Hi Rob The latest version for osc2.3 is KissMT_1.0_r76. The latest version for osc2.2 is KissMT_1.0_r72_RC (which I am using) I found the problem – I had changed // product_reviews_info.php define( 'KISSMT_PRODUCT_REVIEWS_INFO_TEXT', 'Product review by %s' ); in \includes\languages\english\kissmt.php Because the customers name was not included in the meta tags I was getting duplicates when a product gets more that one review. All sorted now. :thumbsup: Thanks. Ken

Hi Rob Yeah, been a while. I hope everything is OK with you. Dev site or Forum? Re KissMT I started to get duplicates on product reviews that had more than one review. I recall that the customers name was added to avoid this so I downloaded the latest version KissMT_1.0_r72_RC and installed it; however I still cannot get the customers name in the meta tags. Lines 61 and 62 are doing nothing. I have not altered anything. It is how I downloaded it. Regards Ken

Hi Robert. Please can you take another look at the module - product_reviews_info.php Lines 61 and 62 are doing nothing if ( tep_not_null( $product_results['reviews_text'] ) ) { } Also, I cannot get the customers name to be added to the review meta tags. I seem to recall that I initially removed the customers name deliberately however this causes duplicates when a product gets more than one review. I wanted to put the customers name back into the meta tags to avoid this. Regards Ken

Hi Sam Please disregard my last post. I tried the code on the server and it works fine. It must be a problem with xampp only. Regards. Ken

Hi Sam. Try this url through the canonical code http://localhost/test231/product_reviews.php?cPath=1_7&products_id=376 It gives me http://localhost/test231/test231/product_reviews.php?cPath=1_7&products_id=376 The ‘url’ is one that Google found on my site!! Regards Ken

Hi Sam Welcome Back :thumbsup: That’s true, but they all use the outdated productListingBox. It would be nice to see a grid contribution using the jquery ui Regards Ken

Hi Sara KissER Error Handling & Debugging works fine in Admin Just follow the install instructions again substituting Catalog with Admin. Regards Ken

Hi Jim I had the same problem Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class language in C:\xampp\htdocs\ccb231\includes\classes\language.php on line 16 I uninstalled the box and then re-installed it and now its working fine. I hope this helps you find the problem. Regards Ken

Hi Fancybox may be coming to V2.3 as standard code. The changes required are here. http://github.com/haraldpdl/oscommerce2/commit/582dcb56bf6ffdceb8741cc362cd876e9ba24c1f The way the images are held in the database is different from the way that Sam did it. All we need is a script to convert the database. Regards Ken

Hi. Thanks for a great contribution and thanks for adding Unlimited Image support. Unlimited Images support for existing blob images is working great and new images can be added to the existing images in the Blob. However there seems to be a problem with Unlimited Images when the Blob is empty. If the blob is empty then EP changes the SQL from [bLOB - NULL] to [bLOB - 17 B] and this causes an unwanted non-image thumbnail to be displayed in product info. Can anyone help to correct this? Thanks Ken

Hi. A big Thank You to Sam for another great contribution. However Sam appears to have gone AWOL. I’ve not seen him on the forum in months. Although I am no programmer I think I have managed to upgrade this contribution to V1.3.1. which has swf support. This is what I did. Download the latest version of Fancybox from their website (V1.3.1) Extract the zip file. Upload the fancybox folder to your images folder Download the latest version of jquerie from their website (V1.4.2) (or copy the original file from images/js) And save this to your images/fancybox folder In product info.php Change these lines <script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo DIR_WS_IMAGES ?>js/jquery.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo DIR_WS_IMAGES ?>js/jquery.fancybox.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo DIR_WS_IMAGES ?>js/jquery.easing.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo DIR_WS_IMAGES ?>js/jquery.easydrag.handler.beta2.js"></script> <link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php echo DIR_WS_IMAGES ?>js/fancybox.css" type="text/css" media="screen"> to this <script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo DIR_WS_IMAGES ?>fancybox/ jquery-1.4.2.min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo DIR_WS_IMAGES ?>fancybox/jquery.fancybox-1.3.1.pack.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo DIR_WS_IMAGES ?>fancybox/jquery.mousewheel-3.0.2.pack.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo DIR_WS_IMAGES ?>fancybox/jquery.easing-1.3.pack.js"></script> <link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php echo DIR_WS_IMAGES ?>fancybox/jquery.fancybox-1.3.1.css" type="text/css" media="screen"> That’s All. If everything is working OK then you can delete the old images/js folder There is more info on all of the new features at the fancybox website. Hope this helps Regards Ken

Hi Eric. The security Pro code belongs in catalog/includes/application_top.php The logger class and Backup Manager code belongs in admin/includes/application_top.php It appears you have saved your admin/includes/application_top.php file into the catalog/includes folder. Regards Ken

Hi Sam I was about to post the same concerns when Heather posted. The code changes work great Thanks Regards Ken

Hi Steve It does appear that there is nothing to worry about as I have never seen msnbot with an item in the shopping cart I thought this was a spiders.txt problem because IP 207.46.12.160 is seen as a guest. I will take a look at the ‘Who's Online 3.5.4’ code and see if I can find the problem Thanks for your help Regards Ken

Hi Steve I agree, I can’t see anything in the log either. The only evidence I have is that sometimes I see MSN Bot in ‘Who's Online 3.5.4’ with a session. If I see it happen again I will try to get a screenshot Regards Ken

Hi Steve Thanks for all your hard work keeping this list up to date I have also noticed MSN bot coming to my site with a session (although most of the time it is recognised as a spider) I saw it happen again this morning and so I have attached part of my logfile in the hope that it will help to solve the problem The Spiders.txt at the time this logfile was created was dated 26/9/09. (Long version) I updated to the latest spiders.txt this afternoon.

Hi There is a possible security risk with this contribution The code can create a logfile which logs all errors – Even the ones from admin. Anyone who knows this contribution is installed will know there maybe a logfile created which can contain the name of admin – even if Admin has been renamed. RENAME THE LOGFILE TO SOMETHING THAT WILL BE DIFFICULT TO FIND Regards Ken

Hi Sam Sorry if this has been asked before – I’ve only read from page 27 where V1.3.5 was uploaded. I have also read all the instructions but I am still not getting this to work. I want to keep all the additional images in a separate folder, say Catalog/images/blob_images/ I can use the drop down and choose the ‘blob_images’ folder. This works fine, but I would like to make this the ‘Default’ folder instead of ‘root directory’ for the additional images I changed categories.php (line 18) to $images_dir = DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'blob_images/'; // default catalog images folder; Which does not work as images are still saved in the root folder How do I make a different folder the default one? Regards Ken

Hi Sam In product_info.php Line 160 echo '<a rel="image_group" title="'.$title.'" href="' . ($m_source ? $m_source : DIR_WS_IMAGES . $product_info['products_image']) . '" alt="' . htmlentities($product_info['products_name']) . '" target="_blank">' . tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $product_info['products_image'], $product_info['products_name'], SMALL_IMAGE_WIDTH*2, SMALL_IMAGE_HEIGHT*2, 'hspace="5" vspace="5"') . '</a><br>'; According to W3Scools the ‘ALT’ is not valid Regards Ken

Hi Sam Thanks for a great contribution. I am getting an error, caused by the ‘alt’ in the <a> rel Attribute Is there another way to write this to correct the problem? Thanks Ken

Hi Sam I meant the files in the downloaded Zip file Inside the zip file there are two text files (shortcuts) called Support thread.URL.url Support.url Support thread.URL.url is correct Support.url is not Regards Ken

Hi Sam Yes. I need a ‘ask a question about a product’ form and a ‘price match’ form as well as a normal contact us. It is easier to keep them separate. I must have been half asleep last night. I started again today and everything is working fine The ‘Support.url’ in the docs points to another contribution. The ‘Support thread.URL.url’ does work. Sorry I missed it. My Host only allows emails ‘to me - from me’. For anyone else in the same position the email can be amended. In contact_us.php change lines 49 From tep_mail(STORE_OWNER, STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS, $subject, $enquiry, $name, $email); To $enquiry = 'From: ' . $name . "\n" . 'Email Address: ' . $email . "\n" . $enquiry; tep_mail(STORE_OWNER, STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS, $subject, $enquiry, STORE_OWNER, STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS); Regards Ken

Hi Sam I uninstalled ‘Clean post vars’ in application top and decided to install this contribution instead. I am installing this in stages and so far only installed ‘contact us’ 'Contact us' is working fine, however I would like to make another file to use as a ‘Ask a Question’ I have duplicated your ‘contact us’ code and replace all instances of FILENAME_CONTACT_US with FILENAME_ASK_A_QUESTION however I still cannot get this to work. After filling in the form and clicking ‘continue’ It is redirecting to my 404 page What am I missing? I hope you can help. Regards Ken

Hi Robert I agree this would be very useful. Some words look silly in proper case. Regards Ken
