Reward Points Full Suite v2.5 (for ZC v1.5x) Support Thread

montanag:

I have downloaded v2.5 twice and when opening docs/RewardPoints_Readme it opens the overview page but all the hot links from Installation, How to use etc. just go to a blank blocked page even when they are from a downloaded file on my own system and I configure Chrome to ask then allow Flash

What am I doing wrong please

Thank you, never mind - figured it out, had not extracted folder fully, sorry for the trouble

So can you confirm that this plugin will work with ZC 1.5.6.a or b? I am currently using 1.5.5f where it definitely works, but I am trying to stop being stubborn and move into the new age and need to know it will work for at least those versions. I know it doesn't work at all on 1.5.6c something is wrong with the admin section.

Hi there, I have just installed this module for version 1.5.6c (a fresh install - no customers, orders or anything as yet) and the following page doesn't render at all so I can't set up the ratios etc: .....zcadmin/reward_points.php

I have been using the module for years in my old store that's 1.5.5 without issue.

The page is completely blank in the new installation. Will it work once I import the data from my old store or is there something that needs to be changed on that page specifically or something else I need to do?

I have checked the installation and everything is in place. The one script I haven't run however is the one entitled remove_multiple_config_items - I can't see any notes as to what its for or when it is supposed to be run - is this perhaps the issue?

I'm working on a version for 1.56c now with corrections to the known bugs and integration points for commonly installed modules.
Donations are welcomed!

This would be of interest, and would make donation for your work. Not sure if 1.56c is much different to the 1.57 version. Still currently doing upgrade at the moment.

It appears everything will need to meet the 1.56c coding **step **before being merged with 1.57, which is also becoming an upgrade coding step.

A polished public version for 1.56c may be ready for the end of August with the current schedule/funding support - Thanks!

1.5.6c

Any idea on a timeframe for 1.5.7 compatibility?

Cant wait. We're grossly behind on this module since 1.56 is already out and most of us who uses this mod is stuck on 1.5.5f
I sure wouldn't mind throwing a few coins your way if you're able to publish a proper working release.

For those who hasn't bothered to read the pervious pages of posts on this thread:
As of Now, Oct 5th 2020. Reward Points Full Suite does not work out of the box for ZC 1.5.6c and definitely does not work at all on 1.5.7

Thanks for this wee update - I have Rewards Points on my old 1.3.7 version and I'm currently writing a new site with 1.5.7 and it's a popular tool with my clients :) Happy to donate to this as well.

ROQSOLID:

.....zcadmin/reward_points.php

I have been using the module for years in my old store that's 1.5.5 without issue.

The page is completely blank in the new installation.

remove line 13 from admin/reward_points.php and the page will load. The file is trying to pull in another file that was removed a couple Zen-Cart versions back.

Change lines 32-44 to look like the below. All that has been added is single apostrophe's at the beginning and end of those debug call outs. These changes were provided by swguy:

case 'NOTIFY_ORDER_DURING_CREATE_ADDED_ORDER_HEADER':
$this->StoreRewardPoints($customer_id);
break;

case 'NOTIFY_MODULE_CREATE_ACCOUNT_ADDED_CUSTOMER_RECORD':
if(REWARD_POINTS_NEW_ACCOUNT_REWARD!=0)
if(REWARD_POINTS_NEW_ACCOUNT_REWARD>0 && !HasRewardPoints($customer_id))
$this->AddRewardPoints($customer_id,REWARD_POINTS_NEW_ACCOUNT_REWARD);
else
if(REWARD_POINTS_NEW_ACCOUNT_REWARD<0 && !HasPendingPoints($customer_id))
$this->AddPendingPoints($customer_id,abs(REWARD_POINTS_NEW_ACCOUNT_REWARD));

case 'NOTIFY_LOGIN_SUCCESS':

I have this working on ZC 1.5.6c in production (and am about to test on 1.5.7), what part of it is not working for you? (also see my last 2 posts)

I am working on an upgrade to ZC 1.5.7. My clients customers really love the rewards. Any progress on a version that works on ZC 1.5.7?

BTW I have been trying to make Rewards 2g work with no success.

A 1.56c version is working I haven't packed it up for public release just yet. At this point the 1.57 version will be out early 2021 if charitable or commercial funding continues :)

Thanks to the folks that continue to support our coding efforts!

Thanks for the update Twitchtoo. I'll pass this on to my client.

Hey Twitchtoo - I think I may have found a serious "bug" with the how the module interacts with another plugin. I am still working on isolating it, but here's what I suspect.

We are using your Reward Points alongside the One Page Checkout plugin (which allows customers to checkout using a global Guest Account).

I think what is happening is that if Customer A checks out as a guest and earns reward points, it's being assigned to this particular Guest Account. The next customer (Customer B) comes to the site, and when he checks out as a guest, he now has available reward points to use even though he's never shopped here before.

Can you tell me where in your code I can hardcode something that says, "If the Customer ID matches 1234, then don't assign any reward points?"

I think that is the easiest workaround for us. Basically, I can plugin the ID for the Guest Customer (which is always the same), so that if an order is placed using that Customer ID, then no reward points will be rewarded into that account. That way, the next anonymous person who uses it won't get free credit to use.

Thanks in advance.

EDIT - Another option might be to only display reward points to customers if they are logged in. But for now, I need a quick solution to not give away credit to anonymous Guest checkouts (which apparently has been happening in our store for months unnoticed until now).

Currently, I am having a CRON job run a database update every few minutes to zero out any pending/earned points for that Guest Account customer_id, but that's not ideal.

Noting that, as of zc156, there's now a function (zen_in_guest_checkout()) that returns a (bool)true/false to indicate whether/not the checkout is being performed by a guest. The reward_points' order-totals could use that as a clue to 'not enable' if (bool)true is returned.
