Guest Posted October 24, 2004 Share Posted October 24, 2004 Mibble, I tried to respond to your PM but it wouldn't deliver. The answers are, no option selection on the product page. Yes, but I'd prefer to give it to you over PM, which bounced. ed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 Maybe i missed something, but i cant find the line to put in downloadable files for products. ???? Thanks Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 Tom, It doesn't support it as I don't need that functionality. Does anyone use this contrib? I've added attribute sorting and I'm looking at adding Option type support (Text, radio buttons, etc.). If anyone is actually using it, I'll release an update. Otherwise, not.

Guest Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 Ed, I just wanted to let you know that your mod dont stop the downloads from working once they are set up. so, with this said, i, a none programer, am trying to pick my way through figuring out how to ad a new section to add the information to Products_attributes_download table, and if i can,, i am going to keep using your mod, and i am sure some others would as well as this is a wonderful addition. If i can figure this out, I will be interested in the update you are in the process of putting together Regards Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 Ed, Im sorry to post again so fast. but yes,, i am interested. i resolved the issue, I simply added back in the access to the old product attribute manager that came stock with osc, so that when i do have products that have download, i can go into it to set up the file.

Guest Posted March 17, 2005 Share Posted March 17, 2005 Paul, You should have 3 entries under admin->Catalog: - Product Options - Option Values - Attribute Manager These coorespond functionally to the upper-left, upper-right, and bottom of the stock Product Attributes page under admin->Catalog. ed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 17, 2005 Share Posted March 17, 2005 Paul, You'll have to go back through the instructions. There's 2 parts. The first is to install the Attribute Manager contribution. Instead of re-writing it, I just included another contribution and modified it. The second part is to add my new stuff, modify a few existing admin files, and modify the Attribute Manager contrib. Since you don't see, Product Options and Option Values, you've missed a step or two. ed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The use is the same so I'm reusing it. BUT, if you already have that column, don't add it again, obviously. I went to my catalog and attributes manager and click on edit and I get: Warning: Missing argument 3 for checkattribute() in /var/www/public_html/paulreth/html/oscommerce/catalog/admin/new_attributes_functions.php on line 3 line 3 say: $backLink = "<a href=\"java script:history.back()\">"; Thanks for your help in advance.

Guest Posted March 17, 2005 Share Posted March 17, 2005 Paul, The unique_attributes.sql file has SQL code to update the database. You will need to go into phpMyAdmin (or whatever DB admin tool you use). In there, you can browse your hard drive for unique_attributes.sql, and then execute it. This will update the database. However, I'm creating a column called products_options_comment. This is also a column used by another contrib for exactly the same purpose. So, check your products_options table to see if it is already there. If it is, delete that line in the sql file. Otherwise, don't do anything. Note: If my directions say "products_attributes_comment", it should say "products_options_comment". ed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abbey Posted March 17, 2005 Share Posted March 17, 2005 <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hello Ed, I think that I am getting close. I must have missed a few steps because now I have everything in the Catalog that you mentioned. When I click on Product Options and then edit I get: 1054 - Unknown column 'products_options_unique_name' in 'field list' select products_options_name, products_options_unique_name, products_options_comment, products_options_link from products_options where products_options_id = '3' and language_id = '1' [TEP STOP] When I click on Option Values I get the same error. Thanks again, this contrib looks awesome! Very complex! Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 18, 2005 Share Posted March 18, 2005 Paul, Have you checked that products_options_comments (check those s's) is in table products_options after the .sql file is run? Be sure to check the spelling. ed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 18, 2005 Share Posted March 18, 2005 Paul, I'm talking about the column names in the database. The error message: 1054 - Unknown column 'products_options_comment' in 'field list' select products_options_name, products_options_unique_name, products_options_comment, products_options_link from products_options where products_options_id = '1' and language_id = '1' suggests that the seledt statement in the code tried to get data from column products_options_comment in table products_options and it couldn't find that column. The .sql file was supposed to add that column to the table. You need to verify that it is there in the database. ed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem was the comment line field was not loading into sql. I had to go back and erase the two other lines and then load in the comment line by itself. Seems that everything is working right now, knock on wood. Very nice contribution and I look forward to many years of flawless operation. Thank you for your quick replies and your patience!
