How long does it take for a module to get approved?

Hi,

I submitted a module that my company developed for Zen Cart over a month ago and I still don't see it in the downloads section. I never heard back from anyone at Zen Cart regarding the module. Is there some other step involved in getting a module approved?

Hi buysafe_chris,

Modules usually take 24-48 hours to approve, but may take longer. It sounds like there may have been an error when you submitted your module.

Have you tried contacting one of the Zen Cart team members?

Hi Alex,

I guess this thread did the trick. The module was just approved.

Thanks.

Re: How long does it take for a module to get approved?

You should note:- the BuySafe module doesn't work with Register Globals off

  • a sidebox was hard-coded into column_left.php but should have been made into a new sidebox instead
  • there are a lot of core-code changes which will have to be maintained during a site upgrade. Pay careful attention when upgrading. It's pretty clear that the module was written for another shopping cart system and appears to simply have been adapted for use in Zen Cart.

Hello Kuroi,

I have created a support thread. Yes, we will work with merchants and their developers to provide assistance in activating and keeping the module running.
