Help? I didn't wait for the "new release" version and tried installing the 1.3.8 version of COWOA, and then putting in the upgrade code. NO dice, now when I enter the cart I have a white screen. I noticed that the instructions for upgrading were for the "template override" which I can't find anywhere. Any ideas?

Did you do what EVERY MOD writer says to do, backup the files before you add any mods? If so, just copy the originals back in place. You must have missed something if you did your own merge or typed in your own changes from CraftZombies update. Leaving the SQL shouldn't matter.

If you didn't backup first, then look at your log files located in your cache folder. Look at the newest one first and it will give you an idea of where to look. Not sure, post the log here.

JTheed, not to be disrespectful, but DUH.
My point is that - from my clean backup - I've cut/pasted the codes as instructed five times now, each time with the same result.
I've left the site as-is right now, hoping that someone can tell me 1) if I did make a major mistake (and how to start looking for the problem), or 2) if the coding won't work with a fresh 1.3.9d install.

To be more specific:
As I asked before - What is this "template override system" that CraftZombie mentioned we SHOULD be using (see the top of the 1.3.9 upgrade announcement/ddirections)? A bunch of the instructions for 1.3.8 had me change files inside my template-specific folders, and I noticed the 1.3.9 upgrade directions change files outside the template folders. If my code is looking for instructions inside the template-specific files, then I suspect those aren't fixed and my coding is screwed.

Well DUH lol, you may have left your sight as is, but did you leave a link to it ? Did you look at the log files?

I'll let CraftZombie answer your override question as this is her update to the mod. If you want to try mine (Because you say you are using a Clean 139 install) , just click on the MY MODS Site in my Signature ( of the Zen Cart files section here). You can even see the COWOA work there.

Thanks JTheed, I'll take a closer look after work (the day job, that is...)
Whoops, it hadn't occurred to me to find and read a log. Is it in the admin? I've never done this kind of programming before - I'm an HTML/graphics kind of gal.

Not to worry, this is how I learned/am learning it. The log files are stored in your cache folder. There are session and sql statements in there, look for the ones ending in .log.

Hi JTheed, your mod seems to be working for me for a clean 1.3.9 install. BUT PLEASE add to your install file a Step 7 - Turn the bleepin' thing ON in admin>config. I went through all sorts of mental gymnastics until I noticed COWOA added to that menu!!!!
Still building...
