I will post in a few minutes

If you have a blank page or part of a blank page look at your /logs folder for errors and correct them. See the FAQs section of this site for a tutorial about blank pages.

Thanks,

The problem is not inherently the template. If the template were making sites load slowly then I would be hearing from thousands of people that this is happening. If you have installed modules or made modifications, you may have broken something or introduced a problem related to the slow loading time. Take a look in the faqs section of this site for tips on how to speed up your site, and make sure that you are on a good web host for zen cart. Search the forum to see if your particular host is know for problems.

Thanks,

Anne

Hello Ann,

I recently installed 'Save it For Later' module and it is working well, great asset to the cart page. I am now trying to put the 'Save it For Later' button on the product pages just below the add to cart button. I have followed the instructions however I cannot get the button to appear - I'm wondering if it may be a .css stylesheet issue?

So I am looking for some help here please - cheers, Mike
Instructions are as follows - part a) is that which concerns the template;

If you would like to offer Save for Later on your product info page,
do the following:

a) In includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/templates/tpl_product_info_display.php,
right before the closing </div> for the cartAdd div which displays the button,
add this block:

<!-- bof save for later -->
<?php
if (isset($_SESSION['customer_id']) && $_SESSION['customer_id'] != '') {
echo "<br /><br />";
echo '<input type="submit" value="' . BUTTON_SAVE_FOR_LATER_ALT . '" name="sfl" />';
}
?>
<!-- eof save for later -->
--------------------------------------
other instructions (also done) are;

b) In includes/main_cart_actions.php, change the block

case 'add_product' :
$_SESSION['cart']->actionAddProduct($goto, $parameters);
break;

to

case 'add_product' :
if (isset($_POST['sfl'])) {
actionSaveForLaterFromProductPage($goto, $parameters);
} else {
$_SESSION['cart']->actionAddProduct($goto, $parameters);
}
break;

c) In the file includes/classes/shopping_cart.php, under
in the function actionAddProduct, right below the call to
$this->add_cart(...

insert the line

$_GET['uprid'] = zen_get_uprid($_POST['products_id'], $real_ids);

then towards the bottom of the function, change

zen_redirect(zen_href_link($goto, zen_get_all_get_params($parameters)));

to
if ($goto!= '') zen_redirect(zen_href_link($goto, zen_get_all_get_params($parameters)));

Pretty sure this isn't a template issue. I haven't played with save for later in a while but I think you only need to duplicate the add to cart button changing the action (but_now) to (sfl_move_to_cart).

@swguy has a support thread and is pretty good about answering questions about his plugins.

This is not a problem with the template pacakge. Any properly installed, stable module will work. Save for later is a well written mod and will definitely work if installed correctly.

Thanks,

Anne

Hello Anne,

my site(s) have the original version Abbington Mega and running v1.3.9h - I have just downloaded your latest version - can I 'upgrade' the current template using that download just by overwriting files or is there something else that needs to be taken care of?

cheers, Mike

p.s. sorted out the 'Save for Later' button problem - the button is hard coded, not an image

If you have not made any modifications to any of the template files then this should work. But, I would definitely create a mirror site and make the changes there to be sure that they work before experimenting on a live site.

Thanks for the advice Anne.

Anne - are the links in the footer 'no follow' - I have added a link to my Etsy shop alongside the social media links, just making sure it is no follow.

cheers, Mike
