Thank you again

No, there are no changes in the database, it would be enough to upgrade the module files with newer ones and clean the template cache.

Thanks Victor,

Got that all sorted out and it seems to load fine now in IE6 and 7. 1 more issue, when I click view all link from the bubble the list that appears includes all my site items, not just new things, and the order is not newest first. The whats new catagory has the new items in the beginning but also shows all the items loaded after the days set in the modules config file. Any suggestions ??

Thank you again

Victor still waiting to see if you can help me provide a category description for this addon. Tried what you posted but doesnt show.

mrerotic · #94 01-01-2010, 07:15 PM

Is there anyway to enable sort by so customer can choose sorting options? Also I''m still trying to get the category description to show up. Any ideas?

Thanks..

Hello Victor - I have this module working on my 4.23 upgrade sandbox. Excellent mod that compares favourably with other paid for mods!

I'm with mrerotic - if you can supply a tweak that would allow me to use a date held in an extra field instead of the add_date then I'd gladly contribute a payment for your time and trouble.

That is the main problem with any "whats new" mod, they all use add_date, and that changes every time you import anything.

This module is no longer distributed so I publish the latest version here.

Please check the very first post of this thread for details.

I installed this mod and it works well, and it's a heck of a lot better than manually adding new products to a "what's new" category which is what I was doing before!

I'm sorry to see it isn't being distributed anymore but I have to say I don't really understand how people manage to support free mods in the first place. It must take a lot of time and effort for little financial reward. (Unless I'm missing something?) Regardless, thanks for putting it out and posting it here.
