Search options (Page 3 of 13)

Sounds like it is not for the faint of heart!

I think I will skip that idea

Tom

I did notice that both the Long and Short names are searched from the web forms, so that may be a solution for the original poster.
It also may be suitable for me as well.

If not, your extra table suggestion will clearly do the job as well

Tom

update...

After considering the add-on updating for new and existing users, the extra table method seems much cleaner

Tom

Is this statement correct?

7. Now when you login as administrator, FA will ask you to update your database. 

I loaded the demo data from 2.3.26 into my 2.4.6 install and FA does not ask me to update my DB.

I can go do the update, but it never asks me.
What triggers this question from the code?

Is there something missing from mt DB?

Tom

I hope that FA2.4 correctly updates the DB...

Tom

I do see some differences... (table entry order, defaults, etc)

So I guess that the large jump I made caused some of the sql/alter.[sql|php] scripts to not run correctly

Has that been fixed in fa2.4.x?

I will load my db into fa2.3.26 and then to 2.4.6 and see if the db is better...

Tom

Well that explains it!

The extension I downloaded when running 2.4.6 contained an older version of the hooks.php file that did not contain

    function __construct() {
        $this->module_name = 'osc_orders';
    }

I downloaded the first 8-10 extensions from setup->install.activate extensions and found only a couple have the constructor called

I did not check github but I see the osc_orders was updated as part of what may have been a global update...

i am the author of osc_orders and I have a small update I would like to make..

I'd do it myself but I am not very good with git yet and only have this one change to be made...

Can do apply it to the sources? (2 lines changed) or I can email/pm the updated file...
Below: The updated file is on the right ">"

tom@w2vy:/var/www/html/fa/modules/osc_orders$ diff osCommerce.php /tmp/osCommerce.php

<                 // $_POST['OrderDate'] = $cart->document_date;
---
>                 $cart->document_date = sql2date($order['date_purchased']);

<                 $cart->due_date = Today();

>                 $cart->due_date = sql2date($order['date_purchased']);

Thanks!
Tom
ps. I just attached it as a txt file! I knew there as a way...

Ok, I looked around and it does have the add_rapp_function call

I am thinking that it has something to do with security

The code has:

define ('SS_OSCORDERS', 106<<8);

and

            case 'orders':
                $app->add_rapp_function(2, _('osCommerce Import'),
                    $path_to_root.'/modules/osc_orders/osCommerce.php', 'SA_OSCORDERS');
        }

Is 106 correct?

Any ideas? The module is listed as "osCommerce Order and Customer Import Module"
In the Install/Activate extension

Yes I activated it

The CVS Import items is working fine (# 105)

Tom

I have seen these steps mentioned in a few posts.

Why do you say to upgrade to Ver 2.3.26 (last version of FA2.3) before moving to FA2.4.x?
Does this last version save things differently or the upgrade?

I ask because In Theory any FA2.3 version should have the same DB structure

Tom

I tried that but I can't because I had already received items on the PO
