[Done v1.3.6] Country Dropdown Bug

[DogTags]

My host adviced me to remove all my (old) templates for all the pages where the country bug appeared, and it solved itself :)

But if you remove the templates, what is used to display your cart?

Do you mean that you're just using the default templates?

Thanks :)

I remove the templaters in the /includes/templates/MY_TEMPLATE/templates/ folder. The templates used to display everything is still in /includes/templates/template_default/templates/

I've spent the last 2 hours reading and rereading/searching on this thread as I too have this Country glitch after upgrading to 1.3.5.

Am I to understand that I'm supposed to get rid of my custom templates for this to work correctly?

Is there one final patch, or one final word on why customers are prevented from registering due to the fact the Country dropdown isn't being accepted?

While a big Zen Garden fan, this seems to be a pretty good sized glitch!

What is the fix, once and for all? Is there a developer that can provide the answer as some of the work-arounds I've seen are a bit suspect, including deleting my custom templates.

Thanks much

Yeps ... it is a pain right now to have this issue ...

Fortunately, the fix is being tested with a host of other issues from the Bug Fix thread for v1.3.5 ... and is looking really sweet ... and ... happy to say, not breaking despite all attempts to do so ...

And with luck, that means in the real world, you won't be able to break it either under any circumstances ...

It's nice to know that a fix is being tested, and to know that it will be released at some point, but a lot of us are losing customers/revenue over this. Can't anyone give us a more specific time frame for a fix release? A day, a week?

This is a major bug that should have been caught before 1.3.5 was released. I know a lot of work goes into these releases and I really do appreciate the amount of time that's put into the zen cart project, but I think we need some reassurance that this issue is a priority and that a fix is on the way very soon.

OK, since I have a backup of my old files, it just dawned on me to try using my old create_account.php file. I located it in includes/modules/create_account.php. I copied it into MY_STORE/includes/modules and now I am able to create accounts. Hope this helps

Yes it is hard when there is an issue ... which is why we do ask you to always upgrade a test site and not a Live site first and test well before making it Live ...

We hate lost revenues too ... the less you earn the less you can support us ...

Good news is soon is very very soon ...
