Re: Tabbed Products Pro (TPP) Contrib - Official Thread
I experienced the same thing as mentioned by garinlee in the earlier of installation, where after few clicks on different tabs, the 'issue' is disappeared.
but I'm sorry not able to reproduce it now. Mine is on 'live' site.
May I ask for hints on my previous post?

Re: Tabbed Products Pro (TPP) Contrib - Official Thread
There are additional documents (a Word doc and a PDF) with TPP which explain how to create custom tabs which might provide you with the information you are seeking..

Attachment 10935, only after three times click, the tab can display correctly, i had try most product information page in my website, but all of them are exist this problem. so have anyone can help me to deal with this problem? thanks grateful!
hi all, i have already solved the problem that i raised in last time, the problem was probably caused by the 19 line of jscript_tpp.js,
var previoustab=""
if (turntosingle==1)
document.write('<style type="text/css">\n#tabcontentcontainer{display: none;}\n</style>')
function expandcontent(cid, aobject){
if (disabletablinks==1)
aobject.onclick=new Function("return false")
if (document.getElementById && turntosingle==0){
highlighttab(aobject)
if (previoustab!="")
document.getElementById(previoustab).style.display="none"
document.getElementById(cid).style.display="block"
previoustab=cid
}
}
the problem was caused by this code, var previoustab="", because when we into the product info page in first time, there is not item been selected, so the previoustab's value was null, while the default state of tab is to showing the first item, so the code 'document.getElementById(previoustab).style.display="none"' was invalid, the result is both "default" and "selected" item will showing in the same time, after modified 'var previoustab=""' to 'var previoustab="sc1"', the problem was disappear.

Re: Tabbed Products Pro (TPP) Contrib - Official Thread
Running Zencart 1.5 and Tabbed Products Pro 1.09. I can see the settings in admin, but the products do not display on the product page when I edit the tpl_product_info_display.php file per the read me file. When I add the code here
1.This tells the product page to load the TPP module file:
FIND: <div class="centerColumn" id="productGeneral">
ABOVE THAT, ADD:
<?php
//BOF :: Tabbed Products Pro ::
require(DIR_WS_MODULES . 'tabbed_products_pro.php');
//EOF :: Tabbed Products Pro ::
?>
then the product image doesn't even show at the product page... Not sure what I am doing wrong.

Re: Tabbed Products Pro (TPP) Contrib - Official Thread
Hi all. I'm hoping someone can help me with a few little changes. Here's my site: http://www.thesweettease.com I've just installed TPP and I love it right out of the box! A few things that would get the look perfect for me is:
1) How can I center the main content (image, title, price) on the page above the tabs?
2) How can I move the product options to the center of the page below the tabs with the add to cart button centered below it?
3) How can I remove the quantity box from the add to cart button? I just want the button by itself. I've set admin/configurations/product listing/display multiple products qty box and set button location to 0 but the quantity box still displays.
4) How can I remove the write a review button from the area underneath the tabs by the product options? I want the write a review button to display on the review tab only.
Thanks in advance for any help I can get!

Re: Tabbed Products Pro (TPP) Contrib - Official Thread
Better yet... is it possible for me to leave the main content (image, title, price) where it is and move the product options and add to cart button up next to it?

In the file includes/templates/your_template_name/templates/tpl_product_info_display.php
Find this block of code and move it to after what you want to show above the tabs.
Code:
<?php
//BOF :: Tabbed Products Pro ::
echo '<div id="tpptabBlock" style="display:none;">' . $tabData . '</div>';
//EOF :: Tabbed Products Pro ::
?>
For example, if you want the tabs to start after your product attributes, place it after you see
<!--eof Attributes Module-->
hope that helps!

Thanks, that helped a lot! Now if I could just figure out how to get the attributes and add to cart centered on the page under the price.

My suggest is to leave the TPP code where it is and move the other product info code instead.. While it sounds like I am saying the same thing you did, my concern is that a newbie might inadvertently mess up the TPP code by moving messing with it..

You might try posting this question in a new thread.. Your questions are really more about formatting the product information page and really are TPP support questions..
After adding the tabs, most other changes to the product information page are about modifying the includes/templates/your_template_name/templates/tpl_product_info_display.php and CSS changes to achieve whatever look it is that you are after..

I'm not sure why you are manually editing the product info page.. the TPP fileset includes a file that is already modified.. If your product information page is modified, then use a file merging program to merge in the TPP edits. If you are making these edits manually, then you need to check your edits..

Re: Tabbed Products Pro (TPP) Contrib - Official Thread
I am not actually manually editing the file. I loaded all the files per the read me. When I load the tpl_product_info_display.php file from the TPP file set, then the products do NOT display on the product page anymore.
I then tried winmerge to merge my original file and that gave the same result.
Then per the read me I tried to manually edit MY tpl_product_info_display.php file. and I noticed that when this code is added then the products do NOT appear anymore on the actual product page.
<?php

require(DIR_WS_MODULES . 'tabbed_products_pro.php');

If by "the products do NOT display on the product page anymore" you mean you get a blank page, then you need to check your error logs and see what error you are getting.. Honestly this sounds like an installation/configuration issues and without more information like an error log message I don't know how to help here..

Re: Getting Tabbed Products Pro to work with Ultimate Cross Sell
I have just succeeded in getting the Cross Sell tab of Tabbed Products Pro to work with Ultimate Cross Sell rather than the original Cross Sell mod.
It may not the best way to do it but it as I don't claim to be a skilled PHP coder, just someone who can hack existing code to get the result needed.
In includes\modules\tabbed_products_pro.php
I replaced:
PHP Code:
//Check if CrossSell contrib is installed and enabled to create its tab data
if (file_exists(DIR_WS_MODULES . 'xsell_products.php') or file_exists(DIR_WS_MODULES . $template_dir . '/' . 'xsell_products.php')) {
$bCrossSell_Tab = strpos($proddata, "<!--#CrossSell#-->");
if ($bGblCrossSell_Tab == true && $IgnoreGlobals === false) {
$bCrossSell_Tab = 1;
}
} else {
$bCrossSell_Tab = 0;
}
With:
PHP Code:
//Check if CrossSell contrib is installed and enabled to create its tab data
if (file_exists(DIR_WS_MODULES . 'ultimate_cross_sell_products.php') or file_exists(DIR_WS_MODULES . $template_dir . '/' . 'ultimate_cross_sell_products.php')) {
$bCrossSell_Tab = strpos($proddata, "<!--#CrossSell#-->");
if ($bGblCrossSell_Tab == true && $IgnoreGlobals === false) {
$bCrossSell_Tab = 1;
}
} else {
$bCrossSell_Tab = 0;
}
And further down around line 211
replaced this:
PHP Code:
if ($bCrossSell_Tab != 0) {
$xsell_query = $db->Execute("select distinct p.products_id, p.products_image, pd.products_name
from " . TABLE_PRODUCTS_XSELL . " xp, " . TABLE_PRODUCTS . " p, " . TABLE_PRODUCTS_DESCRIPTION . " pd
where xp.products_id = '" . $_GET['products_id'] . "'
and xp.xsell_id = p.products_id
and p.products_id = pd.products_id
and pd.language_id = '" . $_SESSION['languages_id'] . "'
and p.products_status = 1
order by xp.sort_order asc limit " . MAX_DISPLAY_XSELL);
$num_products_xsell = $xsell_query->RecordCount();
if ($num_products_xsell != 0) {
$tabstrip .= "\n" . '<li><a href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="expandcontent(\'sc'.$g.'\', this)"><span>'.$cross_sell_tab_name.'</span></a></li>' . "\n";
$g++;
}
}
With this:
PHP Code:
if ($bCrossSell_Tab != 0) {
$xsell_query = $db->Execute("select distinct p.products_id, p.products_image, pd.products_name
from " . ultimate_cross_sell_2 . " xp, " . TABLE_PRODUCTS . " p, " . TABLE_PRODUCTS_DESCRIPTION . " pd
where xp.products_id = '" . $_GET['products_id'] . "'
and xp.cross_sell_id = p.products_id
and p.products_id = pd.products_id
and pd.language_id = '" . $_SESSION['languages_id'] . "'
and p.products_status = 1
order by xp.sort_order asc limit " . MAX_DISPLAY_CROSS_SELL2);
$num_products_xsell = $xsell_query->RecordCount();
if ($num_products_xsell != 0) {
$tabstrip .= "\n" . '<li><a href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="expandcontent(\'sc'.$g.'\', this)"><span>'.$cross_sell_tab_name.'</span></a></li>' . "\n";
$g++;
}
}
And finally (for this file), around line 337 replaced:
PHP Code:
// Pre-load Cross Sell
if ($bCrossSell_Tab != 0 && $num_products_xsell != 0) {
ob_start();
require($template->get_template_dir('tpl_modules_xsell_products.php', DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'templates'). '/' . 'tpl_modules_xsell_products.php');
$fmtXSL .= ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
$fmtXSL = str_replace('class="centerBoxWrapper"', '', $fmtXSL);
if ($bShowHeaders != true) {
$fmtXSL = str_replace('class="centerBoxHeading"', 'class="centerBoxHeading" style="display: none;"', $fmtXSL);
}
}
With this:
PHP Code:
// Pre-load Cross Sell
if ($bCrossSell_Tab != 0 && $num_products_xsell != 0) {
ob_start();
require($template->get_template_dir('tpl_modules_ultimate_cross_sells.php', DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'templates'). '/' . 'tpl_modules_ultimate_cross_sells.php');
$fmtXSL .= ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
$fmtXSL = str_replace('class="centerBoxWrapper"', '', $fmtXSL);
if ($bShowHeaders != true) {
$fmtXSL = str_replace('class="centerBoxHeading"', 'class="centerBoxHeading" style="display: none;"', $fmtXSL);
}
}
This when combined with enabling: TPP - Global Cross Sell Tab in Admin > Configure > Tabbed Products Pro seemed to do everything required EXCEPT the javascript bit to hide the original block and display the new tabbed version.
So on checking /includes/templates/classic/jscript/jscript_tpp.js I noted that it was looking for id "crossSell" to disable and then enabling crossSell_tab instead.
Ultimate Cross Sell uses a number after it's ID's, the box that I was using was the Upsell which I found was called crossSell2 when I checked the HTML code for a page on the live site:
HTML Code:
<!-- bof: tpl_modules_ultimate_cross_sell_products -->
<div class="centerBoxWrapper" id="crossSell2">
So my first attempt was obviously to edit jscript_tpp.js at lines 95:
Code:
hackArr[6] = document.getElementById('crossSell');
and 110:
Code:
NewArr[6] = document.getElementById('crossSell_tab');
to "crossSell2"
To my frustration this didn't work, I think it's to do with the fact that tpl_modules_ultimate_cross_sell_products.php appends the number at run time to the title.
So for me, where I only use one cross sell centreBox (I won't work properly if you have two, for example a cross sell and upsell) I did the quick and dirty fix of renaming the title on the cross sell template as follows:
Edit /includes/templates/classic/templates/tpl_modules_ultimate_cross_sell_products.php and change:
PHP Code:
<!-- bof: tpl_modules_ultimate_cross_sell_products -->
<div class="centerBoxWrapper" id="crossSell<?php echo $cross_sell ?>">
to:
PHP Code:
<!-- bof: tpl_modules_ultimate_cross_sell_products -->
<div class="centerBoxWrapper" id="crossSell">
Now it works perfectly for me. As I say the caveat is that if you use the ultimate cross sell mod to show multiple centre boxes that would normally have ID's crossSell1 crossSell2 etc this hack will call them all just crossSell and I don't know how the tab system will then show them, if at all, but it will work if you only use a single crossSell centre box (you can still show mutliple cross sell/upsell side boxes, this only affects the centre boxes.)
Hope this is of help.

Re: Getting Tabbed Products Pro to work with Ultimate Cross Sell
Forgot to say, the way I've explained it it only works if you have "Upsells" defined.
In my second edit:
PHP Code:
if ($bCrossSell_Tab != 0) {
$xsell_query = $db->Execute("select distinct p.products_id, p.products_image, pd.products_name
from " . ultimate_cross_sell_2 . " xp, " . TABLE_PRODUCTS . " p, " . TABLE_PRODUCTS_DESCRIPTION . " pd
<SNIP>
I'm specifically checking the Upsell table: ultimate_cross_sell_2
Check: ultimate_cross_sell_1 if you want to show Cross Sells or ultimate_cross_sell_3 to show Related Products.
Making it work with all 3 at once isn't something I need to do so haven't tried.

Re: Tabbed Products Pro (TPP) Contrib - Official Thread
I am setting up a new site, and for the life of me I can't remember how I got the "Additional Images" to display on two lines instead of one. It looks bad on one line when other tabs I have set up of multiple words are on two lines. Can anyone help?
Thank you

Re: Tabbed Products Pro (TPP) Contrib - Official Thread
This is a great mod! Thanks so much!
I do have a question: is it possible to create hyperlinks to switch between the tabs?
Customers new to the website have a hard time seeing that there are tabs to select from. They will often read the "Product Description" tab for additional info and not realise that answers to some of their product questions can be found under the additional tabs, purely, because they don't see them.
I was wondering if a "hyperlink" can be created when reading info on the "Product Description" tab that will automatically switch the reader to one of the additional info tabs?
I was hoping to acheive something like this in the "Product Description" tab:
"Product xyz comes in additional sizes, please review (insert hyperlink code) additional info on sizing tab </a>."

I am not sure it's what you are looking for, but did you try:
Admin> Configuration> Images> Product Info - Number of Additional Images Per Row
It's what I always use :)

Re: Tabbed Products Pro (TPP) Contrib - Official Thread
I want the same thing. I think this is what they're wanting. a bookmark on the page. for instance, when you are looking at the product description, it would be nice to be able to make the tab a hyperlink/bookmark, so the description could say something like click here for more info instead of "for more info, go to the top of page and click the "....tab". Make sense?

Yeap - just like that - an anchor bookmark! Totally forgot that's what they were called! Is this possible with Tabbed Products Pro?
Seriously, I have spoken to so many people who re-read the product description back to you over the phone and can not find the tabs. I have given exact directions on how to find them too :)

Seriously, I have spoken to so many people who re-read the product description back to you over the phone and can not find the tabs. I have given exact directions on how to find them too :)
It's software I'm sure it is possible and perhaps someone will share how to do this if they have the answer.. (Off the top of my head I don't know the answer..)
My suggestion though is that if the tabs are not obvious, then perhaps you need to look at the layout of the product page with the tabs in place.. As many times as i have used this add-on, I am trying to imagine how one would NOT see the tabs, and the only thing that makes sense is that the product page layout might need some re-vamping...

I haven't installed this mod yet (not the new one) but had it on a previous store years back and had the same issue, is there still a way to change the look of the tabs? I mean make them a different color where they stand out more to catch the customers attention?

The ability to change the look of the tabs has ALWAYS been part of this add-on..
qhome (the orignal author) answers this on page one of this support thread. It's never been included in the readme (the current readme is pretty much qhome's original readme), but as I make a habit of reviewing all of my add-on files in detail it was always pretty obvious to me how to change the look. One of thezse days when I have time, I'll add a quick line to the readme about this..

There's a gazillion stylesheets/tab graphics that come with this add-on to support many different looks.. The stylesheet that is included calls the default silver look.. If you want a different look, simply change the stylesheet file to call one of these many included stylesheets.
OR
use the stylesheets as a guideline to create your own look..
qhome included so many different options for the tabs that I've never NOT found a tab look/style that comes with this add-on that would not work with a site that I was building. However, for a site build I will be starting soon, I'm going to experiment with creating CSS3 styled tabs using gradients and/or rounded corners.

LOL! Yes I was wondering how the tabs couldn't be seen. Surprisingly, it's true. Tabbed information for product layout has become more of a modern feature that many shoppers are accustomed to. However, there are customers who are only used to the 2-dimensional product listing pages and for this demographic I would like to include hyperactive links.
I can try out a few bookmark anchors and see if they work - will post if I can get it to :)

I understand what you are saying. However I still maintain that this could probably be remedied by working on the page layout to make it more difficult for customers to miss the tabs. I have never had this issue on any site I've used TPP on, but I believe that this is in part because as of late, I also do not merely use the default product info layout with TPP. (which is what an out the box TPP install provides).
As a rule I restrict my implementations by only turning on tabs to the informational aspects of the product (description, info, reviews) and exclude the transactional aspects (choose options, add-to-cart, upsell). There is one caveat for me with regard to the upsell tabs ("Customers Also Purchased" or "Cross Sell"). Though there are some who will disagree with me on this aspect, I do not think it's "wrong" necessarily to include the upsell aspects of the product info page in tabs. If the average product description is fairly lengthy, I think it's easy to miss the upsell sections. So depending on the number of upsell items and the average length of the client's product descriptions I may or may not include upsell items in tabs..
After that I do make sure that the transactional aspects (choose options, add-to-cart, upsell) are in a prominent location on the product info page (above the tabs). Modifying the product info page is pretty simply and there are lots of topics that discuss ad-nausea how to do it on this forum. The thing that you have to be mindful of when modifying the location of page aspects is the tabbed code and knowing where aspects of the page are in relation to the tabs. (easy to spot the tabbed code so if one is careful, this should not be an issue) After that it's a matter of CSS to help with look/feel, alignment and placement refinements.
Dunno what your product pages look like, but if they are using the default TPP layout this might be a contributing factor to your customer's having difficulty with with seeing the tabs.. Perhaps you might want to think about re-evaluating your product page layout..

This is an old post, but I am quoting it because this is a layout that I will be experimenting with using TPP.. This layout is entirely possible if you know how to manipulate the product page layout elements and you know how to use CSS to style and align page elements..
Here's another page layout example. A similar (not identical) layout can mostly be achieved with TPP (there are elements which can also be achieved but require more advance programming effort to achieve):
http://www.sears.com/kenmore-24-cu-f...&blockType=G20
Please note in each of these layouts IMHO it would be very difficult for customers to miss tabs. In the Sears example, note most transactional elements are not housed inside the tabs. I say most because the exception is clearly the upsell items. However, they are in the description tab just above the description text where they can be easily seen..
Again my point is that if those who use TPP stick to best practices for ecommerce and not put transactional elements into tabs, and then put some effort into making sure that the product page puts all the information where the customer will see it, that this will lend to a better user experience.

Sorry, I was not clear. I need the TEXT "Additional Images" to appear on two lines. I tried adding a line break in
define('TEXT_TAB_TITLE_ADDITONAL_IMAGES', 'Additional Images');
That didn't work. In fact, any changes I make to the text, including the words, of the tabs is ignored completely.
I can't figure out what else is controlling it, but it looks really bad to have a tab that is longer thank the others, which are hard coded in the product description and appear on two lines.

I sure have! But when I change ANY of the text in /includes/languages/english/extra_definitions nothing happens! Currently the line reads:
define('TEXT_TAB_TITLE_ADDITONAL_IMAGES', 'Images');
and STILL the text appears as "Additional Images".
the /includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/tabbed_products_pro.php does not respond to any changes I make.
I have fiddled with the css files to try to force a line break using word-break property and had no luck there either.
The problem is that I have several custom tags, most of the two words. Those tags split because I coded them to do so in the product description. It looks bad to have some split and others not.
You can see the problem here:

Well I have fixed it, more or less, by tweaking the tpp css file:
#slidetabsmenu a span {
padding:5px 10px 4px 6px;
width: 60px;
height: 30px;
}
The only problem with this is that if I add any new tabs or change the words I will have to reset it.
I still don't know why I could NOT change the tab text in the definitions file. If anyone has any ideas it would be great to know.
Thanks!

Not straight away.
It will require modifying TPP a fair bit to get it to work.
Others have attempted it with little reported success.

This is the wrong support thread. This is the Tabbed Products Pro add-on.. You are using a different tab mod for your home page.. You need to post your question in the support thread for that add-on.

Re: Tabbed Products Pro (TPP) Contrib - Official Thread
Hi:
I have done a complete rebuild of my site using version 1.5. I have installed the latest version of Tabbed Products Pro with Image Handler 4 and the Cross Sell Plus Advanced Sell Combo.
This is working great and I really like the look and functionality of the page.
My issue is this: When I tried to add an additional image it does not show. The image is there according to Image Handler and I have the Global Additional Images tab set to 1.
I have only a couple of products with additional images so far. One page is http://www.poolcuesexpressdotcom/ind...roducts_id=193
Any help pointing me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

Not sure your issue has anything to do with this mod.. You can confirm this by turning off TPP.. I suspect that your additional images will still not show..
-
Re: Tabbed Products Pro (TPP) Contrib - Official Thread
OK. I never thought to try that.
When I turn Global Tabs to OFF the additional image still does not show.
Does that mean I have a problem in the tpl_product_info_display.php?
I never used additional images before and I never paid much attention to where it was positioned in the file. The Additional images code is in between the 2 Tabbed Products Pro code snippets.
Thanks for your help.

Re: Tabbed Products Pro (TPP) Contrib - Official Thread
This plugin works great for me, except for one thing. When I installed it, my additional images disappeared and didn't come up on a tab of their own. I've checked, and additional images are turned on for my site - I've also tried using the <!--#AdditionalImages#--> tag in my product description, but it doesn't work.
check out http://www.matrixbicycles.com//index...products_id=85 to see what I mean. Any help or suggestions are SO appreciated. If I can get this to work then my site is basically done!! Thanks in advance! (except for filling in copy, etc..)

The global additional images tab works out the box.. So check your install and make sure you have the global additional images tab turned on (there is no need for creating a custom additional images tab). After that you need to check that another add-on you installed which modifies the same files as TPP did not muck something up..
Also this mod has not been checked for v1.5.1 compatibility and I don't know if that's a factor or not..

Re: Tabbed Products Pro (TPP) Contrib - Official Thread
Thanks for the quick reply! Global additional images is turned on, and I haven't added other addons. The other out of the box tabs like details & reviews turn on automatically, but no luck with additional images. Any ideas on what I could try to change to get this to work? This tabbed solution is exactly what I need, and all I need now is to get the additional images to show..

Do additional images work with the tabs turned off??
Are you using v1.5.1?? This mod has not been checked for v1.5.1 compatibility and I don't know if that's a factor or not.. It works perfectly with v1.5.0.

Re: Tabbed Products Pro (TPP) Contrib - Official Thread
additional images do work if I disable tabbed pro. I would try going back to 1.5.0, but I'm such a newb at this that I'm afraid of wrecking all the work I've done so far..The work around I came up with is a flickr gallery embedded on a tab that I named 'more images'. If you'd like to see how it looks, here is the link:
http://www.matrixbicycles.com//index...products_id=85
One other question - is there a simple way to change the name of the attributes tab to something else? I know the change may be totally obvious to you, but I'm not sure how to do it. I want the attributes tab to be called product options, or something a little more clear that it needs to be configured before a customer purchases the product.

Re: Tabbed Products Pro (TPP) Contrib - Official Thread
I just installed TPP and it has worked ok apart from my main image has disappeared.
When I click on the additional images, there are 2 of them, I use the lightbox plugin and I see 2 of 3. The 3rd image is always the missing main image within lightbox (3 of 3).
I also had to remove the additional images from the bottom of the tpl_product_info_display.php as they appeared twice so it was showing 5 images in lightbox.
I tried moving my main image within the tpl_product_info_display.php but it still won't appear. The only way I can get it to appear is to copy it in twice, I'm sure why that works but now it still shows the missing main image within the lightbox as image 4 of 4 (The 1st being the main image I added, and the 2nd and 3rd being the additional images.)
Does anyone know a way I can fix this?

Sounds like the issue is LESS of an issue with this mod and more of an issue with the lightbox add-on.. Suggest posting your issues in that support thread.. You'll also want to check any file merges you might have done to install these two mods.. Dunno off the top of my head if the lightbox add-on has files in common with TPP.. But if they do, you'll want to check those file merges..

Re: Tabbed Products Pro (TPP) Contrib - Official Thread
This is a great addition. Thanks.
On my site it does something a little odd. When you load the page it starts about an inch above where I have placed it. Then after that second it moves to where it is supposed to. I thought maybe it was the share/like buttons I have at the top, but I removed them to test it and it still did this.
Does anyone know a solition to this? Here is one place I am using it: http://www.toolsforchrist.com/index....&products_id=1

And you know this add-on is the source because you of course tested you product page with TPP turned off right???
That said you have other stuff loading on your product pages beside the TPP add-on.. It is likely one of these which is clashing with TPP.. (javascript conflict probably)

Yes, it works fine with TPP turned off. Javascript is used for the zoom and slider on the pictures. Can Javascript be called too much and slow things down? Should I be minimizing javascript calls? Is there a way to fix this type of thing?
Thanks for your fast response.

Thanks for your fast response.
Yes the number of scripts you have loading/running most certainly could hamper page load/performance. So you will need to look at the many javascripts executed on your product pages and narrow down the reason why they are not playing together nicely and causing the page load response you are seeing.. This really isn't the right thread to get that sorted out as it's not specifically related to TPP.. Suggest starting a new thread and see if other members of the community can help you get this all straightened out.

Hi,
I've tried to add a global tab as-per the instructions in the docs folder but after adding the three edits to the includes/modules/tabbed_products_pro.php file, my product info page crashes :(
My (zipped) edited tabbed_products_pro.php is attached.
Anyone have any ideas where I'm going wrong?
Thanks :smile:

Re: Tabbed Products Pro (TPP) Contrib - Official Thread
Hi
I am getting duplicate descriptions on my listings.
It is showing the description in tabs then the same underneath.
I have all 3 blocks of code in the tpl_product_info_display.php. I have tried various variations with the tags, start tag-end tag, only end tag, only start tag, no tags. Nothing seems to work.
http://www.biriecig.co.uk/index.php?...&products_id=7 for an example.
Has anybody got any ideas please.
Regards
Mike

Hi
I found out what was causing it, I had changed the name of the products description CSS from <div id="productDescription" to <div id="productDescription2" when I
changed it back it worked fine.

Re: Tabbed Products Pro (TPP) Contrib - Official Thread
I may have found the solution to my product page crashing after attempting to add a global tab...
In the "TPP - Adding Global Tabs" tutorial, specifically the "Tab pre-load section", it says to add the following code:
PHP Code:
// Pre-load Warranty
$fmtShipEst = "\n" . '<div style="width:100%;">' . "\n";
$fmtShipEst .= "This is warranty information for our products. We want you to know that our products have a 100% guarantee."
$fmtShipEst .= "Thank you for shopping with us. If you have any questions, call us at 1-800-111-2222."
$fmtShipEst .= "\n" . '</div>'. "\n\n";
I've changed the above code to the following (note the two additional semicolons at the end of the third and fourth lines):
PHP Code:
// Pre-load Warranty
$fmtShipEst = "\n" . '<div style="width:100%;">' . "\n";
$fmtShipEst .= "This is warranty information for our products. We want you to know that our products have a 100% guarantee.";
$fmtShipEst .= "Thank you for shopping with us. If you have any questions, call us at 1-800-111-2222.";
$fmtShipEst .= "\n" . '</div>'. "\n\n";
My global tab seems to be working now. I'd appreciate it if someone who is PHP knowledgeable could confirm that the changes detailed above are ok, if possible. I think this may help a few people out in the future.
Thanks :smile:

Thanx in advance.

Re: Tabbed Products Pro (TPP) Contrib - Official Thread
I've just installed TPP on the website I'm currently building but I cannot get the tabs to show. I'm using Zencart v1.5 but I a very new to this so would appreciate any help in very simple terms!
One tab should show on this page:
http://thestaircasepeople.co.uk/inde...&products_id=2
TPP is listed on the Configuration heading and I've configured it to show on the pages in the right place but - no luck. I know that this is probably something very simple and I have been through many pages of this thread but can't find a solution.
Any help please?

Don't see any of the code required for the tabs to show which tells me you don't have this installed correctly.. Suggest re-reading the readme file and check you installation again..

Thank you for the advice. I'll check it all again.
But - there is one point that I'm unsure about in the instructions and please forgive me if this is a really basic stupid question. The instruction: To repeat the installation for any reason, login to your store's admin area, re-upload the YOUR_ADMIN/includes/auto_loaders & YOUR_ADMIN/includes/init_includes folders, then click any link to trigger the installer.
I don't know what you mean by "click any link" to trigger the installer. Can you talk me through this in easy steps please? Sorry, to be an idiot but I am learning!:unsure:

From memory, just clicking anything in admin is enough to get the thing processing. (easier than you'd be thinking)
Obviously will only process if it's installed properly though.

Re: Tabbed Products Pro (TPP) Contrib - Official Thread
Thank you all for your help and advice. For some reason, some of the files did not get copied over (probably my mistake), and I've been through them with a fine tooth comb. Now all loaded up and working well and it looks great!
Thanks:hug:

Re: Tabbed Products Pro (TPP) Contrib - Official Thread
Hi, I'm wondering the same thing... I've upgraded ZC to 1.5.1, and then upgraded TPP from 1.07 to 1.09. I've run the uninstall.sql. Carefully removed the 1.07 files, uploaded the 1.09 files. Double checked the product info php (changes made for 1.07 stay the same). Clicked many links in the install. Now my tabs everything is completely ignoring the settings on the TPP Config page... the tabs are at the top, I can't switch off the Add to Cart tab, etc. None of the changes seem to work. Even after I ran the uninstall.sql my TPP Config page was still there. Is there some way I can get this back to what I had?

You can rollback to your backup (I assume you did backup before installing right??) The install is pretty straight forward if you have all the right files in the correct locations then this should work just fine..

Making tabs for some products and not others
Ok I can't find the answer to my question. Its probably here somewhere already so forgive me if I repeat it my eyes are blurry after following about 80 pages of this.
1. I have zencart 1.3.9f
2. have installed the version 1.07
It works fine If I have the admin set to global enable tabs on. Then all the products descriptions have tabs on.
Maybe I misunderstand but I thought I could set that to off and then control individually which products have tabs and which ones don't simply by using the tags on a product by product description level, insuring I am using the text editor and not the html editor when I build the product description.
However if I set global enable tabs to off then individually take a product description and use the tags, eg, <!--%Product Description%--> nothing happens.

Re: Making tabs for some products and not others
Hi
I have found this add on and found it to suite my needs very well ..
I have just 2 questions to ask
1 how do you change the colour of the black bar ..I just can't seem to find out
2 I am wanting to use cross sell but even though I have options available they are not showing up .. I have even gone as far as using the edit on page 183 which didn't work for me ..
using 1.5 with TPP 1.09 with cross sell enabled
any help appreciated please
thanks

Re: Making tabs for some products and not others
Hi,
I need to control the visibility of a lot of attributes in order to build a product. There are too many for just one attributes tab -- things get confusing, and choices should be made in a certain order to be sensible. (But no, these aren't dependant attributes.) Is it possible in TPP to define groups of attributes, each group in its own tab?
If not, can anyone suggest a mod which will do this? It doesn't have to be horizontal tabs. It could be those vertical-reveal kind of sliders.
Thanks for any help or suggestions you can offer.

Re: Making tabs for some products and not others
OK I have been playing around and I can get the Zen Tags example to work ..But still have no idea how to get the cross sell to work correctly .
Please can I have some help
would like to active a box for cross sell , like to add some text to attributes box , customers who viewed customers who bought and shipping info
a step by step dummies guide would be nice
example for cross sell do we use links(ie www.), models numbers, comma's
thanks

Still being monitored.. but when no one posts an answer it may simply mean we don't have an answer to give..

I'm sure this is possible with custom coding, but not out the box functionality..

Re: Making tabs for some products and not others
Ok thanks
I have another thread on this and eventually found 1 of my problems with global editing..here it is too
I got local help from someone else .For anyone else who wonders why the global editing doesn't work there are "quotes missing" at the end of each sentence on the middle coding with the instructions
see here
includes/ modules
Quote:
// Pre-load Warranty
$fmtShipEst = "\n" . '<div style="width:100%;">' . "\n";
$fmtShipEst .= "This is warranty information for our products. We want you to know that our products have a 100% guarantee." ; (here)
$fmtShipEst .= "Thank you for shopping with us. If you have any questions, call us at 1-800-111-2222." ; (here)
$fmtShipEst .= "\n" . '</div>'. "\n\n";
SO what you are saying is cross sell doesn't work yet

I will update the instructions to include the missing semicolons. I'll submit an update in a week or two.. I've updated this module so that the javascript and stylesheet only load on the product pages..

Not saying that at all.. I don't use the cross sell modules with this module so I can't help.. Others here have reported that they have gotten cross sell to work for them. There are a quite few posts in this thread where others have documented how they achieved that.. I can only suggest searching for cross-sell posts and seeing if any of them provide you the information you need.

Re: Tabbed Products Pro (TPP) Contrib - Official Thread
I can create new fields for entering more product information. For example, warranty. If I add a field for warranty in the admin and a storage field for it in products table. then call it into tpl_product_info_display.php how do I get that to land on the details tab? I've already done some testing where I create a new < li > in the bof_details section but it's omitted unless JS is disabled... Thanks, John

Re: Tabbed Products Pro (TPP) Contrib - Official Thread

Re: Tabbed Products Pro (TPP) Contrib - Official Thread
Hi thanks ..yeah I tried those posts and it don't work for me .. I retried them a few times and always end up with a blank page.
It's no biggy as they sit at the bottom of the page but would prefer all my cross sells to be in a tab ... I may have to start again anyway as I seem to have lost my model numbers etc tab
Will check for the updated version
thanks again

When you get the blank page, that means you will have an error log that may give you the clue you need to get this working..

Re: Tabbed Products Pro (TPP) Contrib - Official Thread
tried it again .. post #1821
it actually didn't break the page ..Just nothing happened ...
If you are updating the add on I'll just have to wait patiently until you manage to correct it
I also noticed the last section was different to mine was
tpl_modules_multi_xsell_products.php
ConsultMe was
tpl_modules_ultimate_cross_sell_products.php
So looks like a different add on

they are two different add-ons and TPP was only integrated. With one by the original author. My update doesn't deal with integration of any of the cross sell modules.. I'm only addressing updates to the readme and configuring TPP to use product page specific JS and CSS (versus loading the TPP javascipt and stylesheets on every page)..

Okay.. let me REALLY clarify my answer.. ATSWorld what you have been doing won't work because the "fixes" you found posted in this forum are for a different cross sell module than the one you are using. You cannot apply those "fixes" to a different cross sell module. To answer your earlier question, yes TPP works with two cross sell modules that I am aware of. One is integrated with TPP and the other requires some modifications to TPP that a community member generously shared with the community.
There are SEVERAL cross sell modules in the free downloads.. They do not all work with TPP out the box. The most recently up to date ones are:
Cross Sell Plus Advanced Sell Combo
Ultimate Cross Sell for Zen Cart
Multi Cross Sell
When qhome last updated TPP, I believe it was one of these modules that TPP was integrated with:
Cross Sell Advanced
Cross-Sell
Neither of these modules has been updated since 2007/2008, BUT Cross Sell Advance Sell Combo (based on reports here and looking at the TPP code) SHOULD work with TPP.
That said, here's information regarding using Ultimate Cross Sell and Multi Cross Sell with TPP (found in this support thread):
The next TPP update will NOT include any cross sell updates because the original TPP cross sell code should still work with Cross Sell Advance Sell Combo. (in other words it's not broken -- it just requires modifications to work with the other cross sell modules) I will include links to the instructions from this forum on how to integrate TPP with Ultimate Cross Sell in the readme, and if anyone wants to contribute instructions for TPP integration with Multi Cross Sell, I will include that as well.
Hopefully this should cover all the cross sell questions..
