Hi steve,

Thanks for the mod. I have installed it and it does detect if i am on a pc or a mobile device and shows the right template. But I don.t seem to be able to switch between the two. I made a link at the bottom of my page to switch, but it starts reloading my page in the template it was in.
I am using Zen Cart 1.5
I checked for the cookie, it is being set.

Hi Erik,
Have you got the updated version installed with the sitechoice.php file.

This fixes the original issue with the cookie not being set correctly, do you want to share a like so I can have look?

Hi Steve,
I have removed the mod for now. Maybe I will make a test setup this weekend. Ihad the latest version installed, with the sitechoice.php. The cookie was set, but is not used when the footer link is used.
I will report back as soon as the test site is up

I am also having this issue and am not sure how to correct the problem. Have you had any luck fixing it Erik?

Hi Colleen,

I am absolutely clueless
this is my test site

It is a vanilla 1.5.1 installation, only with the goMobile addon.

Well, you aren't alone! I cannot figure out why it won't work, grrrr!!!!!

I haven't tested the new version of this mod but it looks like there may be a problem switching between mobile and full sites.
The new sitechoice.php looks for a querystring variable called 'fullsite', but the code looking for a querystring variable called 'fullsiteoverride' is still in init_templates.php.
It looks to me like the init_templates.php included in the new distribution is an old one. I think it should just look for a cookie called 'siteversion' and show the appropriate template based on that rather than looking at querystring variables.
As I mentioned, I haven't tested this yet so I could be wrong!

Change this section of code in includes/init_includes/overrides/init_templates.php

/*** Check if user has requested specific version of the site*/

if ($_GET['fullsiteoverride'] == 1) 
   {
	$value = 'fullsiteoverride';
	setcookie("mobileCookie", $value);
	setcookie("mobileCookie", $value, time()+1800); /* expire in 1/2 hour */ 
	$iwnatfullsite = 1;
	}
	
if ($_GET['fullsiteoverride'] == 0) 
   {
	$value = 'fullsiteoverride';
	setcookie("mobileCookie", $value);
	setcookie("mobileCookie", $value, time()-1800); /* expire in 1/2 hour */ 
	$iwnatfullsite = 0;

	}	

if(isset($_COOKIE['mobileCookie'])) {$iwnatfullsite = 1; }


/*** Check if there is a specific template for this mobile platform and use it*/
if ($mobile_browser >= 1){
		if($iwnatfullsite == 1)
			{ 
		 		$template_dir;
			 }
		 else
			 {
				$template_dir = $template_dir.'_mobile';
			}
}
/*** EOF : SPECIFIC TEMPLATE FOR MOBILE CLIENT**/

to this

/* Override to mobile version of site if requested */
if(($mobile_browser >= 1 && !isset($_COOKIE['siteversion'])) || isset($_COOKIE['siteversion']) && $_COOKIE['siteversion'] == 'mobile') $template_dir = $template_dir . '_mobile';

/*** EOF : SPECIFIC TEMPLATE FOR MOBILE CLIENT**/

Thank you for your input Damian! I had narrowed it down to the same thing, but wasn't sure how to make the change so that it would work. I'll give it a try this weekend!
