Tabbed Products Pro (TPP) Contrib - Official Thread

No, that is not it. I installed every file there was...to include the /min directory and cj_loader_install.sql which are not made any mention of in the read me, but it still does not show any tabs on any products. I even installed on a totally different zencart site.

Admin > Configuration > TPP

Everything is set to 1 and the bottom two are product_info and all_tpp_tabs1.css.

It is very strange because in the Page Source I can see all of the tabs and scripting, but it doesn't appear on the browser.

I actually have PHP 5.2.11 on the server.

I actually have PHP 5.2.11 on the server.I still recommend installing v1.05. Folks who've had issues getting 1.06 to install seem to have no issues installing v1.05. Honestly without seeing your store we are all kinda guessing what might be happening. I had all kinds of issues with versions 1.06 - 1.06b, but v 1.06c installed perfectly..

Here's the deal, the ONLY thing you gain from the 1.06 flavors of TPP is the cj_loader app and the ability to create tabs from WordPress posts. These aren't showstoppers IMO.. Roll back to v1.05 and see if you don't have better results..

Wow, that did it! I also noticed that version 1.6 does not have any stylesheet_tpp.css file.

Actually, v1.06 does have css styling.

jeskremer:

Wow, that did it! I also noticed that version 1.6 does not have any stylesheet_tpp.css file.Glad that worked out for you..:clap:

Hello there,

Does anyone have this module to work with Extended Book Product Type by Moku? The tabbed stopped working for it.

All the best...

I am getting ready to load the Book product type. How did you get TPP to work in the first place? :frusty: Also trying to get MSRP to work too....:frusty:

Thanks, Kim

I have a site that uses Paul Hailey's BOOK PRODUCT TYPE. This is an extensive and comprehensive add-on that will turn your zenshop into a proper bookshop.

We have a big problem..

We installed the mod.

but for some reason " add to cart " button is not showing on Product_info_dislay page.

we messed around and noticed that it disappears when we have
" do not duplicate" javascript at the bottom of the file.

if we take

out...."Add to Cart Button " shows up.

but at the same time, everything else is duplicated.

Help in this matter will be greatly appreciated.

Additionally, it works fine in original zen cart Product_info_Display file, but NOT in our custom Template Product_info_Display

any ideas/ thought/ solutions?

I can put my full php code from the file here is someone wants to look at it.

Thank you very much in advance, guys.

Hello,

We have the same Book Product Type but cannot get the Tabbed Products Pro to work on it. Any advice on how I could get it to work?

Thanks

I'm frustrated with this module. I had the lite version installed a few years ago and remember having lots of issues with getting it to run. The instructions on how to install this version are poor and do not at all match up with the files nor make it clear what to do. For example, there are multiple SQL files and it does not make it clear if you are to run upgrade or a different one. Not good. And the list of which files to install does not match up with the list of files included with the download. There are lots of readme files all over the place. A mysterious bunch of files and folders - do we copy those over? It's a mess!

Anyway, like many people in the history of this thread, I got the whole website blank issue. No one has ever really answered that properly except to say go back and see what you did incorrectly. I went through file by file and deleted each one (they were all right where they ought to have been) and when I got to the tpp file and directory under my template, my website just came back. Not good at all! Something is definitely suspect about this way of coding and giving confusing instructions. I guess I'll give it one more shot to remove and put the files over one at a time (what a freaking pain in the tush) and check after each one.

Seriously, fix the documentation and get rid of unnecessary files! And someone please make it clear what makes your whole website disappear!

Respectfully, I get you are frustrated, but screaming (electronically) at a support forum full of VOLUNTEERS is of no benefit to ANYONE.. I believe the issue with the site disappearing could be addressed if you would provide some INFORMATION that the VOLUNTEER community could use to help you figure out the issue.. Here's what would be helpful:

• What version of PHP is running on your webserver??
• What version of TPP are you running??

Seriously, fix the documentation and get rid of unnecessary files! And someone please make it clear what makes your whole website disappear!Exactly who is your request/suggestion/order addressed to??:laugh: This ain't Microsoft.. There is no TEAM of developers taking requests or suggestions here.. Ths is an open source application. This module was written by a VOLUNTEER on their own time.. Please don't take this wrong, but honestly, if you think the readme could be improved, then YOU should VOLUNTEER to submit a new version of this module with an improved readme file. (versus demanding that "someone" do it) I contributed to a module just to improve the readme file because it needed a re-write. No reason why if you feel this is important, that you can't do this too..

That said, provide the information requested, and the community might be able to help..

You are correct in calling me out. I do apologize for being grumpy about it all. It's been a bear of an upgrade (as always, and I've abandoned it many a time) and for whatever reason, pretty much every previously installed optional feature has broken my entire website. Just frustrating.

I could not possibly fix the documentation because I never got the darned thing working. In this long thread, lots of people ask questions on which files go where and the replies are snippy and not specific so after reading through 20 pages, I was feeling not just my own frustration, but that of all the others who were not given answers. I realize it's mostly volunteers. I wish I could help others but I don't have any kind of grasp of anything, just enough to be dangerous. I've just wasted an entire day not getting anything moved forward. :cry:

I also don't make suggestions for any general "someone" to make changes.. This is a volunteer community, WE are the "someone's" who manage the changes...

I don't remember too many snippy posts in THIS support thread.. I believe I got ONE (the deliverer will not be outed by me:laugh:), but I moved on, and I even posted the solution to the issue I was asking about (which I found ON MY OWN).. Bottom line?? I tend to ignore those kinds of posts. They are fairly rare..

I did not see the MSRP pricing or Tabbed Products Pro on your site. How do you show price discounts?

I saw a couple of posts on this...one just recently. Has anyone figured out how to make the Book Product extension work with TPP?

Thank-you

I really like this mod, but I do not know how to get it working with Book product. It does not look very good when some products have Tabs and some without.

What do I need to uninstall?

Thanks, Kim
