Mod List Support Thread

Mod List is a plugin that shows you how your cart has been changed from a default installation, looking at

* New admin pages which your mods have created.
* New database tables which your mods have created.
* New modules (shipping, payment, and order total)
* Admin configuration groups which exist but do not have a corresponding menu item (indicating an incomplete upgrade from 1.3.9 or prior).

It's here in the Plugins area:
https://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=2039

torvista:

Offtopic, but I think you have some input to the team on this, why are mods allowed to add tables without any name control?
Why not enforce that they must be all zmod_whatever, to keep them separate and out of the way/easily noticed as add-ons.

For Zen Cart 1.6.0 a similar feature is planned see https://github.com/zencart/zencart/pull/637

Correct - it is built in to 1.6.0 as "System Information" under the Tools menu.

Coming soon - 1.3.9 Support.

Thank you for the mod.

1) With items that I no longer need, showing under New Database Tables, is there a safe way to delete those with phpmyadmin?
Example: customers_wishlist

2) With Missing Admin Configuration Pages, is there a good way to go about getting rid of those items also? (Unused)
Example: Wish list, Ultimate Cross Sell Settings (These are old mods from years ago...)

Hope this is on topic enough, being that it might help others to use the results given from this great mod :-)

In both cases, the safest approach would be to use the uninstall procedure for the mods in question. You could of course remove the tables for (1) and delete the config entries for (2) but if there are residual files lying around that refer to them, it could cause a problem.

Coming soon - 1.3.9 Support.

I need this 1.3.9h support, hope can speed up if you can.

Much Thank you x 1000

Targeted for December release.

1.3.9 support for this mod is now available in the Plugins area.

Thanks swguy for the advice.
I have a newer version of zen now, so they're no longer installed. So can't use the uninstall I guess.
Probably best to leave tables and config as is, as I'm no good with php.

Does anyone know if this works with 1.5.5.e?

yes it does.

swguy:

yes it does.

:thumbsup: Thanks!

Note: The following is not a bugfix nor a major change to the mod's operation. Just a minor modification that made comparing listings easier for me.

I was trying to compare two sites and found that the listing is ordered by the FIFO (first in , first out) method that really made it difficult for these trifocals of mine.

So... I got the YOUR_ADMIN/mod_list.php file out and added an ORDER BY to the query on line 66:

    $pages_query_raw = " SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_ADMIN_PAGES; 

becomes

    $pages_query_raw = " SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_ADMIN_PAGES . " ORDER BY menu_key ASC "; 

That way, the listings are arranged close to the same as the menu items in the admin.

Makes it a little easier to compare.

I like to suggest something; is there away to add this?

Checks for deleted files and changed files in both admin and catalog? like an automatic compare. I am guessing you can make a reference file on GitHub for the version. Mods can have a line to add the actual mod its from. Just a suggestion not sure if this can be done.

You can do this offline. Download your files, then download a pristine copy of the version you based your site on. Compare all files.

Sweet little plugin; thanks @swguy!

In the case of plugin's that do NOT have an uninstall.sql included... How do we go about removing the loose entries? I don't have any databases or configs still showing that shouldn't be, but I do have these:

And I have no idea what or where these are. One All Social Login, and Mobizencart I know I have removed everything for, and nothing is triggering as broken, but there are files left for XSell and Sitemap, and I don't want to touch something and trigger a crash, because I don't know what or where they originally came from, or if anything is still pointing to them.

These are defined constants in PHP files in your admin. You can use the developer's toolkit to track them down.

I had a few of these show up in the Mod List that were holdovers from previous templates I had used (with the same database). I manually deleted the applicable tables in the database via phpMyAdmin (after backing up of course).
