The best thing it's to download the package, REPLACE categories.php and follow the instruccions.. (there are only 3 new steps i think... ) cheers emiliano

Cieto Featured Products 2.51 MS2 new release 11/03/2003 V2.51 MS2 Many bugs fixed. -->Some functions where missing in the last release. -->Date available and featured until date now works. -->Featured status in update product page has previos value as default. New languages lines (I forgot them in the last release) All bugs from this topic are now corrected. Download @http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contributions,505

Because inside the if statement you define the text for the main page, the category page and the product listing.. if you copy the lines outside the if statement you are defining the line for all the posibilities (main page, categories, products listing) -------- Thanks for letting me know this.. i will release a solution for this simple problem in a day or two.. cheers emiliano

Buy now problem! includes/modules/featured_products.php (line 56) Replace this: <td align="left" valign="top" class="main"><?php echo tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'pixel_trans.gif', '', '1', '5') . '<br>' . TABLE_HEADING_PRICE . ': ' . $products_price; ?><br><?php echo '<a href="' . tep_href_link('default.php', tep_get_all_get_params(array('action')) . 'action=buy_now&products_id=' . $featured_products_array[$i]['id'], 'NONSSL') . '">'; ?><?php echo TABLE_HEADING_BUY_NOW;?></a> With this: <td align="left" valign="top" class="main"><?php echo tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'pixel_trans.gif', '', '1', '5') . '<br>' . TABLE_HEADING_PRICE . ': ' . $products_price; ?><br><?php echo '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT, tep_get_all_get_params(array('action')) . 'action=buy_now&products_id=' . $featured_products_array[$i]['id'], 'NONSSL') . '">'; ?><?php echo TABLE_HEADING_BUY_NOW;?></a> Problem with text not define TABLE_HEADING_PRICE, TABLE_HEADING_BUY_NOW, etc I'm sure you miss this ### Catalog ### [ Step 1 ] ################## ### File : includes/languages/xxxx/index.php Cut and paste it before the end of file: define('TABLE_HEADING_PRICE', .... define('TABLE_HEADING_BUY_NOW', .... Then add (check what to add for each language): For english add: define('TEXT_NO_FEATURED_PRODUCTS', 'There are no featured products'); define('TEXT_MORE_INFO', 'More information'); For german add: define('TEXT_NO_FEATURED_PRODUCTS', 'Es gibt kein gekennzeichnete Produkte'); define('TEXT_MORE_INFO', 'Mehr informationen'); For spanish use: define('TEXT_NO_FEATURED_PRODUCTS', 'No hay productos especiales'); define('TEXT_MORE_INFO', 'Más información'); You need to go to includes/languages/english/index.php (example) search for: define('TABLE_HEADING_PRICE', .... define('TABLE_HEADING_BUY_NOW', .... cut those lines, paste them ad the end of file (before the last ?> ) and then add define('TEXT_NO_FEATURED_PRODUCTS', 'There are no featured products'); define('TEXT_MORE_INFO', 'More information'); I hope this solve all the problems.. Missing F in Catalog Content Some language files needs to be change.. i will release a new categories.php this week to solve that problem (a minor one)... i'm trying to solve the dates problem.. wich i think it's more important.. cheers emiliano

there are some problems with the available date and the featured until date.. i'm trying to solve this bugs.....

the idea it's to get rid off the infoboxes!!! about showing products of the category you're in that was a bug corrected many versions ago, i will released a new version in this days to solve all the bugs... cheers

Know bugs (sorry) Problem with product date available and featured until date. I'm working on it... Cheers emiliano

Yes off course.. it works as the product description/name does... Featured date If someone has problems with the featured until date, please give me a call... cheers emiliano

Update to readme.txt (new readme upload to contributions) ### [ Step 4 ] ################## ### File : admin/includes/functions/general.php Replace this: // Sets the status of a product function tep_set_product_status($products_id, $status) { if ($status == '1') { return tep_db_query("update " . TABLE_PRODUCTS . " set products_status = '1', products_last_modified = now() where products_id = '" . (int)$products_id . "'"); } elseif ($status == '0') { return tep_db_query("update " . TABLE_PRODUCTS . " set products_status = '0', products_last_modified = now() where products_id = '" . (int)$products_id . "'"); } else { return -1; } } With this: // Sets the status of a product function tep_set_product_status($products_id, $status) { if ($status == '1') { return tep_db_query("update " . TABLE_PRODUCTS . " set products_status = '1', products_last_modified = now() where products_id = '" . (int)$products_id . "'"); } elseif ($status == '0') { return tep_db_query("update " . TABLE_PRODUCTS . " set products_status = '0', products_featured = '0', products_last_modified = now() where products_id = '" . (int)$products_id . "'"); } else { return -1; } } //// // Sets the featured status of a product function tep_set_product_featured($products_id, $featured) { if ($featured == '1') { return tep_db_query("update " . TABLE_PRODUCTS . " set products_featured = '1', products_last_modified = now(), products_featured_until = '". date('Y/m/d', time() + 86400 * DAYS_UNTIL_FEATURED_PRODUCTS)."' where products_id = '" . (int)$products_id . "'"); } elseif ($featured == '0') { return tep_db_query("update " . TABLE_PRODUCTS . " set products_featured = '0', products_last_modified = now(), products_featured_until = NULL where products_id = '" . (int)$products_id . "'"); } else { return -1; } }

in the featured query use group by category and the link change it to go to index?cPath=number_of_category cheers emiliano
