Here's a mod I did on cart-lab.com, I was sick of re-updating the product html every time I made a change to my products. It works in a sense that it will update the product's html counter part, however all subsequent pages, like index.html and related product(s), etc. Wont be generated, so you end up having to regenerate the html catalog again. If anyone wants to take it a step further into 4.0.x perhaps and add the missing features to make it complete feel free.

admin/html_catalog.php after:

func_html_location("html_catalog.php",30);

add the following:

# -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
# Generate HTML after file modify/add product mod by cart-lab.com
# -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
	} elseif($REQUEST_METHOD=="GET" && $mode=="gen") {

	# no name style defined use underscore by default
  $namestyle = $namestyle ? true : "hyphen";

	# stripped down version of original my_save_data function 
	function save_data_nooutput($filename, $data) {
		global $hc_state, $count;
		$fp = fopen($filename, "w+");
		if (!$fp) {
			echo "<font color=red>Cannot save file: ".$filename."</font>";
			x_session_save();
			exit;
		}
		fwrite($fp, $data);
		$count++;
	}

  # naming convientions
	if ($namestyle == "hyphen") {
		$hc_state["product_namestyle"] = "{product_name}-p-{productid}.html";
	}	elseif ($namestyle == "new") {
		$hc_state["product_namestyle"] = "{product_name}_p_{productid}.html";
	}	else {
		$hc_state["product_namestyle"] = "product_{productid}_{product_name}.html";
	}

	if($productid) {

		#list($http_headers, $page_src) = func_http_get_request($site_location["host"].":".$site_location["port"], $site_location["path"].DIR_CUSTOMER."/home.php", "");
		#$page_src = process_page($page_src);
		#save_data_nooutput("$cat_dir/index.html", $page_src);
		
		$product_data = func_query("SELECT product, productid, categoryid, categoryid1, categoryid2, categoryid3 FROM $sql_tbl[products] WHERE productid=$productid");
		list($http_headers, $page_src) = func_http_get_request($site_location["host"].":".$site_location["port"], $site_location["path"].DIR_CUSTOMER."/product.php", "productid=$productid");
		$page_src = process_page($page_src);
		$page_name = product_filename($product_data[0]["productid"], $product_data[0]["product"]); 
		save_data_nooutput("$cat_dir/$page_name", $page_src);		
		
		$smarty->assign("main","product_modify_message");
	  @include $xcart_dir."/modules/gold_display.php";
	  $smarty->display("admin/home.tpl");
	}
	
# -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Next edit include/product_modify.php and find the code segment:

	} else {
#
# Form filled with errors
#

Paste the following above it

# -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
# Generate HTML after file modify/add product mod by cart-lab.com
# -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=	
	func_header_location("..".DIR_ADMIN."/html_catalog.php?mode=gen&productid=$productid");
# -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

This is Excellent Mod. This way I won't have to generate whole 1500 product catalgo just for one single product modification!

Will this work in 3.4.0
thanks

[B00MER]

It *MAY* work in 3.4.x all you should need to change is the "..".DIR_ADMIN."/html_catalog.php to "../admin/html_catalog.php

I get this error after saving a product:

Warning: fsockopen(): php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known in /home2/softsell/pointofsaledepot-www/store/include/func.php on line 2801

Warning: fsockopen(): unable to connect to www.pointofsaledepot.com::80 in /home2/softsell/pointofsaledepot-www/store/include/func.php on line 2801

It then creates a 0 byte html file.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Generating the HTML cat regularly generate any errors?

[POSDepot]

nope .. just after I edit a product.

[jeeya]

I tried in and after modifying when I clicked submit button, on next page header it gave following error. And html catalog part for that product page stayed blank.

Warning: fsockopen(): php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known in /home/mysite/public_html/films/include/func.php on line 2221

Warning: fsockopen(): unable to connect to www.mysite.com::80 in /home/mysite/public_html/films/include/func.php on line 2221

Did anyone get this working in 4.x? Seems like a great time saving mod.
