  1. thanks for the info. I was looking for more of a Top to Bottom display like in products_new or the standard category pages, where the names of the product extends horizontally, Image is on left of text and Buy Now button is on the right of the product name, etc Any ideas???
  2. Great contribution. Quick question - I was wanting a Horizontal product layout. I have seen this on several sites anyone know how to accomplish this with the latest version, or can point me in the right direction??
  3. hi, i have the region based shipping module, i believe version 4.0 installed. it works great for weight and destination based ground rates. I was wanting to duplicate this module to use for weight/destination based rates for freight trucks. I read about changing the names to something else, in order to not conflict with the other one installed. but here is the kicker, which should be easy for a good programmer - I only want this shipping option to display when the weight of the order exceeds 150 lbs? otherwise, just the ground option would be shown Any ideas? If someone can help me, I will GLADLY send a nice paypal PAYMENT. Thanks!!!!!
  4. Hi, I have the module installed and working great. I want to avoid having the filtered pages with the ?s spidered, such as page 2,3, price sorts, etc. I tried putting in code under the SEO URL stuff in htaccess, that would check if the user was a spider like googlebot or yahoo, and then would rewrite the dynamic url as the base url without the ?= extension part. however, i was worried that this would conflict with the seo url code above it, and none of my product pages would get indexed... I then added this to my robots.txt file for googlebot, because it recognized wildcards Dsallow: /*? 1. Will this conflict with the SEO URL rewrite code in htaccess? i assume it will not, because i believe the htaccess rewrites change the url immediately, and THEN the robots.txt is checkec, but im not sure. 2. Is there a better way to do this? Ideally, i do not want any spider to follow any dynamic content, OTHER THAN the pages that are rewritten into static pages from dynamic by this contribution. Any help much appreciated!
  5. thanks, chemo. so before installing v2.1 should i uninstall v2.0, or just proceed with the installation of 2.1? If it is all contained in the class, will i be removing the lines from my htaccess used on my previous version? no hurry on a reply, just when you get a chance. much appreciated, jon
  6. Bobby, Quick question - With the new version, will the urls still be the same with the product number at the end, or will i have to redirect all of my products to a new format? Also, will there be instructions to change from the previous version, as well as doing a fresh install? thanks - i cant wait to check it out! also, appreciate your interserver.net recommendation - much better performance on my own server!
  7. i am also interested in having slaves show up under multiple masters - this would make the contrib. perfect.
  8. sanam, appreciate the reply. i tried changing echo tep_draw_hidden_field('Qty_ProdId_' . $product_info['products_id'], 1); to echo tep_draw_hidden_field('Qty_ProdId_' . $product_info['products_id'], $cart->get_quantity($product_info['products_id'])); and then it would not add any of the master product, only the slaves. Any suggestions? All my code from product_info.php is in my previous post.. ?
  9. i just use your code on my main page. i switched it to the new code, and the page would not load. i switched back, works fine for me. let me know if you have a better fix. appreciate all the help!
  10. Please.. Hi, I need help with one small problem with my installation. I had replaced the default add to cart code on the product_info.php page, replacing <td class="main" align="right"><?php echo tep_draw_hidden_field('products_id', $product_info['products_id']) . tep_image_submit('button_in_cart.gif', IMAGE_BUTTON_IN_CART); ?></td> --> with this, which adds a user-input quantity field: <td class="main" align="right"><?php echo TEXT_QUANTITY . '<input type="text" name="quantity" value="1" SIZE="2" maxlength="2">' . tep_draw_separator('pixel_trans.gif', '5', '1') . tep_draw_hidden_field('products_id', $product_info['products_id']) . tep_image_submit('button_in_cart.gif', IMAGE_BUTTON_IN_CART, 'align=absmiddle'); ?></td> This works great, on all pages except for Master products, where the default is set to 1 when add to cart is pressed, by this code: echo tep_draw_hidden_field('Qty_ProdId_' . $product_info['products_id'], 1); I want the value here to reflect my "quantity" input field. I tried changing the "1" above to "quantity", but then 100 were added every click. How can i do this? thanks in advance!
  11. sounds great, this will work fine for me, because i just use the module on my main page. I do typically always have more than 3 specials at one time, but will certainly implement the fix to avoid any problems. thanks for the heads up!
  12. this is working as it should be. on the first click a session id is generated - after that it will go away, unless you are not using cookies, in which case the sid will stay appended the whole time. Either way, this is not a problem as long as you have Prevent Spider sessions set to true in your admin, which makes sure google, etc. do not index your site with the sids appended at the end of the urls. make sure to keep the spiders.txt file up to date.
  13. hey, i really appreciate this - youre the man!
  14. I appreciate the reply. I actually just use the specials on default mod on my index.php page, so the modification you did would work great for me. Could you let me know how you got the random to work on your index?
  15. Ive seen several requests for making Specials on Default mod display random products, instead of showing newest. I too would like to do this. How could the specials on default code be modified to show random products? thanks in advance!
  16. Bobby, To give more info, the pages i am trying to redirect are the product_info or category pages, like http://www.mysite.com/mycategory-c-60.html http://www.mysite.com/myproduct-p-576.html If a product changes name, for example, how can i redirect the old url to the new one? Using .htaccess PermanentRedirect, will direct to the proper page when clicking on the old link in google, yahoo, etc., but the url is formed like so: http://www.mysite.com/my-new-product-p-576...products_id=576 appending an extra id on the end of the url. I dont want to have the new link spidered this way. You can test redirecting a page, to see what i mean. Any ideas?
  17. appreciate the reply, but not sure i follow. How should i do a redirect, for a product or category, if the name of the page changes? If you follow my example, you can see how the category/product number is appended to the end when trying...?
  18. Example of redirect problem when using Ultimate SEO URLS. When doing an htaccess redirect, RedirectPermanent /myfile.html http://www.mysite.com/newfile.html and then clicking on the old link in google, yahoo, any site, etc. the site will redirect to the correct page, but as this url http://www.mysite.com/newfile.html?cPath=2...&products_id=86 with the cPath and product id appended on the end of the url. I dont want this to get indexed as the new page. I have just been dropping the page, then waiting for the new page to get indexed, but this is terrible for transfering page rank. Any ideas?
  19. Something is strange with your installations. You should not even ever really have to manually reset the cache. Ive installed the mod, and it works as intended. After adding a new category or product, the cache instantly updates itself. Was it working like this before the articles modification? And, can someone answer my last post - it's driving me crazy..
  20. How can i do a PermanentRedirect for one of the ultimate SEO urls. When i do the command, and then click on the old link in google, the new page comes up, but with additional product and category numbers appended on the end of the url.. Suggestions, chemo?
  21. Minor problem, With this mod, if you ever change a page name or move a page and want to use. htacess to redirect, like RedirectPermanent /lasjdfl http://www.alasajdf/ajldfjsa When you click on the old page in say google, it will go to the new page, but with the category and product number added on the end of the .html as well. It will most likely get indexed like this, then which is not good. To solve, i had to permanently drop a page, create a new one and wait for it to be indexed, which doesnt transfer any page rank at all. Any ideas on this one?
  22. Hi, I would greatly appreciate it if somone could look at my previous post - 1090 in this thread- and help me out. Thanks in advance!
  23. thanks for the reply. so both the file sessions and mysql sessions are automatically deleted at ~ 24 min. intervals?
  24. what a huge relief! it turns out my host was updating the SQL, so all sites on my server were down for about 20 minutes. I now have sessions set to mysql in both config.php files, and all works great! The mod works perfect, the lights and cart contents are now shown. My only remaining concern is that the automatic removal every 24 minutes of the sessions from the sessions table will work right. I guess ill just keep checking the table to see if it grows out of control... But ed, is this working for you?
  25. Warning: mysql_connect(): Too many connections in /home/tools4fl/public_html/includes/functions/database.php on line 19 Unable to connect to database server! thats my error on each attempt
