The product_free_shipping_info page displays the Free shipping icon and the New, Features and All listing shows the Free Shipping icon ...

There are no physical database differences to Product Free Shipping ... this is all controlled by the products_type field in the products table which is set to 5 for Product Free Shipping ...

I have my downloadable products category set as FSP.

Well if its a completely new product type then that will have to wait. I need to do the music one still for BlessIsacola and I will be gone on vacation for 9 days starting in a couple hours. so hopefully you have no major problems with the contrib. :)

Ill see you all in the future!

My "free shipping" downloadable eBooks and eDocs display fine with TabbedLite installed (as Q shows on his demo).

I am using same product type, "Product - General", for all my products including eBooks and eDocs.

(Among other things the "Product - Free Shipping" product type enables "Always Free Shipping" radio button option whan adding a new product).

For this to work "Product - Free Shipping" must be set as as subtype of "Product - General". And this is how Zen Cart should be setup by default.

To check see Admin > Catalog > Product Types > "Product - Free Shipping"

I'm not sure what "FSP" is.

Free Shipping Product.

This may be off topic...

For those fond of the Ask A Question (AAQ) mod, there was a new version uploaded to ZC downloads area on July 11 ("Other Modules" category). It is more efficiently designed mod than previous (no need for additional DB entries, etc).

But as such it works a bit differently (that is the code entered into the product_info template file is different from the previous version). So this maybe throwing some people off on making previous version of AAQ work with latest Tabbed Lite, like it did me, until I found out about the new AAQ version.

Also for a patch see the thread at http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?p=237138

Also note the new version AAQ does not come with the graphic button the previous version did. Unfortunatele the old version is no longer available on ZC downloads. So I will see if I can scavenge the button and provide to Scott to update the code to render a button instead of text.

Back to your regular TabbedLite programming...

Aha that would explain a lot.. as it seemed so easy for me to add it but thats cuz i was using the simple link version. Never tried the other one. Good find Woody!

I have installed TPL3.11 FINAL on fresh install Zen Cart 1.3.0.2
Everything good. So doing some basic experimenting.

On my test product I have product description entered normal Zen Cart way, no tags.
I have not changed any TPL settings at top of template file.

So I have:

$bGblAddToCart = true;

One single tab appears with only theAdd To Cart button. However the Product Details (e.g. model name) does not appear on the tab. Rather it appears above the tabs. I understood this version would by default place Product Details on same tab as the Add To Cart button?

Or maybe I am missing understanding how the Globals are suppose to work and I have to manually add a tag?

No, they should appear below the product name and price. It looks better, and makes more sense. :yes:

* Shifted the tables with the add to cart button and quantity discount table to make it look better. (thanks ideasgirl, IntelCos, and others)
* fixed a small bug related to having the add to cart tab by itself.
* added a line of logic to the javascript file to adapt to the IgnoreGlobals feature to prevent javascript errors
* Moved Product Details under the Price. This seems a good out of the way, yet informative place for this info.
* Cleaned up a lot of comments.
* Revamped the readme file.
* MADE SURE THAT CROSSSELL WAS SET TO FALSE

Of course this is a subjective opinion. ;-)

A. I guess my inquiry below is misunderstood. What I was trying to say is I thought the product name and price, product details and the the add to cart were all suppose to appear on one tab if the following was set to true:

Quote:

---

$bGblMainImageOnTabs = true; // adds Main image to tabs only if you have at least one custom tab

$bGblAddToCart = true; // adds Add to Cart, Product Details, Attribute Options, and Qty Discount to a tab

---

However this does not appear to consistently apply?

I have two test products.

1. Product one description in admin shows:

<!--%Product Description%-->
blah, blah

The actual product info page shows two tabs with everything correctly on the "Product Description" tab. (but shows no products on the "We Also Recommend" tab when it should show one product).

2. Product two description in admin has no tags. Just a short text string.

The actual product info page shows two tabs. The first tab labeled "add to cart" shows the add to cart box but nothing else.

The container for the second tab "We Also Recommend" is empty, but should display one product.

I understood the Global settings above would be in effect and place the product name and price, product details and product description on the first tab. But this is not the case?

I do see in the comments the "adds Main image to tabs only if you have at least one custom tab" so since I do not have a custom tab the product image should stays above the tabs, as it does. But I do not understand why the other items do not render on the tab, with global setting as it is?

So it appears that I have to add the <!--%Product Description%--> in every products description. Again I thought I would not need to do this with the new Global feature.

B. And here are my cross sell settings:

Quote:

---

$bCrossSell_Exists = true; // if you have cross sell contrib installed, this enables the code to check for it.

$bGblCrossSell_Tab = true; // adds Cross Sell as its own tab only if the above is true.

---

So unsure why cross sell products are not showing up. I do not have images uploaded for either of the two products. Could this be an issue? I would have thought at least "No picture available" along with product title would have displayed on the Cross Sell tab.

I admit I am confused.

Not if you don't have a custom tab created (that changed on previous version/update). See note on comments:

PHP Code:

---

$bGblMainImageOnTabs = false;  // adds Main image to tabs only if you have at least one custom tab

Ok...I left my previous answer for others benefit. What you mean? Do you mean you have custom tabs and they aren't showing?

Yes, because "Product Description" is a custom tab.

I don't know why they aren't working for you, they are working on my side. I made several tests (on, off, combined) and I'm not having problems with tabs content.

No wonder! This is a false comment:

PHP Code:

---

$bGblAddToCart =  true; // adds Add to Cart, Product Details, Attribute Options, and Qty Discount to a tab 


---

Should say:

PHP Code:

---

$bGblAddToCart = true; // adds Add to Cart, Attribute Options and Qty Discount to a tab
