Dynamic Price Updater

Hi lesko

The dpu_ajax.php goes into the catalog root; dynamic_price_updater.php goes in includes/classes/; jscript_ajax_updater.php goes in includes/modules/pages/product_info/

If you've put those files in the correct places but the Updater doesn't work please send me a link and I'll check it out for you... This version of the Updater is still very new and relatively untested so apologies for any teething problems it may have

Cheers

Dan

Hi Dan

BRILLIANT! v2 appears to have sorted out my problems! Yay!

Many, many thanks,

Steve :)

Hi Steve

I'm glad it worked for you :smile:... V2 addresses quite a few issues that tripped up the original Updater

If I could put out a request for anyone using V2: Do you have Lightbox or Mootools installed? I had a weird issue the other day where Mootools was causing a conflict with the Updater so if anyone could test and report your findings I would be most grateful

Cheers

Dan

Hello there Dan,

I tried Version 2 yesterday, and it didn't work but I do have a variant on Lightbox. I have Highslide, and I know it works very similar. Could be that I reckon. Let me know if you require any more details.

I have v2 on a live test site with the regular lightbox using scriptaculous and prototype and it works without conflict. Will be adding it to the live site in a while if there are no other bug reports.

Thanks again, Dan!

Hi

Heathen: Thanks for testing... Would you, by any chance, have a URL for the failing Updater? If you like you can PM it to me... I do have a theory on why it isn't working and I'm going to create a version that should (hopefully!) increase the general compatibility

Matt: Thanks for testing (again!)... It's nice to know that the Updater works with Lightbox at least!

Thanks to all who are testing!

Dan

Hi,

Looks like I can actually post now, for some reason my ribbonsbaskets account was unable to create any new posts...strange

Any way created a new account so I can now respond.

First off, than you sooo much for this mod. Without it I don't think there are any other options!

I am having a problem with DPU2 now though, it was working seamlessly before I added some additional mods including JQLightbox, upgrading to PHP5, and added Tabbed Pro. Now DPU wont work.

Im using zen cart 1.3.8, link to a product with attributes: http://www.ribbonsbaskets.com/just-h....html?cPath=78

I know that the DIV the price needs to be properly entered in to the jscript_ajax_updater.php file. I did change it to the div the my price is nestled in. The price is actually in two divs. I wasn't sure if this was a problem so I removed the price from the div and just left it in its original div but it still didn't work. I then just put it back in to the div because without it things don't work right.

Lankeeyankee,
Just wondering if you have tested your site in Mozilla Firefox? Dan placed the Price Updater on my site and I had the Slimbox installed. Worked wonderful in IE however, in firefox, the price updater wouldn't work. I liked the Price Updater better than the Slimbox and got rid of Slimbox.

My reason for posting is this: The way I am reading your post, all works good together long as you use Lightbox correct? If this is the case, I am going to install the Lightbox.

Thanks,
Pkat

Lightbox is great, I love it...but I think many others have had problems with lightbox and DPU - like me.:smile:
