138 mods tested on 139

[clydejones]

Can someone help clear up a little bit of confusion...

Regards Just Another Cross Sell (JACS) mod by yellow1912. There are conflicting reports from people who have tested this mod. I got it working but only with an older version of Module Manager.

I use JACS and while i think it is a great mod, i want to move away from using this mod because im not happy with having to install an older version of Module Manager to get it to work and I know because of Yellow1912's busy life that he is unable to support his modules.

So, is the following from the 'tested list' fully OK with 139b and does anyone know if they are PHP5.3 OK?

cross_sell_1-3-1 (Tested by Clyde Jones)
cross_sell_advanced_1-0 (Tested by Clyde Jones)

also, could someone provide me with a link, as i could only find cross_sell_1.3.0, and it was in Spanish...

also am i right in thinking that to get cross_sell_advanced_1-0 to work the other version has to be installed first....?

Cheers
M


(p.s... why is no one voting to ZC in my sig link!.. bad craic that!)

cross sell 1.3.1 is here ( www.zen-cart.com/index.php?main_page=product_contrib_info&products_id=76 ) You need to scroll to the bottom of the page:
Author: Granville
Version: 1.3.1

----

Install cross sell 1.3.1 first and then cross sell advanced.

----

They both work fine on 1.3.9b and are php5.3 compatible

Not to pick on you at all dw08gm, but this is something I noticed a while back..

Just a suggestion.. I noticed that a lot of these modules are listed using what appears to be the name of the zip files which contain the module files.. It would be a lot easier to recognize the modules from the list if the actual module name and version number was used instead. For example, I don't know what module edit_orders_2 is. The currently available version of Edit Orders (by Scott Turner) is 1.5.3.

Also I believe that these items are in fact the SAME add-on:

It is a valid criticism of the Free Software Add Ons facility that it cannot readily be kept up to date, and that one therefore is required to search through the forums to obtain latest mod version or update. Hence, from searching the forums, the latest version of Edit Orders FROM Scott Turner's site IS 2.03. OZpost is another mod that has many updates in the forum, but then this is a rather special case, and many thanks to Rod for doing so).

It would be just too nice and convenient if each module listed in the Free Software Add Ons facility also contained a relevent forum URL, thus reducing the duplication of threads per mod, and also tabled (perhaps as a sticky) a list of relevent post ID's indicating important updates or corrections, as well as least or latest compatability and uniform numbering (eg zc1.3.9, php5.3).

There may be a difficulty that someone must oversee this process, but to me zencart still ranks amongst the most responsible forums I have seen on the www.

It would also be nice if the list that Shane78 is maintaining were somehow to morph into that nice and convenient arrangement.

I agree.. Again, I hope you know I wasn't picking on you at all.. Just thinking out loud.. While you and I both know that the latest version of Edit Orders is available on Scott's site, if those new to Zen Cart were to use this list as a resource, they will not necessarily know this information. So having the full mod name (versus just the name of the zip file) as well as a brief indicator as to whether the version being reported is in the free-downloads or elsewhere would be tremendously helpful to all checking this post.

Cheers for the input Clyde! Will give it a go... I also got a mail-shot from SWGUYs site yesterday after i posted my question saying that his Better Together mod had bee updated to include this type of Cross Sell without discounting etc on the product page listing not just @ checkout... I will give that a bash too... but I use Edit Orders, so a winmerging session may prove too much for me.

I will be adding another update at the end of the day (GMT 11pm-ish). As there about another 5 or so mod updates from people and I will hopefully have tested a few more too, such as cart totals in the header etc...

including the new suggested heading of either Defunct/Depreciated or Incorporated... suggested by someone in a private msg, sorry.. forgot your name.. but good idea!


Cheers all

p.s. (TO ALL: 9 votes is crap for a community of this size... http://alternativeto.net/desktop/zen-cart/)

I have also taken on board dw08gm and DivaVocals points... and points well make..

and i will hopefully on Sunday night be able to spend a few hours really getting this list up to date and in order...

and while i know no one is having a go or criticising how i am doing things... please remember that i run 3 small business (by myself with NO staff.. that's how small and struggling i am), all of which are all trading by phone/fax/email now because i am redoing the sites unto 139b and PHP5.3 standards (and im not a programmer). I am also learning MODx as Im building 2 mini-sites to go with my products. I am also an amateur clean-bodybuilder and my sport is in season and have a competitions scheduled at end of every second month all over the UK so im heavily involved with forums at bodybuilding dot com... so please remember that my time is so strictly routined and planned then when people post their findings on mods the more information someone gives and the accuracy of that info helps me NO end!!!!

Thanks

Yep, one of the first mods I tested and installed after upgrading our new Chillout Fashions site. Meanwhile "tested" by real customers ...

[Get Em Fast]

Has anyone tested the Checkout Amazon Style in 1.3.9b, yet?

[Shane78]

I have tried my best to update the Login As Customer add-on. But as im not a programmer at all.. can someone please look at it to see if it is OK?

I have tested it on a site and it works, but not being a programmer i dont know if i have done it 100% right or is there is something tiny i have missed that might not at first glace be seen... I also am unable to test on PHP5.3....

I installed Encrypted Master Password (Dennis Sayer) first before trying this...

please advise...
