Cross Sell Advanced [Support Thread]

[NWCE]

I have been searching and had a question to you lat9 as you obviously know what you're doing.

I have selected my database in MyPhPAdmin and run a Search on all tables for the word "Xsell". It returned 2 results in admin_pages amd 4 results in configuration. When I look at these results within these tables they all relate to your plug in. So this has to be telling me that the previous plug in is completely erased. I have also looked at the products_xsell table to insure that there are no duplicate entries.....and nothing.

As this is a real head scratcher and I cannot go live with this result, would the old version of this plug in (the one I'm currently using on my v.1.5.5 site) work in zen cart v.1.5.7 I know that there have been some fundamental changes to zen cart....so thought I'd ask someone who is integrally involved.

Thanks again,

Jeff

Jeff, that YourStore template is very, very invasive. I'll suggest that you search through your storefront files for xsell to see where it's being used other than the plugin itself.

Hi lat9,

Thanks for you help and suggestion on searching my storefront files. I will definitely do this and post back.

Thanks again,

Hi lat9,

My apologies and thank you for you help......the module works perfectly!! After several hours of trying this and searching that, I tried installing the old Multi Cross Sell v 1.03 module from my zen cart v.1.5.5 into my test v.1.5.7 and it worked and displayed correctly. I did notice that it displayed duplicate product titles but the lower one was in bold.....so it got me to thinking.

As I had not installed the images onto my v.1.5.7 test site (folder way to large with over 2300 products) I wondered if what I was seeing on my test site with your module installed with simply duplicate product titles as one is the displaying title and one was for the Image-Alt function. I removed the Multi Cross Sell and re-installed your Cross Sell Advanced II module and uploaded images for just one product into my test v.1.5.7 site. It worked!

Once again, my apologies for not realizing this earlier......and thank you once again for your help.....it is much appreciated.

Suggestion on next push - add the link to the template modification instructions to the text readme file (or perhaps delete it entirely so you don't have to maintain two copies).

ZC 1.5.8 changes
- change ./includes/modules/xsell/category_product_selection.php to call zen_draw_pulldown_products instead of zen_draw_products_pull_down.

Otherwise works like a champ. Note that the old Related Products module no longer works with 1.5.8/PHP8 and will require significant updates.
I am pointing people to this module instead.

I'd quite forgotten that I had this in GitHub! Was that function name changed from 157 to 158? Just trying to understand the "why" for the change.

[swguy]

Yes, the function name was changed. I submitted a PR to your repo to fix.

[lat9]

Yep, saw the PR but didn't understand the why.

One of the function renames from 1.5.8.
