Set a flat shipping cost for a single item

[gloerick]

it seems the pID is the issue for the shipping not turnning on/off with a click as the pID is "1" and the pID to change the status for the item "in this items case is the pID of 131 so the pID is not updating for the shipping icon.

currently using :

<?php
if ($products->fields['product_is_always_free_shipping'] == '1') {
echo '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_CATEGORIES, 'action=setflag&flag=0&pID=' . $products->fields['product_is_always_free_shipping'] . '&cPath=' . $cPath . (isset($_GET['page']) ? '&page=' . $_GET['page'] : '')) . '">' . zen_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'free_shipping_set.png', IMAGE_ICON_STATUS_ON) . '</a>';
} else {
echo '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_CATEGORIES, 'action=setflag&flag=1&pID=' . $products->fields['product_is_always_free_shipping'] . '&cPath=' . $cPath . (isset($_GET['page']) ? '&page=' . $_GET['page'] : '')) . '">' . zen_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'icon_red_on.gif', IMAGE_ICON_STATUS_OFF) . '</a>';
}
?>

The pID needs to be the products_id and you are using the setting for the:
product_is_always_free_shipping

which will always be 1 or 0 ...

[gloerick]

ok, so I have

<?php
if ($products->fields['product_is_always_free_shipping'] == '1') {
echo '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_CATEGORIES, 'action=setflag&flag=0&pID=' . $products->fields['products_id'] . '&cPath=' . $cPath . (isset($_GET['page']) ? '&page=' . $_GET['page'] : '')) . '">' . zen_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'free_shipping_set.png', IMAGE_ICON_STATUS_ON) . '</a>';
} else {
echo '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_CATEGORIES, 'action=setflag&flag=1&pID=' . $products->fields['products_id'] . '&cPath=' . $cPath . (isset($_GET['page']) ? '&page=' . $_GET['page'] : '')) . '">' . zen_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'icon_red_on.gif', IMAGE_ICON_STATUS_OFF) . '</a>';
}
?>

why is the truck still trigering the item status on/off

and in categories.php I have

break;
case 'setflag':
if ( ($_GET['flag'] == '0') || ($_GET['flag'] == '1') ) {
if (isset($_GET['pID'])) {
zen_set_product_is_always_free_shipping($_GET['pID'], $_GET['flag']);

}
}

Did you change the:
case 'setflag':

or did you just duplicate it? and now have two sections for:
case 'setflag':

If you duplicated it, then it is not "hearing" your duplicate ... it is hearing the original code in the first:
case 'setflag':

[gloerick]

yes I duplicated it and changed the zen_set

break;
case 'setflag':
if ( ($_GET['flag'] == '0') || ($_GET['flag'] == '1') ) {
if (isset($_GET['pID'])) {
zen_set_product_status($_GET['pID'], $_GET['flag']);

}
}
break;
case 'setflag':
if ( ($_GET['flag'] == '0') || ($_GET['flag'] == '1') ) {
if (isset($_GET['pID'])) {
zen_set_product_is_always_free_shipping($_GET['pID'], $_GET['flag']);

}
}


Like I said, I am not a programer, so I do not see what is wrong when I changed teh zen_set from staus to shipping

[gloerick]

tried setting

break;
case 'setflagshipping':

AND

zen_href_link(FILENAME_CATEGORIES, 'action=setflagshipping&flag=0&pID='

to give the setflag a uniqe name.

Did you make a function for:
zen_set_product_is_always_free_shipping

[gloerick]

your tourchering me huh, you know I most likley did not,
and no, no idea I had to or how to.

can you please guide me to get it working ?

Create a new file in:
/admin/includes/functions/extra_functions

call it something like:
always_free_shipping_functions.php

and add the code:

<?php
////
// Sets the status of a product
  function zen_set_product_is_always_free_shipping($products_id, $always_free_shipping_status) {
    global $db;
    if ($always_free_shipping_status == '1') {
      return $db->Execute("update " . TABLE_PRODUCTS . "
                           set product_is_always_free_shipping = 1, products_last_modified = now()
                           where products_id = '" . (int)$products_id . "'");

    } elseif ($always_free_shipping_status == '0') {
      return $db->Execute("update " . TABLE_PRODUCTS . "
                           set product_is_always_free_shipping = 0, products_last_modified = now()
                           where products_id = '" . (int)$products_id . "'");

    } else {
      return -1;
    }
  }

[gloerick]

copy this from the general.php ?

// Sets the status of a product
function zen_set_product_status($products_id, $status) {
global $db;
if ($status == '1') {
return $db->Execute("update " . TABLE_PRODUCTS . "
set products_status = 1, products_last_modified = now()
where products_id = '" . (int)$products_id . "'");
} elseif ($status == '0') {
return $db->Execute("update " . TABLE_PRODUCTS . "
set products_status = 0, products_last_modified = now()
where products_id = '" . (int)$products_id . "'");
} else {
return -1;
}
}


all I did was search for zen_set_product_status
