Background : I've been doing webdev for 8 years, OpenCart jobs for 4 years. I maintain 4 stores on OC, updating wasn't a priority till now. I'm starting to look at ways to update the extensions for these 4 websites.
I had no problem before with installing vqmod and vqmoderator for Opencart 1.x.
Right now, I've tried online, onsite (easyphp), with vqmod, vqmoderator, vqmod easy installer, and still can't access anything looking even remoteley as a menu or an admin page to manage xml modifications.
Am I supposed to code directly into the xml files like a peasant ?
Status : vqmod seems to be running, on the two tests websites (2200 and 2020 versions). There are files in the vqmod/vqcache folder.
On 2200 admin : I can see extension/vqmoderator in the User Groups/Administrator page, they're both checked.
On 2020 admin : nothing to see on the User Groups page
Both test websites : nothing showing in any admin menus
Both test websites : in the Extensions Menu / Modifications, I have :
"vQModerator The Wizard of Osch, for http://www.CrystalCopy .nl 1.0.6 Enabled 25/05/2016 "
but no way to access it
if I try to access directly :
website.com /2200/upload/admin/index.php?route=tool/vqmod&token=
I got a permission denied error.
What am I doing wrong ?
http://www.bigmax.ch/oc22/admin/index.p ... ger&token=
and it is this:
http://www.opencart.com/index.php?route ... n_id=19188
then:
IN:
Code: Select all
vqmm_menu_shortcut.xml
<id>VQMod Manager Menu Shortcut</id>
<file name="admin/controller/common/menu.php">
CHANGE THIS LINE:
$data['zone'] = $this->url->link('localisation/zone', 'token=' . $this->session->data['token'], 'SSL');
TO THIS:
$data['zone'] = $this->url->link('localisation/zone', 'token=' . $this->session->data['token'], true);

That did work, I now have access to module/vqmod_manager.
However, it's not vqmoderator, where can I edit the search/replace strings ?
EDIT : VqModerator is available at /admin/index.php?route=extension/vqmoderator&token=
It doesn't show any active modifications though :/
EDIT2 : What's the added value of vqmod_manager on vqmoderator ? Logging errors ?
EDIT 3 :
Did a fresh install, just with VqModerator.
VQModerator asks to install VQMOD, but make an error (Warning ftp mkdir etc) same as viewtopic.php?t=149656
the proposed fix does nothing but displays critical error when activated.
Tried installing this one
http://www.opencart.com/index.php?route ... n_id=19501
that just breaks the install (extension/modification page in critical error)
Will try another fresh install with VQMOd first, then VQModerator.
After that, I will try to find reasons not to switch to WooCommerce
managed to get vqmod + vqmoderator half working on a fresh 2200 install.
Tried to upload the smallest extension I could find
http://www.opencart.com/index.php?route ... load_id=44
uploaded through FTP
Doesn't show on
.../2200/upload/admin/index.php?route=extension/vqmoderator
nor on
.../2200/upload/admin/index.php?route=extension/modification
The
.../2200/upload/admin/index.php?route=extension/modification
page is not showing any modifications installed
Around 20 hours spent trying to get vqmoderator to work ... that's a first for me
into an YOURSITE/UPLOAD/... Sub, I just guess, that you somehow missed something anyway,
and now, you are just looking/uploading some stuff into the wrong places.
Since I downloaded the VqMod, you mentioned, uploaded the unzipped VqMod into the:
MYSITE/OC22/VqMod/XML/... Section, and there it is!
I cannot say more but Good Luck, you're gonna need it !
I already invested 6'000+ Hours, into OC, and still don't have a Clue...

PS: And the OcMod MODIFICATION Section has nothing to do with VqMod's anyway!

I'm not the only one encountering problems if I trust the comments ( http://www.opencart.com/index.php?route ... on_id=8247 )
For now, I'll be working with vqgen http://www.opencart.com/index.php?route ... on_id=4267 because I need an editor to properly update my 1.5.x extension to 2.x Opencart
Thanks for keeping with me IP_CAM , I know I sounded rude ... I have a love/hate relationship with OpenCart , since I think it could be the best ecommerce platform on the market for middle range sellers, but it keeps suffering from obvious shortcomings ... the causes of which I will not expand on.
but only you decided by yourselfs, to use the latest DEV-Version, nobody else told, or forced you to.I have a love/hate relationship with OpenCart
And if one want's to play Tester, it's sure nobody else's Problem.
Good Luck, no offense either !

It's shown on the main download page :
http://www.opencart.com/index.php?route ... d/download
as the latest version.
Didn't get it from a repository or somewhere exotic. How am I supposed to know it's not stable ?
Or simply by looking at the download package, and reading it's files, like the:
2.2.0.0-compiled\CHANGELOG_AUTO.md
2.2.0.0-compiled\changelog.md
2.2.0.0-compiled\tests\readme.md
e.t.c.!
then, you clearly see, that this is a Version, still under, constant, steady development.
Otherways, such a Package would NOT have so much DEV Stuff still in it.
OPENCART is an OPEN PROJECT, therefore, we ALL play our Role, as TESTERS and DEV's, in this FREE Software Game,
this should be clear to all, downloading an OpenCart, in the first place. Everything else is just a poor Man's Dream!

Random exemple :

main stable version is the main CTA
on the left, if you feel adventurous, you can access (after a few cautious steps) beta and nightly releases.
This is a Fact. But still nothing, anyone has any influence, it's in the Hands of the MasterThat's the sort of thing that most OS projects present better.

So, better, don't take it personal, it's not meant this way!
