Still having issues with graphics/sideboxs

I upgraded from 1.3.8a to 1.3.9h the other day. My original issue is resolved but I am still having some issues.

This is in a production environment not the live site. The live site is still running 1.3.8a and will be til I sort out the errors on the production site. Production site is inaccessible except in screenshots.

Addon, has image handler and private area both installed by CustomScriptz (I just inherited the site and they were already installed)

The url for the live site is http://scrappingyourmemories.com/store

Screenshot for the production site, front of the store: https://picasaweb.google.com/southernlady5464/Screenshots#

Notice the areas marked in red...I am missing text on the sideboxes in some of them, not in others. I am also missing some graphics. I have loaded the image folder 3 times. Once from the other site and twice I have copied it from my hard drive to the production site.

HELP!!!! Please, any ideas?

No, it is not my first store. I've had three previous and one is currently running 1.3.9h successfully, see here: http://www.secretcitydesigns.com/shop

The text issue will have something to do with:

For the images you could check where IH is looking for them, we would need a link to your test site for that,:smile:

I don't mind providing a link but you have to edit your host file to see it.

If willing to help, please PM me for that info.

Re: Still having issues with graphics/sideboxs

Some modules over-write CORE files - and when they do, the author of the module will usually tell you which CORE files are affected. When you UPGRADE, the CORE file into which the relevant module has its code located, is again over-written by the new version's corresponding file - thereby taking out whatever edits were made.

When you see CONSTANTS (eg: TEXT_PAYPAL_VERIFIED_SELLER) it means that the define for that constant (usually in a named language file) cannot be found - so the system just returns the CONSTANT.

You can usually work this out by looking at the additions that were made to the site (in your case, add-on sideboxes), and taking a look at the files relating to that add-on. (Download the addons in question again, if they are not on your home computer - unzip them, and see what folders and files are being used. Then - using your FTP program, COMPARE the contents of your server folders with those in the add-on's folders. The two systems must match as far as folders and files are concerned. In any case where a CORE file is involved, you should rather do a FILE COMPARE using winmerge, and then "copy across" relevant code from the add-on file, into the core file. This prevents blanket overwriting.)

These procedures are necessarily MANUAL... you should NOT use cranky "instant update" programettes to do these tasks.
