Auction Product Type

[dfontana]

Which version of Zen Cart are you using.

I'm using Zen-cart v 1.50 and the latest download available for the Zen-Auction

I might be missing something here, but I downloaded the latest zip for the Auction Type product, which says it is compatible with v1.5

However nowhere in the code can I see any reference to the plugin adding any admin pages to the new admin profiles database tables.

If this is the case then you will not see any of them in the admin menu structure.

K,

if you read te documentation in the Installation area of the documentation, there is a reference of what do do after it is installed and definitey makes reference to Configuration- Product AUctions. I also examined the Configuration_types table of the database and sw the installation sql added a Product AUctions to the table.

Hi,

My point was that there is no SQL to update admin_pages table. This is required in 1.5.x to allow for authorisation of pages, including new configuration sections.

Without that, you WILL NOT be able to see the added configuration section or any other admin pages added by the plugin.

So even though this plugin has been marked as 1.5 compatible, it is not.

Thank you for the information. I just deleted all the module files and uninstalled the mod files from my test site and recopied them and ran the install script again. Would wat you discovered in the sql file also cause an Http Error 500?

I'm having exactly the same problem, and the downloaded I downloaded said it was compatible with 1.5.

I can add auction items but after following installation instructions and double checking that all the file uploads are in the right places, no option appears in the configuration menu for Product Auction.

If it is a matter of including more in the patch to add the data needed then that would be nice to know. Also when that might happen.

And I have an old test version of 1.3.9f and I do have an Auction Manager (this must be the "Product Auction" option referred to in the documentation) as it seems identical to the config options shown there.
