Apple Zen Support Thread

[jettrue]

Hi... yes, the button is there. I decided to bite the bullet and upgrade. I downloaded the new version, but it does not give me the option to upgrade or upgrade the data base. I went through it several times, but there were no options to do this, and it clearly stated that all existing info would be erased.

so I upgraded to version 1.3.7 through Fantastico. The good news is that the edit shipping address now works fine.

the bad news:

problem 1) now my database is version 1.3.5 and giving me the error that I need to patch/upgrade it to version 1.3.7. Can't figure out how to do this as most suggestions say to run the install and do it from there, but there are no options to do this when I run zc_install. I tried another suggestion I found to copy and paste the code from the upgrade file (which i found) in the sqlpatch area of admin, but when I tried that, it gave me an error saying the sqlpatch.php file wasn't there (but it is).

problem 2) my coupon admin is totally messed up, doesn't work at all, and i use it a lot

This would be a good question for the general forum, sorry, I have no good advice, I always upgrade manually with a list of changed files, and merge my changes.

Well, I *think* I've fixed everything :) (keeping fingers crossed)

I had uploaded the entire zencart package with zc_install as a subfolder. I moved the zc_install folder up one level, and then it gave me the option to do the upgrade.

I did finally get the database upgraded to 1.3.7 (which is now my cart version... I think I will leave it that way for now, not mess with 1.3.8)

The database upgrade also fixed the coupon problem! So at the moment, it appears that everything works, but I will have to play around with the site more to make sure. I did just successfully complete an "order" and it went through to PayPal (IPN) and everything looked good. The coupon feature was working, as well as all address changes, etc.

Thanks again for this great-looking template! I *LOVE* the dropdown menu at the top! And love the colors, sage green is my favorite! The grey in the template was perfect for my existing banner, which is grey-scale except for a piece of jewelry that is in color.

Hello there, really loving this template, thank you. I've done a bit of modification to it, and still hacking away at it. I've noticed that it looks pretty awful in Internet Explorer 6 (looks fine in Firefox, Safari and IE7). The top level tabs of the drop down menu are stacking on top of one another, and stretching across the page. The website is at http://one.valcatohosting.com/~arcademu

I've tried the .htaccess instructions but I'm not seeing any difference, however, I can't be sure if I've done it correctly. My .htaccess looks like this:

# -FrontPage-

IndexIgnore .htaccess */.??* *~ *# */HEADER* */README* */_vti*

<Limit GET POST>
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from all
</Limit>
<Limit PUT DELETE>
order deny,allow
deny from all
</Limit>
AuthName arcademusic.co.uk
AuthUserFile /home/arcademu/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.pwd
AuthGroupFile /home/arcademu/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.grp

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^one.valcatohosting.com/~arcademu$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://one.valcatohosting.com/~arcademu$1 [R=301,L]

I'd really appreciate it if anyone could help with this one. I have searched this forum (which is an effort in itself - loads of posts) but can't really find much on this issue.

Cheers!

Do you see the same IE6 issue at my test site, http://www.zencart137.jadetrue.com?

The .htaccess will not cause or fix an issue like that, that sounds like a bigger issue. The .htaccess is only there to make the drop downs drop down in IE6. I see you are trying to use images with the menu, that's not easy to do with this menu, though I see you have the image listed twice in your source, so its showing up when you drop down also.
