how to make Contribution - X-Sell v2-MS2 - Cross Sell for MS2 create cross products for shopping cart

[aelalfy1989]

Hi everyone,

 

I downloaded this contribution in the hope to be able to add cross products in the shopping cart. but quickly noticed that its designed to be places in the product info page. so I decided to test that for fun. And changed the code so that it matches my site and the rest of my infoboxes. But in the end of the day thats not what I wanted it for. I wanted to for example add a product to my shopping cart and below have it display " Recommended for you" box below that will show 6 cross products that I selected for that product. As I mentioned above when I tested the infobox in the product info page, it worked and the cross products appeared. But when I moved that infobox to my shopping cart nothing came up. How can I make it work?

 

Here is the code:

Someone when I read around used a weird code that I tried but got an error. the code above doens't generate any errors but doesn't generate any products.

If someone can help, please let me know.

 

P.S I have asked questions before on this forum and some people seem to be on their period (don't want to mention names), but they seem to be rude and try to be smarter than they really are. So if you are kind enough to keep it nice and kind that would be great. I rather get no help, then someone give me a rude and non sense answer. Sorry but I don't like rude people

 

Thanks in advance for whoever can help.

Hi,

 

It maybe advisable to keep some of your comments to yourself (period), remember that it is not always easy to understand what an individual wants to create in osc. Advice is given for free many on herespend a lot of time trying to help people because they are good at what they do and want to help.

 

If I get this correctly you would like to display in catalog/shopping_cart.php the products that you want to cross sell with the item thats in the shopping cart, rather than have them displayed elsewhere on the site.

 

So you need a way of calling them to the shopping cart page. Hope someone can help as I wouldnt mnd doing this myself.
