Auction Product Type

[davewest]

Although this should work....Looking at the product types / Product - Auction / Edit Layout . The show additional images in not there like in the regular product.

I think if this switch was added it would allow the additional images to show.

Anyone know how to add this switch to just the auction product through the SQL?

I have tried but keep getting error of tables.....

Thanks
Grant

Not as simple as adding a sql statement... I found some of the code for additional images was missing.

I was working on cleaning up some of the code and getting it ready for a minor update. I also found out that the Meta tags wasn't installed on it as will. I've added the meta tags and also found where the code got off on the standard additional image and made changes for that.

I found out that I was missing some of the 'product_type' code while installing ceon_uri_mapping mod. Now it's working allot better and it's SEO ready.

I'm done with the edits, now I'll move it over and setup a upgrade and full install to upload. As long as I keep my boss happy, it shouldn't be to long.

Hi, Motorcycle Connection or anyone. I hope I am doing this correctly as this is my first inquiry in this forum.

I was curious how you resolved the problem of "invalid master category" when entering a product for auction.

I have made a new install of 1.3.8 and Auction Product Type 1.0. Was able to add an Auction Products. Products display on Category and New Products pages, but when displaying the product info, I get the "document.getElementById("remain") is null" error. Can anyone tell me what I set up incorrectly or what I am missing.

The breadcrumb displays: Home : Auction Product: "product title".

Thanks,
Rik

I never had that type of error popup before... you may have missed installing a page or the page wasn't uploaded completely. I would go through and upload all the pages once more and see if that fixes things.

A link to the site would help.....

You need to run the SQL file to setup the databsae.

It's removed on the next one... I tried to comment it out, but it still showed up.

I sent in another upload with all the fixes and upgrades. I've added metatags in the Auction Layout and fixed the image issues, and cleaned up some missing things.

I tested it on a clean install and upgrade install and it all work for me.

The install instructions are not as good as I would like, I'll have to work on that some more or I'll post it up on my blog.

I have re-installed everything from scratch several times. I am testing on a windows system. The error does not appear as a pop-up. I can see the error when viewing errors in either firefox or explorer browsers. Can you tell me in what page/file the ID "remain" is defined?

I have copied the .99a version files to the install and the product info displays fine, but I would rather be using the latest version if possible.

I am new to this and I am sorry if I sound rather ignorant.

Thank you,
Rik

'remain' is used in the javascript for doing the countdown clock on the product page.

includes\modules\pages\product_auction_info\jscript_main.php
includes\templates\YOUR_TEMPLATE\templates\tpl_product_auction_info_display.php

It more then likely is in error if your testing server doesn't produce a time setting. Never tested on a Windows server, only Apache running on both Linux and windows. The script grabs the time from the server during page load.

I am new to this and I am sorry if I sound rather ignorant.

No problem... If I can't reproduce the error, I don't know what to say.. I can't see your system or what's making the error. I'm also assuming 'Windows server' is IIS, and not Apache.
