    I recall something in the mod's instructions that said you had to place some code
    to use buttons rather than text. Did you make that change?

    Took a look at all the instructions and I noticed this time that there was a line missing from the 'readme' file so did some research and added the code that was needed. Now I'm getting two 'ask a question about this product' links without hyphens...and without the image showing up. I obvious added another line of code while going through the 'readme' again methodically, yet overzealously. That I can find and resolve easily enough, but I am still baffled about the image not showing up.

    I've got this mod to the point where a link appears with 'ask a question about this product', but can't seem to get the image to appear. Have added image as directed so not sure what else to try.

    Default Re: Ask A Question

    First let me apologize if this has been asked before... I have searched the thread and can't find what I need.

    I just installed AAQ and I don't seem to be able to get it to work. I don't see anything different on any of the product info pages. Basically I don't see any changes to the software at all. No image file or anything like that.

    I have followed the instructions as well as I can. The last entry in the readme file said to insert some code but it was not specific about where it should be inserted. This might be where I am having problems.

    This mod seems like it is just what I am looking for so I would really appreciate any help.

    thanks...

    The default installation assumes your template is named "custom" - is it? If not, you'll need to move the template and button files under your template.

    Hi and thanks for the reply. Yes, I renamed the template name in the zip file to match the name of my custom template.

    Ok... after some digging and scratching I have now got the mod to the point where it displays a "text" link for "ask a question". All I need to do now is get the image to work... If anyone has any ideas, please let me know... I will be working on it.

    Default Re: Ask A Question-ADDING MORE INFO

    Hello
    I like this contribution a lot, Thanks swguy.
    I am wondering if there is a way to add/pass along more information to the ask a question page. Besides the name of the product and picture I would like to add the attributes that the visitor selects on the product info page ( size, color etc.)

    Thanks
    Andrew

    Default Re: Ask A Question - Please help make it secure

    Hi Everyone,

    This is going to be something really simple, I can imagine, and hope anyway.

    I want the "ask a question" page and link to be secure (always and in all cases). I know someone else asked the question some time ago, and the question was shooed away on this thread, but there are 2 practical reasons for this:

    1. Customers are submitting personal information such as email addresses. I prefer to have all customer information submitted on a secure page. It's just good business practice. I can't see why anyone wouldn't agree with that.

    2. This contribution has damaged my google ranking. Yes, I checked and Google webmaster tools shows me as having "duplicate content" which has damaged our specific search term from #1 down to #6 and #7 depending on the date. Since the google bot already has crawled the site a number of times and found these errors, I cannot seem to get it out of its mind that it doesn't exist without going and uninstalling the entire contribution (which I kinda actually like) and even then I'm not sure that it won't just ding me for missing pages. Yes, I have rebuilt my sitemap after removing it, but I just want the contrib to be secure. Is that so wrong?

    Can anyone quickly help me make the ask a question page secure? I feel like I'm overlooking something simple.
