Known bugs (and fixes) for v1.5.8 series

[swguy]

Long time users who have had the product since before Zen Cart 1.5.6 may see an issue when going to Tools > EZ Pages. If you get a white screen, here is the fix: go to Admin > Tools > Install SQL Patches and run

ALTER TABLE customers_basket DROP COLUMN final_price;
ALTER TABLE ezpages DROP COLUMN languages_id;
ALTER TABLE ezpages DROP COLUMN pages_title;
ALTER TABLE ezpages DROP COLUMN pages_html_text;

NOTE: This should only affect users using a database prefix (e.g. "zen_" or "zc_") in their configure.php files.

If you don't yet have a configure.php file or a database, you must explicitly go to YOURSITE.com/zc_install if you are running PHP8+.

If you go to YOURSITE.com, PHP7 will show the Welcome to Zen Cart page, but PHP 8+ will show a blank page. Fixed in PR #5332

PayPal Pro gives a white screen at checkout.

(This can also happen with any other onsite payment method that uses AJAX.)

See warning in post #9 about additional files required for PayPal.
