Product Type Book (by moku)

[davewest]

Is there someone else want to join this?
I am not sure if this allowed to discuss in this forum.

I've been looking at this for some time, but had other things on my table. This mod was more of a lesson in creating product types then a working mod... it help point me in the right direction with product type auctions.

Looking at the structure again, I have some questions... In order to create a product type book that would be more inline with the current version of Zen Cart and with the minimum amount of edits when upgrading your cart or when version 2 comes out... I would have to do a total rewrite of the mod.

The downside to this is you would have to do a fresh install... upgrading would not be impossible to do thus this would start a new fork for product type book.

Can anyone tell me how to change the number of characters that display in Authors search. It worked fine until I added latest upgrade, now I only get first 5 letters and 2 periods for names. Thanks in advance

Where can I get the latest upgrade for Zen 1.39h

Unfortunately there is no special PTB version for 1.3.9h.
The latest was PTB4 written for ZC 1.3.8
I've PTB2 running on 1.3.9h but have many issues.

Hi AllanH,

I have been using Product Book Type for about 3 years now. I do not think Moku's site is coming back. But I do have a copy of the zip last upgraded zip file on my server.

Do be forwarned it doesn't work too well with 1.5.0 but I have been able to use it seemlessly with 1.3.9h and earlier. 1.5.0 has it's own version of product book but it is seriously lacking. Maybe the developers can take this and figure out what is missing with the new version of zen cart.

What could be the solution.
