X-Cart forums

[minorgod]

I've added a bit to the customer/dowload.php file to track the number of successful downloads for each download key. First I added a number_downloads (tinyint,not null,default 0) field to my xcart_download_keys table. Then I modified my customer/downloads.php file to update the count after a file is successfully downloaded. The code below was already a heavily modified version of the customer/download.php page before I added the download counter code...the original version supplied with x-cart didn't work for me...note, that this is for xcart version 3.3.1, but might work with newer releases, you'll have to decide that for yourself.

minorgod,

good mod

have you built a module to be able to view these results in the orders area to see whether every order has been satisfied?

[minorgod]

No, I haven't been that motivated to do it. I've been building some x-cart admin tools that reside completely outside of x-cart so that in the future, when I upgrade x-cart, I don't have to customize the entire admin side of it in addition to the customer front-end. At worst I'll just have to change how a few of my own scripts interact with x-cart, but since I wrote them all, I know it will be easier than modding some of the x-cart code which is just plain difficult in some cases...like creating a custom login page. GRRRRRRR. I'm still working on that login problem which I will be posting example code for in the next hour or so. No progress, but I'm simplifying the code to be a generic gateway so you can quickly install and test on your server by just changing a few variables in a config file. It'll be ready shortly so hopefully you'll have time to take a look at it and see if you can see why it doesn't work right.
