yanarasod Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 hi, vger  just was going to install ccgv but found it too confusing. i have a pre-install question, ie. the features are similar to ccgv original or changed.  also my store is heavily modified, and in your readme, it is written to look directly into the files for larger edits for ccgv reference. is this the only way to add ccgv trad, or i missed something.  using either way i will have to install it  thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a heavily mofified store and installed the trad version with no problem: the parts to add/change are clearly explained. You just have to be very carefull: lots of files to alter, many to add. It took me a couple of hours. Edited May 28, 2006 by pixclinic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chooch Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 It is actually well laid down by Vger so I don't think it can be that hard to install but the modifications may take time, just remember to back up anything you change to be on the safe side. Quote Upon receiving fixes and advice, too many people don't bother to post updates informing the forum of how it went. Until of course they need help again on other issues and they come running back!

On the contrary, it creates a better atmosphere. Â CHOOCH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yanarasod Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 the parts to add/change are clearly explained   for shorter files it is in the install html file, but i didn't find any reference to make changes to larger edits  For longer edits look for references to CCGV within the files provided  you made me confuse, dont take it the wrong way, in the readme it's written to look into the files itslef and you say it's there in the readme to edit larger files. so if you can tell me that should i start looking for ccgv references in the files itself for larger edits, as is said in the readme,  i didn't find anything in the readme for larger edits as said by you, i hope i explained eveything clearly. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 i didn't find anything in the readme for larger edits as said by you, i hope i explained eveything clearly. thanks  The large files need to be modified by looking for comments in the MODs files.

yanarasod Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 completed half-install, sorry to post again, Â just had a question, does this contribution generate a coupon and asks for promotion code to get a discount. just like in many sites where after adding a promotional code customers get a discount or free voucher, is it like that or something else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥Vger Posted May 28, 2006 Author Share Posted May 28, 2006 You set up a Coupon and you tell customers the code, which they then enter during checkout. It's all there in the User Guide which comes with the download.  Vger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yanarasod Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 now if i want to generate suppose a 1000 coupons for an affiliate, will i have to manually generate each coupon, or say i can generate coupons like : generatea coupons from number 1 to 1000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tec Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 ok, since i have the worst luck in the world sometimes, i figured I would start the install on the admin side first, i have not done the front end yet, but my prob is, the box is not showing up in the admin on the left hand side, do i need to complete the front end install to have it show in the admin?

tec Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 OK I found that there is a file access in the administrator box, so i set it up so that the GV-Admin box is active, and i have the files inside it but i still cant get it to show on the left side of the admin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

♥Vger Posted May 28, 2006 Author Share Posted May 28, 2006 (edited) Please don't post every single move you make in installing this contribution - because I get a notification for every single post you make. Install it all, and if there are any problems then make a post.  The last error you are getting is because the sql file was run twice into the database. Either restore a backup of your database (you are advised to take a backup in the install instructions) and then run the sql file once, or else you'll have to edit the 'configuration' table in your database via phpMyAdmin and remove the double entries (which should be on the last page of that table).  Vger Edited May 28, 2006 by Vger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tec Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 sorry for all the posts Vger. Thanks for the heads up on the sql, I will go off and fix it now, I do have a back up of the DB as instructed in the doc of the intall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yanarasod Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 hi vger, just found a strange thing in your readme  upload this file  catalog/admin/coupon_catalog/admin.php  there is no such folder, named coupon_catalog, i think it should be  coupon_admin.php  am i right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
