about Ebay, they have got an out of stock feature, you just need to enable a setting to your account, to enable it, so it keeps a listing when you have temporary ran out of stock, which they had for a few years now, which i use myself.

@@raiwa - had a little problem come up, when i enabled the show product description, the layout of the rest of the website went all over the place. after looking into the code i found it was cutting off a html tag, and of course a tag may not get closed due to it being after the cutoff. so i managed to fix it by on line 191 in cm_i_recently_viewed (line 173 FOR THE PRODUCT INFO PAGE VERSION) i wrapped $products_data[$products_id]['description'] within strip_tags()

been asked to add pay4later to a website, but they do not provide a plugin for any eCommerce platform, they either expect you to create it yourself, or go to another company who can provide it for you. but was unhappy with the amount they wanted for it. has anyone else uses pay4later,and managed to get it intergrated. on the pay4later website they do have an integration guide, but unable to get my head around it

have the specials prices expired, or are they still live? i did notice this expires_date < CURRENT_TIMESTAMP in some of the quries that handle the speical prices in the easy populate file

check your database settings in admin/includes/configure.php, as that file is seperate from the shop one

I HAVE now posted in the addon section an update version of easy populate. which contains the fix posted by gergely, so if you have already applied that fix, then you do not need to download again i also noticed a mistake that would stop sppc from working (i did post that fix within the forum a while ago i have also added support for QPBP

it was from my playing around with a that file to see if i could find the problem area was, and i must of forgot to restore it to normal oscommerce version

did a test, when importing a file i get Warning: mysql_insert_id() expects parameter 1 to be resource, object given in C:\xampp\htdocs\oscommerce-2.3.3.3\catalog\admin\includes\functions\database.php on line 129 1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '' at line 1 select * from specials WHERE products_id = this only happens whenadding a new product in but if i remove the specials field then i get Warning: mysql_insert_id() expects parameter 1 to be resource, object given in C:\xampp\htdocs\oscommerce-2.3.3.3\catalog\admin\includes\functions\database.php on line 129 1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'AND language_id = 1' at line 2 SELECT * FROM products_description WHERE products_id = AND language_id = 1 osc version 2.3.3.3 php 5.38 MySQL 5.5.16

currently easy populate 2.8 is NOT compatible with osc 2.3.3.2 this is due to an update to the database functions, (PHP 5.5 Compatibility: Database Functions) that were part of that update. i know this as i uninstalled that part of the update, and then tried it, and it then worked. not sure if it has any effect elsewhere, as i was only looking for the cuase of the problem for easy populate. so a fix can now be found

the problem is todo with charector encoding, each one has charectors in different places or missing all together. i ran an expirement and the csv files get downloaded as an asci file (well for me at least), but with some changes to the code, i manged to download as a utf-8 encoded file. (by changing the file download headers) i don't know what charector encoding you are meant to use for chinese, but if you are not using utf-8 then the princeable is the same.

@@osmw i would turn register_globals off, the other settings that i have got different from you are Replace quotes: true - i got set as false and Preserve tab/cr/lf: true - i got set as false

@@zefeena Quantity Price Break is currently not supported with easy populate. but i have managed to add it to easy populate, it just needs a bit more work/testing in order to get it working fully

that should go in product_info.php and should be removed after testing e.g. if login into different accounts which are in different customer gorups if that part is staying the same then theres a problem with sppc, that would then need to be fixed

is sppc working at all on your website. e.g. each customer group has a different price, when they are logged in. if you are not seeing this then there is a problem with that addon that needs to be fixed. you can test by changing the price of a product within the admin and not using easy populate

under the title of an product put <?php echo print_r($_SESSION); ?> you should get some information printed out. that towords the bottom has [sppc_customer_group_id] => 0 [sppc_customer_group_show_tax] => 1 [sppc_customer_group_tax_exempt] => 0 [sppc_customer_specific_taxes_exempt] => ) 1 try login in different accounts, and see if any of those details change
