Did any one install this manually.  There are some lines that I think I added for Column Controller w Admin v2.2_for_2.2ms2 that I am not sure if I want to change back.  I have used about 10-15  contrbutions so a lot of my files have some modification.  Has anyone seen any issues lately?

Anyone using this contri with osCommerce 2.2-MS2.  I really need help knowing what to take out and what to leave in!

Did you install it on a clean install?

Can you tell me if you installed it on a clean OSC install or modified?  The file has a project revision name as OSC2.2 MS1.  I am using MS2.  If I install this over it will it mess something else up?

Ok!  I got it working.  Instructions not too clear for a newbie.  Could use some improving.  Also, for any new people, if you modified your files manually, you do not want to copy and paste those perticular files from the folder as this will write over your files!!!

i tried long time ago ths contrig in 1.1g version, let me tell you the pbe i had and if you can answer me :

1. losing cart when reading a news
2. losing cart when changing the language
3. multilanguage wasn't working as easy as when adding a product , meaing u got a field for each language installed in osc
4. no WUSIWYG editor incorporated
5. THE WORST : all the file use the same naming pattern than the information.php included in osc, that mean, u replace the old one with this one , no way to test, or activate and then desactivate if you want the contrib .

any infos on the new version if someone tested ?

Congratulations.

This is a very useful contribution. I somewhat extended it to also support an accompaning image, which may be changed or deleted in an edit procedure. Furthermore, I added an extra component, which (in such a case) is essential, e.g. a WYSIGW editor.

Thanks!!!

It would great if someone could add in the capability to create unlimited infoboxes.  I thought cont had this but it's still very useful for me.

[azer]

for the problem of losing the cart, they add the same with another contribution u can read here :
http://forums.oscommerce.com/index.php?sho...31&#entry776731

i post a copy of their code if it give us any idea

Think I've cracked the problem. Seems to be in line 76 where the link is created.
$page_list .= '<tr><td class="infoBoxContents"><a target="'.$target.'" href="' . tep_href_link($link) . '">' . $page['pages_title'] . '</a></td></tr>';


I updated link 76 to:
$page_list .= '<tr><td class="infoBoxContents"><a target="'.$target.'" href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_PAGES, 'pages_id=' .$page['pages_id'], 'NONSSL') . '">' . $page['pages_title'] . '</a></td></tr>';

Also, theres a typo in the readme.

For this line of the file your suppost be adding the databases doesnt exist, its database_tables.

4f)  Add to includes/databases.php

4f) Add to includes/database_tables.php (I think).

Thank you,
Michael

[itelectr]

Hi, I updated the Information Pages Unlimited to v1.2, but there is a problem, I don't know what's happened.

Please have a look the site: http://www.holaic.ch/shop/catalog/sitemap.php?language=en

In this page we can see there is 5 directories in "infomation", but there is only two on the left column...

Thanks in advance.

You need to make sure you have set the page in admin to live ( click the Green button)   for it to show in the catalog

Hi nigecon, I am sure that I set the page in admin to live.
The problem is I can see the created pages (with Information Pages Unlimited v1.2) on the left column but I lost the other pages like: Shipping & Returns; Privacy Notice; Sales conditions...

I really don't know what's happened.

3 Questions on information pages unlimited 1.2:

1. Does this program add a box or replace the existing information box? if so do I lose the content?

2. Is this program compatible with zz_faq ?

3. Regarding /includes/boxes/information.php

my information.php file is already modified and this program wants to overwrite.

here is what the IPU file has:

<?php
  $info_box_contents = array();
  $info_box_contents[] = array('text' => BOX_HEADING_INFORMATION);

  new infoBoxHeading($info_box_contents, false, false);

  // Retrieve information from Info table
  $informationString = "";

	$information_query = tep_db_query("SELECT information_id, info_title FROM " . TABLE_INFORMATION . " WHERE visible='1' and languages_id ='" . $languages_id . "' ORDER BY v_order");
  while($information = tep_db_fetch_array($information_query)) {
	  $informationString .= '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_INFORMATION, 'info_id=' . $information['information_id']) . '">' . $information['info_title'] . '</a><br>';
  }

  $info_box_contents = array();
  $info_box_contents[] = array('text' =>  $informationString .
										  '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_CONTACT_US) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_CONTACT . '</a>');

  new infoBox($info_box_contents);
?>

Here is what I have existing:

<?php
  $info_box_contents = array();
  $info_box_contents[] = array('text' => BOX_HEADING_INFORMATION);

  new infoBoxHeading($info_box_contents, false, false);

  $info_box_contents = array();
  $info_box_contents[] = array('text' => '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_SHIPPING) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_SHIPPING . '</a><br>' .
										 '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRIVACY) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_PRIVACY . '</a><br>' .
										 '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_CONDITIONS) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_CONDITIONS . '</a><br>' .
										 '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_CONTACT_US) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_CONTACT . '</a><br>'.
										 '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_FAQ, '', 'NONSSL') . '">' . BOX_FAQ . '</a><br>' );


  new infoBox($info_box_contents);
?>

Is this the proper merge so that I retain my existing pages?  or do I just use the IPU file without a merge?

<?php
  $info_box_contents = array();
  $info_box_contents[] = array('text' => BOX_HEADING_INFORMATION);

  new infoBoxHeading($info_box_contents, false, false);

  // Retrieve information from Info table
  $informationString = "";

	$information_query = tep_db_query("SELECT information_id, info_title FROM " . TABLE_INFORMATION . " WHERE visible='1' and languages_id ='" . $languages_id . "' ORDER BY v_order");
  while($information = tep_db_fetch_array($information_query)) {
	  $informationString .= '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_INFORMATION, 'info_id=' . $information['information_id']) . '">' . $information['info_title'] . '</a><br>';
  }

  $info_box_contents = array();
  $info_box_contents[] = array('text' =>  $informationString .
										  '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_SHIPPING) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_SHIPPING . '</a><br>' .
										  '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRIVACY) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_PRIVACY . '</a><br>' .
										  '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_CONDITIONS) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_CONDITIONS . '</a><br>' .
										  '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_CONTACT_US) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_CONTACT . '</a><br>'.
										  '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_FAQ, '', 'NONSSL') . '">' . BOX_FAQ . '</a><br>' );

//										  '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_CONTACT_US) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_CONTACT . '</a>');

  new infoBox($info_box_contents);
?>

Thank you in advance

Hi

Yes it changes the code in  /includes/boxes/information.php  page and replaces it with Info pages link and a contact us link

You can add your old Links back into the code on  /includes/boxes/information.php if you want and or you may need to add back some for other contabs e.g. Voucher and coupons

Or the easyer way is just to re write the missing pages in the Info pages place so it will make edtied them easyer in future

I have been using the Spaw Editor, http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,2963 ( http://www.solmetra.com/en/disp.php/en_pro.../en_spaw_about/ ), with no problems. The only problem is that it turns every text area field into an HTML editor. This can be fixed with some mods to the html_output.php file. Good luck.
