Can anybody clarify on how to save a cross sell ?
Thank you

Are you getting an error message on the top line?

The default setup is to use product ID numbers separated by commas, NOT Model numbers
Unless you changed it in Admin->Configuration->Cross Sell Settings

Yes the documentation is a mish mash of old mod documentation and new mod documentation. Documentation is not what I do well.

Admin->Configuration->Cross Sell Settings

First i did change the setting to model number
Second, there are 2 fields that can have an entry
Product Cross Sell applies to:
Product model(s):
and

Edit Current Cross Sell
Product model:

there are also 3 buttons on the screen
Update
Insert
Search

That's it
Now when i enter a model number in the "Product Cross Sell applies to:" field with the insert button beside it

and a model number in the " Product model:" field with the search button beside it

No matter which button i select it does nopt save the cross sell and i have no idea as to how to save it.
I know the model numbers i enter are correct so i am at a loss here.
Like i said, there are no instructions on how to go about using this mod and it's certainly not self explanatory, so any help would be appreciated.
Also where are the instructions on how to edit the includes\languages\english\extra_definitions\YOUR_TEMPLATE\multi_xsell_box_defin es.php
and what do we edit ?

When you click either of these 3 buttons
You should get a message on the top line that is either success or error with some details of the error or results of the success
Are you getting these messages?

Assuming the entry is set to Model Number and the separater is a comma.
If you have 4 items to cross sell with Model numbers
790423 790444 790524AZ and 42786-40

You would type into the NEW cross sells box
790423,790444,790524AZ,42786-40
and press ENTER of click the INSERT button
You should then get a list of 12 success messages or some error messages at the top of the next page.

Are you receiving these messages????

you edit includes\languages\english\extra_definitions\YOUR_TEMPLATE\multi_xsell_box_defin es.php
on your computer and upload it to the correct position on your website.
This file contains a list of defines such as...

PHP Code:

---

define('TEXT_MXSELL1_PRODUCTS', 'Suggested Matching Items...');
define('TEXT_MXSELL2_PRODUCTS', 'We also Suggest...');
define('TEXT_MXSELL3_PRODUCTS', 'Suggested Cross Sell 3...');
define('TEXT_MXSELL4_PRODUCTS', 'Suggested Cross Sell 4...');
define('TEXT_MXSELL5_PRODUCTS', 'Suggested Cross Sell 5...');
define('TEXT_MXSELL6_PRODUCTS', 'Suggested Cross Sell 6...'); 


---

These are the headers that appear on the different cross sells. Edit them to what you want and upload it to your website.

WARNING: An Error occurred, please refresh the page and try again.

I refreshed my website again and again, it is always there.

I checked my database, the old tables are there, could you give me a sql to delete the old ones, so that i could install again

Is this a live website or is it on your computer?

Did you rename the YOUR_RENAMED_ADMIN directory to your admin name?

Did you rename the 3 YOUR_TEMPLATE directories to your template names before uploading to your website?

I deleted all table concerning multi cross sell, and re-install, the same warning info shown, and can not continue, when i change my browser to IE, there is a 500 error, no error info in cache directory

Hey gilby

i got the error info, just as following, please help me out, thanks a lot
