Product Type Book (by moku)

[AnnasAttic]

Thanks to all that made this addon.

Have one small problem.

I added misc 1 and changed it to UPC.

Now on product info page there is a , before used or new.

Have tried admin developers tool kit and can't locate the stray comma.

Does anybody have any suggestions on how I can locate and remove it?

TIA

This add on looks perfect for my needs, as anyone tried to get it working on 1.3.9d?
I am working from scratch, new install of ZC along with a new DB but when I try to add a new product type of "book" through admin, I just get a blank page?

New install ZC 1.3.9d
New DB
All files for book product type (V4)
SQL run & all tables created
SQL for dummy authors ect run & ok

All the admin/extras/book(s) are there & accept input no problem

BUT if I try to add a new "product - book" I only get the admin header load, no options for adding a new product.

All other product types still allowme to enter data as required.

I tried 4 complete installs so don't believe there is a missing file.

Any help appreciated thanks

I have since tried 1.3.8a & no luck here, at least I do get a message now.

parse error in admin\includes\modules\product_book\collect_info.php
on line 1766


This is so annoying, of all the reported problems users have had, they did get past the install stage.

I must be doing something wrong but can't work out what.

Any help once again would be appreciated

Hi,
Figured out what I was doing wrong with the comma.
But now all my listing are showing new in description.
Can I just comment out the tpl_product_book_info_display.php
line A which is showing the new?

TIA
Anna

Please forgive I was over looking a tic box for new or used.

Love this addon.

I am trying to setup an online bookstore. I have a huge excel/txt database with columns for author, binding, size, price, description, excerpt, surnames, etc. I know that I can configure a column with all the information in one cell and upload through Easy populate, but is there a program where I can use my excel database/easy populate and have it upload these columns separately?

If you have a Excel SS & wish to load it into your MySQL DB, then you need Navicat.

Brilliant piece of kit.

Hi All,

I'm starting with a fresh installation using the latest versions. The WAMP server site currently consists of:

Latest version of Zen Cart
The Bookshelf template
Contact Us - Add Subject
Expanded Category List
Latest version of Product Type Book.

The problem I'm experiencing is that I do not see any product type book form in the admin area when I try to add a book type product. It appears that collect_info.php is not running.

Adding a general product works fine.

What am I missing?
