Hi Bill,
I was wondering how would one know when to modify STS files when adding a contribution to ones store? The reason why I ask is because I want to Additional Images v2.0.0 Contrib 1032, and was not sure if I needed to modify anything in STS or not.
-
When editing the headertags placeholder should i use the HTC instructions to add in the necassary code or is it already there and all I have to do is uncomment it out?
-
You are not missing anything. You should ignore the sections in red as HTC is doing it's job telling you that you did not add the code to the individual pages. Since you are using STS, you do not need that code in the catalog side, just the admin side.
As far as the category descriptions go, STS already allows you to add your custom descriptions by creating a category template. Adding the description in HTC would be redundant. If you absolutely wanted to add your descriptions in the admin, then you would need to edit the $headtertags placeholder in catalog/includes/modules/sts_inc/general.php to include the text from the categories_description table in your database.
Thanks Bill, for clearing this up and giving back my sanity well what little I have left. I was beating my head thinking "Oh No where did I mess up now!", haha.
Glad to know for once everything is okay.

Quick question, in the Admin » Header Tags » Text Control, it states
Note that is the title of a section appears in red, it means that file does not have the required Header Tags code installed and, as a result, will not display the title or meta tags defined here.All of my sections are red, but they display the info on the Text Control page, but they wont display what is written in the "Header Tags Categories Description" section (the larger text box out of the two) on the category page in the catalog section, but it will display the first "Header Tags Categories Description".
What am I missing, I have the header tags code installed per the instructions of HTC for STS, as i am running STS for osC RC1.
-
One last question, is there a way to reverse the way the titles is being displayed?... instead of "Cat - MyStore" it will be like this "MyStore - Cat".
If the above is possible, would it be possible to have the title be displayed as "MyStore - Catname - ProdName"
Also how would I change the - to »
Thanks.
-
okay figured it out the instructions say make sure its like this 'sts_user_code.php;headertags.php', but for some reason when i drop the ' it works fine. go figure....

Like the other person above me, does Header Tags work with osc 2.2 RC1?
Bill:
Maybe you can shed some light on this as it seems to be STS related, I have installed STS with Featured Products for osc 2.2 RC1 and now I went and followed your instructions here for HTC, but now I am getting this error.
Warning: main(includes/modules/sts_inc/'sts_user_code.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /homepages/45/d90400221/htdocs/Concepts/shop/includes/modules/sts_inc/sts_display_output.php on line 21Warning: main() [function.include]: Failed opening 'includes/modules/sts_inc/'sts_user_code.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /homepages/45/d90400221/htdocs/Concepts/shop/includes/modules/sts_inc/sts_display_output.php on line 21

I would assume getting these errors is also the reason why the meta tags are not show up as well.

Are you sure your images are at fault?
- Recheck each page that is showing unseccur- it may even be something in your header for example.
- Be sure you do not have any hard coded references to "http:"
- Be sure you are not referencing images or pages or anything else (logos) that is not located on your server. Sometimes people will do this in good faith such as when using a payment gateways logo hosted on the gateways server.
- Be sure your configure files have the correct paths for the https: which should be the domain name and not the url i.e the path for https: you should not have www in it.
Have you tried: ../apollo/images/tr.jpg
have no idea what happened, but when i went to back back-up everything up so I can add Featured Products for STS everything is working fine.
Thanks for the help anyways.

Two things...
- Give an example of the relative paths that you are using. Try using a forward slash at the begining of the link.
- What bug are you referring to and what add-on in the STS Power Pack are you referring to as well?
:thumbsup: The STS Power Pack is NOT a contribution but rather a site that is designated to collect STS Add-ons in one central download site. Most if not all of the add-ons require that STS be installed or the add-on will not work.
Hi Bill thanks for your response, here is a snippet of html that is used to make up a section of my site. adding a forward slash to the url breaks the images.
<td width="28" background="styles/apollo/images/tr.jpg"> </td>
As for the bug I was referring to, it was in STS Plus sorry not the Power Pack, here is a link to the post regarding what I was talking about.

Anybody else having problems displaying secure and unsecure items using STS for RC1?
I have tracked it down to the way the graphics for my templates are being hadnled, even though all the path are relative for some reason in a secure environment they come up as non-secure.
Could this be due to the same bug that was in the STS Power Pack or something else?

Hi Bill.
I have a question regarding the pop-up function for STS, I created my own template using your example as a guide, but whenever I click on an image the pop-up does not resize to the size of the picture. Any idea of where I went wrong, here is the code for my pop up image page.
<?php define ('STS_END_CHAR', '}'); ?> <html $htmlparams}> <head> <!--$headcontent--> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="stylesheet.css"> <script language="javascript"><!-- function resize() { var i=0; var MarginW = 60; var MarginH = 140; if (document.layers) i=40; if (document.prodimage.width>document.bannerimage.width) {Width=document.prodimage.width +MarginW} else Width = document.bannerimage.width+MarginW; Height = document.prodimage.height+document.bannerimage.height+MarginH; window.resizeTo(Width,Height); self.focus(); } //--></script> <?php // BOF: More Pics 6 ?> <meta http-equiv="Page-Enter" content="blendTrans(Duration=0.5)"> <meta http-equiv="Page-Exit" content="blendTrans(Duration=0.5)"> <?php // EOF: More Pics 6 ?> </head> <body onLoad="resize();"> <table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="28"><img border="0" src="styles/apollo/images/ttl.jpg" width="28" height="52"></td> <td width="100%" background="styles/apollo/images/tt.jpg"> </td> <td width="28"><img border="0" src="styles/apollo/images/ttr.jpg" width="28" height="52"></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="28" background="styles/apollo/images/tl.jpg"> </td> <td align="center" width="100%">$popupimage}</td> <td width="28" background="styles/apollo/images/tr.jpg"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="28"><img border="0" src="styles/apollo/images/tbl.jpg" width="28" height="55"></td> <td width="100%" align="center" style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 8pt" background="styles/apollo/images/tb.jpg">$productname}$productmodel}</td> <td width="28"><img border="0" src="styles/apollo/images/tbr.jpg" width="28" height="55"></td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> -
For the ppl that got this to work with STS what did you do? I dwonlaoded the version for STS but all my images arer still the regular pop-ups thanks.
-
With such a simple install instructions I do not know where I could have messed up at.
I just installed LIGHTBOX Image for STS 4+ and whenever I click on an image on my test store it is a regular pop-up and not the Lightbox image,
Is there more to the contribution that what is in the download file located here?
-
Renato,
I suggest that you use the Featured Products contribution to replace your New Products for month box. This will give you complete control over those products.

Have fun,
Bill thanks for making this contrib more STS friendly, was looking for just the thing when I came across your post.
BTW thanks for STS

Ive been brave and made a new install of the latest STS. I'm an STS virgin.

I haven't really started with the design yet, as you can see. Before I do I want to make sure I get the products done. So I've tested by adding some categories and a product.
Every page has the same design as the index. Nothing changed when I click through the categories and the products aren't showing. I've obviously not done something correctly. I don't know what though.
Okay, I just went through your site, and noticed that you only have 1 product listed for your store, and when you navigate to that product it does show up.
Also you are getting errors on your site due to the fact that you are specifing that STS read from the sts template directory "full" for how everything is supposed to be displayed, but you did not fully upload the "full" folder so you are getting this error
Warning: read_template_file(includes/sts_templates/full/) [function.read-template-file]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /homepages/44/d194939030/htdocs/shop/includes/classes/sts.php on line 163Fatal error: read_template_file() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'includes/sts_templates/full/' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /homepages/44/d194939030/htdocs/shop/includes/classes/sts.php on line 163

Great! Thanks! When you install your oscommerce for a client how do you usually do the design and etc? I mean do you just keep the admin section the way it looks, or do you just design the part that shows?
also have you heard of miva?
STS is designed only to change the look and feel of the user side (shoppers/visitors), if you want to change the way the admin section look, you would have to actually redo the php files regarding the admin files, and unless you understand osC php as well as html, I would not attempt this.
As for designing the site for a client it all depends on the client needs, and I hate to sound rude casue this is not my intention, but if you are asking here how to design for your client I do no think you should be designing sites right now commericially until you get more time under your belt.
Sorry Bill I know you rather have questions asked/answered in the STS thread, but I wanted to reply.
-
Sorry, one more question:
Could I use any contribution with STS? For exemple: I intend to use the Star Product, Feature Products, Loginbox Best, and much more. Is it possible with no problems? Thanks again.
Short answer, yes.
Long answer yes, but you may gave to tweak and modifed the contribs you are adding in your osC store.
Also, Bill correct me if I am wrong, you will have to specifiy the new tags for them to show properly.

Did you remember to add the $content tag to the body of your template? without that tag it will never display any of the info you are suppose to have in the main section of the site, from your inde to checkout to loginging in and out and of course products.
I know when I first designed my template I uploaded it to the server and freaked caused everything was blank, then I realized I forgot to add the $content tag.

When I tried to manually edit my out dated categories in "SEO-G Zones » Categories" I get the following errors, I am using osC RC1 if it helps any.
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /homepages/45/d90400221/htdocs/Sportivo Concepts/shop/admin/includes/classes/seo_categories.php on line 125Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /homepages/45/d90400221/htdocs/Sportivo Concepts/shop/admin/includes/classes/seo_categories.php:125) in /homepages/45/d90400221/htdocs/Sportivo Concepts/shop/admin/includes/functions/general.php on line 22

Does anybody actually have this working on a live site? As I would like to add this contrib, but it seems like ot is full of bugs with no support anymore.
Bump
-
your best bet is to post your question in this thread.
-
Are there any contributions to design your own email templates? Something like STS?
-
Stupid Question,
I have d/led and installed osC RC1 and have been working to get it set-up properly, and I am now working on setting up my payment options.
Does osC RC1 have the latest version of Paypal IPN or should I download the latest version and install it?
Also what is the Instant Payment Notification URL?
-
I have a website based on the import car culture but focus on Toyota, Lexus and Scion so I have had my site up for awhile and with STS I was able to have STS liik just like the rest of my site with no problems, I just took the template I use for the rest of the site and added the tags I needed for the right look for osC.
If you ask me, its the way to go.

So your saying that the Regular 2.0.0 works fine with osC RC1? I am about to install this contrib, and since neither you or the person who made the update for osC RC1 has any detail instructions on where to make the changes in the files, I need to create a write-up of the changes so that I can properly incorporate it in with the STS module which I have installed.
