Strange error... As I see it, the code tries to delete the directory ".." To fix this, edit application_top.php: FIND (As the error states, around line 374) if ($file != ('.htaccess') && filemtime(TMP_DIR . $file) < strtotime(OPTIONS_TYPE_PURGETIME)) { unlink(TMP_DIR . $file); // Delete file from server... AND REPLACE WITH: if ($file != ('.htaccess') && $file != ('.') && $file != ('..') && filemtime(TMP_DIR . $file) < strtotime(OPTIONS_TYPE_PURGETIME)) { unlink(TMP_DIR . $file); // Delete file from server... (Didn't test this, but I'm pretty sure it'll work)

No, there's currently no way to set the default option... I'll have to look into that (as it is a very useful feature) No, there's also no way to order the attributes of a certain option... This function will need an extra field for Products Option Values to set the sort order. I'll look into this as well. Both problems have to do with the same code, so I'll try to add both functions at the same time. Don't know when I'll be done though, and there's no real "quick fix" for either problem...

Hi Rich, I don't think you duplicated anything, but something is wrong with the Image Preloading... Did you merge the .css file? All possible Images are preloaded when the page loads, in a (by css) hidden field.

Hi everyone, I've been very busy with my work, and don't have the time to offer any support. Just a few things I'd like to say: * If you get an error, beginning with "1054 - Unknown column", the SQL is not (fully) inserted. Check if all the tables have been created! * to Rosemary: Multiple images SHOULD be possible... I can imagine the mistake is made somewhere in option_types.php, where the fields are named and numbered. I could have messed up somewhere... Sorry I can't help much more than this, I'll probably be busy for another few weeks...

Yeah... And it should be "universal" product to product...

This contribution uses it's own sorting method. Sorting can be set through the Options (so not on a 'per-product' basis), in the products_attributes page. So you can, for example, set the Text fields to always show on top, and the Text Area always on the bottom. This way you can keep a catalog-wide, consistent order of showing options. I can imagine, if merged with another contribution which sorts the Options, some unexpected results can occur...

That was not the only mistake I made... :blush: That's why I immediately released Option Types v2.1.1 :lol: Changes made: added SQL from the Post above, and the following: In the file catalog/includes/modules/option_types.php FIND: $Image_Dropdown_ID = 'id_' . $product_info['products_id'] . '[' . $ProdOpt_ID . ']'; And REPLACE with: $Image_Dropdown_ID = 'id[' . $ProdOpt_ID . ']';

OOOPSSSssss!!!! It just occurred to me, that I forgot to include the SQL Query in the installation guide for people Updating an already installed Option Types v2!!! Here is the SQL to run: INSERT INTO configuration VALUES ('', 'Option Type Image - Images Directory', 'OPTIONS_TYPE_IMAGEDIR', 'images/options/', 'What directory to look for Option Type Images.<br>This is where the Images should be stored.', (SELECT configuration_group_id FROM configuration_group WHERE configuration_group_title = 'Option Types'), '9', now(), now(), NULL, NULL), ('', 'Option Type Image - Images Prefix', 'OPTIONS_TYPE_IMAGEPREFIX', 'Option_', 'What prefix to use when looking for Option Type Images.<br>This is what the Image\'s name should begin with.', (SELECT configuration_group_id FROM configuration_group WHERE configuration_group_title = 'Option Types'), '10', now(), now(), NULL, NULL), ('', 'Option Type Image - Images Name', 'OPTIONS_TYPE_IMAGENAME', 'Name', 'What Option Value item to use as Name for the Option Type Images.<br>When set to "Name", the images should be named: "PREFIX"-"Option value name"-"LanguageID".jpg (Option_RedShirt_1.jpg)<br>When set to "ID", the images should be named: "PREFIX"-"Option value ID"-"LanguageID".jpg (Option_5_1.jpg)', (SELECT configuration_group_id FROM configuration_group WHERE configuration_group_title = 'Option Types'), '11', now(), now(), NULL, 'tep_cfg_select_option(array(\'Name\', \'ID\'),'), ('', 'Option Type Image - Use Language ID', 'OPTIONS_TYPE_IMAGELANG', 'Yes', 'Use language ID in Option Type Images Names?<br>This is only needed if different images are used per Language (images with text for example).', (SELECT configuration_group_id FROM configuration_group WHERE configuration_group_title = 'Option Types'), '12', now(), now(), NULL, 'tep_cfg_select_option(array(\'Yes\', \'No\'),');

As promised.... I just released "Option Types v2.1.0"!!! The download includes the full installation, and a guide for people who want to upgrade an already installed Option Types v2. Setting the correct image names, and linking them to the Options is somewhat "hands on", but I think I described it pretty well in the ReadMe (included in the download) * You have the ability to set the Images directory (for separating the Option Images from the rest (if you want to ;) )) * You can also set the Images Prefix (also to see some separation between the Option Images and the other images) * The images can be the same for all languages, or you can set things up to use another image for each language! Have fun everyone!

I've had that question PM'ed to me 3 times now!!! I'll post this reply on the support forum too, so everybody knows... That function is not included in Option Types v2, because it's horribly nasty, dirty and totally unconfigurable hard-coded into the site. It uses Javascript to switch the images, and I think I'll be adding it to the contribution soon, but at the moment.... It's just nasty... I'll look into adding and releasing the first (probably basic) image switching functionality this week. (Already have some ideas in mind ;) )

That's normal behaviour! When you add a product (is not yet in Database) there's no product ID to link the attributes to! When the product is saved (and a Product ID is available) the attributes can be added.

Just had a mailing with someone, who had enormous troubles getting Linked Products to work. The problems seem to be in eval() functions in the code, and this will need some work. I can not reproduce the troubles, but it seems the string passed to eval is not correct...

Ok. Be an ignorant ass... I'm not just typing stuff here to annoy you, and waste my precious time... :angry: As you know so much better how this stuff works, I'll let you figure it out by yourself.... Geez... That's the thanks I get for my efforts... Being called a liar... If I don't WANT to help you, I wouldn't reply, or I would just say so!

I'll say it again: YOU CAN NOT ADD MORE ATTRIBUTES OF THE SAME OPTION AT THE SAME TIME!!!! What you want, is only possible by making a lot of OPTIONS to each product: Pepperoni --> yes/no Cheese --> yes/no Mushrooms --> yes/no YOU CAN NOT do this: (if you want customers to be able to select multiple options...) Toppings --> Pepperoni/Cheese/Mushrooms That's just the way osCommerce works!!!

Hi there, I actually designed the checkboxes to be a one-choice option (Example: you want giftwrapping? Yes/No) As you can only select ONLY ONE Attribute per Option, Multiple checkboxes will not work! (Color: Red, Blue, Green or Yellow ---> You CAN NOT select Red AND Green, just 1 at a time...) I recommend you use Radio's instead....

This is a standard setting: In Admin --> Configuration --> Option Types --> Use Progress bars?

Thanks for mentioning it!

Don't know what you've done, but somehow you have placed the file /catalog/includes/application_top.php in the directory /catalog/admin/includes/application_top.php.... I advise you totally re-install, and make sure you place the files in the correct folders!!! You could also re-copy all files, except the install folder and the configure.php files from the clean osCommerce, and the copy the files from the Option Types v2 Contribution... That'll save you installing osCommerce, and running the extra SQL...

No, there's no way of doing that now... Also, I'm NOT going to implement stock-tracking. I was thinking of devising a way to show Products as Options. The best way to implement stock tracking, will indeed be combining QTPro... If you run into problems with the merging, don't hesitate to ask for some help. (I can imagine other people wanting the same thing)

Use a comparison software like kDiff3 This allows you to compare (and merge) 3 files at the same time. Take the original osC file, the file with code you want to add, and the File you want to add to. You'll see the differences between them, and you'll be able to evaluate what parts need to be merged. By the way, install instructions would only tell you where to look in what file (In short, it tells you the difference between this, and an original file which is exactly the same thing kDiff3 will do for ya) Can't help you out any more than that, as I have better things to do than writing install instructions. And by the way, Attributes and Option Types does nearly do the same as Option Types v2, but I don't think you'll have a breeze installing that one!

Dude! This is the Official Support Thread for Option Types v2!! As stated in the 3rd post: http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/6818

That does seem to be the case. Your suspicion that it's just application_top could be correct though. You could try using the one supplied with Option Types, and check what other changes (if any) you need after that.

As the error says, the column for option comments does not exist. You probably didn't execute the SQL file...

Then why do I see the error message on your site: 1146 - Table 'aj23_d60527111.TABLE_AUTHORS' doesn't exist This certainly has nothing to do with Option Types, neither does the messed up template... If the problem is in application_top.php you should examine ALL the changes made to that file...

Good point! Forgot about that! :blush: This only means this should REALLY be a configurable setting!
