Best Sellers Reloaded...

[lat9]

I've reviewed the plugins files; it's ready for Zen Cart v1.5.5! No change required.

Is it compatible with all the 1.5.5 versions?
(I am using 1.5.5e)

Yes, the plugin is compatible with all the 1.5.5 versions. There are two (2) template-override modules requiring merging; each has one (1) well-marked, to-be-inserted code block.

I know this is an older thread, but I've been playing with it. I was able to get it to appear on both the main page and the categories pages pretty easily. But what I'm wondering is how the "best sellers" are calculated. I am working with a copy of a live store and I see that the "best-sellers" showing with this plug-in are not best sellers according to any actual sales and the real best selling products don't appear.

Can anyone shed any light on this? Thanks!

I figured out what was happening and it was an easy fix. I had the setting for "Show out of stock" set to false, but the client's store does not use product quantity. So the two products that were showing just randomly had a quantity set. All other products had 0 for product quantity so they never showed up as best sellers. Changing that value in config solved the problem entirely.

I am using 1.5.7 w/ Westminster Template. Can anyone tell me if there is a known issue? I can't seem to get Best Sellers to appear on the home page.
Thank you.
