There was a some code undeleted. Now everything is fine.

Can someone tell me how does this mod actually works? I have installed it but there is nothing on my site. I followed all the instructions in the readme file.

Can't help you but just had to say that I'm also getting this. Followed the instructions and nothings showing up.

Any thoughts?

Hi
Thank you for this mod!

Ive installed it and everything works EXCEPT for the Yahoo! bookmarks. When I try to bookmark the page using Yahoo button it ads the http:// in twice.

For example go to http://www.gogoflorist.com and go to one of my products and click the yahoo button. I end up with a dud URL in yahoo since its got the http:// in there twice

I am using Simple Seo URL mod could that be causing any complications?

I am using ZC 1.3.8 a is this not compatible it says 1.3.6 in the download can that be right?

Many Thanks

Can I ask a thing please?
If I would add like attribute of url the no follow how can I do?

I don't know if this links are indexed by google or not, I wouldn't they be indexed.
Thanks

To everyone who's having trouble getting the bookmarks to show up in their shop:

If you're like me, you probably thought that the ReadMe instruction "1. Upload the '/addto' directory to your server Root Directory along with all the files in the /addto directory" was telling you to upload to the *actual* root directory /var/www/html/shop

It was not until I read through this thread and found the following information that I realised where I was going wrong.
Software Guy wrote:

"When I say "to the root of your shop" I mean copy this file to the same location under the DIR_WS_CATALOG directory in your
configure.php. So the path of the file you create would be
DIR_WS_CATALOG/includes/languages/english/html_includes/custom/define_main_page.php"

So after I uploaded the file to the same directory that contained my 'shop' it worked perfectly.

The easiest way to have more sites than the default number is to simply use the AddThis link, which has a zillion services.

Don't worry about nofollow.

The Add To Bookmarks module is *brilliant*, and on behalf of the Zen Cart community I'd like to say *thanks* for not only sharing it but also being kind enough to respond to questions from amateurs.

Here's another question from an amateur - how do we install the generic "AddThis" link (I know how to get the code) without triggering Internet Explorer's 'DANGER WILL ROBINSON!!!" warning about insecure content?

[cafman]

Okay ignore that question. I've found the answer!
If anyone wants it, let me know and I'll post it here.

I was able to install this on my site and it seems to work ok, except when I try to add on facebook it does not select a thumbnail.

I just clocks.

I have tried a couple of other bookmarks (besides facebook) and they do not look for a thumbnail.

Is there a why to get this to select the product image for a thumbnail on the social bookmarking.

I am not sure that I done a good job of uploading the images correctly (including the sizing), but it was working so I have not changed them.

my site is www.yourengravingsolution.com in case that will help.

Thank you in advance.

This worked on the majority of my products.

I have a few products that have attribute images that this did not seem to fix; however, some of the product with attributes did work.

I will have to try to find out what the difference is in how I added the products that do not work (it is probably something I did different on the ones that do not work).

Thanks again.
