Cafe Press Store Add-On

[Creed]

This add-on will allow you to add all the items from any of your Cafe Press store's or multiples if you so choose. If you have multiple stores you are going to use, make sure you separate each store name with a comma.

This add-on works with Cafe Press basic store, as well as with premium stores.

One Template to add.
One file to upload.
One (optional) Template Edit.

See it in use here (http://www.hdclan.org/forums/shop.php)

I will support this add-on the best I can, its very simple so there shouldn't really be any questions. I did not write the script to include the items. The javascript was written by scanman20@hotmail.com. I just edited the script to work with vbulletin, and added and templates to make the modification to add this to your forums.

As always, click install if you use. I'll keep you updated if I change anything :)

[trackpads]

Nice! Will try it out!

[trackpads]

error 404: File not found


The document you requested is not found.



Thats what I get when I click on any item in your demo store. Hruh?

[Creed]

The link works fine for me, not sure what happened. Try again maybe?

[trackpads]

I see the prob, when you click an item the url becomes:

store.php?item=devisoft.2018248 instead of 'shop.php'

[Creed]

Sorry, I've updated it :)

[trackpads]

Sorry, I've updated it :)
Thanks!

[trackpads]

Rats, I have a premium store and it isnt working, please check this out if you get a min:

Here is the forum mod:

http://www.trackpads.com/forum/shop.php

Here is the actual store:

http://www.cafepress.com/trackpads

Any ideas?

[Creed]

Yeah, typo in the script I was sent...I just updated so please redownload the zip :( Sorry

[noppid]

This is a nice add in. Good Idea!

[Nordinho]

is there a way to remove the header?? for the rest it works like a charm ;)

[base]

you really should credit the original author of the hack. (assuming the original author has given you permission to release this at all).

Sure thing, in the CAFEPRESS template, just remove "$header" and its gone :)

[Creed]

Sure thing, the script is GNU and the the script was written by scanman20@hotmail.com. The php script retains the info from the original scripter who wrote the javascript, and now credit given on modifaction, sorry ;)

[Nordinho]

Sure thing, in the CAFEPRESS template, just remove "$header" and its gone :)

hmmm...actually meant the header image from the cafepress script, the logo from cafepress is the same as my main site logo, and doesn't look to good having them both...

I guess it has something to do with this line

echo "document.write('<div style=\"width:'+w+';height:'+h+';background:white url(http://zoom.cafepress.com/'+(z%10)+'/'+z+'_zoom.jpg) no-repeat center center;\"><img border=\"'+b+'\" class=\"imageborder\" src=\"http://www.cafepress.com/cp/img/'+(g?'zoom':'spacer')+'.gif\" width=\"'+w+'\" height=\"'+h+'\"></div>')";

bump please!! Thanks! :)

[Erwin]

bump please!! Thanks! :)
You need to change in your file the instances of store.php to shop.php

[Creed]

Not even that, just download the newest version, edit the store name and upload...should work like a charm.

[trackpads]

umm. no thats not my problem! I have a premium store that and my store fronts are coming up as options, not the items. Please follow the links and you will see exactly what I mean.

Thanks again,

-Jason

[trackpads]

heck with it :) I will just put one of the stores in it.

Thanks again,

-Jason

[Creed]

You should be able to put up all stores, didn't know that wasn't what it was supposed to be.

Odd, I put in one store name and it worked fine...I put in both and it shows a link to each store. Very odd. Unfortunately the way the script is written it will only work for multiple basic shops, while advanced shops it will display your main page if you use more than one. You can use the name of one advanced shop and it will show it just fine.

In your instance Trackpads, the was it would work you could only use trackpads/227432 or trackpads/227448. As if you were to use both, it will display only trackpads main shop page. I am in the process of contacting the original script writer to see if this can be changed to incorporate multiple advanced shops. I will keep everyone updated as I find anything out.

*PS* for removing the title/header images from each shop, I'm working on seeing if I can get that removed as well. Since someone earlier requested that.

[trackpads]

I tried that but here is all it does:

[pagekeeper]

cool, i think i'll be adding this thanks a lot !!

[Rastus]

when I click the shop link I get an empty page.

this is my site http://www.texas4x4.org

this is my store http://www.cafepress.com/getthegear

in the shop.php file where it states "'your_store_name' I entered "getthegear", I also tried it with the url. both just open a blank page http://www.texas4x4.org/shop.php?

[Rastus]

Well, I found my problem. when I created the template I entered the title in lower case :tired:

[Creed]

Cool, glad you got it working.

[JazzleBug]

Works like a charm. Thanks so much! :D

[Creed]

Works like a charm. Thanks so much! :D


You're very welcome! Glad you found it useful.

[glenvw]

I have text link under my NavBar template that normally are centered. As hard as I try to play with it, I cannot get it to allow me to center anything under the navbar template. Is there something in the file I upload that is not allowing it?

[mattyk72]

I must be retarded, what am I doing wrong, I can't get this to work

cafepress store http://www.cafepress.com/thewarpath

http://www.thewarpath.net/shop.php

I changed the store name like the instructions say, what's going wrong?

[Creed]

It doesn't look like you have the shop.php in your forums directory, it calls a template from the forums directory.

[mattyk72]

I don't have a forums directory, my forums are in my html directory

[Creed]

Oh, I see. It seems its not calling the CAFEPRESS template, have you created that template?

[mattyk72]

yes I created the template and it's named in uppercase too

[Creed]

mattyk72, check your private messages.

[TStaut]

Installed, works great, thanks!

[House_of_Crazed]

Question -

What and why is it making the page more stretched to the right beyond the scrollbar by about 10 / 20 pixels??

[Creed]

Wow, you're right...but it only seems to be happening in IE. I use Firefox so I didn't notice lol sorry. I'll check that out and see if I can't get that fixed :)

[Creed]

Fixed...well sort of. You can replace the CAFEPRESS template with the one provided in the attached text file Now, if you have custom header and footer templates this will remove those...as there is a problem with the $show['oldexplorer'] variable and this script. I'll work on that, but in the mean time you can use the attached template for immediate fix.

[Skaterscafe.com]

I followed the directions but the page is blank

http://www.skaterscafe.com/shop.php

[Creed]

Weird, I didn't do anything to affect the actual store...just the header and footer.

[House_of_Crazed]

That works, thanks, Creed

[Creed]

That works, thanks, Creed

Glad I could help!

I followed the directions but the page is blank

http://www.skaterscafe.com/shop.php

Are you referring to a clean install?

[Skaterscafe.com]

Yes I just installed it.

A question about the install I may not have clear.

It says in the instructions:
###################
Open shop.php replace:
###################

your_store_name with your store name :)

IS that to be worded exactly the same way as the Cafe store?

Also, right below the in the URL

$start = '<!-- Start Main Content -->';
$end = '<!-- End Content, Start Footer Include -->';
$stores = 'your_store_name '; //EDIT THIS VARIABLE TO BE A LIST OF YOUR STORES
$url = 'http://www.cafepress.com/';
$item = $_GET['item'];

Is that url to stay that way or is it to be the url of my Cafepress store?

[Creed]

$url = 'http://www.cafepress.com/'; should stay the same, however:

$stores = 'your_store_name '; //EDIT THIS VARIABLE TO BE A LIST OF YOUR STORES

should be change to your store name :)

[Skaterscafe.com]

Strange, I copied the stor ename from Cafepress just like it's listed and nothing shows up, just a blank page.

[Creed]

You did create a new template called

CAFEPRESS

right?

[Skaterscafe.com]

Well I figured it out....duh...

When it said the store name I added the name I gave the store, didn't realize it needed the name of the store that followed the cafepress.com url. It's working great now.

[Creed]

Great! Glad you got it working.

[flamyngo]

excellent mod thanks a lot!

[SuperGLS]

Thanks, easy and great hack.

[Harley D]

Fixed...well sort of. You can replace the CAFEPRESS template with the one provided in the attached text file Now, if you have custom header and footer templates this will remove those...as there is a problem with the $show['oldexplorer'] variable and this script. I'll work on that, but in the mean time you can use the attached template for immediate fix.

I HACKED at this until I found a fix.

using the IE fix TXT on post#44, find and replace this text <!-- logo -->
<a name="top"></a>
<table border="0" width="$stylevar[outertablewidth]" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" align="center">
<tr>
<td align="$stylevar[left]"><a href="$vboptions[forumhome].php?$session[sessionurl]"><img src="$stylevar[titleimage]" border="0" alt="$vboptions[bbtitle]" /></a></td>
<td align="$stylevar[right]">
&nbsp;
With the actual HEADER code from the same skin thats holds the CAFEPRESS template your editing.
as an example, I copied the portion of my HEADER template, and used it to replace the above code.


<!-- logo -->
<a name="top"></a>
<table width="100%" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td background="Bilder2/Unbenannt-1_02.gif" width="100%" /></td>
</tr>
</table>
<table width="100%" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td><center><img src="$vboptions[bburl]/Bilder2/Unbenannt-1_03.gif" width="99%" height="82" /></center></td>
</tr>
</table>
<table width="100%" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td><img src="$vboptions[bburl]/Bilder2/Unbenannt-1_14.gif" width="100%"></td>
</tr>
</table>
<table width="100%" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td><img src="$vboptions[bburl]/Bilder2/Unbenannt-1_15.gif"></td>
<td bgcolor="#FFFFFF" width="100%"></td>
<td><img src="$vboptions[bburl]/Bilder2/Unbenannt-1_17.gif"></td>
</tr>
</table>


Its actually everything in the HEADER template ABOVE the
"<!--
NEW HEADER &amp; NAVBAR" statement.

Now remember, You will have to edit each CAFEPRESS template with each skins HEADER template accordingly.

Works great for me! I hope it helps everyone else.

[Harley D]

Now to add your custom footer.

Using the same txt file in post#44, that you have edited per instructions in the above post.

Remove this

<br />
<div class="smallfont" align="center">$vbphrase[all_times_are_gmt_x_time_now_is_y]</div>
<br />


And REPLACE everything below this

</td></tr></table>
<else />
</div>
</div>
</div>


With your FOOTER template code for that skin.

This worked on at least 5 different custom templates, with no problems.

I'm no coder, Just keep that in mind.


Use at you own risk!! Make backups!! :lick:

[YLP1]

This should work for me but it isn't.

My storeid is YourLincolnPark.com
My url to the store is: http://www.cafepress.com/yourlincolnpark

I have tried both in the script but I keep getting a blank page.

Any help is appreciated in getting this to work.

[Creed]

You need to make sure you replace "yourstorename" with "yourlincolnpark" as it appears at the end of the cafe press url.

[michael5472]

Thanks for the Hack but i have updated your install instructions to what i have done as it makes it soooo much easier to install for newbies :)

I hope this is ok :nervous:

[CrazyLady]

Nope, all I get is the header and footer... no store in between.

shop.php file has been modified with my store name
CAFEPRESS template has been added

.. and still nothin... :ermm:

[michael5472]

What instructions did you use ?

[CrazyLady]

I tried both

[michael5472]

email me your store.php

michael5472 @ blueyonder.co.uk

[CrazyLady]

ok, I opened a test shop with ONE item, and the page loaded with the item, great! Now I adjusted the shop.php back with my regular cafe press shop, which has 29 items so far, and nothing showed between the header and footer. Could the amount of items not be compatible with your mod? Could the fact that my store was created a long time ago have anything to do with it? thanx

[YLP1]

I am having the exact same issue as Crazylady....I am running version 3.0.7

Here is the url to my store page within VB:http://www.yourlincolnpark.com/lpsforum/shop.php?

[Big Kahuna]

Installed -- and it works great (Clicking Installed)

I have multiple stores -- can it append two of the stores on one screen -- and if so how.

Thanx for a great hack

Just check some stuff on my store,
this was working July 11, but sometime after july 11th it stopped working. So cafepress made some changes after that date, and broke this script again..

ok I got it to work..
Even though install says it's for a "Basic Store", mine is "Premium Store".
I just changed every instance of cafeshop to cafepress in the above code I posted..
..
Working today, may not work 2morrow. Who knows with the script

Cafepress changed their code again so that it makes it harder to load your store off site.

There was some code changes made couple months ago to fix cafepress. Now it looks like they changed the code again so that it does not load your page offsite.


yea yea, former phpbb user for over 5 years :) just changed to vb about a week ago-
Just be aware that cafepress changes their code on thier pages to that you'll have to re-do this mod every couple months-
(at least they were changing it every couple months in 2003/2004)

[Acedeal]

Items should not have an affect on this-
we had over 300 items at 1 time using this same code on phpbb.


YLP1 I am having the exact same issue as Crazylady....I am running version 3.0.7

Here is the url to my store page within VB:http://www.yourlincolnpark.com/lpsforum/shop.php?


did you get this fixed?
i put your store name in my shop.php and works great
http://www.dow-gamers.net/vb/shop.php

your shop.php should look like this

$start = '<!-- Start Main Content -->';
$end = '<!-- End Content, Start Footer Include -->';
$stores = 'yourlincolnpark'; //EDIT THIS VARIABLE TO BE A LIST OF YOUR STORES
$url = 'http://www.cafepress.com/';
$item = $_GET['item'];

worked both in IE in Firefox, so it's something you did not copy and paste on the install

[Acedeal]

Installed -- and it works great (Clicking Installed)

I have multiple stores -- can it append two of the stores on one screen -- and if so how.

Thanx for a great hack

BK

yes

edit this line in your shop.php

$stores = 'yourlincolnpark,dow_gamers'; //EDIT THIS VARIABLE TO BE A LIST OF YOUR STORES

add as many stores are you want, just sepperate with ,

look here and you'll see images from both stores
http://www.dow-gamers.net/vb/shop.php
one from that linkpark place and one from my site-

Just FYI,
the first name that you put on the above line is what's going to display on your pages ie
$stores = 'yourlincolnpark,dow_gamers'; will pull all the main info from yourlincolnpark and fill out your template with that.

Like many others, I followed the instructions perfectly (both the original ones and the updated ones on page 5 of this thread) but the page still comes up blank. Is anyone still supporting this?

[Ninth Dimension]

Like many others, I followed the instructions perfectly (both the original ones and the updated ones on page 5 of this thread) but the page still comes up blank. Is anyone still supporting this?I had this problem, it's because I had called the template 'cafepress' not 'CAFEPRESS' - edit the template name and it should work for you (not sure what the instructions on page 5 say, going to look now).

Thanks for the info man, but alas that was not the problem. Looks like I'm calling the proper template to begin with so it's got to be something else. This is really becoming a bit frustrating. LOL
