Variables in display

[gordon777]

I have installed the latest zen-cart and get some strange results. For instance, once I make a purchase, the shopping cart box appears as it should, but "1BOX_SHOPPING_CART_DIVIDERS" displays just before the item in the cart: 1BOX_SHOPPING_CART_DIVIDERSBilliards, then a horizontal line, then the price.

Thanks in advance for the help

What template are you using? You are missing some CONSTANT definitions

[gordon777]

template_default

[gordon777]

1BOX_SHOPPING_CART_DIVIDERS does not appear in a search with the Developers Tool Box.

ALSO

ENTRY_REQUIRED_SYMBOL appearsin the Contact Us form

Because we do not use that. Have you changed something somewhere?

[gordon777]

OK, I was in error. it's called Classic Template...

Your language files contain the definitions for those constants (which are the words ALL_IN_UPPERCASE). If the "active" language files for your given template do not contain those items, then your page will display the name of the constant instead of its definition.

You have either incorrect files in your language folders for your selected template, or you are missing the files that are supposed to contain the definitions.

I really appreciate you answer Dr. Byte. It is straight forward and makes a lot of sense. However, the problem persists...

I have a "control" installation of ZenCart on my computer. By control I mean absolutely nothing has been changed, nor will anything ever be altered. I did a search of the installation for the constant 1BOX_SHOPPING_CART_DIVIDER and found it does not exist. If it's not in my control group, how can it possibly be in the production install? And how can I fix the problem?

Thanks,

Gordon

BOX_SHOPPING_CART_DIVIDERS is the constant name.
The 1 is the quantity of products related to the items in your cart.

Typically this would show up looking like the following, depending on your choice of divider.

1 ea Billiards
or
1 x Billiards

I found it! here is where the BOX_SHOPPING_DIVIDER is

/home/thebookb/public_html/shop/includes/templates/template_default/sideboxes/tpl_shopping_cart.php

Line #25 : $content .= $products[$i]['quantity'] . BOX_SHOPPING_CART_DIVIDER . '</span><a href="' . zen_href_link(zen_get_info_page($products[$i]['id']), 'products_id=' . $products[$i]['id']) . '">';

The actual display is "1BOX_SHOPPING_CART_DIVIDERbilliards"

This tells me it is looking into the database for the item(s) in the shopping cart. AND, it acutally finds the item Qty 1 Itme Billiards. So why is the CONSTANT still being displayed?

The site is www.thebookbutton.com. I'll send the admin password under separate cover.
