Good Morning.

I have a slight problem with the Options And Attributes.

Unfortunately i cannot get them to include.

The attributes Will not save and the option + button will not add them.
No errors appear.

Can anyone help? am I doing something wrong?

Thank you.

In which browser?

i've tried in internet explorer, firefox and chrome.

When did you install this?

3 days ago. thanks

i think i replied to you already by mail. you type the name of the global attribute or option. set up your global attributes and options.

i'm going to add some help instructions in the admin for this.

Hi Daniel, i haven't had any PM's from you regarding this situation.

there are options and attributes set up in the Catalog>options and Catalog>Attributes>attributes sections but when entering a product and i start to type the option/attribute name no drop down box appears?

any ideas?

thank you

Download the 1.5.1 again, I had issues myself but with the latest 1.5.1 download it was OK.

Finally got it working.

Even Daniel said hes never seen this before. i think the culprate may of been a bad internet connection at work when i was uploading a caused some files to corrupt.

This forum is amazingly helpful.

Thank you very much

Thanks, but not everyone will say the same thing

I just spend an hour figuring this out...not sure why is so complicated to add attributes

Its not, so either you are doing something wrong or something is wrong with your install.

FWIW - I had this problem and discovered it was because php's mbstring extension wasn't enabled on my server.

<b>Fatal error</b>: Call to undefined function mb_strtolower() in <b>XXXXX/admin/model/catalog/attribute.php</b> on line <b>39</b><br />

As a result the ajax calls that drive these functions were bombing out. A little strange that there wasn't a warning about this in the installer or elsewhere, but an easy enough fix.

So that's one thing to double-check if experiencing this problem.

it was fixed in 1.5.1

Looking at my downloads 1.5.1 and 1.5.1.1 mb_strtolower has crept back in Daniel.

Only checked catalog/model/catalog/product.php

Oh I like guessing acronyms.

Hmmm, lets see... FFS = For Fucks Sake???

I had to speak to my host to get mbstring enabled. It worked so thanks.

people will have to wait until i have finished the order editor before i can get a new release done with the fixes in.

I get the same problem in latest OC (installed a couple days ago) - Products->Option box does nothing and does not allow me to add options. (I have a "Size" option set up in Catalog->Options.) The autocomplete box does nothing and clicking on the green circle button does nothing.

I ran a test to see if I could call mb_strtolower() and it is working fine on my server, so the issue would not appear to have anything to do with that function.

Any ideas how I can debug this?

Thanks,
David
