Printable Price list :: support thread

having some trouble "updating" options in the admin for this mod. Whenever i make a change and click "update", it takes me back to the main admin page. i can hover over the "cancel" button and see there is a link there.. there is NOT a link when i hover the update button.

Any idea on how i can fix this problem? I have already reinstalled the mod.

Thanks!

You may want to check you file permissions. I do not get a Link on update either and do get a link on cancel. Thus, this must be standard.

This mod uses the default Zen Cart button functions (and yes, some are links and others are not). And this mod does not have any admin updateble files, so I don't think file permissions are an issue.

Do you have the Admin Profiles add on installed? Then check your Admin Profiles settings.

Hi Paulm.. thanks for your response.

I do not have admin profiles add on installed. Also, i have realized it is happening in the "orders" section too, can't delete or confirm deletions.

I'm beginning to think it may have to do with the security patch that was released a few days ago.. and have posted the question in the forum as well. However if you have any suggestions i would gladly entertain them!

Thanks!

sassayone,
That is where I was coming from (the security patch) when I was talking about permissions. However, the patch did not have any effect on this mod for me. And paulm has indicated that "this mod does not have any admin updateble files, so I don't think file permissions are an issue".

It may be that you have an issue that is not with this mod at all, but has an effect this mod. Just a thought.

I have loaded the printable price list......loaded all sql pkgs.....and now have the printable price list profiles show up in the config files.......seems everything is there and enabled. How do I get the price list to print.....tried the suggested links to no avail.

using zen-cart 1.38

Your page location should look something like http://www.centraltrailer.com/index.php?main_page=pricelist and not https://www.centraltrailer.com/cart/ctstore

Are you sure you have configured the mod correctly?

I tried to follow the instructions with the program loaded. Which other configs are there other than the ones listed under configuration ? The address given of course was wrong....was just so you knew where the site was.
Have tried the address:

and others to no avail.

Thanks

1. It is very important that you follow the directions given in the readme.txt file
2. There are no other "configs" other than the ones listed under configuration in your admin.
3. Of course you can make changes in various php/css files that will effect the way the pricelist will be displayed.

I would suggest that you check each file location to make sure they have been placed in the correct directory.

Also, double check that the your edits in your existing files are correct. (Make sure that you are using text editing software that does not add unseen characters to your files- e.g. do not use Microsoft word etc.).

It is also very important (as the author states) "to load pricelist-3.sql (includes three profiles) to your zen-cart database using the zen sql tool (admin=> Tools :: Install SQL Patches). To load the sql (copy and paste into the text area, do NOT use the file upload feature!). In rare cases the tool does not work, use phpMyAdmin in those cases (think about adding the table prefix if needed)."

Followed the directions.....reloaded all files and sqls......put the define in the english.php and the echo file in the template file.....how do you know which template file to put the echo file into ?

put a link in the footer to: index.php?main_page=pricelist.....and get page not found.

Sorry for being so dumb but this seems to be another third party progam I cannot get working.

thanks,

The fact that pricelist is not working is not dumb at all. I looked at your site and it has a number of interesting features.

What troubles me is that you can not directly go to your pricelist URL. I believe that you neither need to add any english.php information, nor do you need to add the a link to your active template files for the price list to be available at index.php?main_page=pricelist. That is what lead me to believe that a file(s) was/were in the wrong place.

Sawhorse

So if I understand you correctly....I need to take out the staments that are shown in the instructions and then try it.

Hope I can find them again.

Otherwise I guess I'll just drop it......another third party progam I cannot get to work.

Thanks for your help.

Martin

Now I really screwed it up.......now when I go to my shopping cart all I get is a blank screen with the following in the upper left corner.

Text_PL_Header_Title

Text_PL_Screen_Intro

How do I get my shopping cart main page back.

Help !

Thanks,
Martin

Martin not really, my point is that the added statement in english.php or the added echo '<br /><a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_PRICELIST) . '">' . CATEGORIES_BOX_HEADING_PRICELIST . '</a>'; to one of the the template files (depending on where you want the link to show up) are not necessary for the Internal Link URL: index.php?main_page=pricelist to function.

If the above is the case then some process in the install may have been incorrectly done.

Just went to your site and at this time your shopping cart seems fine. However, you may want to add information as suggested - "You may want to add some instructions for using the shopping cart here. (defined in includes/languages/english/shopping_cart.php)"

Sawhorse

The instructions say to put the files in the includes folder.
Does the template_default need to go somewhere else.
Which templte file does that go into ?

Seems I cannot get this to work at all.

martin

In the ZIP file you will see a folder named includes.

Under the includes folder you will see 7 file folders. Under most of these folders you will see additional file folders. And under some of them you will see some more folders. Most of the folders are the folders that came with ZC.
Under template_default and under pages you will see a folder named pricelist. This folder is NEW. You must add this folder to your site under the appropriate folder. You can then add the correct files into these folders.

Sawhorse

PS. I hope I am answering the question you asked.

I do understand about the folder template_default and it's contents. I gues I do not understand where to put the contents on my sites files on the server. At the present time the template_default folder is in the ctstore template file as template_default. It is the only folder in that template directory.

The template_default folder is also in the cart template file and has a folder of price list.

I do not know how to tell you any better about my upload.

If you could send me an e-mail maybe I can do a better job.

I am having a bit of trouble understanding the problem. Before I try again it might be a good idea for you to read the following https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=230

You should also look at https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=143

These two tutorials may answer your question.

This is the message:

When I type in the link to the price list I get a page not found error.

www.centraltrailer.com/cart/ctstore/index.php?main_page=pricelist

thanks for trying to help a newbie......its like coding.....seem to have mental block about this

Do I need to send you a picture of the file structure ?Note. when I go to the above address I get redirected to you admin login. You may need to check your .htaccess in your root.
