This hack works great but the instructions as posted have errors in them.

I don't remember off hand but there was a } missing in one of the instructions and a couple of missing ");

There's also a line that is commented out for some reason that should be uncommented so that the script works as it should.

Otherwise it works as advertised. I modifed the script to not reveal how many items I have in stock, but rather announce low quantities if I had less than 10 available. On the checkout screen I had it list "Yes" for Instock instead of the qty once again, but if they tried to order more than what I had available it would then give them the big red quantity.

Thanks Bill for a great mod!

[Guest tdm]

would you like to share your files because i'm getting the same problem.

[Guest tinusrinus]

:) I'm having trouble too would you try to explain where to place them because i don't have any expirience at all with php programming.

So it's hard to find out for me.

Hello all

Sorry for the mistakes,

Here are some changes

In the files that you dowloaded

open view_products.txt that first section remove the // Auto update mod Addition

Go Down To the 216 Line change andat the very bottom of the replace code

after </table>"; add this symbol }

So it look like this </table>";}

im still going throu the code to check for more errors

Tell me what pages are givig the errors and line numbers

Makes it easyer to find the errors

Once again sorry for the errors This is my first mod.

Hello folks and congats to wild bill for a great mod. I sympathise, bugs are very easy to come by and one of the most frustating can be with curly brackets.

If you want to email me a fixed solution I'll update the download package. :)

I would like to know what you changed in the code to accomplish this. This sounds like it would be a plus for my store.

Thanks.

[Guest]

Hey

if you tell me the page you access and the error it gives with the line number i can tell you what the prob is

Remeber you have to create a new column called instock in you story_inventory table, for your database

[Guest]

I'm a bit new to this how do i add the new row??

[Guest xyncro©]

- To Bill -

regarding your instock_mod

i saw somewhere here in the forum that when the instock reaches let say 5 items the store will get an e-mail to 'fill up' more products, and when instock reaches 0 items the 'not in stock' button will automatically appear.

does this mod of yours have this function ??

[Guest]

Hey xyncro©

The Instock Mod will only display "out of stock" when the product reaches 0.

Ther Email function im still working on

Hope that will be up soon

Best Regards,

Bill aka wildbill

sh*t

i'm just getting a lot of jibberish when installing this mod

i don't even know where to start and fix it up

could it be that hktsonys instock_mod that i have installed is messing things up ?

i guess i need to make a clean new install of cc !!

....

The errors are gone but

i still have a problem with editing products

something is wrong because

i have a field in admin/products/edit where i can just enter what i like

and the result of this what i have written is displayed on the frontside along with the description

this is not right

it should either give me 'put in basket' or 'not instock' after changing in admin

I have mabye solved your problem if i have right that will say.

So my question to you are: Have you added a new column in the database? If not then do that and see if it works better then

The new column will be added in Store_inventory and is needed to be called instock

Hope it helps!

[Guest xyncro©]

Hej !

I have store inventory installed since i installed hkstsonys instock_mod

when i check phpmyadmin i see, ' Instock char(3) No Null Standard Yes '

[Guest xyncro©]

...

like i said i have a number displayed in the description field

it looks like this :100

(if my stock would be 100)

when buying up all in my stock this number changed so i asume that this 'number' should contain the text 'currently in stock' infront of the :

how do i change this ??

[Guest Mini]

Um.... help!

Installed Cubecart - no problems at all. Works great.

Installed Auto Instock Update mod and I can't get it to work.

When trying to add a product it gives me the following error;

Parse error: parse error, expecting `','' or `';'' in /u1/home/ellismod/public_html/store/admin/add_product.php on line 213

I've checked the code, and as far as I can tell, I've done everything correct so far as the instructions go.

Any ideas?

Likewise. It would be much better to announce 'in stock' or 'low quantity' without actually having it show exactly how many are available.

I'd be interested to know how this was done (since I'm a complete beginner )

PS Solved my earlier problem by the way.

[Guest franck~]

There are actually lots of syntax errors in this great MOD.

One is in secure.php, in the "Adjust Instock Amount" section

This line:

$sql_update = "update ".$prefix."store_inventory set instock='$new_ins' where product='$product';";

has an error at the end, the extra ;

It should be:

$sql_update = "update ".$prefix."store_inventory set instock='$new_ins' where product='$product'";

Then, in the same section instead of this:

$description = nl2br($description);

 // End Adjust Instock Amount

  

           foreach ($product_options as $assign_id)

  { 

// get data

A } is missing. It should be:

$description = nl2br($description);

 }

// End Adjust Instock Amount

  

           foreach ($product_options as $assign_id)

  { 

// get data

There are more in other files. I can try to make a list and post it here, but then it would be nice to update the file in the download section, because people are still downloading a MOD with errors in it.

Although it's a good and nice MOD.

[Guest [email protected]]

<_< Yes, it would be great if you guys that got this thing working could post your working files to update the non working download that exists now. This sounds like a really usefull mod, but I'm a bit leary to install it with so much falderall envolved in debugging it.
