Hello,
I'm posting this message because I hope to find some help.
I created a site using Opencart. I had managed to modify the files in order to modify the "add to cart" button to "
quote request" when the price of the item is 0.
However during the last update everything was erased. Do you know why this happened and how to prevent it from happening again?
Thank you in advance for your answers
OC version. More info.

Yes, definitely: this happened because your modification method was not compatible with the method you chose for updating. To prevent something like this happening again, use the recommended modification system (viewtopic.php?f=144&t=227710) and make sure to do regular backups, especially before updating. You could also set up a staging environment for testing purposes.enolia wrote: ↑Mon Mar 28, 2022 9:02 pmHello,

If you would like to receive more specific help, it would be necessary to include more information:
- What exactly you are trying to achieve - you covered this: change Add to Cart button text for zero priced items
- What you have already tried - the methods you have used to carry out the edits
- What you expected to happen - this is implied, I guess: that your edits would survive an update(?)
- What happened (A precise description + screenshots + error logs if possible) - How did you update your site? why? did you do a backup? etc...
- Any additional info you already know about the problem
- Any troubleshooting attempts you have already tried
Depending on the above info it might or might not be possible to recover your modifications. It might actually be easier to rewrite it from scratch. To make it future-proof, consider using the opencart Events System.
Thanks for your answer.
At the end, we need to find a way to change a button permanently, like I said before. The first time to change this button, I modify the information inside the core file (.php and .twig). It is my expectation that my changes will survive an update.
Unfortunately, there is no full backup. There is no error log, the changes just disappeared.

If price is 0.00 it will change add to cart button to GET QUOTE, it will REMOVE qty and tax and replace price also with get quote.
When you click the get quote button it will take you to the contact page with the product name and some text like please send me a quote for: and then product name. automatically filling the text area. Customer can send a request in 2 clicks. It works on PRODUCT PAGE with related products and also CATEGORY PAGES.
It can be expanded easily to all the others like best sellers, new products etc etc. If you want to try it let me know. As an 3xtension it will survive updates :-)
First image is a category product. Second the text from main product.

You can try this. Its an OCMod so after installing remember to refresh modifications.
If you think its any good for what you need feel free to use it.
I will make an extension/module based on events of the same shortly.
Because it has a few lines there is potential for conflict with other mods if you use a lot of them.
If you have any modifications that affect the product / category pages there is the potential for issues. If you encounter any just let me know.
Can easily be tweaked for specific need / text.

When looking at your OCMod Logs, what does it state about this OCMod installation?

So to add, I would suggest to use this extension: https://www.opencart.com/index.php?rout ... n_id=22014 since, in this scenario, you are asking forum supporters to provide a free extension while there are already extensions available on the Marketplace that delivers the need by Opencart Partners.
For the price being 0: https://www.opencart.com/index.php?rout ... n_id=22965 . This free extension is for earlier OC versions but can be easily converted. Please take the time to search the Marketplace.

Ok that clears that up :-)
What theme do you have installed.
What extensions do you have installed.
Second don't worry about it - I will make an extension based on events that will cure this problem of OCMods compatability which is what I think is happening here.
Apparently I have the basic theme. And I don't have any extension at this moment on Opencart.mikeinterserv wrote: ↑Tue Apr 05, 2022 12:54 amOk that clears that up :-)

As you well know events are not used in this XML OCMod This is an older mod.straightlight wrote: ↑Tue Apr 05, 2022 8:31 pmThen, yes; Event triggers should of been used originally.
Its been installed on all 3X versions without issue. So I don't know what the problem is with the OPs OC intall.
As I said I will make an installable version based off events.
Just do add my "2 cents" ..
The "problem" is this here:
because such a line does NOT exist in a default, standard template.
It should be instead:
