Janneshaagsman Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 What a cool contribution! I had experienced one problem but i solved it really easy. Each time i reloaded the page there was an empty field added to the attributes. So in line products_attributes.php comment out line 31. Cheers! Quote
Zappo Posted June 18, 2009 Author Posted June 18, 2009 Each time i reloaded the page there was an empty field added to the attributes. So in line products_attributes.php comment out line 31. That should not happen... I am also unable to reproduce that behavior... You say an empty field is added to the attributes. What do you mean? Product Attributes, Option Values or Options? Since the particular code involves only Option Values, and should only trigger when Option Value Text is not (yet) correctly set, I don't understand what's going wrong here... BUT, since the code is only a "safety measure", everything should work normally. If you ARE going to comment out that line, you can comment out the lines 25 - 34. (- Zappo - Option Types v2 - Check if the option_value TEXT_UPLOAD_NAME is in place, and insert if not found) These are unnecessary when line 31 is commented out... Is anyone else able to reproduce this behavior? Quote Like Eek said... It never hurts to help!----------------------------------------

How old the files must be for deletion, can be set via Admin. When i go in Admin and open Option Types ther is nothing there to be set. Title, Value, Action. Everything is emty. Whot i did wrong ??? Help "" Contribution is just beutiful. Great Thanks !!! Quote
Zappo Posted June 21, 2009 Author Posted June 21, 2009 (edited) When i go in Admin and open Option Types ther is nothing there to be set. Title, Value, Action. Everything is emty. Whot i did wrong ??? Help "" I have no idea what went wrong, but I'm guessing the SQL file wasn't (properly) executed... Go into your phpMyAdmin, and check the table "configuration_group" for the Option Types entry, and note the "configuration_group_id" number. Then check the table "configuration", and find the Option Type values (use progress bars?, Upload File Prefix, Delete Uploads older than, upload directory and temporary directory) These probably don't have the correct configuration_group_id... Set it to the value found in configuration_group Lat me know if it works out. We'll try another fix if it doesn't. Edited June 21, 2009 by Zappo Quote Like Eek said...

Thanks The difference between osCommerce 2.2rc2a and 2.2rc2 is VERY minimal: http://www.oscommerce.com/about/news,130 There are some bugs fixed in 2.2rc2a, but the rest is exactly the same! (2.2rc2a REPLACES 2.2rc2) Option Types v2 should even be usable in older versions (like 2.2ms2) Quote Like Eek said... It never hurts to help!----------------------------------------
chooch Posted June 22, 2009 Posted June 22, 2009 I downloaded this to peek at the files and visited your site to see it live - got to say it is a marked improvement on the buggy original Option Types contribution. I have not used it in a store yet but intend to. Many thanks for sharing it. Quote Upon receiving fixes and advice, too many people don't bother to post updates informing the forum of how it went. Until of course they need help again on other issues and they come running back! Why receive the information you require in good faith for free, only to then have the attitude to ignore the people who gave it to you? There's no harm in saying, 'Thanks, it worked'. On the contrary, it creates a better atmosphere. CHOOCH

chooch Posted June 22, 2009 Posted June 22, 2009 Thanks for the reply.That's exactly the reason I created it! Have you thought about linking your attributes to stock, or stock via QTPro? Or in essence just giving your created attributes 'stock' so they get deducted as per sale?

Zappo Posted June 22, 2009 Author Posted June 22, 2009 Have you thought about linking your attributes to stock, or stock via QTPro?Or in essence just giving your created attributes 'stock' so they get deducted as per sale? Actually, Yes, I have. However, I use accounting software that's linked to osCommerce. (osFinancials) Because of this, I have no use for QTPro. (I need to track real products for stock updating) I'll actually be creating an entirely new contrib: Products as Options. With that contrib, you'll be able to "group" products together as another product's Options: For example: Main product = Shirt, Option products = Red Shirt, Blue Shirt, Green Shirt When adding the product to the cart, it will use the selected Option Product as Main product... The big difference: products attributes are no "real products", and have no stock-tracking (inside my accounting software) Adding the Options as real products solves this problem...

ghurty Posted June 24, 2009 Posted June 24, 2009 Is it possible to have a "one-time" fee per attribute no matter the quantity, and a second recurring fee, that gets multiplied based on the quantity? Thanks Quote
Zappo Posted June 24, 2009 Author Posted June 24, 2009 Is it possible to have a "one-time" fee per attribute no matter the quantity, and a second recurring fee, that gets multiplied based on the quantity? That Should be possible, however you'll have to be willing to do some programming of your own... As I'm thinking of how to do this, I realize this isn't a very easy task... It would involve having a second price field for attributes, and different attribute handling (in application_top) when adding products. I'm not sure what you meant by quantity, but if you want the second fee to be used independent on the products selected, that would make things even harder... Quote Like Eek said...

ghurty Posted June 24, 2009 Posted June 24, 2009 I'm not sure what you meant by quantity, but if you want the second fee to be used independent on the products selected, that would make things even harder... " I mean that if you by 25 of an item, there will be for example a "one-time fee" of $.75 per attribute, and a $.25 fee per attribute that gets multiplied by 25. Quote
Zappo Posted June 24, 2009 Author Posted June 24, 2009 I mean that if you by 25 of an item, there will be for example a "one-time fee" of $.75 per attribute, and a $.25 fee per attribute that gets multiplied by 25. Ok, I get that, but with "an item" do you mean 25x the same product, OR 10x 'Product A', 10x 'Product B' and 5x 'Product C'?!? That makes a big difference, as attributes are (separately) linked to products. To osCommerce, 'Product A' with attribute 'Green' is not the same as 'Product A' with attribute 'Red'.... (which makes counting the number of added attributes somewhat difficult) Quote Like Eek said... It never hurts to help!----------------------------------------
jkenfield Posted June 24, 2009 Posted June 24, 2009 (edited) I currently have the older "Product Attributes - Option Type Feature" installed and working on my site but I really need to get passed the 32 max char limit for textboxes. How do you recommend I go about incorporating this contribution when I already have the other one installed? Edited June 24, 2009 by jkenfield Quote

To osCommerce, 'Product A' with attribute 'Green' is not the same as 'Product A' with attribute 'Red'.... (which makes counting the number of added attributes somewhat difficult) Ill give an example: We have a Birthday card. The birthday card base price is $1 per card, with a one time $2 design fee. The base birthday card is in black and white. There is an extra $.50 charge per color, with an extra $.10 design fee per color. So if someone orders 25 birthday cards in black and white, the total will be $27 ($25 cards + $2 design fee) If he orders 25 with two extra colors, then the price will be $52.20 ($50 cards + $2.20) Is this the first way or second way you mentioned Thank You Quote
Zappo Posted June 24, 2009 Author Posted June 24, 2009 I currently have the older "Product Attributes - Option Type Feature" installed and working on my site but I really need to get passed the 32 max char limit for textboxes. How do you recommend I go about incorporating this contribution when I already have the other one installed? I recommend uninstalling the "Old" Option Type Feature, and installing Option Types v2... :lol: Simply "Merging" the two is impossible. There are too many differences... However, I have used the "Old" Option Type Feature a long time ago, and if it's just the Character limit, I believe that option is available via Admin, in "product_attributes" (Option Value Length) It SHOULD work as it does in Option Types v2.... Ill give an example:............ Is this the first way or second way you mentioned In that case, at least the standard osCommerce behavior is kept. You'll be able to count the attributes already connected to a product... BUT, as I stated in an earlier post, this is not going to be a simple change!! You'll need at least SOME php skills...

I am an idiot...I swear that I had read that the max length was 32 characters for some reason and never tried to go beyond that, even with the ability to set max in admin. Oh well...if I hadn't gone down the path already with the older version, I would for sure install your contribution. It looks much nicer and easier to use. I wish I could just install the sorting abillity for the options...that is all I need at this point now that I got the char restriction figured out. :blush: Quote
RichSM Posted July 4, 2009 Posted July 4, 2009 Hello, Compliments to Zappo for the great work! I do have a little problem using this contribution though. The file name uploaded is not passed on and shown in the Cart. All other chosen options show up correctly in the Cart. The file however is uploaded in both the temp dir and the upload dir. I suspected that I might have got the admin configuration (upload option values) messed up somehow but I could not see where I went wrong after comparing my configuration with the screenshots you attached with the contribution. I wonder - where did you define "- Your picture:" ? (this is the cart output value for upload on your website) This might give me an idea how the text and upload values differs. Thank you. Rich Quote

Zappo, thanks for your quick response. The files are saved correctly in their respective directory. There is no problem here at all. Text input in product_info is also passed on to the cart correctly. No problem here either. I understand that Option types functionality are basically the same but my problem is that I can't define upload-option values in admin's option value type because it has been taken off the drop down list of values available. So I guess it has to be defined somewhere for it to show up. Yes, I did merged with other contributions, e.g QPBPP, SPPC Here is my case 'add_product' case 'add_product' : if (isset($HTTP_POST_VARS['products_id']) && is_numeric($HTTP_POST_VARS['products_id'])) { //BOF - Zappo - Option Types v2 - File uploading: save uploaded files with unique file names, in the proper folder $purgeDir = opendir(TMP_DIR) or die ('Could not open '.TMP_DIR); while ($file = readdir($purgeDir)) { if ($file != ('.htaccess') && filemtime(TMP_DIR . $file) < strtotime(OPTIONS_TYPE_PURGETIME)) { unlink(TMP_DIR . $file); // Delete file from server... tep_db_query("delete from " .

Zappo Posted July 4, 2009 Author Posted July 4, 2009 (edited) Is this ok? Nope. That's not ok... :D That great contribution isn't too hard to merge. You missed one line: You need to change your $cart->add_cart() (Where QPBPP changes are also made) FROM: $cart->add_cart($HTTP_POST_VARS['products_id'], $cart->get_quantity(tep_get_uprid($HTTP_POST_VARS['products_id'], $HTTP_POST_VARS['id'])) + $HTTP_POST_VARS['cart_quantity'], $HTTP_POST_VARS['id']); TO: $cart->add_cart($HTTP_POST_VARS['products_id'], $cart->get_quantity(tep_get_uprid($HTTP_POST_VARS['products_id'], $real_ids))+$HTTP_POST_VARS['cart_quantity'], $real_ids); That should do it... (Explanation: $HTTP_POST_VARS['id'] contains the attributes array, which is replaced by $real_ids so that the uploads can be added to this array) I can't define upload-option values in admin's option value type because it has been taken off the drop down list of values available. This is because the Upload (and Text) option VALUES are input by the customer! (The value is the given text, or the file) You just need the Options for Text, Textarea and Uploads. (However, the Option-Value "0 - CUSTOMER-INPUT" has to be set! (Should be done automatically)) Edited July 4, 2009 by Zappo multimixer 1 Quote Like Eek said...
