Well DUH lol, you may have left your sight as is, but did you leave a link to it ? Did you look at the log files?Quote:

Thanks JTheed, I'll take a closer look after work (the day job, that is...)
Whoops, it hadn't occurred to me to find and read a log. Is it in the admin? I've never done this kind of programming before - I'm an HTML/graphics kind of gal.
The URL (not linked, I admit) was in the first post - playscaleminis.biz

Hi JTheed, your mod seems to be working for me for a clean 1.3.9 install. BUT PLEASE add to your install file a Step 7 - Turn the bleepin' thing ON in admin>config. I went through all sorts of mental gymnastics until I noticed COWOA added to that menu!!!!
Still building...

I take back the part about it working... I've got an endless loop. After filling out Billing Information, instead of continuing to Delivery Information, it loops back to the index.php?main_page=login page.
Please go to this thread.Quote:

Hi, I'm a web designer, and last month a client asked me to convert her site to Zencart. Never had any experience with ZC, so the last two weeks have been a big learning curve. However, I'm now on top of it, develoiped a custom template and nearly got it ready.
My client didn't want customers to log in, so I was delighted when I found the COWOA mod. But my install appears to have a bug during the checkout. When you fill in the billing information, then click through to Step 2, it takes you to the default template, with the default stylesheet. And you stay within the default template until you log out.
Obviously I can solve this by overwriting the default template stylesheet with my custom CSS. But that seems very awkward - aren't you supposed to leave the default template files untouched? And why should the link direct to the default template folder anyway?
I've checked to make sure that all the YOUR_TEMPLATE files are in my custom folder. And I've read through most of this thread, but I can't seem to find anything that would help me.
Also I'd like to know how you can stop forcing COWOA customers to log off.
Thank you for this mod, it is working really well for me.
I have found one slight problem though.....
If a customer checks out without an account, then later signs up for a full account, you have two accounts with the same email address.
If I then send a gift certificate from admin, the customer gets 2 gift certificates with 2 different redemption codes!
You may be asking yourself why am I sending gift certificates? Well, I have a competition running where the prize is £30 of gift certificates.
I'm not sure if any emails that get sent from admin have this same problem but I'm guessing they would.
Has anyone come across this before and found a fix?
I think I've fixed the duplicate email address/duplicate email send bug.
Zen Cart doesn't usually allow more than one account to have the same email address so I needed to limit the number of emails sent to 1 if a specific email address was selected.
The duplicate emails can get costly when sending Gift Certificates from Admin :shocking:
In file includes/functions/audience.php, I have changed function get_audience_sql_query to:
All I added was the 'limit 1' code in red.Code:function get_audience_sql_query($selected_entry, $query_category='email') {
// This is used to take the query_name selected in the drop-down menu or singular customer email address and
// generate the SQL Select query to be used to build the list of email addresses to be sent to
// it only returns a query name and query string (SQL SELECT statement)
// the query string is then used in a $db->Execute() command for later parsing and emailing.
global $db;
$query_name='';
$queries_list = $db->Execute("select query_name, query_string from " . TABLE_QUERY_BUILDER . " " .
"where query_category like '%" . $query_category . "%'");
// "where query_category = '" . $query_category . "'");
while (!$queries_list->EOF) {
if ($selected_entry == $queries_list->fields['query_name']) {
$query_name = $queries_list->fields['query_name'];
$query_string = parsed_query_string($queries_list->fields['query_string']);
//echo 'GET_AUD_EM_ADDR_QRY:<br />query_name='.$query_name.'<br />query_string='.$query_string;
}
$queries_list->MoveNext();
}
//if no match found against queries listed in database, then $selected_entry must be an email address
if ($query_name=='' && $query_category=='email') {
$cust_email_address = zen_db_prepare_input($selected_entry);
$query_name = $cust_email_address;
$query_string = "select customers_firstname, customers_lastname, customers_email_address
from " . TABLE_CUSTOMERS . "
where customers_email_address = '" . zen_db_input($cust_email_address) . "' limit 1";
}
//send back a 1-row array containing the query_name and the SQL query_string
return array('query_name'=>$query_name, 'query_string'=>$query_string);
}
If an expert can take a look and let me know if my change will mess something else up I'd really appreciate it.
Otherwise, if all is ok (it looks good in my testing) and anyone else is facing the same duplicate email issues, the above should fix it.
Change the query line to this:Quote:

Thanks but wouldn't that stop me ever being able to email a COWOA customer though?
If a customer is COWOA only, I still want to be able to email them.
Hi,
I'm changing templates and COWOA works on my current template, however when switching templates COWOA disappears. I'm sure I've copied the files over correctly, but I'm still stumped.
Any ideas?
Thanks
1to1music.co.uk
i have installed the COWOA mod, but when i try to checkout through it, after filling out all the details, it give me an error: Your Telephone Number must contain a minimum of 3 characters.
I don't even have a phone field, but only a fax field, which is not required. Even if it is left blank, or i add more then 10 digits, it does not work. I can not go on the next page even if the fax field is blank.
any advise would be helpful. also how do i change the fax fiel to phone, and remove the DOB field.
fixed it myself! admin . configuration . minimum values. Set from 3 to 0.Quote:

JMHO.
Did you copy the files from the YOUR_TEMPLATE folder to your new template folder?Quote:

I have installed add ons before, which is why it's embarrassing.
Can anyone help me past step 1a?

Will the 1.3.9 version of COWOA work with 1.3.8a? - The 1.3.8. version of this mod doesn't seem to be available any more. :(
Thanks.
1.3.8 is available here: http://www.zen-cart.com/wiki/index.p...ithout_AccountQuote:

Many thanks in advance.
COWOA has nothing to do with the logoff page. What other mods have you installed? Have you tried uploading the logoff page again from the regular Zen install files? Perhaps your files didn't transfer properly.Quote:

I know you posted this a long time ago, but thanks for this. I just installed COWOA, tested it, and freaked out a bit as I saw this in the welcome email. Thanks again.:clap:Quote:

I do like Zen Cart, but the current checkout process at the moment is just way too long and far too many pages for customers to endure. :huh:
I am running Zen Cart 1.39d and have installed COWOA. I am having a very difficult time. When someone clicks checkout they only get two options: to register or to log in. There is no COWOA option at all. Other than that the checkout operates perfectly, complete with the green arrows and progress bar.
In my Admin panel there is no listing whatsoever for COWOA. I suspect that if there was I could turn on the COWOA option.
I have gone through all of the files numerous times and am confident that all is right there. I suspect it is a database problem. I tried running the uninstall COWOA.sql and I receive a white screen with this:
1054 Unknown column 'query_builder.query_name' in 'where clause'
in:
[DELETE FROM zen_query_builder WHERE query_builder.query_name = 'Permanent Account Holders Only' LIMIT 1;]
If you were entering information, press the BACK button in your browser and re-check the information you had entered to be sure you left no blank fields.
When I try to re-run the COWOA install sql I get this:
1062 Duplicate entry 'Permanent Account Holders Only' for key 2
in:
[INSERT INTO zen_query_builder ( query_id , query_category , query_name , query_description , query_string ) VALUES ( '', 'email,newsletters', 'Permanent Account Holders Only', 'Send email only to permanent account holders ', 'select customers_email_address, customers_firstname, customers_lastname from TABLE_CUSTOMERS where COWOA_account != 1 order by customers_lastname, customers_firstname, customers_email_address');]
If you were entering information, press the BACK button in your browser and re-check the information you had entered to be sure you left no blank fields.
Is there a 'back door' in a file where I can turn COWOA on? I am at a loss as to what else I can try. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
You're absolutely right and your idea worked spot on. A new upload of the logoff page cured the problem. Many, many thanks for your advice.Quote:

This way when it searches thru the e-mails, if the record belongs to a COWOA customer, it gets skipped.Code:$check_email_query = "select count(*) as total
from " . TABLE_CUSTOMERS . "
where customers_email_address = '" . zen_db_input($email_address) . "'
and COWOA_account != 1";
I'm sure this is simple, I just can't find it....
for some reason the definitions file isn't loading after the mod was isntalled...
I'm showing
box_title_customer
for the box heading of the customers box.... I'm going to double check and make sure all files were uploaded properly... anybody run into this before
Okay, I found the issue...
The package has the definitions file under the following direcotry
\includes\languages\english\extra_definitions
It must be under the admin defines as follows:
/admin/includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/
Not sure if that was just me messing it up....but it's fixed in case anyone else the issue

So I was looking for a add-on that will streamline the process, and still give the customer the OPTION of creating an account. Doing a search, I found this thread, and I am happy to find it! I will certainly download and install this on my test site, and eventually onto my project site.
I will write back to you and tell you how this is going. I'm a new Zenner, so installing modules is kind of scary. But I've already added a couple, and they don't seem to be exceptionally difficult.....
I finally got this installed. I was using Fast and Easy Checkout before and I installed it over a year ago and have been using it with my current template. I decided to create a new template and somehow lost everything and couldnt find the old files. I decided to try COWA because that's all I really need. It was difficult to install with all of the extra mods I have, but I finally got it and tested it and it is working great.
The only problem I have is the "Newsletter and Email Details" section that asks HTML or text email. To customers this would appear that they are forced to signup for the newsletter if they checkout without an account. My question is, how do I disable this section alltogether? I know it doesn't add to the newsletter because I tested it, but I would like to remove the section and just have it send the emails text only.
I just changed it to Email Details in the english language file. That should work fine.Quote:

So far the problem I found is
When I try to checkout without account, I filled all the information -name,phone#,shipping address etc...then I hit continue checkout, all those info i just put in are all gone, and stays at the same page, just like you refresh a page.
I have 3 php scripts is visible on the page
1. Home :: NAVBAR_TITLE
2.
just above the green arrow showing
TEXT_ORIGIN_LOGIN
3. right to the continue checkout bottom
TITLE_CONTINUE_CHECKOUT_PROCEDURE
TEXT_CONTINUE_CHECKOUT_PROCEDURE
I have v1.3.9d ,PHP Version: 5.2.14 (Zend: 2.2.0)
thank you eveyone
it just sounds like you have some files missing due to an error during upload. try reinstalling. and make sure you installed the sql files too.Quote:

Obviously this is not working.
The installation procedure I used:
1) I removed from the install/includes directory the YOUR_TEMPLATE directory, as I have no customized/override templates in this test site. I will rename this directory to match my override directory and include it when I actually put this in my project site (if I ever get to that point-- ha ha)-- anyway, that's what the instructions said to do......
2) I did NOT DO STEP 1a (editing the tpl_header) because I could not find any custom template directory(ies) that had a header_tpl file. For the short term, I didn't think this would matter, as the instructions state this is only for the purpose of preventing the My Account from showing up after the COWA users enter their order number and e-mail. --I thought I'd worry about this issue later)
3)I installed the SQL patch. This was the first time I"ve ever done that. I copied the stuff in the install package, and pasted it in there, and then hit "send" ..... (yes, I made sure it ended with a ; )
4) I added the define('FILENAME_ORDERS_STATUS'); to the includes/filename.php file. I put it as the last line on the page.
5) I went to the Admin, configuration, and there is no COWOA selection available. I could not set the three parametrs as specified.....
Any help would be appreciated............I'm determined to add this module...

How any customer do the shopping without account using zen-cart 1.3.8a. can any one tell me???:smile:
Tabish
It is supposed to do that. Checkout will always take you to the login page because its giving the customer the opportunity to create an account if they want to. After installing COWOA, there should be a Guest Checkout section added to the login page (when there are items in the cart). They'll have to click on that to enter the COWOA phase.Quote:

They do use an account, they just think they are not. It is still creating an account, it is just not asking for a password and they cannot ever log in, etc.Quote:

Its usually because of an error during installation. Files may not have transferred or you may have missed some. Re-install. And did you remember the SQL file??Quote:

Is there a way to modify the contribution so that only customers who require shipping are required to provide that info (after they've chosen the shipping method)?
Expanding on my previous post, my idea would be on the no_account page to have 2 radio buttons below the progress box, labeled "In-Store Pickup" and "Ship My Order", with the first being the default. The shipping step would be removed from the progress bar. The address fields would be pre-filled with my store address, If the user selects the second radio button, the page would be refreshed with shipping being added to the progress bar, the address information would be removed, and the customer proceeds as usual. I suppose the in-store option could be removed from the shipping page as well. I'm not much of a programmer, but would it be feasible? Hints & suggestions welcome.
Sorry for the multiple posts, but the edit timeout is too fast for my limited cerebral resources.
Might creating another page with the buttons added, shipping removed from the progress bar and the address info pre-filled and re-directing the login to this page work? Then licking on the "Ship my Order" button would load the normal no_account page. Or is there a better way?
This file is located in the /includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/common folder. Don't you love how stuff is hidden? :)Quote:

Is anyone using this mod with 1.3.9g or later and using Attributes with Stock module? We installed COWOA and it seemed to be running fine. However, we noticed that it wasn't subtracting stock from the Stock by Attributes. Once we removed the module, stock began to subtract fine.
Anyone else experience that ?
Wow, been reading some parts of this thread and this seems like a lovely contribution.
I'm just wondering if the ones who chose to checkout without an account still gets an option to subscribe to my stores newsletter? Because this is really important to me, and to other shop owners, I believe.
linnx - If this module is supporting newsletter signup I'm definately gonna try it out. I'm also using (and I'm very dependent of) the "attributes with stock" contrib, so I will let you know my results once I've tried.
HOw can i add FN, LN and telephone number with COWOA email only checkout.
Please help
I am able to manage that..if nyone interested to know let me know.
I got a problem when installing SQL for this mod
(version: cowoa_2-0c1).
It reads
"ERROR: Cannot insert configuration_key "" because it already exists"
"ERROR: Cannot insert configuration_key "" because it already exists"
Note: 1 statements ignored. See "upgrade_exceptions" table for additional details.
I tried many times, but it always come out.
Can anybody help me?

Hi, I am having a problem with COWMA. I set up everything up, and when I enter the billing address, and it doesn't move onto shipping address, it just returns to billing address, with the fields left blank. Can anyone help? THanks
I am having an issue, seemingly caused by the integration of this COWOA add-on. On the "Order Review" page, the payment information is blank. When I proceed with the checkout, the order goes through and tells me that the payment method used was "Gift Certificate/Coupon", even though I have AuthorizeNet installed and entered the credit card number in the appropriate fields. I also experience the same issue if I activate and use COD as the payment method, so this issue is not exclusive to the AuthorizeNet software.
I have tried re-copying the files over, but that did not fix the issue. I'm not exactly sure how else to troubleshoot the problem, short of uninstalling the COWOA files and replacing them with my backups of the original files and also running the SQL uninstall script. Before I did all that, I figured I would check and see if anyone here has seen this occur before, or if anyone would know where I can look to find the culprit.
Here is the website in question: http://tinyurl.com/345v9de
Website Info and add-ons installed:
ZC 1.3.9d (yes, I need to upgrade)
CEON URI mapping
COWOA 2-0c1
Category Tab Simple Drop Down Menu 1-02a
EZ Populate
Thanks!
I just went through your checkout and had no issues.Quote:

So the issue is still there... :(Quote:

Any ideas?
------------
Upon further investigation, I hadn't even uploaded the COWOA-modified checkout_payment.php file, so I guess that file isn't the culprit at all. Really stumped on this one...
When I go to Configuration -> COWOA, all I see is Title, Value, and Action, but the rest of the page is blank.
I am using v1.3.9h and I did a full install.
On the front-end, the "sign up" and "login" boxes are the only ones that show up. There is no COWOA box.
I have changed the names of all the override templates.
Any suggestions as to what I have done wrong?
The box is there. You have to have an item in the cart before it will show up.Quote:

I found the post about reinstalling everything. So I re-downloaded the COWOA files and then reinstalled everything. Removed the SQL items and then reinstalled the SQL items.
Still same problem.
I've installed this wonderful add-on on another site with no problems. Not sure what I did different here.

Next, go to "configuration" table and look in "configuration_key" column. The goal is to find the 4 "COWOA_..." entry. For me, they are at the end of the table ("configuration_id" 925 to 928).
If you dont have them, you must run the SQL.
Next, for each COWOA item, look in field "configuration_group_id". You must have the number of the COWOA Id in table "configuration_group. 33 in my case.
If you have 0 like me at the beginning, simply put the right number and save your change. You have to do this for each COWOA item. When done, just go back to admin > configuration > cowoa and everything must be OK !!!!
Good luck !
Someone else had me try to see if this line of code was in the tpl_checkout_payment_default.php file in my templates folder and remove it to fix the problem.Quote:

I checked and it was not. Anyone else have any ideas of why I'm stuck on the billing page and it just keeps refreshing to a blank billing page when I click next.
Site is pretty new. Installed ZenCart, installed a template called LiteRed, then installed COWOA.
I'm so lost on trying to get this fixed.
Thank You
Do you have any log message ? I remember a problem like this one and one of my PHP file have an error (';' or ')' missing)Quote:

Now I'm trying to install COWOA 2.0c1
I'm stacking in installation. In the install.txt, I got a few question.
1.
>>STEP 0-A If you have a Brand New Zen Cart 139 installation, just merge these files into yours. If you do not have a new template, erase the YOUR-TEMPLATE folder.
What is YOUR-TEMPLATE? Does it mean YOUR_TEMPLATE?
If so, can I erase all YOUR_TEMPLATE folders unser install folder?
2.
>>STEP 4 - Install the SQL Patch. To do this, open the file COWOA.sql. In your admin panel, open Tools -> Install SQL Patches.
What is COWOA.sql? Does it mean COWOA_Full_Install.sql?
Regard.

Now I understand install.txt. Thank you.
My customers are stuck in a loop. After filling out the form it simply reloads the billing form, blank, and nothing happens.
I have installed FEC which includes COWOA ..when a customer chooses to checkout with COWOA the standard ' new account' email is sent to customer which thanks the customer for creating an account! Is this a bug or is there a file that I need to change?
Though FEC has a COWOA option, FEC and COWOA are two DIFFERENT modules..Quote:

me again...i'm everywhere... 1.3.9h new install of COWOA
to avoid some of the installation difficulties of my youth ;)
I'm merging the admin/index.php files as we speak and see at about line 86 no notes about the change being notated as COWOA specific and am concerned the index.php is from an earlier version of zencart. don't' want to screw this up:
here is the new 1.3.9h admin/index.php
Code:echo '<div class="row"><span class="left">' . BOX_ENTRY_CUSTOMERS . '</span><span class="rigth"> ' . $customers->fields['count'] . '</span></div>';
echo '<div class="row"><span class="left">' . BOX_ENTRY_PRODUCTS . ' </span><span class="rigth">' .
$products->fields['count'] . '</span></div>';
echo '<div class="row"><span class="left">' . BOX_ENTRY_PRODUCTS_OFF . ' </span><span class="rigth">' . $products_off->fields['count'] . '</span></div>';
echo '<div class="row"><span class="left">' . BOX_ENTRY_REVIEWS . '</span><span class="rigth">' . $reviews->fields['count']. '</span></div>';
if (REVIEWS_APPROVAL=='1') {
COWOA's admin/index.php
actually i think just this is missing from the COWOA vesion with no notation as to whyCode:echo '<div class="row"><span class="left">' . BOX_ENTRY_PRODUCTS . ' </span><span class="rigth">' . $products->fields['count'] . '</span></div>';
echo '<div class="row"><span class="left">'
. BOX_ENTRY_PRODUCTS_OFF . ' </span><span class="rigth">' .
Code:. BOX_ENTRY_CUSTOMERS . '</span><span class="rigth"> ' . $customers->fields['count'] . '</span></div>';
echo '<div class="row"><span class="left">'
I've backed out of the installation as the files are too different from 1.3.9h
there is no notation especially in the ordered_steps (table-less). I have ordered steps already installed, no notation on whether the other code in the page is essential to it all running smoothly.
thank goodness for Dreamweaver tracking and syncing my files.
Since COWOA in incompatible with my payment module, I have decided to uninstall it. But I have run into some difficulties.
First of all I removed the COWOA code on the login page, just so customers won't be able to use it. So far, so good.
I then went on to check if you could create an account as usual. You couldn't. You also can't get your lost password.
Here is the site: sogrenibikes (dot) com
The only thing I did after removing the COWOA code on the login page was to try and run the uninstall.sql
That didn't go smoothly... When done through the admin part by uploading it:
"054 Unknown column 'query_builder.query_name' in 'where clause'
in:
[DELETE FROM zen_query_builder WHERE query_builder.query_name = 'Permanent Account Holders Only' LIMIT 1;]
If you were entering information, press the BACK button in your browser and re-check the information you had entered to be sure you left no blank fields."
The message I get after entering account information while signing up is this:
1054 Unknown column 'COWOA_account' in 'where clause'
in:
[select count(*) as total from zen_customers where customers_email_address = '[email protected]' and COWOA_account != 1]
Help, please?
It kind of sucks not to be able to uninstall it, since it has made my site go out of function! :wacko:
Thank you so much,
Alex
Since installing this mod on 1.3.8 two things occur:
1 - There is an image over the top left of my header image (Within the logo wrapper)
I have searched and found a solution that fixed this issue for other folk but it does not help with my site - woodandknifesupply.com
Have managed to get rid of the logo image BUT!! it obviously leaves a logo placeholder and mouseover web link....
Would be great to get rid of the image placeholder and weblink on mouseover.
Potentially isolated the issue to the following code within tpl_header.php
However I do not know how to fix it...
if (!isset($flag_disable_header) || !$flag_disable_header) {
?>
<div id="headerWrapper">
<!--bof-branding display-->
<div id="logoWrapper">
<div id="logo"><?php echo '<a href="' . HTTP_SERVER . DIR_WS_CATALOG . '">' . zen_image($template->get_template_dir(HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE, DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'images'). '/' . HEADER_LOGO_IMAGE, HEADER_ALT_TEXT) . '</a>'; ?></div>
<?php if (HEADER_SALES_TEXT != '' || (SHOW_BANNERS_GROUP_SET2 != '' && $banner = zen_banner_exists('dynamic', SHOW_BANNERS_GROUP_SET2))) { ?>
<div id="taglineWrapper">
<?php
if (HEADER_SALES_TEXT != '') {
?>
<div id="tagline"><?php echo HEADER_SALES_TEXT;?></div>
<?php
}
?>
<?php
if (SHOW_BANNERS_GROUP_SET2 != '' && $banner = zen_banner_exists('dynamic', SHOW_BANNERS_GROUP_SET2)) {
if ($banner->RecordCount() > 0) {
?>
<div id="bannerTwo" class="banners"><?php echo zen_display_banner('static', $banner);?></div>
<?php
}
}
?>
</div>
<?php } // no HEADER_SALES_TEXT or SHOW_BANNERS_GROUP_SET2 ?>
</div>
<br class="clearBoth" />
<!--eof-branding display-->
2 - From within Admin the default centre top box that lists customers (Modded by the COWOA sql script so it lists COWOA customers) is a bit agricultural...any thoughts re tidying this up would be appreciated.
i.e. displays the sql names
BOX_TITLE_CUSTOMERS
BOX_ENTRY_CUSTOMERS_TOTAL 147
BOX_ENTRY_CUSTOMERS_NORMAL 146
BOX_ENTRY_CUSTOMERS_COWOA 1
BOX_ENTRY_CUSTOMERS_TOTAL_DISTINCT 147
BOX_ENTRY_CUSTOMERS_NORMAL 146
BOX_ENTRY_CUSTOMERS_COWOA_DISTINCT 1
Problem 1 is resolved
Restored the original file as described below and as per manual install guidelines modded the original file.....no more problem with issue 1 :smile:
/includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/common/tpl_header.php
====================================================================
FIND:
-
<li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_ACCOUNT, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_MY_ACCOUNT; ?></a></li>
-
REPLACE WITH:
-
<?php if (!($_SESSION['COWOA'])) { ?>
<li><a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_ACCOUNT, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_MY_ACCOUNT; ?></a></li><?php } ?>
Still need help please with issue two :lookaroun

I have seen other with the same problem, but have seen no definitive fixes; I have attempted all the various suggestions supplied to no avail.
This is the issue:
On step 1, where the user enters their Billing information, upon submitting this form, instead of going to Step 2: Shipping, it just reloads the form.
I have already verified all template folders were updated to my theme ("template_default").
I have verfied that /includes/modules/template_default/no_account.php is on the server.
PLEASE HELP!! Thanks.
For all who are having trouble installing this module try COWOA - Updated and Combined.
Does this work with 1.3.8?Quote:

Because I've got so many mods in 1.3.8, I would probably need to build the site again from scratch.Quote:

It has been worth it...like learning from a nightmare...and took a great deal of time and testing. Had i been more methodical, not trying to save time, and carefully read through all the mods threads, one by one THOROUGHLY...I would have saved some time.
*Make sure all the mods you are adding or updating to 1.3.9h are using that version of the core files that require edits...many don't.
*READ through all the main threads about the mods because there are some fixes in there for 1.3.9h that have never been applied to the download section.
*after you've tried everything to make sure all files are edited correctly and uploaded, Keep poking at unresolved issues and post details of your problem as well as details of your success.
*Dreamweaver's (I'm using CS4) sync feature is very valuable for reviewing you server files match your local files.
*Step carefully though Winmerge, if you are using it as one mistake I found when I'd save changes, sometimes I saved the wrong side to my store.
These mistakes resulted in my redoing all the mods at least three times. However, I found fixes for other zenners that had been bothering them for awhile and had previously gone unresolved.
OH...and be appreciative and gracious of the help you get here...goes a long way...so do frustrating remarks...In other words, you'll never be the same....
Safe journey...
STEP 1a - In your custom templates on your cart, edit the tpl_header.php file and look for this line.Quote:

<?php if (($_SESSION['customer_id']) && (!$_SESSION['COWOA']=='True')) { ?>
Help,I cannot find the
<?php if (($_SESSION['customer_id']) { ?>
in the tpl_header.php of my custom template.
Then where is the exact place of the tpl_header.php ?
Thanks in advance
It is located inQuote:

The line you are looking
[FONT="]<?php if (($_SESSION['customer_id']) { ?>
is on line 48
[/FONT]
I feel like I've tried and tried to do this, but keep running into the same issue. I've installed three times, checked and double checked things, but I'm obviously missing something. On the /index.php?main_page=no_account page, I keep seeing the following.
What did I miss? I'm sure I've looked at it a dozen times, but I just can't see it.
I backed out of this installation as the ordered steps mod that was integrated was too difficult for me.
but I did have this issue and fixed it.
Do you have this file?
/includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/order_steps_defines.php? I guess you could just add the define to the languages/english.php file if it is not working.
Code:define('TEXT_ORDER_STEPS_BILLING', 'Billing');
define('TEXT_ORDER_STEPS_1', 'Shipping');
define('TEXT_ORDER_STEPS_2', 'Payment');
define('TEXT_ORDER_STEPS_3', 'Order Review');
define('TEXT_ORDER_STEPS_4', 'Order Complete');
Thank you athena, that was the problem. Actually my template had the order_steps_defines.php as well, so that was overriding the one in the extra_definitions.
That did get me through that part, but even after spending hours on it, I still was having problems so I removed it again. Is this the best solution for checking out without an account? I don't know why I'm having such a block with this one. I don't like being beat by a plugin, but I want to make it easier for customers to check out. :frusty:
I'm still hoping to attempt to install this again when the dust settles.....I'll post here if I have success.
Hi,
I have been using COWOA since December and just now noticed that the MyAccount and Logoff links are not showing in the header, even when you have logged in as a registered user. I don't think this is the way it is supposed to behave. Following is the Navigation section of my tpl_header.php file where I added the COWOA mod as recommended in the install.txt file. Any suggestions? I have even tried turning COWOA off in Admin and testing it and it still doesn't show the Logoff or MyAccount link when I am logged in:
<!-- ========== NAVIGATION LINKS ========== -->
<a href="<?php echo HTTP_SERVER . DIR_WS_CATALOG ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CATALOG; ?></a>
<!-- mleahy- modified following line for COWOA installation. -->
<?php if (($_SESSION['customer_id']) && (!$_SESSION['COWOA']=='True')) { ?>
| <a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_LOGOFF, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_LOGOFF; ?></a>
| <a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_ACCOUNT, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_MY_ACCOUNT; ?></a>
<?php
} else {
if (STORE_STATUS == '0') {
?>
| <a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_LOGIN, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_LOGIN; ?></a>
<?php } } ?>
<?php if ($_SESSION['cart']->count_contents() != 0) { ?>
| <a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_SHOPPING_CART, '', 'NONSSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CART_CONTENTS; ?></a>
| <a href="<?php echo zen_href_link(FILENAME_CHECKOUT_SHIPPING, '', 'SSL'); ?>"><?php echo HEADER_TITLE_CHECKOUT; ?></a>
<?php } ?>
