Back In Stock Notifications

[conor]

Hi,

Conor I have deleted the file re-installed it to the original, still no luck. It has the same problem. Now I know everything is in it's correct folders and it just throws the error I mention before. You say not possible but it's their just the same.

If you are seeing the name of the define but it's not being converted into the actual text of the message, then the only thing that can be happening is that the define hasn't been loaded.

You really haven't got the correct file in place, otherwise the define would exist and you wouldn't see the message you are seeing (the name of the define rather than its content/definition).

Check again that you don't have a language override in place which is loading a file which doesn't have the language define in it.

All the best...

Conor I about have this all sorted out, but when I click To be notified when this product is back in stock please click here it goes to another page instead the form to fill out. What am I doing wrong. Thank you in advance. I do have another question for you. In includes/template/template_default, does these files go into my custom file or do they go to template default?

quick question.

I got this contrib installed without problem, and i LOVE IT. iv been wanting to install it, but just never had the time. ZC has needed this for quite some time.
IM not sure if someone has already said something about this and i missed it, but.....

anyways, im wondering if there is a way to disable the stock product notification system so that the customer isnt confused and dont use the wrong one when subscribing. I removed the sidebox, but in the my account page it still shows the product notification system thats included with the release of ZC.

Glad to hear you like it.. it's always good to hear that the work's appreciated! :)

Yes, set "Customer Product Notification Status" to 0 in Configuration > Customer Details

The customer won't be offered the chance to subscribe to product notifications or see any previous notification subscriptions, but they'll still have full access to their Back In Stock Notification subscriptions - exactly what you want!

All the best...

Hi,

Conor I about have this all sorted out,

I'm glad to hear that!

but when I click To be notified when this product is back in stock please click here it goes to another page instead the form to fill out. What am I doing wrong.

That appears to be a problem with the URIs being generated by your SEO software, it's not a problem with the BISN module - you have finally got it working properly! Now just to get the SEO problem sorted! (You should ask on its thread, I can't help with that here).

I do have another question for you. In includes/template/template_default, does these files go into my custom file or do they go to template default?

As they are brand new files it doesn't matter which directory they go in.. they aren't overriding anything so they can go in template_default but Zen Cart always looks in the override directory first so it'll still find them if you put them in your own template directory.

Hope that helps.

All the best...

Thanks for that. I will get that taken care of.

One last thing, i noticed that you talk about a code that should be in the email that is sent for the subscription, however i dont see that code being provided to my customers in the email, only the link.

am i missing something?

Installed this tonight and it went perfect, except nothing shows up on the product page when it is out of stock. Everything copied correctly, sql file ran without erros, and the admin portions look good. I'm wondering if my template is hiding it?

Update: It does show up on the product listings pages, but not the individual product page. However, when I click on the link in the product listings page, it just brings me to the individual product page.

Hi,

Yes, it must be. You haven't added the template modifications properly. Please read the docs and try again!

All the best...

Yes, a code only gets sent to those who aren't registered members on the site.. that's how they can verify who they are when they want to unsubscribe. Registered users obviously don't need to verify themselves.

If there's nothing to modify, just copy, this should be quite easy, correct?

I copied the two files into includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/templates/

Both files are there. If the product display is working (almost), wouldn't the other be working as well? CSS conflict?
