Customer Extra Fields w/Extra Product Fields already installed

[loesberg]

I would like to install Customer Extra Fields (http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/3737) and I already have Extra Product Fields (http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/6856) installed. A couple of the file names in these contributions are the same, so the installation process is not as simple as just moving the files into the appropriate folders. Has anyone done this before, or anything like it?

 

Thanks,

Jesse

I haven't heard of the customer extra fields contribution. If the conflicting file names are simply the administration maintenance files like extra_fields.php you should be able to get by with renaming the file (don't forget to rename it's language file the same) and adjusting the define in filenames.php to match. If they use the same defined name (FILENAME_EXTRA_FIELDS) then things will be much more complicated and you would need to edit one of the contributions to use a totally new defined name. If the conflict is a database table (doubtful) then rename one table and adjust the define in database_tables.php. If there is a conflict in the defined name (TABLE_EXTRA_FIELDS) then once again you would need to totally edit one contribution. Best of luck to you.
