Back In Stock Notifications

[jbible]

Having trouble getting this to work. I have installed it three times and I am 99% sure I am doing everything right as I am quite experienced with zen cart mod installs.

Admin looks ok... but the restock box isnt showing up on sold out products.

I have went over my templates with a fine toothed comb and tried everything even down to copy the file exactly as it is just for tests sake and it still isnt showing up.

Any help would be much apprecaited.

Hi,

Unfortunately the only answer is that yhou haven't installed it properly.

Either you are editing the wrong template files (check if you have an override in place in your template folder) or maybe you have disabled the module (have you added the admin configuration group/setting correctly - i.e. is it there and enabled)?

If you're still having trouble send me FTP and admin details via this link and I'll take a quick look.

All the best..

Well it seems to be working on product listings... just not on the Product Info page itself.
I am actually applying the modified chunks of code to my music product info template... tpl_product_music_info_display.php
Does that fact that it is product_music_info make a difference anywhere?
I have a few other mods added for wholesale pricing etc.

A quick test with the general product template and the fact that it works is making me suspect that the music product template is causing issues.
At least I have an idea of where to look now.

EDIT: Is there a way to get this to work with other product types?

[jbible]

I assume there is something in this addon that says if product type =1 true? Is that correct? If so can it be changed to 2? Been searching the code trying to find the way.

[jbible]

Couldnt find it.
I got everything working except for it working correctly on product_music_info
It works if you click the request link in the product listings... with this url...
http://www.experimedia.net/notificat...ification_form (except for the fact that it doubles it up the request link line by the sold out box)
But then it doesnt show when your on the actual product page itself...

That's the exact reason and was just what I was going to say when I read your next post..

Currently the moduler only supports the standard product type.

I'll release a new version with support for other types whenever I get time. Can't say when that will be as I'm snowed under with "normal" work at the minute!

All the best..

Ahha. Well it does work for those products if you click it from the product listing... just not on the details page themselves... which will do for now until you upgrade it a bit.
Thanks for the info and the great mod!

Hello Conor
Thank you for this great MOD.
I have one questions:
1 - I would like the button back_in_stock in tpl_product_info is active if the stock is equal to -2. Where do the modification?
Thank you again
Patrick

Hi Patrick,

Glad you like the software!

active if the stock is equal to -2. Where do the modification?

Obviously that's an unusual request but you can change the quantity threshold at which the link is displayed on a product info page by modifying the file

includes/classes/observers/class.back_in_stock_notificationsProductInfo.php

changing the line:

if ($products_quantity <= 0 

to

if ($products_quantity <= -2 

To change this threshold on other pages (listing pages etc.) would require custom coding of some core files.

All the best...
