Hi,
Does anyone know if Delia's Mod for Facebook Like button work with the new version of Zen Cart V1.5.0?
Thanks.![]()
If you go from a previous version -- 1.3.9h for example -- to 1.5 then yes because they are located in the template override folders. IF the mods had files in the admin/includes/boxes (I think that is right) then they will not show in the admin section.
If you are using a fresh install of 1.5 then they might not work if the code has not been fixed.
Hi Dark Angel,
I have not install the Facebook button to my shop yet, but in the process. I'm using the latest Zen Cart V1.5.0. which was upgraded from the previous V1.3.9h. From everything that I have read in this forum about Delia’s Facebook mod was for the previous Zen cart versions so I was curious if it work for the V1.5.0. And if it is compatible, do I follow the same installation procedure?

I would, hers is one that does not have admin side controls to it.
I would install her code into the duplicate of the files that are going to be placed into your template folder.
If there are core files to edit also use a duplicate to edit and please backup the store database prior to doing anything...you never know when the internet gods get hungry and eat your stuff.
It has been awhile since I installed her mod and as I said all my mods work in my 1.5 test store but then it is a direct copy of the live store and all files were in their override folders...now when they get their codes placed into the newer store files...who knows. We were supposed to uninstall mods which I totally forgot to do.
Some are getting ported to 1.5 files but not most of the ones I use so I am waiting to see when they do...since all the mods being ported are / should be in the mod area but not all have been placed with the 1.5 as the software it is for in their listing yet and have not gone thru the long listing in their thread to see which have been ported yet.
sure wish there were a way for the site to let us know which ones definitely work in the 1.5 software
Hi DarkAngel,

Also excuse me for replyinf twice on this question. I'm kind of new to posting and asking questions on the forum.

I would have tested her code on my testing server, but the new version of Zen cart V1.5.0 doesn't work with the version of xampp that I have unless I install the new version of xampp. The demo store that is on my testing server is V1.3.9h so that doesn't help.
I guess I'm going to follow Delia's instruction and install it on the new V1.5.0 and if there is any problems I could always remove the code.
Thanks again DarkAngel for the response and help to my questions.![]()
I just checked the files for 1.5 and there are tiny changes in the html_header that do not affect functioning so yes, the mod can be used as is for 1.5.
Please do understand that the 1.5 changes are for pci complicance and you should look carefully for file changes this time. Do file compares and check the change log for file changes. Too many times I found the wrong version of a file being used on a site with 1.3.9h. Always check!
Sorry, did I miss the fix for the META_TAG_FBTITLE issue? It doesn't seem to be defined and therefore appears as the title in the post.
Thanks for your suggestions.
