cbonnar Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Hi, I have installed and all is good but I can't get the calendar to popup when I click on the > next to the expiry date. I am in AUS so our date format is DD/MM/YYYY if that helps. Thanks Quote Thanks Colin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Colin, If you have changed the default date format, then you will also need to change the date format in featured products in order for it to work. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guardian_Tech Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 (edited) Hello all! Step 18 says: Use phpmyadmin or similar to run the following query once you have completed steps 17-1 above: update configuration set set_function="tep_cfg_select_option(array('true', 'false')," where configuration_key='FEATURED_PRODUCTS_DISPLAY' update configuration set set_function="tep_cfg_select_option(array('true', 'false')," where configuration_key='FEATURED_PRODUCTS_DISPLAY' In phpmyadmin I try to this but get the following error: "You have to choose at least one column to display" what colum is it looking for? Any help you can give would be great. Edited September 5, 2011 by Guardian_Tech Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Mathew, Use the SQL tab to run the SQL statement using phpmyadmin. The other message you are getting is because you didn't upload the /includes/modules/featured_products.php file to the proper directory.

Guardian_Tech Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 (edited) WOW! Fast Reply! The other error which I removed minutes after posting which was not fast enough for you ; ) was due to leaving NEW_ attached when replacing that line of code....I guess now I should have left it but dont remember the error. As for the first part, THANKS! that did it. One other problem I notice is if I select a product to look at, the "featured" box in column_left shows up as “BOX_HEADING_FEATURED” Any ideas?

Guardian_Tech Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 The problem was due to missing step 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guardian_Tech Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Thanks Chris for all the fast support. One more thing if you might know the answer, The featured items are missing the Add to cart and details buttons along with basic details like qty, weight, etc. Is this something I missed in the installation or is there a way to code this to include those items?

Guest Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 (edited) Mathew, The /includes/modules/featured.php file does not include the buy now or quantity calls BUT, if you wanted them you could use the /includes/modules/new_products.php file as a reference on how to add them. The featured.php file was based on the new_products.php file. Chris Edited September 5, 2011 by DunWeb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aftabn10 Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Guardian Tech, this is something that I am interested in as well. Just wondering if you managed to add the buy now buttons into the featured products? Would appreciate some help. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Chris, Sorry for the slow response in reply. When you say you will need to 'change the date format in featured products' where do I make the change?

cbonnar Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 Chris, I am not sure it is as if you turn off the 'Display Cart After Adding Product' in the admin section it works fine and if I have this on and select a product from the product listing it works ok. It seems to be something to do with the return after adding to cart. In product listing it just returns to the product listing after you click add to card, as expected, but I am not sure how you have implemented this in the feature listing.

I have adjusted the english.php files for AUS date format but when I click on the > next to the date when setting a date on a featured product still no calendar?

MrHilsen Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Hi! I am building a new site, and want to use both the featured module and the new products module on the index page. Is there an easy way to make both work on the same site, and how do i then install this module on the ftp and in the database? hope to hear from you soon.. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassmaga Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 does not work... the calendar is show but does not save the date I uploaded new featured.php file. Calendar works fine now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 DunWeb, I successfully installed featured modules. Initially I thought the modification was not working because the products I added from the drop-down list were not displaying. However, after several test cases I made the observation that those products were inactive products to begin with. I recommend in future releases that the drop-down list only includes active products. I may attempt to correct this myself. If this is the case I will post the cost the code here for others.

Guest Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Hi Ryan, Thank you for the suggestion. I will keep it in mind if I ever release another revision of this. In the meantime, feel free to make a revision if you have time. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
builder_bob Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Chris, I've installed this contribution onto my 2.2 rc2a shop, I may be mistaken butI thought I read that it would run fine. I dont get any errors though until I go to actually add products from my admin console. Under Catalog, when I click on "Featured Products" as if I am going to add them, I get a fatal error saying that it... well... Warning: require(includes/template_top.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /usr/local/pem/vhosts/xxxxxx/webspace/httpdocs/testsite/catalog/xxxxxadminxxxxx/featured.php on line 64 Warning: require(includes/template_top.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /usr/local/pem/vhosts/xxxxxx/webspace/httpdocs/testsite/catalog/xxxxxadminxxxx/featured.php on line 64 Fatal error: require(): Failed opening required 'includes/template_top.php' (include_path='.:/php/includes') in /usr/local/pem/vhosts/xxxxx/webspace/httpdocs/testsite/catalog/xxxxadminxxxx/featured.php on line 64 Do you have any ideas? or can I just add that in?
