I have just installed ezUpsell, and now when I tried it I have a few questions...

First of all, I don't find any place in my admin where I can change settings for the add-on. Is that the way it is?

Second, is there a way to "turn off" the text that shows up automatically on the arrows "continue" and "checkout"? They are a quite a bit off center, and I would prefer to have my own text on the buttons with my preferred font.

Third, it doesn't say anything at all that "this product has been added to your cart", it just has the name of the product. It would make me as a customer go "huh?", if I saw that page and didn't know what it was for.

I am attaching an image of what it looks like when a product has been added to cart. You can see both "my text" in century gothic on the buttons, and then also the text that shows up automatically that is not centered.

I would appreciate any and all help!
Thanks so much!

1. Find your original /skin1/modules/ezUpsell/ezupsell.tpl

you probably deleted some template code from this file.

2. To lose the text and only use your image for the continue/checkout now buttons -- in the template, find the <a href for the continue and go to cart...

But looking at the original source from years ago -- there is a MUCH better way to do this -- and if you have your own image in there, you're already 99% there...

This is the source from my very old original version -- you will want to edit this:

<td width="195" height="43" background="{$ImagesDir}/ez_continueshopping.gif" valign="bottom">
        <center><br><a href="home.php?cat={$product_info.categoryid}&page={$page}"><font color="#FFFFFF" size=2><b>{$lng.lbl_continue|upper}</b></font></a></center></td>
      <td width="216" height="43" background="{$ImagesDir}/ez_checkout.gif" valign="bottom">
        <center><br><a href="cart.php"><font color="#FFFFFF" size=2><b>{$lng.lbl_checkout|upper}</b></font></a></center></td>

ALL YOU NEED are the links and the images... get rid of the default background image, then...

<a href="home.php?cat={$product_info.categoryid}&page={$page}"><img src="{$ImagesDir}/your_keep-shopping_image.gif" alt="continue shopping" width="165" height="140" border="0" /></a>

and

<a href="cart.php"><img src="{$ImagesDir}/your_go-to-cart_image.gif" alt="checkout now" width="165" height="140" border="0" /></a>

Helpful?

Very helpful! Thank you! I got my problem 2 to work (my own images, no added text, for arrows). Thank you so much!

But for problem 1: I haven't even opened the ezupsell.tpl file, I just extracted the files I got and put it in the skin1/modules/ezupsell folder. Hmm... I must have missed something, but I have re-traced my steps 5 times already (and it really isn't a very tricky installation, so I'm sure I will feel stupid when I figure out what's wrong).

The fact that the "You have added" and then "to your shopping cart" is missing on either sides of the product name (see image), what is that symptomatic of?

[annasoaps]

I saw it myself now in the ezupsell.tpl. The language labels must be missing, since there is no text. They were supposed to be added with the patch that was included with the kit, but I can't see them when I look for them in the language section in admin.

Can I add them manually perhaps? I tried to make a new entry, as a label, and called it you_have_added and also lbl_you_have_added, but neither worked. And in the file it calls for this $lng.lbl_you_have_added

Am I on the right track?

You are on the right track, but why not ask WebsiteCM support for a replacement installation file... it will be a LOT less work.

It also appears that the top of your template is missing content.

PM me and I'll show you how I modified my version.

Good plan! Why make it more complicated?
I have contacted BCS now (that's where I got it).

Thanks for all your help! It is very much appreciated!
