Write it yourself. Coming to a forum looking for a bootleg copy at a lower price and complaining because you can't get it just isn't right.
You asked ;-)
I don't think the OP was looking for a bootleg at all..
that said, I need to clarify my previous post..
What you say is fine and dandy for NEW customers.. but I do think that EXISTING Ceon customers do have some legit questions/concerns with the new structure (around pricing and upgrades, etc), and MY POST was based on that POV..:smile:
(and before it's asked.. yes I did express my questions/concerns to JSWeb -- I shared them because I know that I am not the only existing Ceon customer with these same questions/concerns)
Re: Looking to get CEON uri mappings manager?
Le sigh. Looks like they're now not only charging 270% of what Conor did (and their conversion rate to USD isn't right), but there's an annual £50 licensing fee.
F that. I want to support Conor's estate, if that's what the exorbitant cost goes toward, but not to the tune of that much. Conor wouldn't do that.
I'm just going to give JSWeb an evil glare, grumble, and take care of my cleanup via mysql queries.

And I have chosen to convert to USU.. I have no problem with paying for good mods, but legacy owners of this product who had access to unlimited updates all had to suck wind from the onset as we were all told that the license we THOUGHT we had was no longer going to be honored.. We had to BUY a new license (at TWICE the price) and "get over it".. No thank you.. :no: I'm good for now.. :laugh:

Be honest part of why the product available by searching on google for 'Easy Populate v4 with CEON URI Mapping' is available as it is right now is that with a little pickup in demand there is intention to support the estate if it can be identified. Call it "throwing back to the oldies" if you will, but seemed like there was a need to be filled to a personally acceptable extent...
Re: Looking to get CEON uri mappings manager?
It's open source and interacts with zen cart core code so it's gpl. Conor acknowledged this, and also acknowledged that the only part of his modules protected by copyright is the instructions/readme. I have the Advanced Shipper mod that has been updated to work with the latest USPS and FedEx API, I want to package it up to share but have neither the time nor inclination to rewrite the installation and configuration instructions as apparently JS owns or controls the copyright to them. I wouldn't have so much problem with the price except the code has been obfuscated so I can't alter it..... I absolutely hate that and will never support anything that obfuscates code.

So, I don't own the software myself but have seen the warnings posted. Not sure if it matters to you or not, but it is my understanding that if you were to post the code sans instructions it may be possible that future versions of the software may not be permitted to be purchased from them. As for the obfuscation of the code... It's a commercial module. I thought under at least one of the gpl licenses that the source code is required to be given or given upon request... I can't remember. Those issues though are between the vendor and the customer.
Re: Looking to get CEON uri mappings manager?
I am not seeing this plug anywhere online for purchase. Does anyone know where I can find this? I tried searching for JSWeb and I don't see a JSWeb with the plugin either.
Thank you.
Re: Looking to get CEON uri mappings manager?
The legal status of Advanced Shipper and URI Mappings Manager needs to be made clear so they can be made available.
Otherwise they will disappear completely or pop up unsupported by anyone on sharing sites and nothing will go to Conor's estate at all.
I don't think anyone here would be happy with either of those options.
Is anyone in a position to take this further with Conor's estate?

I've been using the EP4 plugin for Ceon... it takes care of the job, so....
