Header tags with new install

[Guest]

Hiya

 

I have put this post in the contribution support but had no response. 'Scuse me for posting it twice.

 

I installed the header tags contribution over an existing installtion of OsCommerce and had a couple of problems. So, I decided to do a complete new installation and then installed the header tags contribution again.

 

I am still getting the same problem of the product price not showing up in the shopping cart.

 

I am entering a price of ?16.99 but when I go back in to check admin the price is showing up as ?16.9900

 

Is this a problem with the OsCommerce installation or with the header tag contribution and does anyone know how to fix it?

 

Please can someone help me?

 

Beg! :-"

Just to start off with the obvious: Does it say "Decimal Places: 2" in admin>localisation>currencies?

Hi Skylla,

 

Yes, it's set to 2

I see what you're talking about now: the price of the product in admin. It is actually correct behaviour: it needs to store 1 or 2 extra decimal places to get the correct rounding off after % tax, % discount, additions for total etc. So it is STORED in 4 decimals, however, the price catalogue site is SHOWN with 2 decimals - or whatever number you have set it in admin. Nothing to worry about.

 

Good luck!

Oh lol,

 

OK so that's normal behaviour but why aren't my prices showing up on the cart

That's normal behaviour too.. :)

 

Try this: in catalog/includes/languages/english.php

 

line ~38, change

 

define('LANGUAGE_CURRENCY', 'USD');

 

to

 

define('LANGUAGE_CURRENCY', 'GBP');

 

Please, make backups first!

Hiya

 

Thanks .. tried that .. makes no difference

Are you putting the currency symbol in front of the price?

 

That doesn't work.

 

So enter 16.99, not ?16.99.

 

See if it helps :)

I'm assuming here that this problem is non-HTC related. Have you still got a fresh unmodified version of osC, maybe local, where you can default to GBP, change locality of your store, currency settings, taxes etc and then check for correct pricing w/ & w/o tax catalogue side?

 

Maybe you have already done so and know for sure that it is HTC related, in that case I'm afraid I would not know how to progress, except for checking over and over again for the made changes...

Good one Mark!

Hiya

 

erm, no lol I am not putting the currency symbol in - hopefully I ain't that green.

 

Ok - I'm going to go back and do another completely fresh install and check at each stage that everything is working - hopefully by a process of elimination I can discover whats causing the problem

 

Watch this space.

Hiya

 

I think I've found the problem......

 

In the catalogue install instructions it says .....

 

NOTE: In any page in which you make the change to the title for Header Tags, you should also locate the line containing HEADING_TITLE, remove the pageHeading class and add the h1 tags as above.

 

Believe it or not I simply hadn't seen this previously !

 

I've found the line ....

 

<td class="pageHeading"><?php echo HEADING_TITLE; ?></td>

<td class="pageHeading" align="right"><?php echo tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'table_background_products_new.gif', HEADING_TITLE, HEADING_IMAGE_WIDTH, HEADING_IMAGE_HEIGHT); ?></td>

 

But, does it mean replace just the top line or both lines with ....

 

<td valign="top"><h1><?php echo $products_name; ?></h1></td>

<td align="right" valign="top"><h1><?php echo $products_price; ?></h1></td>

 

Any help appreciated.

just the top line should do, if that's what's really required [edit] - I don't have the install instructions in front of me, but some search engines have a higher 'affinity' for h1 class than any other class, so that would make sense.
