Dynamic Price Updater

[Chrome]

Hi

@mattieh1: Do you have a link for your site? I don't recall this issue being raised before but go for a hunt through the thread to see if there are any similar reports... Off the top of my head I can't think of any reason that would happen

@amy: You're quite right, that shouldn't be... I'm quite surprised it's actually still working ... I'll check out your site see if I can see any weird data getting thrown about

Cheers

Hi Dan -

Just a few posts back (#737) I posted a code change I made to v1 of your DPU mod so I could get it to display the way I wanted.

I've just come across an anomaly and wondered if there was an obvious explanation. I add codes in parentheses at the beginning of each attribute. These codes make it easier to fulfill orders. I've discovered that if I have parenthesis containing LETTERS and no spaces, then the price dynamically recalculates placing the text from that code into the price display. So I guess it's interfering with the code.

So (L), (R), (LL) results in the error and but (1), (L L) don't make the error. You can see in the link below where I experimented with lots of variations to figure out the exact ingredients for the error.

I haven't upgraded to v2 because this was working fine for me up until now. If you tell me there is no fix for this version I may upgrade to V2 and try to recreate my display.

Thanks for your help!

Hi

I'm afraid to say that there really isn't a cure for this... Y'see, the original Updater uses a regular expression to 'read' the page and make decisions based on certain patterns it finds... Now, this regex (called seeker) is quite complex and I doubt it would be easy to upgrade

As a workaround you could try using square brackets or even the brace {}

Cheers

Thanks for your quick reply. I think I will try Brackets instead.

Is regex is the same for V2 also?

Hi

V2 doesn't use the seeker regex, it doesn't use a search regex at all... The new system works by gathering the IDs and values of the form and submitting them to an Ajax script... It makes the front-end more stable and minimises the amount of code delivered to the browser (faster page load)

You don't have to delete V1 to disable it temporarily; you can just prepend an underscore to the filename

Good luck and let me know if you need any help

Hi everyone, i have this installed and mostly working, but is it right that on items using the salemaker, it makes the original price and the "Save: 10% off" text vanish , replaced with just the new price?? I would really like it to keep the "Save: 10% off" text showing if possible, not even bothered about the old price with line through though that would be a bonus. Any ideas, I have read through every page of this thread I think

Hi
I really don't have a problem - this thread and the amount of effort you put into it have allowed me to sort everything out.

Just wanted to thank you Dan for a fantastic mod

Hello,

I have tweak the attributes to do the length * width * material cost (all attributes) and get the final price in the shopping cart and using the custom code found in http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showth...re+foot&page=2 number 15.

My question is how can i do this in the Dynamic Price updater?
And which code in DPU i have to edit?
Or have someone did this already?
Please can u tell me where do i start and what are the steps?

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks
