I am using an older version (2.3.7) of this great contribution, but I don't think it supported default.php pages. I've been looking at the newer versions, and it looks like the support is now there. Is there a way to "upgrade" my version without doing a total new install? Thanks a bunch!! ~ Dani

Is it possible to limit the category descriptions to only the first page of the category? Say I have 20 products total, and list 5 products per page. I'd only want the description to show up on the first page before the product list begins. Is that possible with this contribution??

I've been using STS 2.0 for some time and have recently decided to use custom templates for each category. In the read me file, it discusses creating custom category templates. I must be missing something, because I can't seem to get it to work. I created a sts_templates folder under includes. For a category index.php?cPath=24, I created a template index.php_24.html and placed it in the sts_templates folder. However, the category doesn't display the custom template. I am using the Ultimate SEO URLs contribution. Is that the problem?

**sorry....meant to post this in the STS support thread** I've been using STS 2.0 for some time and have recently decided to use custom templates for each category.

It worked!!! :D I'm using Firefox too, so I wonder if it's a browser thing? Thanks!

Still having some trouble with this contribution, though I've made all the changes mentioned above. In some cases diffrentshipping.php takes us to the USPS welcome page ("your shipping label is just a clicknship away"). At other times, diffrentshipping.php takes me to the page where you select your service and postage options (priority, express, etc.). However, even if I make it to that page, clicking submit just takes me back to the welcome page and offers an error message. Anyone else still having trouble?

I'm using the Product Options contribution and would like to add a link below the option title that says "learn more", or something similar, and opens a new page with an explanation of the option. For instance, I might have an option of color, and clicking the link would open a window that lists all the available colors. How would I go about doing this? I tried the following... Color<a href="color_chart.php" target="_blank"><br>(learn more?)</a> This method does open the new window properly, and when the customer enters their color choice, it does write to the database correctly. However, when I go to view the customer's order via the admin (orders.php), the color is left blank. Is there a way to do this without breaking the display of the option in the admin? Thanks!!

Okay, new problem now. When I view orders in admin/orders.php, I only see some of my product attribute information. However, all of the information comes over in my email order confirmation, and when I check the table orders_products_attributes, all the information is there. I do not think the problem is with orders.php because orders placed last month are still showing all their attribute information. Since all of the attribute information is going to the database and through the email, I'm confused as to where the problem is happening. Any suggestions??

THANKS! I did have extra columns. Now, I just have to figure out what contribution they belong to!! ? :blink: - Dani

I have been using this great contribution for some time now, and I just started receiving the following error when trying to assign an attribute: 1136 - Column count doesn't match value count at row 1 insert into products_attributes values ('', '40', '11149', '0', '', '+', '0') [TEP STOP] I've installed other contributions, so I think I've messed something up somewhere, but I am not sure where to begin to look. Any suggestions?? Thanks, Dani

From what I gather, it is possible to allow a public view of wish lists, but I cannot figure out how to "activate" this feature. I have the Wishlist 2.0 (actually 2.4b) contribution working, but wish lists are only seen by the users they belong to. How to I allow people to search for other people's wishlists and view them? Thanks!!

I'm thinking of adding this contribution to my site, but I have a quick question. Can other people view someone's wish list online (other than receiving the email notification?). For instance, is there a search box on the homepage that will allow for a search of wish lists by last name? Thanks!!

Is anyone using one of the Page Title/Header contributions with STS? Specifically, one that will alter the page title to match the category name or product name? If so, which one works best with STS? Thanks!!

Hmm...I've looked over that one, and I think it only works for dropdowns. Not sure if it can handle text fields or radio buttons??

I also wanted to say a big THANK YOU to Scott for adding the hidden form fields to version 3.0...they work great!! :)

We just started using the echeck payment option, and we've already had people using it. I think some customers would rather pay by check than give an online retailer their credit card information, and this option doesn't hold up thier order until their check is received. As for customers being uneasy about providing that information, you might put a note on your site which explains that the information they provide for an echeck is no different from the information that is on their paper checks...and just think of how many people we write checks to!! As for banks accepting them, I had a little trouble the first time because the MICR font didn't print correctly, but the bank STILL deposited the check. So if they'll deposit one that has an error like the one we deposited, you really shouldn't have any trouble. It's a great contribution...I highly recommend it. :) - Dani

Does this contribution work for text fields as well, or only "dropdown" select boxes? Also, can you determine which selects are required, or will all selects be required? Thanks!!

Do you happen to recall the name? I've been searching but haven't been able to find one. Thanks!!

Hi, I am successfully using the Option Type Feature, but I notice that customers sometimes forget to enter the required data that is asked for in the fields. How would I go about making those fields required? I assume javascript is the way to go, but I'm not sure about the code or where to place it. Anyone else done this? Thanks!!!

I am using the Category Descriptions MS2 1.4 contribution, and it works great. I am curious, though, if it is possible to limit the description to just the first page of products? If not, is there a contribution that will allow just a short paragraph of text to be placed above the products on the first page of the products (a way to give a brief explanation about the products in that category)? Tahnks!

In my case, it was the paypal shopping cart ipn contribution that was getting in the way. You may want to double check any additional contributions you've added, if any.

I was unable to ever figure out how to get it to work with CCGV, so I had to switch to the other paypal contribution (PayPal IPN v0.98). I have both contributions running fine now.

Thanks Matt, you are right. I was using the PayPal IPN contribution and hadn't updated the checkout pages. Thanks so much!! - Dani

Has anyone tried using PayPal_Shopping_Cart_IPN with the Credit Class & Gift Voucher contribution? I am having a little trouble merging that contribution's "checkout_progress" file with the IPN's split "checkout_progres" and "checkout_update" files. I'm a novice at PHP, so if the code is toooo different, I get lost. For instance, in the CCGV contribution, you are supposed to add if(tep_session_is_registered('credit_covers')) tep_session_unregister('credit_covers'); $order_total_modules->clear_posts();//ICW ADDED FOR CREDIT CLASS SYSTEM After this block of code: // unregister session variables used during checkout tep_session_unregister('sendto'); tep_session_unregister('billto'); tep_session_unregister('shipping'); tep_session_unregister('payment'); tep_session_unregister('comments'); However, the block of code about session variables is not in the IPN code. Similarly, you are supposed to add if ($credit_covers) $payment=''; //ICW added for CREDIT CLASS After the code: // load selected payment module require(DIR_WS_CLASSES . 'payment.php'); That code too is different, so I'm not sure where I would add that code. Thanks!!
