Recover Cart [Support Thread]

[sunflowertami]

Simple Google Analytics already has a v1.5. Check the free addons.

I'll be glad to chip in too. I wish the Zen community could come up with a way to have these various mods be sold here.

I suggested before that this would encourage the developers to upgrade their mods faster and also a part of the payment can become donation for the zencart developers.

The other cart website like Pretashop has both free and commercial mods on their site, it just makes it easier for the users to find the mods to use and ensure that upgrades are kept up.

OK, well, I'll offer $20 by PayPal to a developer that posts a fully-functional version of Recover Cart Sales that works for ZC 1.5 to the Addon repository here at www.zen-cart.com

For me to pay out, the module must be complete and posted by midnight on February 7, 2012. It must contain the correct SQL patches so that both the configuration menu, and the tool itself, pop up in the admin menus.

It must also have an upgrade path from the previous version, or at least include an uninstaller (or uninstall instructions in the readme) for the previous version of Recover Cart Sales.

We'll see if other users feel like pitching in - it looks like Tami might be willing.

How do you know I'll pay? Ummm... I don't want to piss off a ZC developer, that's how!

Yeah, but it didn't appear in the admin menus without some fun SQL stuff. Similar problem to the Recover Cart Sales problem, except, I guess, that RCS has not been inspected for security stuff.

Thought since it doesn't have any front-end boxes, I don't think it has too many holes.

This module has been downloaded 12694 times since it was posted. If each person who downloads it pays $1.00, think how much incentive that will be for the developer!

[tnagel]

Good point! Are you willing to pitch in some money, DecoStyle?

I'll be happy to pay the developer when he/she uploads the finished v1.5 version.

I can download my version of RCS. Compatible with php 5.3 and zen-cart 1.5.0. Not compatible with previous versions of RCS.
I can do it after February 7, 2012 - now there is no time for it.

For all the time I did not get a penny donation. More than that. The number of people have said thanks to much less than those who are outraged and poured mud at me because I refused to do for them their jobs. And I'm not alone. In recent years, several developers have left the forum.
I enjoy Zen-Cart, and I want and I will do with its development as much as time and opportunity.

I agree with the above 100%. This would seriously stimulate the development of commercial add-ons.

Hello Andrew,

When you have perfected your RCS on v 1.5 then, put it up as a commercial module and just charge for it.

I hope the Zen developers will find a way to allow the developers to post commercial modules on here. Just as now the description of the module states "version" why not add a type "free, shareware, commercial"?

(off topic)

I understand your predicament. For years I have offered free charts to customers who for most part were thankful but some were just nasty about getting more and demanding why I don't put more free charts on it!

So I finally stopped it and just started charging for it. I don't charge a lot for it but I learned that when people get things for free do not appreciate the worth of it and have a tendency to bite the hand that feeds them.

I can imagine how much in this case the perturbation!

Oh, yes! This is a great example!

Andrew,

two things:

1. good to see you are still active with RCS
2. once your version of RCS is v1.5 ready and working you will get my donation, that's a promise

Keep up the good work!

Frank
