Ok. Put QBI back the way it was before you changed it.

Go to:
/store/admin/includes/configure.php

Normally it should be as follows (replace mydomain with your own domain):

Code:

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://www.mydomain.com');
  define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://www.mydomain.com');
  define('HTTP_CATALOG_SERVER', 'http://www.mydomain.com');
  define('HTTPS_CATALOG_SERVER', 'https://www.mydomain.com');

  // Use secure webserver for catalog module and/or admin areas?
  define('ENABLE_SSL_CATALOG', 'false');
  define('ENABLE_SSL_ADMIN', 'false');

// NOTE: be sure to leave the trailing '/' at the end of these lines if you make changes!
// * DIR_WS_* = Webserver directories (virtual/URL)
  // these paths are relative to top of your webspace ... (ie: under the public_html or httpdocs folder)
  define('DIR_WS_ADMIN', '/storezen/admin/');
  define('DIR_WS_CATALOG', '/storezen/');
  define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_ADMIN', '/storezen/admin/');
  define('DIR_WS_HTTPS_CATALOG', '/storezen/');

Wow that was alot of work for a simple fix. Thanks Adam for your help. Its all working now. But one last question, I went to your site and registered at the esupport link. Where does it spit out the registration number so i can get rid of the "this copy is not registered line"?

ok last question for a while, i promise. I am just getting ready to finally open my site for business. Currently I have 4 "customers" listed in zencart in QBI, but obviously none have bought anything yet. When i try to import them, it says import successful. But when I open quickbooks customer lists, it doesnt have any listed? Is the reason due to them not technically buying anything? Or shoudnt it import them anyways?

I never got around to setting up the registration system for the free version of QBI. The support registration at www.qbisoftware.com is for users of the paid version. The message will not affect the operation of QBI. One of these days I will look back at my code for 3.21 and see what it wants as an acceptable registration number. The other thing you could do is do a search for that warning text in the QBI language files and then delete the text and just leave the opening and closing quotes.

This is a source of some confusion. The customers count displayed on the Create page is the total customers. However, the Customers download will only include customers who have placed orders.

This is being improved in paid version 3.80, which is about to be released. This version lets you choose customers with orders, customers without orders, and customers without accounts (who placed orders, for the PWA contribution), in any combination. Also, the count on the Create page will be correct, according to the options chosen.

Note that in normal operation, it is not necessary to use the Customers download feature, as customers are always added or updated along with their orders. One reason to use it is if you have a store that has operated for some time, but just started using Quickbooks, and you want to bring all your existing customers into Quickbooks (without importing all their past orders).

Thanks,
Adam

ok thanks. So how much is the paid for version going for now? is there a list of updates that you have done vs the free one? Is it easily upgraded to a new version?

Thanks again for making this module and continuing to support it even though its free

I can't discuss that here, but you can get that information at the qbisoftware website.

hello everyone,

not sure if this is the right place to post this or not...

i am currently setting up a site using zen cart. i have used zen cart in the past and really like it. my only concern for this particular project is the ability to bring data from zen cart into quickbooks. it is my understanding that this add-on (QBI) is pretty complex to implement. so i am wondering how it is working for people? does it require tons of configuration? is it working reliably after it is installed?

if i am not certain of the add-on, i may have to switch to a different cart solution. booooo.

thank you so much for your feedback.

It's actually very easy to set up, configure and use; especially if you use the same product model in ZenCart as the item name in Quickbooks, you don't have to do any product matching.

It took me about 1 hour to set up, configure and learn how it works.

Can anyone give me some advise about making this work with paypal pro -- everything that I have tried all my orders are imported as Invoices and I need them to be sales receipts?
