Tabbed Products Pro (TPP) Contrib - Official Thread

[kamelion0927]

Does anyone know how this mod could be changed to apply to the homepage of the store. I have installed the great Middleboxes mod and would like to somehow 'tab' my middleboxes.

Any suggestions?

There is actually a mod for tabs on the home page here. It's a little crude and takes some extra work, but if you're willing to try, it looks okay (I ended up uninstalling mine).

The DEMO for this module is broken. Does anyone have any live examples to share?

Thanks so much.

I have it installed at theburningbutterfly.com if you would like to see it in action.

When I add the tabbed products I lose the "add new product" page in admin.
I drill down to my added products and they are there, however I cannot edit existing or add new as when I click I get a blank white page?

any ideas?

Thanks

As far as I know I've installed everything correctly and uploaded all files, but my product pages do not display the tabs? Any ideas?

I've configured everything in my admin for TPP.

It seems that I got the tabs to display *BUT* they do not display correctly, take a look and you'll see what I'm saying - thanks for your help.

Which version of TPP do you have installed? If you have the most recent version, they're most likely not displaying correctly because the css/js loader isn't on (or isn't installed properly because none of your css is being minified).

My advice to anyone having issues with TPP is to rollback and use v1.05. (you'll need to update includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/templates/tpl_product_info_display.php for Zen Cart v1.3.9 compatibility)

You do not need to use v1.07 or v1.06 unless you plan to or are currently using CSS Javascript Loader..

[autoace]

Yes I do have the css/js loader installed and thought it was on, but I will double check to make sure its installed correctly and on. I'll report back with the results - thanks for your help.

Thanks for your advice DivaLocals is there any chance you can please tell me or us exactly what code needs to be updated in the tpl_product_info_display.php file for ZenCart v1.3.9 compatibility?

Do you also know if the sub tag tab code placed on the main tab works with v1.05 on ZenCart v1.3.9?

For example:

<!--%Product Description%-->
This is the stuff on the 1st tab. It also has Add To Cart button on it. (by itself)
<!--*sub_AddToCart(1)*-->

As I could never get that to work at all.


On another note in case anyone is interested and has the same or similar problem.

I was getting lots and I mean lots of error logs being posted every minute when using TPP. I didn't realise that I had over 20,000 error logs all with the same error message in them until I checked the error directory.

Anyway I eventually fixed the problem and the errors disappeared by upgrading to the latest version of the CSS Javascript Loader. I also used WinMerge to compare and change the differences in the html_header.php file.

If anyone wants to know exactly what to change just let me know.

To download the new package just go to the following URL:

On another note for people that use the Dynamic Price Updater and TPP together I thought it best to mention a problem that I came across which I think may have been caused by upgrading to the latest version of the Javascript loader. But bare in mind that I am not 100% sure about just yet as I haven't had time to fully test this theory.

Anyway when I upgraded to the lateset version of the Javascript loader I started getting a large amount of errors in the error directory relating to the Dynamic Price Updater. Previously I would only get one or two. But when I upgraded the Javascript loader I started getting them all the time like every minute!

So I ended up uninstalling the Dynamic Price Updater until this issue can be resolved. Just thought I would mention this in case anyone else out there has the this mod installed and if you do I would be checking your error logs to ensure that this same problem doesn't happen to you.

Off the top of my head no I don't.. You can use WinMerge to compare and change the differences in the tpl_product_info_display.php file..

<!--*sub_AddToCart(1)*-->

As has been discussed on this support thread before, yhe only difference between v1.05 and every subsequent release of TPP is the additional of the CJ Loader. (v1.07 makes updates to v1.06 for v1.3.9 compatibility) As I posted "You do not need to use v1.07 or v1.06 unless you plan to or are currently using CSS Javascript Loader.." So except for making changes to the tpl_product_info_display.php file using v1.05 is perfectly okay..
