Dynamic Price Updater

[nolsowski]

PHEW!!!

Glad all this trouble is now sorted out :).


Hi Dan, thanks for your reply and no need to apologise ever! I am sure you have a life outside of watching this thread and waiting for peoples comments about DPU :).

Ok I have enabled DPU in the test store and I have doubled checked the error directory to see if the errors returned and they have. Here is what the errors are saying for your reference.

[25-Jul-2011 14:29:33] PHP Warning:  reset() [<a href='function.reset'>function.reset</a>]: Passed variable is not an array or object in /home/my_site/public_html/shop/includes/classes/dynamic_price_updater.php on line 194

I will send you a PM with the address so you can access this store.

Thank you once again for your continued support of DPU and I am glad to see that the thread and DPU is still intact :).

I have this same error but I noticed on mine it's only when I add new products. My site is http://www.frompropertorocker.com

Hi

Firstly, thank you all for the support. It's nice to know it's there

The error above is a bit of an anomaly: it's saying that a scalar variable is being applied to a function that is expecting an array. This error doesn't affect anything on the product page (it won't affect the loading of any other mods) and doesn't affect the actual cost calculation. That said, any error/warning/notification from PHP should be investigated and I'll get onto it and get it sorted

Also, I want to finally quash the discount display problem before I submit this to the Contributions section. I also have to sort out the licence. It's going to be a good few days before I'm able to do this as I'm really swamped at the minute. I will get to it as soon as I possibly can

Sorry for the further delay

Just wanted to thank you for a fabulous mod! I was having a problem with my site being a little jumpy from a different mod that was using ajax and in addition to the prices looking better, installing this fixed 99% of the weird things the other mod seemed to be causing.

You rock!

Hi

Cyba and kamelion0927 thanks for the kind words ... My wages for the Updater are kudos points

It was my full intention to work on the Updater this evening to bring it up to spec, but unfortunately I've had to devote the time to fulfilling critical work tasks... I do apologise for the delay but it's a little difficult to find time at this moment (as a one man company I have quite a bit on)... I will get to around to this this week (I'm 90% sure)

In the meantime I appreciate and thank you all for your patience

Well i tried to change the productPricesSecond float to right but in the product info display.php file there is no such thing as a productPricesSecond i can add one but still cant change the one i.
Do i have to change it in the ajax uppdater file and if how

Hi

KSpencer, the link for the Updater will always be in my link... When I've had a chance to get it submitted I will update this link... Always check there

oberheimer, you won't find the second price display in any of the template or display files as it's created dynamically... The productPricesSecond reference is the ID of the element... Just create some CSS rules referencing that and you're good to go... Let me know if you get stuck

Cheers

Thanks for the quick response Dan :-) I actually have a contribution after trying to get this to work for 3 days.

My problem (for keyword searches): continuously spinning ajax logo, not updating dynamic price on product page, not updating sidebox at all, javascript error "object required" error on childnode.

My solution (after 3 days of code hunting): Removed "?>" from end of my custom template english.php Problem solved.

It's working great now. I have the version from your chrome snippet site, last updated in 2009. Btw, there is another version floating around out on the web dated mid-end July 2011 titled Improved Dynamic...it claims to fix the discount problem. I loaded it and get Internal Server Error pop up. I don't have the knowledge to find/fix that, but would be interested to know when there is an updated release. I have subscribed to this thread, and will look for your announcement.

Thanks,
Katherine

Hi Katherine

Please don't use the 'improved' Updater: it's nothing to do with me and it replaces a core file... There was some controversy over that version... I'm in the process of getting the Updater working for discounts but I haven't had any free time just recently
