Duplicate "Product Status" for "Product Discontinued"

[jhande]

I had it working with my old 2.2 MS2 shop but have lost those files. Now I can't for the life of me figure it out.

 

What I am trying to do is add a feature in admin panel just like the "Status" for a "Discontinued" feature.

 

I have added a column to the products table and edited admin/categories.php, admin/includes/functions/general.php, language file, etc...

 

I had it working when I make the selection on the product edit page but not the category/product list page, it would change the "Status" in stead.

 

I have tried and tried editing the code but just can't seem to get it correctly.

 

Really need some help with this!!!

 

 

I think the problem resides with this bit of code that I can't seem to duplicate correctly.

 

 if (tep_not_null($action)) {
   switch ($action) {
  case 'setflag':
    if ( ($HTTP_GET_VARS['flag'] == '0') || ($HTTP_GET_VARS['flag'] == '1') ) {
	  if (isset($HTTP_GET_VARS['pID'])) {
	    tep_set_product_status($HTTP_GET_VARS['pID'], $HTTP_GET_VARS['flag']);
	  }

	  if (USE_CACHE == 'true') {
	    tep_reset_cache_block('categories');
	    tep_reset_cache_block('also_purchased');
	  }
    }

 

I even tried this that I found but can't get that to work - http://www.oscmax.com/forums/custom-mods-hacks/28300-discontinued-products.html

 

If the rest of my edited code needs to be posted let me know and I will gladly go through it.

follow the admin part, use "discontinued" instead of "featured".
