Integration with vBulletin - Cafe Press

At this time this mod is not functioning correctly. Cafepress has redone their free site template and it will take a rewrite of this mod to get it to work again. Not extremely difficult, just time consuming. Unfortunately, 2 jobs, a sick kid and commercial work leaves free time few and far between nowadays. I will try and work on it when I can. If any other coder out there is interested they are free to take what I have and run with it, just like Creed posted on his original code.


This is a reworked version of the abandoned Cafe Press mod done by 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.

Two files to upload.
One (optional) Template Edit.

Basic Store Demo

Basic Store Single Item Demo

If you have at least 2.0.3 installed then only change needed is to replace the shop.php file. You do not need to reimport the product.

PREMIUM OWNERS PLEASE READ!!
I will not be able to officially support the shops of premium owners. The main problem is that there is no standardization on the templates available to premium users, especially in the css and notes markup which is what I count on for the script, and it's unrealistic to try and code for each one. The shop works for premium shops with the default template and no css added. A lot of the templates mess up the formatting.

I will help with what I can but there is only so much I can do.
When asking for help please include the following:
path to your shop.php file
store id
template used (if possible)

Yes I have a premium shop, and like I said, it is working fine. So maybe that's it.

[chatzworld]

im the same my shop dont show and same on the person who made it's site

[Phaedrus]

This is not so good... I guess I'll have to just go back to sending them to CafePress directly rather than getting them to stay on my site.

im pretty sure that is the problem. Looks like Dylan might have to re-work the mod if he is up for it. Otherwise its back to linking to them directly

[ArchangelX]

Sucks...anyone know how to pull the files so we can change it then, if the author is unable to?

I just installed this about two weeks before it went online.

[Dylanblitz]

Yeah, cafepress majorly changed their code. I'm going to have to rework it to get it in sync with what they're using now.
Like nascartr said, it's not your vb version, this code barely touches vb, so most vb changes wouldn't effect it. It was just the code change on the cafe press side.

[ArnyVee]

At least we know what's happening. And Dylan, any ETA on when this will be reworked?

Thanks for the original mod and I hope we can get this working with the new CafePress changes. Keep us posted!
