I'd really like to get this working for amazon.co.uk

Has anyone any tips on how I can do this using this promising mod?

Thanks.

The next release will have support for choosing your locale. I'll get it out in another day or two.

In the mean time, I think what you can do is open amazon_store.php and amazon_store_detail.php, search for this:

http://webservices.amazon.com/onca/xml

and replace it with this:

http://ecs.amazonaws.co.uk/onca/xml

I haven't tested that, so I'm not positive it will work. But the docs say it should... Give it a try, let me know if that does it for you.

btw.

I really have no idea where that error would come from... this mod does not do anything with the database, that looks to me like something is wrong with your vBulletin itself.

I *think* that error means one of your tables is corrupted or crashed. Try doing a repair and see if that corrects it.

since you are aking for suggestions:

I like the idea of having more than one category to choose from, and also multiple search options, So, for example - you could have a navigation menu somewhere that lists all of the types of items, such as Books, DVDs, CDs, etc., and have a separate search term attached to each category. I also like the idea of having more than one search term for each category - for example - you could have 2 or 3 different settings for each category: Books could have "cat grooming" and "cat breeding" and then the results would be compiled in to one overall "Books" category. I know that this would require a lot of coding, but I can see it as being very helpful. As it stands now, if I want to search for the term "Cats" then it will bring back the Cats broadway cast recording, as well as books about cats, and movies with Cat in the title - I would like to narrow down those searches, but if I put "cat grooming" then it will ignore books about "cat breeding," etc.. I hope I made myself clear enough - sorry for the rambling explanation...

Even if you don't have the categories listed - I think the multiple search terms would bve really helpful - so you could enter "cat grooming" "cat breeding" "cat history" etc. and allow all of those search terms compile the results for the store. If I put all of those in at once: "cat grooming breeding history" it narrows down the searches too much, but having the three of them separate and then combined in to one overall search would be really helpful.

Yep, that fixed it. Thanks! Installs.

I installed it, but its not doing what I want.

I want it to only display HDDVD and BluRay Movies only.

Its there any way to make it search for two keywords?

Also any way to add a Amazon Search Box which is tied to my associate ID?

Mine's working good, except there is "Page 1 of 5365". How can I split this up better?

@scottct1 - The next version will allow you to do multiple searches, and they'll be a search box so your users can type in anything they want.

@Kihon - what would you prefer? Also, I had a look at your site, check to make sure your Associate Tag is entered correctly, your links don't look quite right.

Where would you like to see the search box? Right now I've got it up on top of the page, I'm not sure if I'm happy with it there.

Also, would you like your users to a) only search the search index you've selected or b) select the search index to search through?

Version B4 is now available.

In this version, I've added results caching, cleaned up the templates, added additional search options and added support for locales.

There are many more options in the ACP, so if you upgrade please immediately go to the ACP and check to make sure that you've got your settings correct.

Also - VERY IMPORTANT - you'll need to create a "cache" directory for the cached results to be stored in. Make sure this directory is chmod'd to 777! Read the included text file for more information.
