Quick Updates plugin [support]

[hivtop]

Hi... got to say what a time saving addon.. thanks for the hard work.. downloaded "newest" from the zen addons page, I'm using ZC1.5.4 got the warning page after install like most..LOL... changed the quick_updates_functions.php like the tread suggests and all went well... playing with around 40 main categories and 100 sub cat with 3300 products, between this and easy populate4 made redoing my store a breeze after a hard drive crash... boohoo

anyway my question is... is there a way to compress or remove the "description" section (cuz I have some LONG descriptions).. OR move the "categories" section to just after the "name" section in the layout, so I don't have to bouncing from one end to the other to change categories for a product???... cuz I'm getting dizzy... hahaha

Again THANKS for the great addon

You can enable or disable columns in the configuration menu - admin>configuration>quick updates.

cool, now you're just teasing me with more goodies the addon can do.... since it worked "out of the box" (with one little fix) I was so busy changing cats never even looked at config drop down... my bad...

If it isn't fun... Don't do it! Remember... The mind is like a parachute. It works only when open.

fixed it.. there was a bug in /quick/updates/functions.php..

line 39 was:
$db->Execute("INSERT INTO ".TABLE_CONFIGURATION_GROUP." (configuration_group_id, configuration_group_title, configuration_group_description , sort_order, visible) VALUES ('Quick Updates', 'Quick Updates Configuration', '1', '1')");

and i changed it to
$db->Execute("INSERT INTO ".TABLE_CONFIGURATION_GROUP." (configuration_group_id, configuration_group_title, configuration_group_description , sort_order, visible) VALUES ('43','Quick Updates', 'Quick Updates Configuration', '1', '1')"); the '43' for configuration_group_id was the next number available in that table.

This got me up and running on 1.5.5f. thanks!

In admin/quick_updates.php you should change

if(QUICKUPDATES_MODIFY_NEW_COLUMN_1 == 'true')
echo zen_quickupdates_table_head('p.' . QUICKUPDATES_MODIFY_NEW_COLUMN_1, TABLE_HEADING_NEW_COLUMN_1);

to

if(QUICKUPDATES_MODIFY_NEW_COLUMN_1 == 'true')
echo zen_quickupdates_table_head('p.' . QUICKUPDATES_NEW_COLUMN_1, TABLE_HEADING_NEW_COLUMN_1);

if you want to add another column.

Zen Cart 1.5.5e
I found the problem with products description, while there is link inside. Part of the description is visible on main page - please have a look at the screen attached.

It will be usefull to display actual length of description and be able to sort listing by this field.
It will help to find products with short description (it has a big impact on SEO) and correct it quickly.

Just installed this and it looks like it will be a really great addition. But when I try to access it displays the message at the top of the administration page
Quick Updates Configuration Keys Not installed. Please install your configuration by clicking Install
When try clicking the link I am getting an error of message WARNING: An Error occurred, please refresh the page and try again. Refreshing page does solve it.

Look in your log files, there should be an error log in there with some info about what's going on. Post it here, but xxxx out the name of your admin folder for security
