Known Bugs (and fixes) with v1.3.8 / v1.3.8a

[Ajeh]

Symptom:
Admin Category/Product Listing is not showing prices when Customer Authorization is set to 1 or 2 ...

This was originally designed to make the Admin mirror the Catalog ... unfortunately, *somebody* ... er ... umm ... me ... forgot to finish this section of code so there was an additional switch in place of the customer_id session variable ...

This means, if you have your shop setup with Customer Authorization and you do not see the Prices in the Catalog ... Categories/Products ... it is because it is first checking if the prices "should" show ... this is not a valid test in the Admin and should be changed so that the Prices *always* show in the Admin ...

Temporary Solution:
This can be changed with a quick fix of:
/admin/includes/functions/functions_prices.php

  function zen_get_products_display_price($products_id) {
    global $db, $currencies;

    if (false) {
// 0 = normal shopping
// 1 = Login to shop
// 2 = Can browse but no prices
    // verify display of prices
      switch (true) {
        case (CUSTOMERS_APPROVAL == '1' and $_SESSION['customer_id'] == ''):
        // customer must be logged in to browse
        return '';
        break;
        case (CUSTOMERS_APPROVAL == '2' and $_SESSION['customer_id'] == ''):
        // customer may browse but no prices
        return '';
        break;
        default:
        // proceed normally
        break;
      }
    }

// show case only
    if (STORE_STATUS != '0') {
      if (STORE_STATUS == '1') {
        return '';
      }
    } 

NOTE: the STORE_STATUS is also there to do the same thing, that if you turn off the prices based on STORE_STATUS then the prices would turn off in the Admin as well ...

Both of these will be fixed in v1.4 with a better arrangement of code ...
