Multi Cross Sell mod [Support thread]

[Kevin205]

Before I start I wanted to thank you for your contribution.

Running Zen Cart 1.5.1

I installed the “multi_cross_sell_v1.03” plug-in without any problems. This is a fresh install without any prior similar plug-ins.

<!-- BEG: Multi Cross-Sell mod -->
<?php
// THIS CODE WOULD BE ADDED INTO YOUR TPL_PRODUCT_INFO_DISPLAY.PHP WHEREVER YOU WANT TO DISPLAY ALL THE CROSS_SELL BOXES:
  if(defined('MXSELL_ENABLED') && MXSELL_ENABLED == 'true') {
    for ( $mxsell = 1; $mxsell <= MXSELL_NUM_OF_TABLES; $mxsell++ ) { // show all cross sells
      require($template->get_template_dir('tpl_modules_multi_xsell_products.php', DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'templates'). '/' . 'tpl_modules_multi_xsell_products.php');
    }
  }
?>
<!-- END: Multi Cross-Sell mod -->

I placed the above php code before "/form"

I created 4 products, 1 main product called “PRODUCT A” and 3 parts called “Part 1”, “Part 2” & “Part 3”as follow:
ID for “PRODUCT A” is 24
ID for “Part 1” is 25
ID for “Part 2” is 26
ID for “Part 3” is 27

Under admin/catalogue/Multi Cross Sell, I created a new cross sell as follow:


Under admin/configuration/Multi Cross Settings, my setup is as follow:


When I select “PRODUCT A” I see the following under the “product_info” page



So far so everything is OK.

Question 1) Why is it when I select, add to cart, in the above scenario, “Part 2” gets added to the cart instead of “PRODUCT A”? I have tried this many times on different products and it seems to add the first product on the left from the “Suggested Matching Items…”! What have done wrong? What am I doing wrong?

Question 2) Is there any way to code in and get a “Quantity Box” instead of “Buy Now” button on the product_info_display page only, so the customer could have the choice of picking the quantities of the items he needs to the cart from this page, instead of going back and forth to add related products?

You need to move the </form> as well.

Could be done (but hasn't as I didn't require it)

I wish I knew how to code in php.

I would have done it, because it is a very useful scheme and a lot of people could use it.

Thank you for your help.

There is probably a very simple fix to this and I am just missing somewhere, but after installing Multi Cross Sell it does not even show up in Admin - Catalog to install it. I double checked that all files are in their proper places when I moved them to our test site, but I am not sure why it's not even showing up to install it. If anyone has any suggestions, that would be great! Thanks!

** NEVER MIND, I AM AN IDIOT AND APPARENTLY CAN'T READ! FIXED!
