

(no, this isn't my problem either - I have used this tool to convert other zencart databases with complete sucess).

I have installed 1.12.0 and debug shows
'skipped due to user restrictions' for most products. does anyone know how to get past this?

I'm all working yehaaaaaa ..1 product was causing all the grief ..I disabled all my products and opened them 1 by 1 till I found which categories were causing the problem ,just finished finding out which product was faulty ...now just need to play around and get it to upload

Isn't that a great feeling? That's the best way to troubleshoot. Going 1 by 1 until you find where is the error.
