Re: Event system Opencart 4
Nevermind I finally managed to get it working with the after event: public function customExtension(string &$route, array &$data, mixed &$output) { // Load the controller as the $data array will always be empty if the controllers is called through an ajax call $this->load->controller('ch...

Re: Event system Opencart 4
Well, such makes no sense: class CustomExtension extends \Opencart\System\Engine\Controller { public function custom_extension(&$route, &$data) { $json['redirect'] = $this->url->link('checkout/checkout'); } } because you have "only" the $data array to "manipulate" .. Suc...

Re: Event system Opencart 4
I am upgrading one of my extensions to Opencart 4x but I am having trouble getting my code injected using the even system. Use OCMOD. General a bad advice. I know your agruments Paul, but doing such an easy task with a simple event cost a few minutes only. And OCMod is here not required. @Reptile s...

Re: Event system Opencart 4
But when checking the $data in my before or after method it is always an empty array. Is this maybe because the save method returns a JSON response? What do you mean with the $data ? Is it that array handed over from the call? Or what? Would help much if you could post your code here. Yes that is e...

Re: Updating extension without losing data?
I tried using the uninstall method but this won’t work. Even if I try to get all settings in the first line of the method I get an empty array. So the module settings are cleared before I can get them. So I added the logic of saving the settings in the Save method instead. And this works fine. Each ...

Re: Updating extension without losing data?
Hi Reptile, in your case the easiest way would be to write a couple of small functions in your plugin(s), called install() and uninstall(), they must be placed in the (admin) controller of your extension. Opencart calls them automatically when you install/uninstall your extension, you don't have to...

Re: Updating extension without losing data?
Unfortunately there is no built-in way in OpenCart 4 (that I know of) to upgrade an existing extension without loosing all its data. IMHO the current way OpenCart 4 implements the installation of extensions is poorly implemented. This is just one of many issues which need to be addressed. In genera...

Re: Updating extension without losing data?
Each versions are different, even by features. Forum rules. Ok 4.0.2.1 then :P Still, at this time, it has been suggested many times by forum supporters that OC v4.x releases not to use it until a stable version gets released. I understand that. But it is good to convert atleast one extension just ...

Re: Updating extension without losing data?
The OC version still hasn't been posted. By building an API, this can be accomplished. There are lots of extensions on the Marketplace that can accomplish update automations already. I would suggest to take a look. What do you mean by the oc version hasn’t been posted? I’m posting in the Opencart 4...

[SOLVED] Updating extension without losing data?
I just finished my first event driven extension and was wondering how I can update this if I release a new version? Normally with VQMod clients would simply overwrite the files and stored data wouldn’t be affected. But now the extension is installed through the extension installer and the only way t...

Re: What happened to the invoice styling?
Nevermind. Found the problem. In the order_invoice.twig Simply replace: <link href="{{ bootstrap_css }}" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" media="screen"/> With: <link href="{{ bootstrap_css }}" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet"/>

What happened to the invoice styling?

Re: Using event to change controller code
You won't see other variables than $data or $json in the event controllers. For that, you need to re-query it. Isn't it possible to use a second event trigger to modify the sale/order controller invoice method to insert the extra variables? Just like I would do with VQMod? I already tried it but I ...
