There are no plans to release any new versions in the future.

If anyone wants us to develop this functionality they'd have to cover the development costs.. If anyone else already has developed it, please just send me the new files and I'll test them, add them to and release a new version.

All the best...

I know that the PRODUCT_MUSIC_INFO just needs to be added to the observer since it's already part of the Zen Cart core. I was just pointing out the future update for those that may not be comfortable with messing with code in: includes/classes/observers/class.back_in_stock_notificationsProductInfo.php

Hmm...I just migrated this mod to our production environment and now questioning myself if there will be no future update (since once 1.4 is released this will probably become outdated).

Will send contribution once some of the quirks are worked out.

One nagging thing right now is if a product has a future date with zero quantity it looks funny displaying the future date and asking customers to pre-buy when Add to Cart button is disabled.

I understand completely but I just have other things to be doing at this time.

If Zen Cart totally changes in 1.4 then a new version may be released then. I wasn't saying that the module was unsupported, just that no new releases are planned as we don't have time to add extra features that not many people have requested (you're the second in total ;) )..

I'd like to take your word for that but I'm afraid experience here says otherwise! :(

Now I would call that particular problem a bug rather than a feature request. As such a new version will be released shortly with a fix for this! I may at that time also add support for product music types, I'll see how much time I have to spare.

All the best...

Yes this is a great mod and it helps out a lot like to say first great job on the mod.

I did see one thing though. I noticed that in the mod when it reaches zero in stock the notification comes up under the out of stock button. but say if it goes backwards say your stock says there is -1 in stock it does not show it is looking at it as if you do have stock.

My question would be how would you go about fixing this so the negitives do not make it look like it is in stock?
If the notfication does not show then how can people know to use it.

Second question in the form the confirm email box has this inside of it {cofnospam} how do i go about getting rid of that or is that normal?

Once again great mod thank you for putting it together.:bigups:

You're right! I'll create a new version which checks for stock less than or equal to zero rather than just 0.

I can release that shortly but in the meantime, if you like, you can change:

PHP Code:

---

$products_quantity == 0 


---

to

PHP Code:

---

$products_quantity <= 0 


---

in

\includes\classes\observers\class.back_in_stock_notificationsProductInfo.php

No, that was a bug in an earlier version. Download 2.2.2 at the following address to fix it:

http://dev.ceon.net/web/zen-cart/bac..._notifications

I guess I must have forgotten to update the download area!

I'll create a 2.2.3 and upload it, probably tomorrow.

All the best...

Hi,

Just checked and 2.2.2 is in the download area.

What version were/are you running?

The bug with cofnospam should be fixed in 2.2.1 and up!

All the best...

Conor

Hi Conor,

Im also using 2.2.2 and i still get the 'cofnospam' in that confirm email field. Its no big deal though for me and doesn't affect the working of the mod in any way. It's proving very popular with our customers.

That means that you haven't completed the upgrade to 2.2.2.

You must have missed updating the file

\includes\templates\YOUR_TEMPLATE\templates\tpl_product_info_display.php

You'll find a small difference between your version and the correct version from 2.2.2:

PHP Code:

---

$back_in_stock_notification_form->setVariable('email_confirmation', 


---

should be:

PHP Code:

---

$back_in_stock_notification_form->setVariable('cofnospam', 


---

All the best...

Conor

Thanks, fixed! :oops:

is there a way of getting this to work with attributes? so or our products have 6-7 different sizes and if one size is out it would be nice for someone to set -up notification for that size.
