I don't think you're allowed to advertise commercial software here.

Is this post advertising new FREE mod for zencart?
If so, url ON ZENCART SITE, where it can be downloaded
please.

Hi,

I was told by the support team that the free add-on to Zencart needs a public forum support page prior to approval. I am not trying to advertise I just copied the add-on description into the thread as I was not sure how best to start a support thread.

I wanted the link of the thread to go into the Readme file, Sorry if i have done this the wrong way around.


Thanks

Ok...hopefully mod will be listed in Free Software AddOns soon.

My mistake, maybe. Your website talks about a Free Trial for this program, which makes it commercial software after the trial period. If you're going to offer a free Zencart version, I'll look forward to trying it.

This is exactly what I was looking for. Great add-on. For potential updates of this mod, It would be nice if you could add the products to your cart while on the Facebook store then navigate to your stores cart upon checkout. Something like this.

Thanks for the add on.

Hello Mr brightsoftware
Thank You for your contribution. I would like to clarify the statement on your website,
Please Note: This is a free no-obligation trial. You will not be asked for any payment details. Beta-users will be given at least 1 month's free usage at the end of the trial period, after which you may choose whether or not you wish to continue using the App based on one of the price plans.
What are the price plans and is your marketing plan intended to get users onto the bus then release the cost structure
The details in the software release does not elude to this
Facebook - eCommerce Shop Browser
Whereas this module has the notation
*** NOTE: A MONTHLY FEE IS REQUIRED TO USE THIS MODULE ***

Thanks for your clarification

New to FaceBook eCommerce, so hoping someone might be able to help me out here.

I've installed this mod and it's doing exactly what it's supposed to but I was hoping to custominse the PHP file that ships with it to exclude a specific category from the feed.

Does anyone know what to add to the PHP file and where to add it, so that the products from cPath=1_350 do not get fed through to Facebook?

The reason I want these poducts excluded is that they're customer specific orders, set up as packages. They're of no value to potential customers and they need not appear.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I think know the snippet of code to use, not not sure where to insert this:

$where_str .= " AND p.master_categories_id != 350 ";

Any ideas?
