Printable Price list :: support thread

That's because there's not a tpl_pricelist_default.php file that's part of the distribution. Are you sure that you uploaded all the pertinent files into the proper directories?

I am also getting this same error / partial blank page on a local 1.5.4 installation when calling http://www.yourdomain.com/index.php?main_page=pricelist in the front end.

Yes, all files have been merged / uploaded as per instructions (and double-checked).

Swapped templates a few times and it is the same result on all templates.

Lines 122, 141 and 249 respectively in includes/templates/TEMPLATE_AS_PER_ABOVE/common/tpl_main_page.php are all calling for

require($body_code);

Tracing $body_code in DTK, I am ending up at /includes/templates/template_default/common/main_template_vars.php

That reads

  if (file_exists(DIR_WS_MODULES . 'pages/' . $current_page_base . '/main_template_vars.php')) { 
    $body_code = DIR_WS_MODULES . 'pages/' . $current_page_base . '/main_template_vars.php'; 
  } else { 
    $body_code = $template->get_template_dir('tpl_' . preg_replace('/.php/', '',$_GET['main_page']) . '_default.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'templates'). '/tpl_' . $_GET['main_page'] . '_default.php'; 
  }

and that file

DIR_WS_MODULES . 'pages/' . $current_page_base . '/main_template_vars.php'

does not exist in the package. Therefore ZC is looking for a corresponding template file and tries to call tpl_pricelist_default.php and that does not exist either, hence the error.

Please correct me if I am wrong.

The pricelist page's processing is similar to the popup-type pages, so the tpl_main_page.php file *should *be loaded from /includes/templates/template_default/pricelist/tpl_main_page.php ... **not **from /includes/templates/{current_template}/common/tpl_main_page.php (which is where the tpl_{current_page_base}_default.php file's load is determined).

That determination happens pretty early in a ZC page-load, handled by /index.php's processing. That said, I'm puzzled by the fact that the page-load is going down the "common" directory processing given that the plugin's files have been uploaded to the proper directories.

FWIW, I just installed and ran the plugin in a (relatively) vanilla ZC 1.5.3 installation and it ran without issue. The /index.php file hasn't changed since dinosaurs roamed the earth (or at least back as far as Zen Cart 1.3.5, which is pretty close).

@frank18, has your site's /index.php file been modified in any way? What other plugins/templates do you have installed? Any changes to /includes/classes/template_func.php?

Thanks lat9

Have not tried this mod in ZC versions 1.5.3 and lower, only in 1.5.4

No modification to the /index.php file, it is still the same version

• @version $Id: index.php 2942 2006-02-02 04:41:23Z drbyte $

Same with /includes/classes/template_func.php - no changes at all.

What puzzles me is that it happens in all 3 templates (see my post above) including the default.

Plugins (store front only): image handler 4, zen lightbox, minimum order - really nothing that would affect the functionality of this mod.

The store has been around since v1.3.7 (2007) and progressively updated to 1.5.4

I will pop this into another local 1.5.4 site on the weekend and see what happens.

Installed on another 1.5.4 local site and have no problem running this plugin - so somewhere in the other site something has gone astray..... :rant::frusty:

Let's keep digging....

Perhaps something in a .htaccess file?

Nope, but very close: permissions!!!! :oops:

Worked a treat on the live server, but the live server automatically assigns the correct permissions to folders and files (755 and 644) whereas the local dev server didn't hence the partial blank page.

@frank18, thanks for following up! Was it the permissions on the /includes/templates/template_default/pricelist folder that was giving you grief?

Yes, that was the culprit....

Thanks, frank18! I'll add a note to the top of the plugin's readme to suggest that permissions on that newly-added folder might need to be checked. What are your host's default permissions?

I've submitted v2.0.1 to the plugins' area for review:

• BUGFIX: Corrected the name of /includes/templates/template_default/pricelist/profile-1.css (was proile-1.css).
• BUGFIX: Include missing language /extra_definition files.
• CHANGE: Open pricelist in a new window when Information sidebox link is clicked. Changed /includes/modules/sideboxes/YOUR_TEMPLATE/information.php.
• CHANGE: Add configuration switch to enable/disable display of the currency symbol in the pricelist display's header. Changed /YOUR_ADMIN/includes/functions/extra_functions/init_price_list_admin.php and /includes/templates/template_default/pricelist/tpl_main_page.php.
• CHANGE: Added permissions-check notice to the top of this readme.

That problem happened locally (local Linux dev server on my computer) - entirely my fault. Had to tweak some settings so it does not bugger me again.

On the live server it worked instantly as permissions are automatically assigned to 755 (folders) and 644 (files).

LOL, noticed that and changed it before I installed it.

v2.0.1 is now available from the Zen Cart plugins.

I installed this 2.0.1 version, but I've come to discover that all the functionality for columns has beens stripped out from the older version. With 3k products between the linked categories, having 2+ columns is a bit of a requirement to not use an entire tree if someone wants to print this.

Is there a somewhat easy way to put this back in? I don't really want to spend hours learning what this code is doing, then recode to put in columns.

I've noted your request in the plugin's GitHub repository (https://github.com/lat9/printable_price_list/issues/7).

Thanks. Didn't know there was a github for it. :)

I've installed that version here, but pages don't seem to break when printing or creating a pdf. Is anyone experiencing this? Please advise.
