  1. Hello forum user, my question is, why does the EasyPopulate contrib uses the products_model as a required field to identify the products? Why not use the products_id? Or does anybody know which changes are needed to let this contrib use the products_id? Im building a shop for a customer, which has already entered about 400 products. Some has a product_model some dont, some use a model name like XXXXXXX, some use a model name like XXX-XXX. I was thinking to make the products_model column unique and use auto_increment where the first product is 10000. Then i would remove the products_model from the input mask in the admin area, so that it always uses the incremented value. Is this practicable? Thx in advance. Regards Benjamin. //edit: before questions come up, the customer is a reseller for various companies and uses their product model names (if they have any), thats why the product models differ so much.
  2. So i got it working, i hope i used the right approach. Here is my code: I only altered html_output.php: Line 96, from: $rewrite_page_product = short_name(constant('PRODUCT_NAME_'.$p2[1])) . '-p-' . $p2[1] . '.html'; to: // Addition to write the manufacturers name into the static link too $manufac_query = tep_db_query("SELECT " . TABLE_MANUFACTURERS . ".manufacturers_name FROM " . TABLE_MANUFACTURERS . " INNER JOIN " . TABLE_PRODUCTS . " ON " . TABLE_MANUFACTURERS . ".manufacturers_id = " . TABLE_PRODUCTS . ".manufacturers_id WHERE " . TABLE_PRODUCTS . ".products_id = " . $p2[1]); $manufac_name = ""; while ($manufac = tep_db_fetch_array($manufac_query)) { $manufac_name = $manufac['manufacturers_name']; } if ($manufac_name != '') { $rewrite_page_product = short_name($manufac_name) . "-" . short_name(constant('PRODUCT_NAME_'.$p2[1])) . '-p-' . $p2[1] . '.html'; } else { $rewrite_page_product = short_name(constant('PRODUCT_NAME_'.$p2[1])) . '-p-' . $p2[1] . '.html'; } I also did some changes to the short_name function, to replace some umlauts, but this is just for the german speaking people. I just added these lines directly after the function declaration: $str = str_replace("?", "ae", $str); $str = str_replace("?", "oe", $str); $str = str_replace("?", "ue", $str); $str = str_replace(" ", "-", $str); Im just writing this because i think i read someones post asking about this.
  3. Sorry was my fault, i forgot the STS code in application_top.php. Now everythings works fine. Thanks to the author for a fine contrib ;)
  4. Okay i solved my problem. The cause was the Master Products contrib. Some sql queries in the index.php and advanced_search_results.php didnt requested the prducts_master and products_master_status from aboive mentioned contrib. The product_info.php had a routine which to set all get params, which set the buy_now action. This routine asked for the master and master_status. Because the queries on the other page didnt requested this db columns, this routine failed and didnt provide the products_id to the tep_href_link, which then itself failed and returned an "old-style" link without a products id. I added the columns to the queries and everything works fine now. Now onto my other "problem", how do i modify the tep_href_link, that it always (if not empty) shows the manufacturer in the link like this /manufacturer-product-p-10.html for every product? Thx in advance, regards Benjamin
  5. No sorry. But i have some snippets and some information. If i use the manufacturers dropdown, the link is like this /index.php?manufacturers_id=10 not like /xxx-m-10.html. Ive found the repsective code lines (taken from product_listing.php): I dont know where the problem is, because in this snippet the function tep_href_link is called, and this is what ive modified for SEO. The other links in the product_listing, if called with isset(manufacturers_id) are fine (the text and the image link). They come up like this /xxx-p-10.html. Only the buy_now column wont work. It does work if you just browse through the categories. Imho the Master Products contrib is part of the problem, because it modifies the buy_now column. If a product is just a master product without a price, the buy_now column just takes you to the product details. But the products id is always empty on the buy_now image. It comes up like /product_info.php?products_id=. Without the products id or the "action=buy_now&sort=2a" parameter.
