WishList v0.4 -- v1.3.7 compatible

nicholas84:

Is this distorted table normal?

Mine looks the same.

It has the same stretched look on our site.

For the "2nd page or next" problem I have figured out what is happening but I am so far stumped as how to fix it. If I mouse over the "Next>>" link I read index.php?main_page=un_wishlist_find&sort=1a&page=2. Clicking the link sends me back to the find a link page instead of page 2 or next. However if I choose an option to display the page differently I get this when I mouse over: index.php?main_page=un_wishlist_find&wid=35&sort=1a&page=2. Clicking the link works correctly.
So for some reason the customers id is not getting inserted into the link for the default page. I have gone over all the pages and compared to other similar pages but I'm not getting what bit is missing. Maybe someone can figure this out.

I just downloaded the zip file again and it is identical to the file I downloaded and installed last year. It seems something must be going wrong when you download it. If you can't get it let me know and I will email it to you.

That would be tpl_product_info_display.php in includes/templates/CUSTOM_TEMPLATE/templates directory

It been a yr and a half since I installed this but I thought the wishlist link were on the my account page by default.......hmmmmm

I've been searching the boards and can't seem to figure out exactly WHICH files I need to edit and WHAT exactly I need to do to them.

Here's what I need to do:

1. Find the stylesheet for the WISHLIST tables (when I click on 'MANAGE MY WISHLISTS' alternate lists are showing up with a WHITE background and I need to know where I can change the colors. I need them to be a dark background since the links are a LIGHT YELLOW color and can't be seen on the white background.)

2. Add a 'WISHLIST' link to my header along side the Home and LogIn links.

3. I am using CSS buttons and have added an 'Add to Wish List' LINK to my product pages but I would really like it to be a CSS button that looks like all the rest and I would like it to be positioned elsewhere on the page like perhaps directly under the Add To Cart button.

I'm using Zencart version 1.3.8

Here is a link to my site if it helps: http://www.craftmagick.com

Any help would be welcomed and appreciated very much!

Zencart and the Wishlist mod ROCK!

ScrapbookSupplies:

It's me again. I just played with mine wishlist some more and thought you might benefit from what I did - it will at least give you a starting point. I changed things up a little bit from what the readme file said, and the link that I put at the top of my index page is a bit different than what a true-blue Zenner would probably due, but I am rookie, so bare with me.

First, for the link at the top of the page (where your home, my account, log in/out and checkout links are), I put just a plain "hard link" to the wishlist 'summary' page. So, in the includes/templates/your-template/common?tpl_header, I sneaked a line in on line 75:

I also went to the "My Account Page" and put the same string of code in there, so customers will see a link to their wishlists when they view the things on their account. This file is at: includes/templates/your-template/templates/account_default.php.

Then, I took the code that the author gave (specifically for this area) which is for adding items to a wishlist, and added it to my product_info page, as it made more sense to have a hyperlink to add to the list there, and a link to view the list up at the top. Changing this into a button would not be hard to do (you could copy the instructions for this task from (I beleive) the "hints and tips" mod - One of the add ons that I have installed on my product page came w/additional instructions to make the link a button, I can't remember which one, you can look at my site if you want - sorry!

Anyway, this is the code for ADDING an item to the wishlist, which after the buyer clicks the link to add the item they are directed to the list itself. I added this to: includes/templates/your-template/templates/product_info_display.php. I put mine on line 249, so it would be at the bottom underneath all of my buttons.

Finally, I remember a little more on the .css with this mod. You need to edit the stylesheet that this author provided with the package if you need it to match your site. Most of the stylesheet contains basic things, there are only a few lines with colors on them, you should be able to weed through that quickly. It's in the download at: templates/classic/css.

I know this doesn't exactly address your post 100% but hopefully it will get you started on the right path to where you need to go to get this add on working for you. It's really a very detailed wishlist - I had no idea until I started playing with it today.

Good luck!

PS. My site is not yet live, so you can come over and play if you want to see these changes in action. http://www.scrapbooksuppliesdirect.com/shopping - If you register to test, please use a generic or silly name so I know it's okay to delete it before we go live.

Thank you VERY VERY VERY much ScrapbookSupplies. I really appreciate your time AND the help. Almost all of the suggestions worked very well and I have implemented them into my site. I do things like you... improvisation that would make Zenfollowers shudder :blush: but we've gotta do what we've gotta do to get things done :smile:

The only area I am still challenged with is the stylesheet. I was successfully able to change the background colors for the Products List BUT the Multiple wish lists listing is still showing the alternate WHITE background (I guess for odd/even rows)

I have gone through my stylesheet.css AND the style_un_classic.css for the last 2 hours and changed every reference to light colored rows/backgrounds and STILL the alternate lists under the multiple wishlist view are still LIGHT....

aaahhhh.... I am remiss to even ask for suggestions after all of the time and help you have already offered.

I love Zencart but sometimes these 'little' tweaks make me feel like I'm :frusty:

LOL....

Thanks again for all your help and have a beautiful evening.

Zencart ROCKS!

My headings are all off... I guess the tables?

This is in my admin:

HEADING_TITLETEXT_DELIMITERDefault

* ENTRY_CUSTOMER
* ENTRY_COMMENT
* ENTRY_DEFAULT1
* ENTRY_PUBLIC1

How do I fix this?

It's on my site too.

Home :: NAVBAR_TITLE
HEADING_TITLE

TEXT_DESCRIPTION

• Required information
  FORM_TITLE
  FORM_LABEL_EMAIL *
  FORM_LABEL_MESSAGE

I reinstalled it and it fixed it in the admin but the website store is still showing those labels instead of the text.

ScrapbookSupplies:

Oh goodness, No problem at all! I am so glad to be of help to someone. :smile: I have gotten a lot of help here and would like to pass it on.

I am not too savvy with the .css but since I have been here I have had several Zenner's point me to a cheat sheet on the .css that has been a true saving grace. It's an add on that works with Fire Fox. Several months ago I was very reluctant to even download Fire Fox and finally did so because I was forced to for a program and I am so glad that I did, so don't be afraid to download it if you haven't tried it yet.

Anyway, with the newest version of FireFox there is a web developer's add on called FireBug that you can download. Once you have that you can navigate to your site, open the second wishlist (or whatever page is troubling you), point your mouse at the specific item, right click and select "inspect element". A little screen will pop up at the bottom and tell you exactly where in your stylesheet (the name of the item and the line number) this item is being controlled from. Even better yet, you can edit your stylesheet right there in Fire Fox to see if what you are changing is how you want it (the changes do not actually change your stylesheet - you make the changes, and when you get what you want then open the real deal up and make the change). It's amazing! It takes the guess work out of it for those of us that do not know how to edit css very well.

Hope this helps! :P

Thank you again, Scrapbook... I really appreciate the tip and have downloaded the FireBug add-on and it is absolutely fabulous and truly a timesaver. Thank you so much for taking the time to offer these suggestions.

Zencart ROCKS!

Fixed my problem, it was a space at the end of the php file causing the labels to be undefined. I use dreamweaver. Oh well it works!

I have a problem with the wishlist find so I have posted below

I Have the same problem! Can anyone help us???
Thanks in advance!

If you flip views (extended to compact) I bet it works then. This is a bug of some sort and I'm not sure anyone has fixed it yet.

If you click the shop on this post http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=81080 the autor seems to have solved the bug, but I ignore how!

Please help me!

At least I can swithc in compact view for default? How can I do?

Sorry for my english! Thanks in advance.

Does anyone know who to add the product attributes to the wish list?

Kindly reply back to me please:

How can I make sure that the VIEW is always set to EXTENDED and never have the compact option available?

The reason is that all our products have attributes. With extended view, the user can select attributes. but in compact, it goes straight to the shopping cart without attributes.

Please tell me..i am not a coder so please help me with the location of the code.

would be nice to know how to change the default order for extended and compact, for now I need to only allow compact, when it pulls the picture in, the screen blows out to the right as the picture is large, but I need the pictures to be big and cant change them to fit the wishlist.
Now if the wish list could use thumbs instead, that would be wonderful.....:smile:
anyone know how to...?

OK guys - I really must be missing something here. I have uploaded files as per instructions. I have run the sql as normal. I have gone into admin and 'switched on' the new side box as instructed. Now what?, as I can see no mention of the wishlist on my site at all!! What am I doing. Am I supposed to see a link in the newly created side box?

For once I am totally confused. Can somebody tell me what I am doing wrong please or what I should be seeing after installing this mod.

Many thanks (ps I am standing by and getting ready to be told what a muppet I am for forgetting something obvious)!!

Rob

did you click on any product? this is when the sidebox will appear,

it has its quirks, like no real way to look at your wishlist once you put something in it, I added a hard link to the menu bar, it doesnt seem to be available until you add another product, there should be a link in My Account .
The tables are too big for the template, most all pictures will cause the template to go out of proportions it will cut real deep in the right side of the template pushing everything out of whack.
I went in and removed the call to the pictures, it should be using the thumbnails and not the full size picture

seems the member that has this site has solve a few problems and I would like it too :smile:
