Hi all I'm new.

 

I was a zen cart owner, but zen-cart and Paypal IPN seems to hate eachother lately, so I have installed OSC and I'm happy with it :lol:

Everything works fine except for the fact that I'm struggling for weeks to get 5 contri's to work.

 

I've been more busy to put my back-up back then that the contri's work.

 

I'm scared to try it again, and lose my shop again.

 

Is there a place, person, anything in the big world that can help me with this?

 

I'm not a programmer, html specialist or phpgenie (phpbb ok but that's it) but just a woman who wants to have a store with a couple of extra's.

 

So please don't ask me which errors I get, cause I won't touch those thingies anymore :lol:

 

Gratefull for ever

The better contribs have forum threads set up, which also indicates the writer is prepared to support that contrib.

Okie....have to mail each and everyone of them lol

 

I find the contribs hard to figure out, cause on the page the adjustments will up the contrib, so you have to download the contrib + each and every fix that came later, not very handy

 

thnx for the reply

I would avoid contribs with lots of extra little bug fixes to do, to often ends up breaking things & sometime people put up a bug fix that only actually applies to their setup!

 

Pick ones with full package & few or no following fixes. Also if contrib is old it may not work properly with latest osC.

Do not mail them, use the forum to get the answers like Spooks said.

 

It is so annoying when an addon has lots of little patches, particularly when it is not the author that isproviding the patches. In cases where the author has requested that people do not post patches, people still do.

 

Anyway, look for the add on you want, check to see when the last full package was provided, check if it has a support thread and the author is still providing support.

 

You will soon get the hang off it.

thnx for the info, english is not my native language so it's hard to find the proper contribs

 

I want the admin levels, but support thread isn't up anymore, I tried the simple admin, but even that didn't work for me
