configuring php

[chandni]

hello there,

i have downloaded an oscommerce template from bluevoda and trying to configure it...but i am lost..can anyone help me with how the confiq.php file look the third step says

 

add these lines to your /catalog/includes/configure.php script. These lines

should go before the final line with the ?> characters on it.

 

// STS: ADD: Define Simple Template System files

define('STS_START_CAPTURE', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'sts_start_capture.php');

define('STS_STOP_CAPTURE', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'sts_stop_capture.php');

define('STS_RESTART_CAPTURE', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'sts_restart_capture.php');

define('STS_TEMPLATE_DIR', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'sts_templates/');

define('STS_DEFAULT_TEMPLATE', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'sts_template.html');

define('STS_DISPLAY_OUTPUT', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'sts_display_output.php');

define('STS_USER_CODE', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'sts_user_code.php');

define('STS_PRODUCT_INFO', DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'sts_product_info.php');

// STS: EOADD

 

NOTE: DO NOT put the files in the /admin/ directories. This contribution

only works in the /catalog/ section.

I would try following the below instructions pulled from: http://www.oscommerce.com/community/contri...ch,STS+template

 

Installation

 

NOTE: These install instructions refer to the "catalog" folder of your store, as it is in standard osCommerce 2.2MS2. If you have changed the name of this folder, to "store" or "shop" for example, use this name instead of "catalog" when you read the instructions. In any case, the folder structure in the STS package follows the structure of osCommerce, so you should be able to see where the files should be copied.

 

1) Make a backup of your application.

2) Do it again

 

3a) If you have a fresh MS2 installation, copy the files from the folder "clean_osc/catalog" over your catalog. This will overwrite some original files and add new ones. That's it, you can now jump to the configuration section, little bit more down this document.

 

3b) If you have already installed other contributions, copy only new files to your application. All new files are located in the "upload/catalog" folder. You then have to do some changes manually. Continue reading:
