hpqnet Posted November 16, 2003 Share Posted November 16, 2003 Cant get the guest_accounts variable to stay. When one of the programs such as login.php calls another, then the next program checks the guest_account it is not set. How can i get this to stay. Anyone else having these issues?

hpqnet Posted November 16, 2003 Share Posted November 16, 2003 a follow up to my previous post, I have installed everything with this mod as should be, and have checkec and rechecked... but the guest_account is not being set in the other programs where it checks to see if $guest_account == false any ideas?

Jayman2 Posted November 19, 2003 Share Posted November 19, 2003 I have Guest Account v2.2 MS2 installed and it appears to be working perfectly. My only problem is that it creates an account for the guest. This way if the guest ever returns and tries to make another guest purchase, they get the message telling them that their email address is already in use. I probably made a small error during installation. Can anyone tell me what is probably wrong. I hate to have to go over the entire installation again. And yes, I do have this entry in my database: ALTER TABLE `customers` ADD `guest_flag` CHAR( 1 ) NULL DEFAULT '0'; Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

♥olby Posted November 19, 2003 Author Share Posted November 19, 2003 Hi jayman2. Do you actually get this message, or do you just think it will show up? A guest will have an account created first time, with the only difference that the guest_flag is set to 1. Next time around, the first account will have @_ added to the email address and last name. So theres no conflict in that. If the @_ isn't added the second time, you'll have to check your installation in the create_account.php in these lines: // Guest Account Start if ($guest_account) $sql_data_array['guest_flag'] = '1'; tep_db_query("update " . TABLE_CUSTOMERS . " set customers_email_address = '@_" . $email_address . "' where customers_email_address = '" . $email_address . "' and guest_flag = '1'"); tep_db_query("update " . TABLE_CUSTOMERS . " set customers_lastname = '@_" . $lastname . "' where customers_email_address = '@_" . $email_address . "'"); Best Regards olby // Guest Account End Quote Best Regards olby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harrietM Posted November 19, 2003 Share Posted November 19, 2003 how do i install this? where are the instructions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayman2 Posted November 20, 2003 Share Posted November 20, 2003 Hi olby, Thanks for your reply. You're right, the program is adding the @_ in front of the email address and it's working properly now. I don't know what happened the first time I used it. But, can you tell me this? When I go to Admin->customers, The account is there. Does this mean that if I get a lot of quick purchases, I'll have to go to my Admin and delete these users? Shoud accounts be created for there people? Thanks again in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥olby Posted November 21, 2003 Author Share Posted November 21, 2003 HarrietM: Try reading the readme.txt Jayman2: The shipping info has to be stored somewhere, and since were not building new tables for the guests - we use the existing ones. Reoccuring guests will show at the top of your customer customer list due to the @_ and are therefore easy to delete. A good rutine is to delete order and customer, when you have shipped the order. Hope this helps Best Regards olby Quote Best Regards olby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayman2 Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 Thanks for the reply olby. I can live with that. Do you have any suggestions about the incompleted guest account orders? I been testing and I see that if the guest does not complete the order, then a regular customer account is created. Thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥olby Posted November 21, 2003 Author Share Posted November 21, 2003 Hi again. Identify and delete customers with guest_flag = 1 once in a while. Manually? yes - slow? yes - works? yes :) Quote Best Regards olby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harrietM Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 I don't understand, the 'guest' account is the same as a regular account, the guest has to create an account anyways... I thought they could checkout without creating accounts, or am I wrong? If so, I don't know how to confure it that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pharkie Posted November 21, 2003 Share Posted November 21, 2003 'Guest accounts' are the same to OSC as regular accounts - but the important thing is that the customer doesn't see it that way. They don't create a user/pass to login to their account, and they presume their details will be deleted once the order is shipped (which they should be, by admin) OSC needs to create an account, even for Guests, to store the contact, billing and delivery addresses related to an order. With Guess Accounts, its just that the user can't then log-in to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jloyzaga Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 I'm guessing that all I have to do once the coding's done is to run the.sql file against my db using phpmyadmin - I don't have to manually change any db stuff do I?

Guest Posted December 3, 2003 Share Posted December 3, 2003 Does this work with version 2.2 MS1? if it does what chages need to be made? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 4, 2003 Share Posted December 4, 2003 Has anyone a solution to this problem "Unable to determine page link". I also have it on my site. when parameters about tep_href_link() is wrong, that error message is displayed. see catalog/include/function/html_output.php.

Guest Posted December 6, 2003 Share Posted December 6, 2003 FYI... To all those inquiring about compatibility with MS1, the answer is NO, it IS NOT compatible. The entire Customer Account system was changed between MS1 and MS2 and is totally different. Hope this helps. -R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
entangled Posted December 8, 2003 Share Posted December 8, 2003 (edited) Hello, I got this working, but, I think I found a small bug (at least on my system). Basically with this mod, there are two types of "accounts" ... guest and registered. Guest accounts go through fine, however, when registering an account, the password checking is not done even though the minimum length is set to 5. Anyone else experiencing this problem?

ozcsys Posted December 10, 2003 Share Posted December 10, 2003 I have installed or modified all the files but I do not understand how to make the database changes. It seems I am supposed to run the guestmod.sql from php myadmin but I do not understand exactly how to do this. If someone could explain it to me I would be happy.

♥kymation Posted December 10, 2003 Share Posted December 10, 2003 Depending on which version of phpMyAdmin that you have, click on the SQL tab, then click on the Browse button and find the guestmod.sql file, then click Go. You can also copy the text from the sql file and paste it into the SQL code box in phpMyAdmin. Regards Jim Quote See my profile for a list of my addons and ways to get support.

ozcsys Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 Unlike the last time I am getting an error message after the install. On the checkout page I am getting this Quick Checkout TEXT_GUEST_CUSTOMER TEXT_GUEST_CUSTOMER_INTRODUCTION instead of the nice little message to the customer. I assume I missed something during the install but if anyone has a hint for me I would appriciate it. Thanks Richard Quote The Knowledge Base is a wonderful thing. Do you have a problem?

matarali Posted January 30, 2004 Share Posted January 30, 2004 Maybe it was just my installation, but the changes required on the create_account page seem to remove the stripslashes() function, so if someone has a last name like O'Driscoll, they get a SQL error. Anyone else see this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
