This has nothing to do with VQMod Manager. Your XML doesn't follow standards which the simplexml_load_file PHP function is reporting (that other load methods are more forgiving of errors doesn't matter). This practically never happens with released commercial mods because most devs follow XML standards and check their work. I'll update VQMod Manager to handle the error more gracefully but if you don't want to fix it don't blame others for your issue.

I'll agree Banner Language's code is all but perfect.
The mentioned comment is terminated somewhere else in the code (I code "around" the original code as much as possible)
I'll have to re-check the code, and remove (some of) the comments.
However, as I mentioned, when not using vQMod Manager, I have not heard of any problems.
Also you suggesting I don't check my work is ridiculous.
I just don't use vQMod Manager, and didn't run in to the OP's problem.

Just delete the xml file manually (or rename, what you want), and see what happens.
Hi,
I've deleted the xml file, cleared the vqcache file and the problem was still there. I've reinstalled it back hoping it could fix, but nothing. Problem is still there.
I really appreciate your help as I'm unable to launch the shop before I can fix this problem.
My best regards,

Wow..... I've just deleted all the comments in the top inside the xml file and all is working now.
This is a very good extension. Not sure about technical details

Hello.
I have installed the vqmod extension and have two languages.
Yesterday I decided to add a new banner.
For that I go to
System > Design > Banners
and I has getting this error has a other user sent a while back.

I decided to delete all banners and re-add them all.
After I deleted then via:
System > Design > Banners pressing the delete button a now get this error:
Notice: Error: Duplicate column name 'language_id'
Error No: 1060
ALTER TABLE banner_image ADD language_id int(11) NOT NULL, ADD title varchar(64) COLLATE utf8_bin NOT NULL, DROP PRIMARY KEY, ADD PRIMARY KEY (`banner_image_id`, `language_id`) in D:\IIS\opencart1541\system\database\mysql.php on line 49
Yestarday I also found you did update your module on the 15th, so I downloaded that new updated vqmod and tested it.
But still have the same problem.
If I uninstall (&uninstall=true) your module and then remove the xml file the error goes away.
Help is much appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi,
i'm using your module ( nice one , thnx ) and i have the following question.
eacht time i refresh my page i first see all of my banners under each other and then they 'merge' into the sliding-banner
( i think that's because they need to be 'cached' )
is it possible to 'preload' the images or something ? so the users won't see them all the time they refresh or reload the page ?
thnx !
mvg,
Ivo

Hi AvanOsch,
Thanks for making this available for free! I just have a bit of trouble getting it to work properly... I had to modify the .xml because of a small syntax error, by changing and adding the following in admin/view/template/design/banner_form.tpl:
It works partly now, but if you add multiple items in a banner, it is behaving oddly by deleting previously entered items on save... There are also buttons in places they shouldn't be (see screen), so I guess something is not quite right here yet.
Any help much appreciated! Donation awaits if you can fix this
Greetings,
Hugo

Hoi Albert,
Dat zou natuurlijk mooi zijn!
I've installed this on 1.5.3.1 and 1.5.4, both have the same problems...

If you don't want to wait Banners Plus has multi-language as one of its features. It's stable and has been out for 8 months now.

Yeah, I'm guessing these people know that...rph wrote:If you don't want to wait Banners Plus has multi-language as one of its features. It's stable and has been out for 8 months now.
They probably just don't want to pay 20 bucks
--EDIT--
By the way, you don't see me posting at your extension pages, going like:
"You should check out this Free extension of mine"...
(Or criticizing your work, as you did before)
