Back In Stock Notifications

[vatertime]

Hi,



No, sorry, that functionality is not available.

You'd have to have it custom coded, there's no way to do what you are asking in Zen Cart.

All the best...

I got 'er working with a little php goodness. BTW, there is a missing </div> tag at the very end of tpl_account_back_in_stock_notifications_default.php

Makes everything look crappy on your logged in account page.

Otherwise, a really slick little mod. I really like its verboseness. If anyone is looking to test it out you can on my site if you want: nelsontactical.com

Hello again Conor,
I've installed this mod on a Local 1.3.9b website and it seems to be working well. Can you confirm if it should be ok on 1.3.9b?Cheers.

Hey Conor, kind of same question here. But first of all, GREAT add-on !

I'm running on 1.39b, an upgraded from 2.2.4 to 2.4.0. Merged the files properly and it works fine... until I change the functions_general file.

Then my site goes blank, I don't even access the home page... Any idea what it could be ? Is there any SQL to be done ?

Thanks a lot for your help,
Please if anyone else on this thread has an idea, that would be very nice to help,
Cheers to all,
Jordane

Hi Jordane,

Hey Conor, kind of same question here. But first of all, GREAT add-on !

I'm glad you like the software and that all the effort writing it is appreciated!

Then my site goes blank, I don't even access the home page... Any idea what it could be ? Is there any SQL to be done ?

You probably haven't uploaded all the files properly. When you get a blank page in Zen Cart it means that a PHP error is occurring. This is often caused by required files being missing.

If you search the forums you will find out how you can check what the error is. (Basically you need to enable "strict error reporting" in includes/application_top.php).

However, first things first, I'm just about to release a new version of the module so you should download it and use its files. Follow the entire installation process for 2.6.0, from start to finish.

If you are still having problems with blank pages then you should read the thread(s) about blank pages and that should hopefully get you sorted.

Please don't reply here asking about the blank page issue if it is still continuing, but ask on one of the threads to so with that. (The reason I ask this is that I want as many people as possible to see the message I'm about to post about the new version being available and if you post about a site specific problem chances are no-one will know about version 2.6.0! :) )

As I said though, hopefully installing version 2.6.0 will get things working. If not and you can't sort out the blank page issue please send me FTP and admin details for your site at this address and I'll take a quick look.

All the best...

You should upgrade to 2.6.0.

(Please don't reply to this on this thread, I want as many people to see the announcement about the new version as possible).

We have many products that are the same but have to be categorized separately, it would be amazing if there was a way to have a batch sign up process.

Perhaps after searching for a product they are shown the standard search return page, and the products are listed as normal with the link to the back in stock form. Now if there was a way they could tick a checkbox on all the items they want to be notified about then proceed to a back in stock page where the customer only has to put their details in once and they are then signed up to as many of the out of stock products as they had ticked.

You think that is possible?

Also, would it be possible to email everyone who is in the back in stock notification list, perhaps add it as an option in the newsletter send to list.

Hi,

How are you? It's been a while!

Perhaps after searching for a product they are shown the standard search return page, and the products are listed as normal with the link to the back in stock form. Now if there was a way they could tick a checkbox on all the items they want to be notified about then proceed to a back in stock page where the customer only has to put their details in once and they are then signed up to as many of the out of stock products as they had ticked.

It is certainly is something which could be coded but there are no plans to add any new features to the module at this time.

Also, would it be possible to email everyone who is in the back in stock notification list, perhaps add it as an option in the newsletter send to list.

Again that is possible but would have to be coded.

I'm sure if you put an advertisement in the help wanted forum that someone should be able to code these features for you.

All the best..
