Better Together Contribution Support Thread

Response by PM.

Hello

Since I have installed Better together+admin+center box + preview the add-on : jqzoom has stopped working....

I can't find one file that could have been overwritten by yours, could it come from the CJ loader?

this module can be find here:

Thanks

:unsure:

Haven't heard of this problem before. Please not e that my commercial mods are supported by email and not on the Zen Cart forum though.

Disregard my message, I am stupid or tired or both, I had forgotten to upload the CJ loader.... everything is working fine and your modules are really great

Sorry!

Here's hoping for some inspiration/help...

I have installed Better Together on my store and am running some tests, but it is not working correctly and I'm unclear what I've missed. I have followed all the install and setup instructions, and looked on the forum.

The actual Better Together marketing text is appearing correctly on products in a given category for which I have then said another specific product will be FREE. So I used the cat_to_prod function. Whilst this is working ok, it all goes a bit funny on the check out page... I have the Reward Points Full Suite Add-On/Contrib running on my store (have had for a long time and it works fine), but the problem now is that the Reward Points being given are those of both products in the cart - including the one that is FREE, as a result of the Better Together reductions.

Has this issue been raised before and is there a recommended solution for Better Together when used in conjunction with the Reward Points Full Suit add-on?

I'm running Zen 1.3.9f.

Rewards Points doesn't know about Better Together. What you're seeing is the expected behavior.

There is no easy way for Rewards Points to deduce which products should and which should not attract points.

Ok Scott, I thought as much, but thought it best to check.

I assume the same is true then for FREE Shipping....? I.e. If the product which is being offered is FREE, but takes the order total over the FREE ship threshold, then ideally we wouldn't want the FREE Shipping to kick in as essentially they don't qualify... But the Order Total module doesn't know this, as it see the total order including the item which Better Together has discounted out.

Thanks for the explanation.

It is a great contrib BTW.... We're just trying to work out how best to implement and roll it out on our store. We're desperate to get this in place as we're setting up some new promotions accross a whole category range.

Same explanation. None of these things know about the others.

Many thanks for the explanation, it is clear now.

Better Together is five years old today!

Thanks for this great Mod!

If I wanted products from a specific category to rotate randomly in the product info page when another category were visited. How would I achieve that?

I mean sort of like this:
In product info page --> category 1 --> products from category --> 2 rotating randomly (exactly like the new products center box that has got rotating products).

That's kind of off topic for Better Together. You want to look at how (for example) the featured products centerbox works, and model your code after that.

Thank you for pointing me the right direction!

I've installed this module a number of times without any problems, until today.

When I customize tpl_product_info_display.php, the product pages stop displaying all sideboxes. When I remove the BT code from the page, they all come back.

Zen is 1.3.8 and using BT 2.3b

You likely have an error in your customization. Look in the cache folder to see if there's a php error file.

I also installed the Better Together Admin and it turns out I skipped the 'includes' directory. Once all the files are in the right place, it works like a charm!

Hi there,
Have been using Better Together for a while to discount products, but have just decided to use the cross sell option as well, everything seems to be working fine apart from the fact that the "Items you might also be interested in" box lists the products in one column to the left:

http://thelakedistrictwalker.co.uk/cart/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=63_89&products_id=1529

Not sure what I'm doing wrong!

Many thanks
John

Perhaps you have customized includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/common/tpl_columnar_display.php
Try removing your customization and see if it looks better.

Thanks for the quick reply,
I've tried re-uploading the original tpl_columnar_display.php to make sure and there's no change, but this has had no effect?

I had a similar display problem with attribute images displaying as a single column. I had to edit
/includes/modules/attributes.php to remove a <br class="clearBoth" /> that was causing the problem.

You may need to edit your includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/common/tpl_columnar_display.php
