spooks got a reaction from domiosc in Matching Product Categories
Following requests I`ve created this little mod.
This contribution adds a info box similar to 'also purchased' at the bottom of the product_info page showing all matching categories for the displayed product, with category images, category name & category description (if you have that). Clicking on the image or name will take you to that category.
Written on osC2.2 rc1 with PHP5 and has been tested on PHP 4 & 5, SQL 4 & 5, osC 2.2 ms2 & rc1 and is register_globals compatible.
Contrib can be downloaded at http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/6010

I would suspect you have created errors in your install
Check your error log, enable error display if not already done.
Ensure your using a decent editor and aren't creating any 'white space' issues

spooks got a reaction from burt in Need A Template...Tired Of The Stock Look
all template monster templates I`ve seen have very poor coding, might be ok if you never need to alter and don't have too many bugs. (w00t)
Stay clear if you want to keep you hair. :'(

spooks got a reaction from Equalizer in I cant get this thing to work
Without knowing what contrib your talking of its very hard to have any idea.
If it has a support thread (is that what u looked through) you should post your question there.

spooks got a reaction from crackabottle in What is the proper way to backup before installing add-ons?
You should backup both your dBase & your files, dBase backup should be a regular thing anyway.
I always use AutoBackup Database in Admin http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/2314 for automatic regular dBase backups
Also add Database backup manager http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/5769 to replace the default tool, as that is bugged.
For your site files, the easiest method is Backup of all store files in zip format http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/6986 though that is still in a rough state, either it will work on your site or not, though is it makes the backup file that will be good.

Product Listing Enhancements, Thumbnails & Manufacturer Headings
This contribution is a much changed version of Product Thumbnail Listing that I started only a short while ago, but as thumbnails is now only one part I felt it should be a new contribution.
I was requested to make a contribution to Group Product Listing By Manufacturer with a manufacturer short description. This does exactly that based around the original product listing, so the old admin controls apply along with some new ones.
The thumbnails part displays products with thumbnail images in a grid layout, you define how many boxes per line plus image & box sizes. It shows the product image in a box with product name, price, short description (if you have that) & buy now or details button. This also supports Additional Images (http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/1032) If you have this it will select the medium size image if it exists.
The customer can switch between thumbnails & manufacturer if you set default to either. If you change default you must select a new category to reset your display.
Extra setting are added to admin, additionally existing settings controling the display of Product Name & Price Are Honored.
The database query used is unchanged from the original, so order you set in admin etc will apply as before.
The style of the display is controlled by a new entry in your css, you can set there if you wish a background image, colours, borders etc.
Page views are included in the package so you can see the result.

Are you saying the missing bits I noted on your page are'nt really missing!! Just check as I advised, if you use a filecompare tool it will make it obvious.

spooks got a reaction from Peper in Remove & Prevent duplicate content with the canonical tag
do you know php & how to create a regex expression?
the current category id is set in $current_category_id so u must search the uri for cpath & if there modify its param with $current_category_id
I will update the code when I`ve time to look at this, but its only a minor issue so its not high on my to do list.
-
spooks got a reaction from Peper in Remove & Prevent duplicate content with the canonical tag
cpath is removed from the uri for product_info.php in the default setup
That says you have multiple paths to sub categories on your site, it would require some code additions to address that, as param values are not touched.

spooks got a reaction from Guest in Fancy Pics - Fancy Image Popups / Previews
A new window opens when an image is clicked on?
1 .Fancybox is jquery based, if you have any other jquery apps on the product info page you must ensure that there is only one instance of jquery, that its version is what's needed for all apps using it and it contains all the calls needed.
2. Jquery is incompatible with mootools, if you have any mootools apps within product info, either they or this will fail (depends what came first). Some bookmarking scripts use mootools.
3. Check you did copy the supplied js directory & contents to your images directory?
4. Check none of your other javascript is causing errors so script fails to run

Simple Multi Image Add-on (Un-Limited) with FancyBox Popups
There are many multi image contributions, but I found many have become much too bloated or just didn't fit, so I created this, allowing as many extra product pictures as you want with admin control and fancy lightbox like popups.
Features:
1.Its a simple strait forward design, only two files to edit.
2.An un-limited number of additional images can be added to any product without modification.
3.Any product can have as many (or few) images as wanted.
4.Additional images can be deleted if needed.
5.Fancybox is used for the image popups, so all product images can be browsed within a single popup. (Fancybox is like lightbox but better lighter code).
6.Additional image layout can be modified in admin, selecting a horizontal or vertical layout and the number or images to show per row
7.Additional image size is also set in admin.
8.I recommend this is used with OscThumb for auto thumbnailing & faster load times.
9.As a bonus addition, a function is added in the product edit page to give a instant update option.
Fancybox is released under the MIT License, details and examples can be found here .
To work Fancybox is particular about the doc-type used, check at their site & in the installation.
Tested on PHP 4 & 5, SQL 4 & 5, osC 2.2 ms2, rc1 & rc2a and is register_globals off compatible.

Well Obviously someone (not mentioning any names) didn't like my post. I am sorry if I hurt the contributors feelings because I stated my opinion on this contributions conflicts with other contributions. However, it is what it is, MY OPINION.

Hi Nick,
Thanks for the input. I ended up removing the Multi Image add on. This contribution conflicts with MANY other contributions either in the categories.php file or the product_info.php file so I no longer offer it to my clients as an image modification.
