I try to see in my admin but could not find it anywhere


Thank you

admin -> catalog -> news & articles - articles (click the comment button)

One way to prevent this is to go to

admin -> configuration -> News & Articles Management

and set Comments Require Customer Login to true

I had the same problem, for me the solution was to modify the UPDATE part of the query tio include the zen_ prefix. I did this in phpMyAdmin, but you could probably also do it useing the Admin->SQL Update option. The correct sql should be:

Code:

---

UPDATE zen_configuration, zen_configuration_group SET zen_configuration.configuration_group_id = zen_configuration_group.configuration_group_id WHERE zen_configuration_group.configuration_group_title = 'News & Articles Management' AND zen_configuration.configuration_group_id = '2504'

PLEASE, backup your DB before you try it!

Does this work with v. 1.37?

I doubt that naybody else will have seen this, as it's most likely due to the combination of a template that dispenses with Zen Cart's core layout tables and relies instead on floats to hold everything else in place, and this mod which doesn't know anything about that need for floats.

This is further complicated by the apparent absence of a div wrapped around the main content to which to apply the missing float. It's difficult to tell whether this is due to the mod, or other changes that have been made, as you have rather a lot of validation errors on the site, many of which are adversely affecting each page's structure.
