Iwant2Lrn Posted December 29, 2005 Share Posted December 29, 2005 I think you are trying to show multiple categories. The categories feature is to show a featured category with products. Try haveing one featured category.  Which features do you have active.   I have followed the directions and am at the last step to run the sql query. How do I do that. I am somewhat new to the dynamic website biz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GvdS Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 I really like this contribution, but would like to accomplish one thing. Is it possible to get the feature boxes to be all of the same size? My boxes are now all of different sizes, which make my opening page "messy". Â Maybe I missed a parameter or is there another way to make sure the boxes are all of the same size. Â I hope somebody can help me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackintelchick Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 I gotten these errors on my index.php. I think it has something to do with the Header Tags contribution since I deleted product_info.php from the Header Tags page control. So I reinstated that but it is not working so I know I have to reinstall that HTC contribution. More headaches for me but anyways. Here are the errors it displayed on index.php. Â Warning: main(includes/modules/FILENAME_UPCOMING_PRODUCTS) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/bpd/public_html/xindex.php on line 347 Â Warning: main() [function.include]: Failed opening 'includes/modules/FILENAME_UPCOMING_PRODUCTS' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/bpd/public_html/xindex.php on line 347 Â Warning: main(includes/modules/FILENAME_NEW_PRODUCTS) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/bpd/public_html/xindex.php on line 344 Â Warning: main() [function.include]: Failed opening 'includes/modules/FILENAME_NEW_PRODUCTS' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/bpd/public_html/xindex.php on line 344 Â Â Now I don't recall messing with the index.php in the catalog. I think I have to analyze the index.php cuz it seem to the errors coming from index.php and nowhere else. I could be wrong. I checked filenames.php and noticed it was missing some definitions for Wolfen Featured sets so I fixed that. What's now? Â BTW, I am using STS. And yes, I did searched google.com for some solutions but no avail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackintelchick Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 Turned out that my filenames.php was overwritten so I lost some definitions that are related to the products information.

ruchkin Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 In the admin set the Display featured manufacturer with products false Display featured categories false  or set manufacturer products to featured and category products to featured to diplay the products  I have installed this mod but have the following problem. When I click on any of featured manufacturer from the first page, in the left corner of the header on the next page I see "Resource #45" message. Though, the rest of the page shows correctly. When I looked at the source it shows like this: <!doctype html public "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <html dir="LTR" lang="en"> <head> Resource id #45<!-- BOF: Generated Meta Tags --> .... then the rest of the page.  When I click on products on this page - the same story but Resource id # is incremented by 2. It only happens when I start clicking from featured manufacturers - featured products have no issues.  Do you have any idea what it can be ? Thank you.  ruchkin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 Hi  Just wanted to say Thankyou for a great Mod,  It was easy to install and that was with having several big Mods alreddy on the shop so I had to be very careful with adding the code on a few of the files.  So, Many thanks for not only developing but for making it available to the rest of us mortals,  Nigel, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diaz Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Hi  I am almost there with the header tag contrib, just a few little more adjustments and all will be well :thumbsup:  The second part of my last post might not have been clear enough because I can not see anything in the link you gave me that helps or relates to my problem, so let me try again :)  I have featured a categorie (valentine at the moment) which gave a flower picture as a link above the items in the categorie. But when I click on it it goes to this...  $productmodel ?0.00$imagesmall Click to enlarge  For more information, please use the contact page and we will be happy to reply. This product was added to our catalog on .  Sorry for the poor example, but I am at work and can not do any picture editing :rolleyes:  It seems to go what I would describe as a "blank categorie thats missing" :blink:   TIA  Diaz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trout69 Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Hi All, Has anyone got this contribution running with the 'Dangling Carrot' free gift contribution? I notice there is a lot of conflicting code, particularly in admin/categories.php.  As im not a coder personally, i've had a look and tried to implement the install around my dangling carrot install and vice versa but can't seem to figure out how to get both mods in the same files? ANy ideas guys?  Anyone else got these contibutions running together? If not, is there another mod that works similar to dangling carrot?  Regards  Donna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ANy ideas guys?  Anyone else got these contibutions running together? If not, is there another mod that works similar to dangling carrot?  There is no conflicting code both contributions work together and it takes about 10 minutes to add the dangling carrot contribution.  You just need to locate the relevant code sections and in the case of the queries compare them for differences.  If you have the Wolfen Featured Sets installed and are adding the dangling carrot then all that is added to the query is the carrot part which in one instance is  products_carrot  and in the other instance  products_carrot  and value  , '" .

shadieb Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 Hi,  I am a bit of an OS Commerce newbie and have tried to install your contribution. Everything has copied across okay and I have modified the index.php as in the instructions.  When I attempt to run the featuredsets.sql in phpmyadmin I get the following error :-  MySQL said:  #1060 - Duplicate column name 'products_featured'  If I look under the categories in the database I get a categories_featured and a categories_featured_until  In the manufacturers section I get manufacturers_featured and manufacturers_featured_until showing up twice?  I don't know what the error means or why I get it? I wanted to use the contribution to just show a handful of products on the main page which is working, but I am still concerned about the above error when trying to run the sql file.  Also, is it possible for the text "Featured Products" to be displayed above the featured products in a similar way to the "New products for xxxx" was displayed?  Many, many thanks for your help.

241 Posted April 5, 2006 Author Share Posted April 5, 2006 :blink:  I would suggest trying easyphp 1-7 for development as that is what I use without any issues.  I am not fully sure what all versions are being used in wamp 5 however I would guess that php5 and possibly mysql 5.  I run php 4.3.8 mysql 4.0.15-max debug phpmyadmin 2.6.0rc2 and apache 1.3.27 and have had no issues with developing using this platform.
