This a really great contrib.

 

Has anyone added more than 9 pages? I have manged to tweak the php to show (in admin) more than 9 page types but when I create a page and choose a page type over 9 it doesn't show in the box, the box shows only 8 lines. I must add 5 links more, can anyone help? Thanks :blink:

Never mind, I managed. I just went to MyPhp, selected the database of the cart, dropped 'page type' from the table 'pages' and then executed (in sql):

 

ALTER TABLE pages ADD `page_type` int(2) default NULL;

INSERT INTO `pages` (`page_type`) VALUES ('1'),

('2');

 

The links show up now in any quantity I want. I also changed some code in catalog/admin/extra_info_pages.php and

 

 

I found:

 

---------------------------------

if ($action == 'insert') {

 

if($page_type == "1" || $page_type == "2" || $page_type == "3" || $page_type == "4" || $page_type == "5" || $page_type == "6" || $page_type == "7" || $page_type == "8" || $page_type == "9") {

-----------------------------------

 

and changed for

 

---------------------------------

if ($action == 'insert') {

 

if($page_type == "1" || $page_type == "2" || $page_type == "3" || $page_type == "4" || $page_type == "5" || $page_type == "6" || $page_type == "7" || $page_type == "8" || $page_type == "9"|| $page_type == "10" || $page_type == "11" || $page_type == "12" || $page_type == "13" || $page_type == "14" ) {

--------------------------------------

 

You can add as many as you want as "$page_type == "xx"

 

Also found

 

---------------------------------

if ($action == 'update') {

 

if($page_type == "1" || $page_type == "2" || $page_type == "3" || $page_type == "4" || $page_type == "5" || $page_type == "6" || $page_type == "7" || $page_type == "8" || $page_type == "9") {

-----------------------------------

 

and changed for

 

---------------------------------

if ($action == 'update') {

 

if($page_type == "1" || $page_type == "2" || $page_type == "3" || $page_type == "4" || $page_type == "5" || $page_type == "6" || $page_type == "7" || $page_type == "8" || $page_type == "9"|| $page_type == "10" || $page_type == "11" || $page_type == "12" || $page_type == "13" || $page_type == "14" ) {

--------------------------------------

 

and

 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

<option value="9" <? if($page_type == 9) { echo 'selected="selected"'; } ?>>9 - Old Page</option>

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

And changed it for

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<option value="9" <? if($page_type == 9) { echo 'selected="selected"'; } ?>>9 - Links</option>

<option value="10" <? if($page_type == 10) { echo 'selected="selected"'; } ?>>10 - Links</option>

<option value="11" <? if($page_type == 11) { echo 'selected="selected"'; } ?>>11 - Links</option>

<option value="12" <? if($page_type == 12) { echo 'selected="selected"'; } ?>>12 - Links</option>

<option value="13" <? if($page_type == 13) { echo 'selected="selected"'; } ?>>13 - Links</option>

<option value="14" <? if($page_type == 14) { echo 'selected="selected"'; } ?>>14 - Old Page</option>

 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Can add as many page types as you want.

 

I thought to add it to the contribution as an update but I am not that good at codes so just in case I made a mistake, I didn't add it as an update. If any of you more experienced guys see that all is fine, please add it as an update because many people is trying to get this contrib working with more than 9 pages. I have tried it only with external linked pages and it works, I don't know with internal pages.

This is a great contribution. I feel like it could do with a major improvement though. A lot of these extra pages contain content that is used to build up Page Rank and the URLs generated by this are not very SEO friendly. I was thinking it would be good to try to modify this contrib so that the pagename was used as the URL. Does anyone with a better understanding of the architecture of this contribution think that will be a tough thing to accomplish?

I'm having a wee bit of trouble with this contrib. it installed fine, but on the new contact now page I have lost the name, email, message fields that were on the original contact page. did I muck up somewhere or is there something else I have to do to get them up?

Index page for English pages...This text can be changed from the admin section...

 

the problem: this text displays on the main page of the cart

 

"Index page for English pages...This text can be changed from the admin section..."

 

this is displaying on the main page of my site and I can not change it???

it CANNOT be changed form the "Index page for English pages"

also the text: "Index page for English pages...This text can be changed from the admin section..." this verbaige does not exist in the english index.php page

 

The Solution is here: The problem is coming form the installation of: Extra pages-info box w-admin 4.6.1

(and possibly other versions of the mod.. I cant call that since this is the one I installed)

 

in the install instructions at approx line 125

it says

 

QUOTE

in catalog/index.php

 

AFTER

 

require('includes/application_top.php');

 

ADD

 

#################

$page_query = tep_db_query("select

p.pages_id,

p.sort_order,

p.status,

s.pages_title,

s.pages_html_text

from

" . TABLE_PAGES . " p LEFT JOIN " .TABLE_PAGES_DESCRIPTION . " s on p.pages_id = s.pages_id

where

p.status = 1

and

s.language_id = '" . (int)$languages_id . "'

and

p.page_type = 1");

 

 

$page_check = tep_db_fetch_array($page_query);

 

$pagetext=stripslashes($page_check[pages_html_text]);

 

 

#####################

 

same file

 

 

REPLACE

 

<?php echo TEXT_MAIN; ?>

 

 

WITH

 

<?php echo $pagetext; ?>

 

 

 

 

the problem is specifically with the lines

 

same file

 

*******source of the problem********

 

REPLACE

 

<?php echo TEXT_MAIN; ?>

 

 

WITH

 

<?php echo $pagetext; ?>[

 

 

*******source of the problem********

 

 

I have undone this edit and everything started working normally again

 

This mod also seems to be working fine without that specific line edit....

I intalled this contribution, and modified it to fit my template, however I'm stuck with this one problem which I know for most of you is very simple.... See the photo below, under the Informations section, I want the link to the Contact Us to be transparent, like the Information section below it. What line of code do I modify to get rid of that white highlight on the text??

Any help would be great.

 

Thanks, Angie

`page_type` char( 1 ) default NULL ,
PRIMARY KEY ( `pages_id` ) 
) TYPE = MYISAM AUTO_INCREMENT =4;



MySQL meldet:

What does it mean?

I am receiving the same error. Did this ever get resolved? I have osCommerce Online Merchant v2.2 RC2a and I installed Extra pages-info box w-admin 4.6.1. In admin I just get a blank page when I choose Extra Info Pages Manager.

 

Thanks

Hi!

 

I have now successfully finished installation of this package. :)

 

The only existing problem is how to change the colour of the text/font in the boxes from white to another colour.

 

I have tried to use the /catalog/stylesheets/stylesheet.css without any result.

 

Do anyone here have any suggestions? :rolleyes:

Go ahead and add it. No one ever worries if the updates have errors.

 

I agree. This is a nice Mod but with the lack of useful page title and meaningless URL, it has a long way to go before it adds value to a site.

I am currently working on some code to make it more SEO friendly, however it is not finished yet.

 

If anyone else has something already please post up!
