Open Source Services

Hi Maarten

Thanks for the continued interest in our product.

You have been very patient during this time. I have been taking care of premium custumers who have purchased products or services and take priority over free-version enquiries. I hope you understand.

Anyway, I think the easiest way to solve this would be if you could send me your FTP account details and osCommerce login details via the support email or the contact form on this website. I would then fix this problem within 24 hours for you. Free of charge.

Regards

Nick

Hi could i find out if this was resolved and if so how as i am experiencing the same issue.

Hello

Thank you for your enquiry. If you send me your FTP account details and osCommerce admin login details via the support email address or the contact form on this site, I'd be happy to take a look at your installation for you.

It will be one or two days before I will have time to look at it.

Regards

Nick

hi,

i appreciate that you are busy and that you have taken the time to reply. i am not comfortable with giving out ftp access to my site. i am sure this is a very simple problem, and it is urgant for myslef with xmas next week. is there not record of how this was previously fixed that i could trouble shoot myself?

Hi

Please make sure that you have only assigned one content item to one position. If you have created any more content items for the same position, it might not work, even if you have set 'Active' to 'No'. This is a limitation of the free version. The work around is to create a new position for each content item.

Apart from this, I would suggest that you make sure your position code in the index.php file is not placed within a conditional loop which may skip its execution under certain conditions.

Good luck

hi,

ok i have created a new page called test.php with only the

<?php require_once(DIR_WS_FUNCTIONS . 'proforma.php'); doProformaContent('test'); ?>

position code. the first problem was the DIR_WS_FUNCTIONS in this file and the includes/functions/proforma.php. i needed to hard code the address (i dont use the catalog folder either). which has now brought the following error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: doproformacontent() in D:\mydomain.com\test.php

there is only one content unit and it is assigned to position "test" and substring "test.php".

any ideas?

ignore that, not the issue. still not idea.

mmm have revisited this and cant figure out why it has the fatal error:

Call to undefined function: doproformacontent() in index.php and the test.php.

any ideas?

hi,

I have installed this on another site i have and it works fine the only difference is the catalog folder. the site this works on has the sites files in the catalog folder while the one it does not work on does not have the catalog folder and has all the files in the main sites directory.

that being the case, which files should i look at to address this?

thanks.

Hi

There could be one of two things wrong. Either:

1) In your configure.php file you are still using the 'catalog' folder in some constant definitions on the site which doesn't have a 'cataolg' folder. In particular, make sure the your definition for DIR_WS_FUNCTIONS leads to the folder where there's a 'proforma.php' file.

2) Somewhere n the free Proforma distribution there is a hard-coded reference to the catalog folder as part of a path. To find if this is the case, do a 'Find in Files'-type search for the string 'catalog/' on the Proforma distribution which you unzipped. If you find a hardcoded reference, you can change it to suit your directory structure.

Hope this helps.
