Dropshipping and PDF Purchase Orders for V156

ZC V156 new install with Ty Tracker and Dropship PDF Purchase orders only so far. I installed the Dropship plug in but cannot seem to locate an option to add subcontractors. Under Tools there is an option "PO/Edit Subcontractors" but I have not entered anyyet and there are not any showing of course. Where do I go to add the Subcontractors?

Which dropship module is being used? The one referenced here: https://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=688 indicates that it is not compatible with newer Zen Cart versions, though references a GitHub location (which may be compatible with newer versions). There is also this one: https://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=1536 which appears to be essential to support dropship operations possibly to include what is sought. Thing is that it indicates compatibility only up to ZC 1.5.1 as well. Upgrading for more recent compatibility may not be difficult for either plugin, but having/providing such information (along with searching any associated forum for the plugin(s) would help significantly).

Also, answering the posting tips questions would help as well as no history of a store has been shown other than joining the forum some time ago. Indicating the history of the store along with these plugins would help in identifying a path forwards. Please make it easy on yourself by making it easier for others to provide assistance.

Apologies for rushing through the initial posting. Dropship and PDF Purchase Order version is the newest 3.22. I had an older store that deprecated and I thought it best to begin anew. the new site is not up yet just trying to get setup completed first. If I remember correctly I believe the older site had an add supplier/contractor under tools but I have not found a way to add the suppliers yet. On the older site I did not need the Dropship Core Plugin as the previous version of this one provide what I needed. This plugin is installed and has a edit subcontractor option under tools but there seems to be no way to initiate an edit or add a supplier there.

The Github location points here for the support thread for this 1.5.x version. That is why I posted here.

This is what I see on the site.
There are no action buttons on the page. Cannot select anything on the page to get options, tried all of them.

That looks like a "partial whitescreen", with the implication that there's a myDEBUG-adm-*.log file waiting in the store's /logs directory to let you know what's wrong.

If you post the contents of any such file found, remember that the myDEBUG-adm-*.log files include your site's secret admin directory name, so you'll want to xxx that out prior to posting!

Thanks for the heads up on the debug file and the following to help resolve this issue.

Below is the content of the debug file with admin info edited out.

And here is the copy of the edit_subcontrac.php file. I only have notepad and wordpad so they don't list line numbers. I obviously need software that will list line numbers. I tried to upload but zencart would not upload saying it was an invalid file.

[CODE][/CODE]

I'm not familiar with the version numbers and as well as the exact source of that code, but in reading the comments in the plugins information, it identifies that the "older" code used direct database queries such as mysql_ and that is the issue reported in that log. Supposedly the GitHub location referenced also in those same comments may have been updated to use regular ZC type queries which are more independent of those type coding issues. Regardless, the version being used has not been updated for php versions beyond at least 5.6, I've forgotten where/when the transition occurred, but the code needs to be updated to work.

dallison:

The Github location points here for the support thread for this 1.5.x version. That is why I posted here.
What is that GitHub location?

If I am looking at the correct GitHub location: https://github.com/scottcwilson/OLD_zen_DropShipPO where files of the same name as described here in this thread, the file of the same name as reported as an issue doesn't have direct database calls (e.g. mysql_query) and instead uses $db type queries. It also identifies a specific forum thread.

It appears that if the files at that location were used, that at least the current issue(s) would be resolved. To download those files, click the big green button on the right side and download as a zip or other type file. Then read through the instructions for installation.

Thank you very much for pointing this out. I used the files in the mid of the page instead of downloading them from the right side (thought they were the same). Would I also need to update the database as well using the install migrate and install sql patches? Trying to decide if I should reinstall everything for a clean install or continue with this one.

Thank you very much for finding my error. I am going to try to install the migrate and upgrade sql patches with the newer files and see what happens.
Again thank you very much.
