Disaster! My Ez-pages disappeared after upgrade to 1.5.3

Does this thread have any relevance?

Let me rephrase that: Yes, there is some relevance in that If I comment out line 30, the pages do load. And that does provide me the pages so that they are not lost if google happens to spider my site. But for MY issue, which is the EZ pages not loading the content that was in each page into the editor from the database (meaning the EZ page is blank for me when I go to edit it), that still remains.

Success! I just copied and pasted the info from the database into each page. I also tried to delete the info after to make sure the problem was fixed. I was able to add the info back in EZ pages from the database and then Cut the text, update, look at the page online and it was indeed gone. Pasted and updated, content is back. So it looks like that fixed my problem.

OK to anyone reading this who may have a similar problem, meaning the problem I'm having related to my original post: EZ pages not loading from database....

Just load your database in PHPmyadmin and look for the EZpagez section. From here it's pretty easy. Just find the section named PAGES_HTML_TEXT And copy the info over your pages 1 by 1

WARNING! If you edit your pages in any way from the admin (meaning typing anything in the content box and hitting UPDATE) before doing this it will wipe out what is in the database for that EZ page and your content is gone.

Sounds like maybe you have an old version of CK Editor installed that needs to be updated.

As for the paypal problem, when you did your upgrade, did you uninstall the payment module and then re-install it?

Stellar,

Thanks for that piece of info about ckeditor. I'm trying to see if it was installed previously. I'm not sure what CKeditor is useful for, but I looked at the older and newest version and they have a file called /includes/ckeditor.php

Neither my backup of the old site nor the upgraded zencart site have this file, so my guess is this was not an installed addon. Is CKeditor used for the admin section when editing pages? It looks like an HTML editor within a webpage from what I see.

Paypal - Yes I did remove and install the module again, but when I installed Paypal Express things worked perfectly. I thought Paypal Express was some sort of subscription service but it seemed to work right away without paypal asking for a subscription of any kind so that's good.

Next up: My thread talking about the format of certain orders not printing correctly in admin. it's making text very small if there is more than a sentence and words go off the page. Please comment there also if you can help!

CK editor can be found in the downloads section and is indeed an html editor.

Glad you were able to get PayPal Express set up. Much better than using the old Paypal IPN code.
