Product Type Book (by moku)

Exactly same problem as me, I never did resolve it however felt the problem was with the DB.
I would like to try it although I have now created my own product types & search filters now.

If yuo sort it please report back

I'm having some luck working my way through a copy of collect_info transferring code into it bit by bit. So far I have a partial collect_info form displaying followed by the page footer.

I've reached as far as the 'for' statement around line 1025. It seems, to me, that the 'end for' may be missing or that the error is somewhere in the code following the 'for' statement. If it's a missing 'end for' I have no idea exactly where it should be, yet. It could even be a missing end of another statement.

I'll continuing working on it, but someone else may spot the real solution before me. I certainly wouldn't claim to be fluent in PHP.

I now have all form fields displaying as I believe was intended. IIRC it was just a missing '}'.

I'll do a comparison between the original and my new version of collect_info tomorrow and post the results here. :cool:

Here's my version of admin\includes\modules\product_book\collect_info. I'm not entirely sure why it's working, but it is for me.

I changed some instances of '<?' to '<?php' and I'm sure I added a '}' somewhere, but I can't find it now. :wacko:

HI guys!

Has anyone gotten the SEO URL's for this to work?

I've installed the latest Ultimate URL and then the book SEO. The problem however is that I receive a 404 Page not found error, but otherwise the URL's are correctly "changed".

Any advice on that?

I could not get this module to work without major issues. So, I had numinix do it for a fee. He got it to work, but I do not understand how to use it. I went through the files, but still at at a loss and looked thru this forum. Does anyone have an idea how to use these functions and if there is a file I may be missing explaining it?

Any help would be greatly appreciated! I have a Christian bookstore and have lots of things I need to show for Bibles and books. I need to add items like binding, cover, color, closure, UPC, EAN, ISBN13, reference, red letter, ribbon, etc.

Thanks, Kim

Has anyone been able to get MRSP pricing working with product book? I am able to see retail/you save/new price in admin area but it will show it when preview product or customer area. I think I may be missing a file to modify.

I changed these files to match instructions.

admin/includes/languages/english/product_book
admin/includes/modules/product_book/collect_info
includes/languges/english/product_book_info

I could not locate an equivlant file located for book files under:

admin/modules/update_product
admin/modules/product/collect_info
includes/functions/functions_prices

Thanks, Kim

This is still driving me nuts. :frusty::frusty:

I used the developers tool and found retail price in these files. I went back through Product book module downloads and could not find where I am missing anything.

Can someone please check against their files to see what one I am missing or is wrong?

Regular products:
/includes/languages/temp file/english.php
Line #69 : define('TEXT_PRODUCT_MSRP', 'Retail Price: ');

includes/languages/english.php
Line #69 : define('TEXT_PRODUCT_MSRP', 'Retail Price: ');

Product Book module:
includes/languages/english/product_book_info.php
Line #50 : define('TEXT_PRODUCT_MSRP', 'Retail Price: ');

includes/languages/english/product_info.php
Line #20 : define('TEXT_PRODUCT_MSRP', 'Retail Price: ');

Thanks, Kim

Does anyone know how to get "Retail Price:" to show on the product page? All I have is dollar amount in the middle of nowhere with space all around it.

The MSRP mod works by changing how the price is done in the function... make the edits to includes\functions\functions_prices.php from the mod and it should show up. I'd show you mine, but I've done it in a different way.

What am I looking for the in the functions_prices file?

Thanks, Kim

flashy275:

This add on looks perfect for my needs, as anyone tried to get it working on 1.3.9d?
I am working from scratch, new install of ZC along with a new DB but when I try to add a new product type of "book" through admin, I just get a blank page?

New install ZC 1.3.9d
New DB
All files for book product type (V4)
SQL run & all tables created
SQL for dummy authors ect run & ok

All the admin/extras/book(s) are there & accept input no problem

BUT if I try to add a new "product - book" I only get the admin header load, no options for adding a new product.

All other product types still allowme to enter data as required.

I tried 4 complete installs so don't believe there is a missing file.

Any help appreciated thanks

Hi Everyone. I am having exactly the same problem as flashy275. Difference is that I am using latest version of ZenCart, i.e., v1.3.9h

Can anyone shed me/us some light on this? I don't even have an error message. Worth to say I am using latest XAMPP on Windows?

Tomorrow I'll give it a try with LAMPP and report here.

Thank you

Pedro Contente

Welcome to the club Pedro, hopefully someone will suggest an answer as I never did get this to work.

good luck

Hey Flashy!

It is working with latest LAMPP on UBUNTU 10.10. Latest Zencart either.

I followed exactly the same steps as I've followed with XAMPP on Windows and It worked! Even multi-language! I can insert books in English and some other language and it seems to work quite fine.

The only difference between windows and linux was that I replaced file owners and permissions in linux, i.e, the original owner of the files was pcontente (user with which I decompressed the zip file to my Downloads folder) and I changed it to root. In Windows I did nothing regarding permissions as you know in Windows we're all admins!! :)

I am going to play around with a bit!

Cheers,

Pedro Contente
