Need to get the Request for Quote Shipping module to work for v1.38a

[mmsim]

I think I've corrected the "zone problem". It seems to test correctly for me, but someone else try it and see if it works in your case as well. Here's the correction:

In catalog\includes\modules\shipping\rfq.php Line 41 is:

$check = $db->Execute("select zone_id from " . TABLE_ZONES_TO_GEO_ZONES . " where geo_zone_id <> '" . MODULE_SHIPPING_RFQ_ZONE . "' and zone_country_id <> '" . $order->delivery['country']['id'] . "' order by zone_id");

I believe it should be:

$check = $db->Execute("select zone_id from " . TABLE_ZONES_TO_GEO_ZONES . " where geo_zone_id <> '" . MODULE_SHIPPING_RFQ_ZONE . "' and zone_country_id = '" . $order->delivery['country']['id'] . "' order by zone_id");

("zone_country_id <>" should be "zone_country_id =")
(don't forget to change the typo: MODULE_SHIPPING_RQF_ZONE should be MODULE_SHIPPING_RFQ_ZONE as posted earlier.

Does this correction work for anyone else?

Great work! Works just fine now. Thanks for posting the solution.

[mmsim]

Thanks. I'm really glad this module finally works.

I've also found a simpler and much better way to eliminate the icon shipping_rfq.gif. This method does not involve modifying the template tpl_checkout_shipping_default.php.

To eliminate the icon, edit line 37 of catalog\includes\modules\shipping\rfq.php.

Change:
$this->icon = DIR_WS_ICONS . 'shipping_rfq.gif';

To:
$this->icon = '';

Simple. I don't know why I didn't see this solution before.

One more problem, with RFQ 1.01 it won't work with short tags disabled!

Some code is like this:

<? blahblahblah ?>

Some is like this:

<?php blahblahblah ?>

This drove me off the wall.. I couldn't figure out why it would work on one server vs another, I was mysqldiff-ing and using meld all day long.. finally after looking at it after a good rest, I compared some modules to others and realized the lack of "php" on the first "<?"

So if you're having a bunch of extra text appearing in the payment area of the back end, make sure to just do a CTRL F and and find those short tags.. there's only a couple you need to change.

Is there anyway to have this module trigger when the cart reaches a certain weight?

Can it be set to only show the payment module if the RFQ shipping module has been selected?

Hello everyone,
I am new with Zen-Cart but I started to love it. I have implemented lots of modules for it, but I have a problem with one module and I can not run it. I looked all over the posts but I did not find anything about it. The module is called "RFQ Shipping and Payment Modules" and it is from "Free Software Add Ons" on zen-cart website.

I followed the steps in the INSTALL.TXT file, but I dont have the module available in my Shipping or Payment Modules in the Admin area. If someone is using this module please help me to install it.

PS. So far most of the modules I have installed has *.sql file which adds the necessary tables into the DB but in RFQ I did not find one, just *.php files.

Thanks!

There's no SQL file in that mod.

I just installed it on a test site and it works fine, although I don't understand why many mods require the user to edit files - why not just include the edited file in the mod package?

Only thing I can think of is maybe you didn't change the name of the admin folder in the mod to the (changed) name of your folder before you uploaded the files (I've done that myself).

Steve thanks for your reply,
I did a mistake I have few websites which I am managing and I uploaded the files in the wrong place, so silly .

I did run the module and everythin went fine it was working very nice. Now I want to remove the module. When I did remove it from the admin panel everything went good. Then I tried to start my COD module and it started with no errors, but when I go to make an order it is not avalable there the option is missing...

I dont know if it has something with the RFQ module, but now when I try to start the RFQ module again I get this error:

1062 Duplicate entry 'MODULE_PAYMENT_RFQ2_PAYTO' for key 2
in:
[insert into configuration (configuration_title, configuration_key, configuration_value, configuration_description, configuration_group_id, sort_order, date_added) values ('For more info contact:', 'MODULE_PAYMENT_RFQ2_PAYTO', '', 'Who is the contact for quotations?', '6', '1', now());]
If you were entering information, press the BACK button in your browser and re-check the information you had entered to be sure you left no blank fields.

Now the RFQ and COD modules are not working all other are working just fine. The configuration keys got mess up or something and now I am stuck I guess i have to restore my backup to fix it.

go into phpMyAdmin and remove the row for that key after you Uninstall it. It gets left in and has an error when re-installed.

I have installed this module however the icon "shipping_rfq.gif" does not show (dreaded red X).

includes/modules/shipping/rfq.php has the following line:
$this->icon = DIR_WS_ICONS . 'shipping_rfq.gif';

However, when I view the source of the displayed page it shows as:
<legend>Request Shipping Quote&nbsp;<img src="DIR_WS_ICONSshipping_rfq.gif" alt="Request Shipping Quote" title=" Request Shipping Quote " width="100" height="80" /></legend>

The icon is in the images/icons folder.

Can anyone help?
