- integration of DeathAdder addon, that combines the column_left/right.php into one file called columns.php. the columns.php includes a logic to only display infoboxes, when there is an products_id available or a customer_id is set.
- updated the admin/infobox_configuration.php to enable the ability to set the columns left/right position by clicking the icon.

Pretty simple update, not sure if everyone would want this, that's why I didn't include it as a full release/package.

This will combine your colum_left.php and colum_right.php into 1 new file, columns.php
Columns.php also includes some logic to only display certian infobox's when there's a product_id available or a customer_id is set.
This reverts the column behavior back to the normal OsC functionality to only display things like the manufacturers infobox when viewing a product.

The left and right column buttons didn't work for me in Internet Explorer.

To fix this open admin/infobox_configuration.php and find:

case 'setflagcolumn': //set the status of a box left or right.
if ( ($HTTP_GET_VARS['flag'] == 'left') || ($HTTP_GET_VARS['flag'] == 'right') ) {
if ($HTTP_GET_VARS['cID']) {
tep_db_query("update " . TABLE_THEME_CONFIGURATION . " set configuration_column = '" . $HTTP_GET_VARS['flag'] . "' where configuration_id = '" . (int)$cID . "'");
}
}

Replace it with:
case 'setflagcolumn': //set the status of a box left or right.
if ( ($HTTP_GET_VARS['flag'] == 'left') || ($HTTP_GET_VARS['flag'] == 'right') ) {
if ($HTTP_GET_VARS['cID']) {
tep_db_query("update " . TABLE_THEME_CONFIGURATION . " set configuration_column = '" . $HTTP_GET_VARS['flag'] . "' where configuration_id = '" . $HTTP_GET_VARS['cID'] . "'");
}
}

That should do the trick!

The only difference is the configuration_id. Changed it from (int)$cID to $HTTP_GET_VARS['cID']

Hope this helps.

New InfoBox Items, German translation, use set_function to edit 'left' and 'right'

To see the meaning of "use set_function to edit 'left' and 'right'"
just open the included screenshot.png.


Setup for the Items:

1. New InfoBox Items
====================
To add the new InfoBox Items

- CoolMenu
- News Scroller Box
- Login Box with members name
- wishlist
- Enhanced BestSeller box with admin
- Suggested Accessories

just execute the SQL:
box_selection New Items.sql



2. German translation
=====================
To add the german translation, just copy the following files:

catalogadminincludeslanguagesgermanimagesbuttonsbutton_new_infobox.gif
catalogadminincludeslanguagesgermaninfobox_configuration.php
catalogadminincludeslanguagesgermanpopup_infobox_help.php

And merge with your file:
catalogadminincludeslanguagesgerman.php

You can also just add the following two lines:

// Infobox Admin
define('BOX_HEADING_BOXES', 'Infobox Admin');


3. use set_function to edit 'left' and 'right'

- Execute the SQL Script
update for tep_cfg_select_option.sql

This should add the new column set_function
to theme_configuration and define for all
rows the default value
'tep_cfg_select_option(array('left', 'right'),'

- Copy
catalogadmininfobox_configuration.php

If you also changed something, then merge it and
look for 'tom 001'

Is On Danish Now

This is the complete package of v2.23 with a fix to product notification.

search:
new infoBoxDefault($info_box_contents, true, true);
replace:
new infoBox($info_box_contents, true, true);

When I add one product into cart without login, the product notification box did not appear, however when I have login and add the product into cart, the notification box appear along with error:

"Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: infoboxdefault in E:My Web SitesIntranettestsiteincludesboxesproduct_notifications.php on line 48"

The following is on line 48:

new infoBoxDefault($info_box_contents, true, true);

Please advice!!

Thank you very much!

[b]This is the complete repackage of [/b]

Other variante with german files and german sql-dump

In dieser Variante sind zusätzlich die deutschen Sprachdateien und der deutsche SQL-Dump enthalten.

Außerdem sind einige Verbesserungen in der Funktionalität hinzugekommen.

- Fixed the sql due to messing up of box locations in the sort order.
- Changed the location from varchar(64) which is alphabetic sorting to INT(5) which is numeric sorting.
- added some code to allow arrow icons instead of the text left and right.
- made it so that left and right can be switched by the arrows.

*** THIS IS THE UPDATES ONLY***

[b]This is the complete package[/b]

just updated code for ms2 2.2

I'm not too sure about this, but it seems that there are two bugs in the current version in the file catalog/includes/boxes/product_notifications.php (MS2). Please verify thsi if you encounter problems:

1) The constant "FILENAME_PRODUCT_NOTIFICATION" does not exist. Replace it with "FILENAME_ACCOUNT_NOTIFICATION"

2) In line 48 comment out "new infoBoxDefault($info_box_contents, true, true);"

Hope that helps,

Martin

This is a correction to infobox_configuration.php. The current version only works on MS1. infobox_configuration.php is the only file included.

Infobox Admin
Based on an idea by Michael Cohen

This contribution will allow you to select which Infoboxes to display on your site through the Admin panel.
You can also choose which column, and what order they are displayed in.
