***just a note - hope you don't mind the long, detailed post...I tend to be a bit retentive! Hopefully these notes will help everyone else though!***

OK, for all those interested, I forgot to add the link yesterday. It has already been updated, so you can get it here:

http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?ma...oducts_id=1024

I downloaded and did a fresh install. I found that I still had to make these changes as I noted in my original post - to the file includes/modules/order_total/ot_giftcard.php:

line 62 from this:
Code:
public $title;
to this:
Code:
var $public_title;
----------------------------------
line 69 from this:
Code:
public $output;
to this:
Code:
var $public_output;
...otherwise the module doesn't show up in your admin panel to install at all (modules - order total) and the error shows up as I noted in the first post.

After making the changes to these 2 lines and making NO other changes, the module shows up available for install, which I did.

Now, I went to tools - gift card manager and it appears to be fully functional now, so the OTHER updates that were made fixed the database problem.


This will be an AMAZING contribution - one that will (hopefully) allow me to avoid gift certificates altogether!! As much as I love Zen Cart, I HATE the gift certificate system! lol

My next post will be my testing results...
