Short answer no.. and until someone steps up to become the "maintainer" for this this add-on, it remains one that shopowners will have to decide if they need it badly enough to consider INVESTING in paying a developer to fix it for them..

A summary of all the "Is TPP Zen Cart v1.5 ready??" questions and answers posted (only a few pages back):

As I said previously to my knowledge NO ONE has looked at the TPP code to evaluate it's v1.5 readiness. There is A LOT MORE to making mods v1.5 ready than simply getting them to register in the v1.5 admin.. Many of these mods will require some core changes to work properly with v1.5 and that my friend is a LOT MORE than simply getting it to show up in the admin menus.. Showing up in the admin menu doesn't mean it will WORK with v1.5..

Until someone in their FREE TIME takes a look at the TPP code to determine exactly what is needed to make it v1.5 compatible, there just isn't going to be a FAST answer for your question just yet I'm afraid..

If you are in need RIGHT NOW, then you can consider hiring someone to update TPP for you.. Otherwise you will need to show a little more patience.. eventually all of these mods get updated as soon as someone has time and a need to update this and a desire to share the updated code..

You are correct.. when this mod has been updated for v1.5 compatibility, the contributor will indicate this when submitting the mod in the free add-ons.. However I need to stress ONCE AGAIN, that getting a mod to appear in the admin menus doesn't mean that it will work, is secure, or is PCI compliant. ALL of these variables must be addressed when add-ons are updated to work with v1.5

Simply "working around" this in this manner could possibly bypass the new security features..

I am willing to give it a try to upgrade this module to Zen Cart 1.5, but it will take some time, since I have to do this in my spare time.

I am trying.. it's tough because some shopowners seem to forget that this is OPEN source.. and EVERY SINGLE add-on was created by some poor soul WITHOUT compensation and IN THEIR SPARE TIME.. NO ONE is obligated to share their code or time..:no:

There is a segment of the community who HONESTLY think that there is some altruistic motive behind this "sharing".. That add-on creators and maintainers were thinking about all the poor small shopowners who don't have IT budgets. That these people in their spare time generously created or updated an add-on to save the poor small shopowner from having to "do without"..

The REAL truth is that nearly every person who has created or updated one of these add-ons has done so for their OWN personal needs. They THEN shared their work with the community. The only thing altruistic about this is the fact that they shared their updates/creations at all.

I've said it before, and I will keep saying it no matter how some folks dislike it when I say this: Small businesses who are relying SOLELY on free add-ons to run their businesses should reconsider that business model. At some point if an add-on is THAT crucial to your shop/business/livelihood, then you are going to need to budget for the occasional services of an outside developer to update things you cannot update yourself.

OR

You can wait patiently for the VOLUNTEERS who maintain or create free-add-ons to find time in their busy schedules (which are MORE IMPORTANT than a shopowner's need for a fast update) to update the add-on you NEED..

And because I recently got accused by someone of not empathizing or understanding the needs of small shopowners let me say this: It's not that folks don't get that it's important to small shopowners.. I get it, but speaking personally my family, paid clients, and my day job are HIGHER priorities than some STRANGER'S e-commerce shop.. Now that may sound harsh, but it's the truth..:lookaroun If you need an add-on FASTER than a volunteer can fix it, then it's time to INVEST in your business and pay to fix the add-ons your BUSINESS needs..

Hello
Is possible to using Related Products contribution in Tabbed Products Pro in order to appear with other tags (Reviews, Customers Also Purchased, Additional Images)?

Hello everyone,

Today I was checking out a mod on one of my sites and while checking a couple of things with the Firebug addon for Firefox I accidentally clicked on the "Console" button which also had the "Errors" button clicked and much to my surprise I noticed there was a couple of errors listed (errors were not associated with mod I was checking out). Now both these errors were the same and basically said the following.

Code:

---

"NetworkError: 400 Bad Request - http://www.mywebsite.com/min/?f=&1310864200"

---

So after some investigation it seems that this is related to the TPP mod as I checked all the other mods and the template and nothing else uses the "min" directory.

So I am curious to know does anyone know what might be causing this error to show up for?

Note this error is only showed when looking at the site with Firebug. There is now error in the cache directory nor does the website show this error on any of the pages.

When I click on the "Headers" tab in Firebug I get the following information.

Now with this information does anyone have any idea what is going on here and why are these errors present in Firebug?

Also can someone please tell me what the contents of the "min" directory is suppose to do in regards to TPP.

I'm also using version 1.07 of TPP.

Thanks.

Actually it is not a tpp problem but a minfy problem, but since the last versions of tpp had minify integrated :frusty: I guess it makes it a tpp problem to :cry:

I do not know why this error happens, because I never used the integrated minify, but always the stand alone version, and therefore do not if there are any differences.

Which version of Zen Cart are you running?

You could turn minify off in your admin, and see if the error is still occurring

Currently. i am trying to make TPP work properly in Zen Cart 1.5 in my spare time, but so far with little luck. :censored:
