  1. Linda, Thanks for answering all my questions. I did manage finding a way to round the number before it is sent to Paypal making Paypal happy to accept it. Well, I have one more question before I give you a break :oops: (myself too cause I have been working on this quite extensively for a couple of weeks now). This question is about inventory control. Say for example, I sell T-shirt, matching pants, and hats. Customers can buy them separately or they can buy them in sets. I want to have an inventory that lists T-shirt, pants and hats separately but not in sets. If one buys a T-shirt, 1 will be taken from the in stock inventory. However, when one buys a set of T-shirt, 1 shirt, 1 pant and 1 hat has to be taken from its inventory. I think it should be quite simple to modify but I don't know where to start. Could you please tell me how many files will be involved, what are they? What's the names of the variables that are involved. I think the weight needs to be adjusted as well to include all the 3 pieces weight. Hopefully I can let my store run for a while without further modification or upgrading. But sometimes it's so itchy and always tends to make it easier to use and more friendlier to customers. I really admire your hard work. Wendy
  2. Edit your currencies for Localization in the Admin to be 3 decimal places. Lina, It did solve my problem. But when I check out with Paypal, it says: "The link you have used to enter the PayPal system contains an incorrectly formatted item amount. " Do you think that's due to the currency format? If so, how to change it? I think theoretically we can round the amount to .00 and send it to paypal, but I don't won't to mess up with my store. Thanks.
  3. Linda, Now I even get a warning message saying "Warning: imagepng: unable to open 'images/graphs/banner_infobox-1.png' for writing in /home/virtual/site41/fst/var/www/html/catalog/admin/includes/classes/phplot.php on line 482 " I changed chmod to 777 for the phplot.php file still doesn't work. Please help. Wendy
  4. Linda, Thanks so much for replying all my questions. You are genius. Now a problem with banner. I only see No picture in the banner area. I've changed both image directories to chmod 777. And use Banner manager to change. I'm quite confused about the banner group. There is only 1 group listed so I can only choose that one. Then since I wanted to upload a jpeg file from local hard drive to my website, I just browsed and pointed that file. But then the Save to Image target part is confusing. What path should I use? Do I need to change any coding in the program at all? I don't think the image in my Header shows either. I'm keeping seeing the No picture icon and when I pointed to it it says "webmaker.com". How do I change the header image then? Thanks. Wendy
  5. Linda, I did changed the weight format in the database and it works. YAY. Two more question (I hope it's the last question tonight) is about the product detailed description page. 1) The retail discount box shows all the discount price. But the format is only 0.00. For my product, the price difference is on the 3rd dismal point(0.000). In the Admin area it seems fine, the numbers were all taken (not like the weight problem, it was not taken in the Admin). But in the Catalog, it only shows 2 dismal point. The 2 dismal point price was also taken for total calcuation in the cart. So there is no difference between 0.055 and 0.06. Could you please tell me how to fix this problem? 2) I don't want the In Stock quantity to shown in the product description area. I did turned off the Show Quantity in the Admin part but still it shows. Thanks. Wendy
  6. Linda, Thanks so answering all my questions. One more question about the weight. The unit weight of my product is extremely light (0.25 gram or 0.00055 lb). I searched the site for weight unit question and saw someone said that it doesn't matter what unit you use but nobody answered how the unit affects the shipping. I assume that for UPS or USPS there is a standard unit. Then how does the OSC program handle the unit issue? I'm ok to stay with lb system. But I can't input 0.00055, the weight format looks like 0.00. So, is it easier to change the weight format of the program or to change the unit of all the files. If I have to change unit, how many files are involved? Thanks again for your help. Wendy
  7. Linda, I have some formatting questions with the SEC1.0a version on cvs 05/18. 1) On the top part, under the Advanced search, there are a line of boxes which supposed to say HOME, What's NEW, Special... But I have all the boxes blank. Only when my mouse touches that area, did the text shows. Can you tell me why? 2) All most all of my boxes with round corners don't have your updated color filled completely at the corner. So you can still see the cvs 5/18 color at the corner. The rectangular boxes also show the original color at the side, it's a bit weird. How to change it? 3) Is there anyway to change the whole framed page a little bit wider so I have more space to show product? 4) If I don't want some boxes (such as Manufacturer box at left) to show up, is there some simple way to change that? I didn't change any stylesheet setting after I installed it. Thanks so much for your help. Wendy
  8. Linda, Thanks so much for the detailed answers to my question. Now my SEC and CVS 05/18 are up running. :D Now I'm working on loading products to the site. And I come up with some new questions about the proper usage of the shoppe controller. A little background: The website will be selling a product (snap) consists of 3 parts (A, B and C). There are 10 colors available and 3 sizes. Each size has different price. So the size determines the price, regardless of parts or color. When I looked at the way product is set up in OSC, I was a little bit confused about the attribute and product. I saw that for each product, no matter how many colors or other attribute options you have, there is only one place to input the product quantity for inventory tracking. So to me, it's like if you have 100 computers, 20 white and 80 black. If you use computer as a product and color as attribute option, then you can only input the total 100 for product quantity in stock. Even when you're out to white but still black left, people can still purchase the white one because the total number of computers are still showing in stock. Am I understanding it right? So in my case, does that mean that I have to list all the products with combination of color, size, part. Then what's the attribute for then? Please help me to better under how the system works. Thanks Wendy
  9. I have installed cvs 5/18 and Linda's shoppe controller 5/18 version. Both are clean install. Now I need the gift voucher contribution. Which version should I install? Will there be any conflict between this contribution and Linda's controller? If the same file is changed by both you and Linda, which one should I keep and which one be overwritten. Please provide some detailed instruction on updating. I have spent hours to get the project working and I'm so afraid that I may break it again. Thanks. Wendy
  10. and Linda's controller on cvs 5/18 version. Both are clean install. I spend hours to get the stroller and cvs 5/18 to work. I'm so afraid that I may break it again. IF anyone has experience, please let me know. Thanks Wendy
  11. Linda, I have two more warnings in the My Store Admin section: Warning: Missing argument 2 for tep_get_zone_name() in /home/virtual/site41/fst/var/www/html/catalog/admin/includes/functions/general.php on line 259 Warning: Missing argument 3 for tep_get_zone_name() in /home/virtual/site41/fst/var/www/html/catalog/admin/includes/functions/general.php on line 259 They all point to the same file but I don't see anything wrong. Are they related to the store front warning in my previous post? Thanks. Wendy
  12. Linda, Sorry that I posted my message in the wrong place. I meant to post it under this topic . I finally installed Shoppe Controller with CVS 05/18. I didn't modify anything to the CVS file. Then installed your shoppe controller. It seems fine (I haven't done much testing yet) expect the following warning message. ################################################ Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/virtual/site41/fst/var/www/html/catalog/install/includes/functions/database.php on line 45 Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/virtual/site41/fst/var/www/html/catalog/install/includes/functions/database.php on line 45 Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/virtual/site41/fst/var/www/html/catalog/install/includes/functions/database.php on line 45 Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/virtual/site41/fst/var/www/html/catalog/install/includes/functions/database.php on line 45 Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/virtual/site41/fst/var/www/html/catalog/install/includes/functions/database.php on line 45 Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/virtual/site41/fst/var/www/html/catalog/install/includes/functions/database.php on line 45 Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/virtual/site41/fst/var/www/html/catalog/install/includes/functions/database.php on line 45 ************************************************************ I also always see the following warning message: ****************************************** Warning: Cannot set time limit in safe mode in /home/virtual/site41/fst/var/www/html/catalog/install/includes/functions/general.php on line 47 *************************************************** It appeared when I installed ms1 as well.

But when I point my mouse to it it does show some words. What did I do wrong here? Thanks so much. Wendy

  14. Thanks, Kevin. I have successfully installed 2.2ms1. Now in order to use the shoppe controller I need to install 5/18 cvs. Can you tell me if I need to delete the 2.2ms1 completely? How to install the cvs file. Does it stand alone or depends on the ms1? I see cvs file has weird folder construction, like" catalog catalog admin admin In ms1 I placed admin under catalog folder. Now here where do I put the admin folder? Also in ms1, the address to catalog is mysite/catalog if use cvs, will the catalog address be the same? Thanks so much for answering my question. I'm quite confused here. Wendy
  15. I'm new here and just started building an online store. I installed the ms2.2 yesterday and it worked very well except the product attribute. I searched and saw you have a contribuation, the Shoppe controller, but one is based on CVS 3/24 and the other one is CVS 5/18 version. The only CVS I found on the site is 5/26. So what should I do then? Another question I have is that after I get the right version, what exact should I do to update my ms2.2? I read your Readme file and also extracted the files in your contribution. For files that are new, they are located in different folders. Should I go down to each folder and only FTP the files to my website rather than uploading the whole folder to my site? I did try to use your 3/24 version to update my website. I think the Admin sections works fine, but my store front is broken. I can still see products category and product list (the left menu). The middle section (what's new) is completely gone. The error message I got was: Fatal error: Call to undefined function: tep_get_products_display_price() in /home/virtual/site41/fst/var/www/html/catalog/includes/boxes/whats_new.php on line 37 This is the first contribution I made. My hadn't modified ms2.2 at all so it's still pretty original. Please take a look for me. I really appreciate. Wendy
