Hi Olimax,

Thank you for sharing this mod, it works great. Saves the trouble having to toggle back and forth.

[Lisaweb]

Looks like a great mod. I have just installed it, but nothing has changed.

[olimax]

check your vQmod logs and see if you get any errors

[hbg]

Hi, the error log was blank.

[olimax]

Odd
Maybe try clearing your vqmod cache

[hbg]

Hi, I just tried that. Strange. Maybe my VQMod isn't installed correctly. I had an issue recently, & it was re-installed.

[olimax]

check your vqmod logs

[hbg]

VQMod was zero. Obviously something was amiss.
I had some issues recently with the system menu tabs disappearing.

They came back again after I uploaded the admin folder (minus config.php).
Voila!

Edit your admin/index.php file
FIND:
// Startup
require_once(DIR_SYSTEM . 'startup.php');

// Application Classes
require_once(DIR_SYSTEM . 'library/currency.php');
require_once(DIR_SYSTEM . 'library/user.php'));
require_once(DIR_SYSTEM . 'library/weight.php');
require_once(DIR_SYSTEM . 'library/length.php');
REPLACE WITH:
// vQmod
require_once('../vqmod/vqmod.php');
$vqmod = new VQMod();

// VQMODDED Startup
require_once($vqmod->modCheck(DIR_SYSTEM . 'startup.php'));

// Application Classes
require_once($vqmod->modCheck(DIR_SYSTEM . 'library/currency.php'));
require_once($vqmod->modCheck(DIR_SYSTEM . 'library/user.php'));
require_once($vqmod->modCheck(DIR_SYSTEM . 'library/weight.php'));
require_once($vqmod->modCheck(DIR_SYSTEM . 'library/length.php'));
Load your store homepage and verify it works.

I hope this info helps someone else.

I was fiddling with it but had no luck. An option to select either Disabled or Enabled in Products would be handy.

Adds Product Low Stock Alerts list... Any other suggestions?

In my store, most items are unique and not very often do they have more than 1 available. What happens now is when I add products, they automatically show up in my "low stock alert list" on the dashboard. Funny, but not very useful. I'm sure I won't be the only one using unique products and was wondering if it would be easy to modify the code to show the 30 latest out of stock products? This would work with the same reasoning as low stock...if you see low stock you need to re-order. In my case if I see out of stock I would know which products sell and try to get more of that kind.

Would someone in the know be able to provide the code I need to change from "low stock" to "recently out of stock"?

Thanks for your time and for sharing!

[olimax]

I cant check it at the mo
but I think if you change this

Code: Select all

'filter_max_quantity'  => 3

to this

Code: Select all

'filter_max_quantity'  => 0

it should do what you are after

worth a go anyway

[MrTech]

Seems to have done the trick! Wow, if only all mods were this easy...

Thanks for your time!

Hi, anybody tried this with 1.5.2? Any issues?

Cheers,

Stu

[MrTech]

Yup! That's the version I'm on.

[saintlade]
