When clicking on any item from these three points it sells you the wrong item...any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Hi toolexperts,

Well you had it right just a moment ago and now I can see you're changing the code. It was adding to the cart perfectly, with the right items as well. Approx 5 minutes ago with url modifier as well.

Now I can see errors in some of the urls and it's not adding to the cart.

Don't panic - deep breaths. Make sure everything was backed up - don't close anything that could be solved with a few undos, etc.

Not sure if you've put it back again - but everything appears to be fine.

Elaborate when you've come back to the original problem.

Re: Kube, Balinor, ANyone, PLease help, saerch, featured items, and bestellers issues
 

here is what's happening, if you go to the site and click on one of the featured items (renamed only on the top bar as monthly specials) and then go to add to cart when the item pulls up, you will see what i am talking about, it takes you to another item instead of selling you the correct item. The same issue appears in the bestsellers too, but only on the main page. When clicking on the bestsellers in a department it works correctly, so i am assuming something on the main page is messed up.


EDIIT: This is also occuring when searching for an item and then trying to add it to cart

Hi toolexperts,

Are you referring to the columns rather than the actual main areas? Then maybe something is up... However, I did notice rogue bracers appearing from those links when I selected the text. Not too sure at this moment if it has anything to do with it? See Attached...

Actually here is what i am talking about When clicking on the monthly special (featured item) it takes you to it's page, but when you try to add to cart you get the wrong item

Hi again toolexperts - I see what you mean now ;D

You have 2 the same pages; one that works and the other doesn't.

Working:
http://216.75.30.97/work-and-safety-apparel/rain-gear/60-rain-coat/r4160.html
Not working:
http://216.75.30.97/product.php?productid=17345

At the moment I have no ideas what could be causing this.

The only difference between those two pages is that the working one contains this...
<input type="hidden" name="cat" value="326" />
And the one that doesn't work contains no value for cat...
<input type="hidden" name="cat" value="" />

Find out why that number has been omitted and it should add to cart.

Re: Kube, Balinor, ANyone, PLease help, saerch, featured items, and bestellers issues
 

okay figured something out... the url that you are passing to the page has the wrong 'cat' id number...

This works:
http://216.75.30.97/product.php?productid=17345&cat=326&page=1
Your original url from the home page doesn't - it's passing a 0
http://216.75.30.97/product.php?productid=17345&cat=0&page=1

Hope this gets you closer

Re: Kube, Balinor, ANyone, PLease help, saerch, featured items, and bestellers issues
 

where should i be looking to rectify this? should i maybe pul the items out of the department and try redoing them?

Re: Kube, Balinor, ANyone, PLease help, saerch, featured items, and bestellers issues
 

What file are you calling to produce the those items? Is it customer/main/products.tpl or have you replicated the file and used it to fashion it your own way?

Re: Kube, Balinor, ANyone, PLease help, saerch, featured items, and bestellers issues
 

It's actually the mod for the featured items that allows it to display on the right bar

Re: Kube, Balinor, ANyone, PLease help, saerch, featured items, and bestellers issues
 

Ah right ok (x-cart's default featured mod correct?)

If this is so then what happened to the var &featured that gets applied to the end of the url? Although it still will not work with your store, I am just wondering what exactly you have altered.

In your home.tpl file did you call featured items within the TD VertMenuRightColumn like so?...

{include file="customer/main/featured.tpl" f_products=$f_products}

Re: Kube, Balinor, ANyone, PLease help, saerch, featured items, and bestellers issues
 

yeah...i figured it out though in the menu_fetured.tpl, in that cat area it was showing just {cat} so I assigned it cat 330...it worked...so now it looks like

<a href=product.php?productid={$f_products[num].productid}&cat={330}&page={$navigation_page}>>
{include file="product_thumbnail.tpl" productid=$f_products[num].productid image_x=75 product=$f_products[num].product tmbn_url=$f_products[num].tmbn_url}
</a>

Re: Kube, Balinor, ANyone, PLease help, saerch, featured items, and bestellers issues
 

I'm pretty sure it's something else as it shouldn't be reliant on the cat id for featured items but that was the only difference that was occuring.

Also you should be weary of your code that you're outputting... above you have an extra > after {$navigation_page}>. And for your bestsellers you still have an extra } being printed. If these were to be cleaned up and rechecked you'll probably find out why the options are coming up with errors.

Re: Kube, Balinor, ANyone, PLease help, saerch, featured items, and bestellers issues
 

yeah i am looking into it still as my search, and recommended items are doing the same thing...

Re: Kube, Balinor, ANyone, PLease help, saerch, featured items, and bestellers issues
 

i cleaned that code up now it's not doing the bestsellers right...funny thing is it's only happening on the main page

Re: Kube, Balinor, ANyone, PLease help, saerch, featured items, and bestellers issues
 

I give up...i can't figure it out 3 things are busted...

Re: Kube, Balinor, ANyone, PLease help, saerch, featured items, and bestellers issues
 

if someone could give me some possible files that may be causing the issue I can look at them

Re: Kube, Balinor, ANyone, PLease help, saerch, featured items, and bestellers issues
 

What about comparing them to the original files you have. Say, in /skin1_original or the files that you started with?

Re: Kube, Balinor, ANyone, PLease help, saerch, featured items, and bestellers issues
 

i looked there is some difference but the pages work outside of the main.tpl

like the best sellers, they work whenever the featured items arent there and my search does the same thing...i am sinking fast here

Re: Kube, Balinor, ANyone, PLease help, saerch, featured items, and bestellers issues
 

since it's not working this way...i am curious if I can just code my own html into it...

Re: Kube, Balinor, ANyone, PLease help, saerch, featured items, and bestellers issues
 

ok....if i pull the featured items off the right side menu, and just allow the bestsellers to be there, it works fine...so now I need to know how to make the bestsellers and the featured items coexist on the right column
