Problem with Product_new.php

[JemCraft]

I am trying to solve the problem of all my products being listed in the New Products section of my website.

 

I am using the oscommerce knowledgebase fix here.

 

It says

 

In catalog/products_new.php about line 56 find this code:

 

 

$Qproducts = $osC_Database->query('select p.products_id, pd.products_name, p.products_image, p.products_price, p.products_tax_class_id, p.products_date_added, m.manufacturers_name from :table_products p left join :table_manufacturers m on (p.manufacturers_id = m.manufacturers_id), :table_products_description pd where p.products_status = 1 and p.products_id = pd.products_id and pd.language_id = :language_id order by p.products_date_added desc, pd.products_name');

 

Change to:

 

 

$Qproducts = $osC_Database->query('select p.products_id, pd.products_name, p.products_image, p.products_price, p.products_tax_class_id, p.products_date_added, m.manufacturers_name from :table_products p left join :table_manufacturers m on (p.manufacturers_id = m.manufacturers_id), :table_products_description pd where p.products_status = 1 and p.products_id = pd.products_id and pd.language_id = :language_id and month(p.products_date_added) = month(now()) and year(p.products_date_added) = year(now()) order by p.products_date_added desc, pd.products_name');

 

However my catalog products_new.php says

 

$products_new_query_raw = "select p.products_id, pd.products_name, p.products_image, p.products_price, p.products_tax_class_id, p.products_date_added, m.manufacturers_name from " . TABLE_PRODUCTS . " p left join " . TABLE_MANUFACTURERS . " m on (p.manufacturers_id = m.manufacturers_id), " . TABLE_PRODUCTS_DESCRIPTION . " pd where p.products_status = '1' and p.products_id = pd.products_id and pd.language_id = '" . (int)$languages_id . "' order by p.products_date_added DESC, pd.products_name";

 

I have tried inserting

 

and month(p.products_date_added) = month(now()) and year(p.products_date_added) = year(now()

 

after the

 

and pd.language_id = '" . (int)$languages_id . "'

 

however I get the following error on the new products page of my site:

 

1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '' at line 1

 

select count(*) as total from products p left join manufacturers m on (p.manufacturers_id = m.manufacturers_id), products_description pd where p.products_status = '1' and p.products_id = pd.products_id and pd.language_id = '1'and month(p.products_date_added) = month(now()) and year(p.products_date_added) = year(now()

Can anyone help? Please?!

 

Many thanks

Why not just disable the new products module?

If what you posted below is actually what you entered, then you are missing a ')' after 'year(now()': it should read:

 

year(now())

 

Fix this to see if you can go any further.

Why not just disable the new products module?

 

Because I think it helps people to acutally see what's new on the first page - kind of draws them in a bit further.

 

Thanks GemRock, I'll check my code again.
