Shopping Cart Box Doesn't Show

[♥akmac]

Hi All!

I've got this little snippet in my column_right.php:

if ($cart->count_contents() > 0) include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'shopping_cart.php');

So that my shopping cart box doesn't show unless something is in the cart. Works great!

 

But, can anyone modify it to include a gift voucher balance in the IF statement so that IF a customer has a Gift Voucher balance-the cart box shows? Right now, it doesn't show.

 

Thanks!

 

If you need some bits and pieces from the ccgv contrib to get it to play-I'm happy to dig for it. I can FIND code-just can't WRITE it ;-)

Anyone... How would I modify the line to detect whether a gift voucher balance is available-and display the shopping cart box?

were are you storing the information of they have a gift Voucher balance

Not sure, but here's a bit of code from the ccgv contribution that might tell you where...?

 

 ?if (tep_session_is_registered('customer_id')) {
? ?$gv_query = tep_db_query("select amount from " . TABLE_COUPON_GV_CUSTOMER . " where customer_id = '" . $customer_id . "'");
? ?$gv_result = tep_db_fetch_array($gv_query);
? ?if ($gv_result['amount'] > 0 ) {

 

THanks!

Is there such a thing as an "and" statement? It seems to me that something like this should work:

 

if ($cart->count_contents() > 0) and ($gv_result['amount'] > 0 )include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'shopping_cart.php');

 

 

But it don't.

 

<asking for a php guru to see why the above line causes my right column to disappear =-)>

[♥akmac]

if ($cart->count_contents() > 0) and ($gv_result['amount'] > 0 )include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'shopping_cart.php');

 

Now I know something in this line is killing my whole right_column. Who can tell me what it is? A misplaced character? incorrect phrase? What? Please help...

[♥akmac]

if ($cart->count_contents() > 0) and ($gv_result['amount'] > 0 )include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'shopping_cart.php');

 

Can anyone correct that line so it works?

[Guest]

if ($cart->count_contents() > 0 && $gv_result['amount'] > 0 )
 include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'shopping_cart.php');

[♥akmac]

if ($cart->count_contents() > 0 && $gv_result['amount'] > 0 )
?include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'shopping_cart.php');

Thanks Enigma1, for replying (te me and everyone else) everytime I look in here you're answering questions-THANKS. Anyway, for some reason, now the shopping cart box won't show at all...

 

Any ideas?

 

I suppose I need it to show if EITHER there is a gift balance, OR an Item is in the cart, as right now I suppose it's set to only display if both are true (it doesn't). If that makes any sense...

[Guest]

ok lets try this:

 

if ($cart->count_contents() > 0 || $gv_result['amount'] > 0 )
include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'shopping_cart.php');

 

I dont have the gifts contrib installed so its a lot of guesswork really :lol:

[♥akmac]

Progress! Now it shows with an item in the cart-but not if there is just a GV balance....

is that $gv_result array a global variable? Can you find out where it is defined? Has to be a global otherwise you're comparing with something undefined.

The code from post number 5 is in catalog/includes/boxes/shopping_cart.php

 

  $gv_result = tep_db_fetch_array($gv_query);

 

Does that help?

[Guest]

there is a check

tep_session_is_registered('customer_id')

 

meaning someone has to be logged in and has also an entry in this coupn table. Did you check if both of these conditions are met when you checked the cart box?

Yes, I was logged in with a gift voucher balance. When I add an item to my cart, the cart shows, but not before.

ok I see the file the var is set inside the shopping_cart.php box itself so aint going to work you will have to change that file or theoretically you should always include the shopping cart box because there is a check in there for the contents and the coupons. At least thats the intention of the code as I understand it.

can I set the var in column_right.php? Might that work?

[Guest]

yes you could. Just a bit of duplicate code and queries if thats ok:

// ############ Added CCGV Contribution ##########
?if (tep_session_is_registered('customer_id')) {
? ?$gv_query = tep_db_query("select amount from " . TABLE_COUPON_GV_CUSTOMER . " where customer_id = '" . $customer_id . "'");
? ?$gv_result = tep_db_fetch_array($gv_query);
? ?if ($cart->count_contents() > 0 || $gv_result['amount'] > 0 ) {
? ? ?include(DIR_WS_BOXES . 'shopping_cart.php');
? ?}
?}

something like this

Very slick-thank you sir!

Weird. It worked for awhile, now the cart box doesn't show at all! Something to do with those duplicate queries maybe? I haven't messed with it at all-promise!
