Salemaker not showing Start/End dates

[jordymacsmom]

My salemaker is not letting me enter a start and end date for my sale. The "Start Date: & End Date:" shows up, but there is no date field. They don't even show up on the Salemaker screen, and when I tab through the fields, it goes from "If a product is a Special:" to the "Check this box if you want the sale to be applied to all products:"

I am using 1.3.6, and the last time I used Salemaker, it was working. Any idea where I might check to get this fixed?

I have posted this in the Salemaker forum twice, but have yet to get an snswer, so I thought I'd try here...

Rather than posting the same message repeatedly, why not add more information to it ... like:

- when was "the last time" ?
- what browsers have you tried this in?
- what other addons/contributions are installed?
- have you added or removed any contributions since "the last time"?
- how many salemaker specials do you have set up?
- do you have javascript disabled in your browser
- do you have firewall software installed that could be blocking javascript?
- have you installed any new programs on your computer since "the last time" ?
- have you had any odd hosting problems since "the last time"?
- when did you last do a backup/restore of all your site files and database?
- have you made any changes to file or folder permissions on your server since "the last time" ?

I have made some changes to some file permissions. I have checked the Admin files via my cPanel and the Specials and Salemaker php files are set to 644 both under the ZenCart/Admin and ZenCart/Admin/Includes/Languages/English. Is this what they are supposed to be set at? Is there somewhere else I need to check?

I had this problem with 1.3.8a. After some investigation I found that salemaker.php has:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="includes/javascript/spiffyCal/spiffyCal_v2_1.css">
<script language="JavaScript" src="includes/javascript/spiffyCal/spiffyCal_v2_1.js"></script>

but directory name and script has lower case "c" :

/admin/includes/javascript/spiffycal
/admin/includes/javascript/spiffycal/spiffycal_v2_1.js

All my Zen carts, that run under Apache with Multiview enabled don't have this problem. So, just rename directory and two files.

Note that Zen Cart uses "spiffyCal" as the foldername in its distribution files.
Thus, as you mentioned, the real problem is that your directory name is incorrect. Sometimes FTP programs will translate to all-lower-case ... which will cause problems such as you reported. Be sure to tell your FTP program not to convert filenames or foldernames to lowercase.
