Integration with vBulletin - Cafe Press reloaded

Good morning everyone!

*** Second premium shops fix provided ***

*** New cafepress template fix for product detail page and jCarousel ***

*** Premium shops fix provided ***

*** Product details page is now fully functional AND enhanced ***

IMPORTANT: If you have a premium shop and the v2.0.8 add-on is working without problems, please backup your installation before upgrading to v2.5.

Post more info about your forum [URL, php version, type of shop/templates] - when encountering an issue.

This version has been updated for basic/free shops which stopped working since Jul 2008. It should work for both basic/free shops as well as premium shops with the default template.

===

This is a reworked version of the abandoned Cafe Press mod done by Creed and Dylanblitz:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=182424

The original text for the mod follows:

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

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

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

Install/update instructions for v2.5

Step 1. Overwite the shop.php file with the one from the archive
Step 2. Enjoy!

Install/update instructions for v2.3

Step 1. Install Cafe Press v2.0.3 or higher [if you don't have it already installed]
Step 2. Replace shop.php with the one from v2.3
Step 3. Copy the contents of the /clientscript/ folder from the /upload folder into your forums' root [clientscript] directory, overwriting the existing files.
Step 4. Enjoy!

[the basic/free shop should be working now - and see the [Notes] section below for limitations/more information]

NOTES:

- if you have at least v2.0.3 installed then the only change needed is to replace the shop.php file and the cafe_press folder. You do not need to reimport the product.

- this new release fixes the issue with new templates on cafepress.com for the basic/free stores.

Known issues:

- version 2.5 only contains the files shop.php and /clientscript/cafe_press folder. It is NOT a full product install and requires you to have cafepress mod v2.0.3 or higher installed already.

- no other issues so far ; )

Let me know if you have any questions or encounter any problems with it.. thanks!


Cheers,
aproape

The install instructions say to delete the CSS file in the clientscript folder, but I notice there is no replacement CSS file, which is why Arny's store was displaying vertical. Will you be coming up with a new CSS, and if so, will you keep it bare bones so we don't have to do too much editing of the file if we have a darker style?

I installed this today and found it only supports a single basic store, while the old version (despite its flaws) used to display the merchandise from all the stores listed in the control panel options. If you try to add more than one store, the header and footer of the page load, but none of the merchandise.

I don't think it's the modification. CafePress doesn't seem to be allowing comma seperated stores anymore: www.cafepress.com/bkss,cogonline.

EDIT: Yeah, you cant string your stores anymore: http://forums.cafepress.com/eve/foru...8062#803108062

aproape, on the old mod I used to be able to go in and edit the store ID within the PHP file. That way I could just change the name of the PHP file and references to it and have multiple shops with different names. Is that still possible by editing the reference to the shop ID?

 
$stores = $vbulletin->options['cafepress store'];

EDIT: I should really just try stuff before posting. Yes, this seems to work. I just replaced the entire $vbulletin variable with my Store ID and it seems to work just fine. Now, is there anything in the file I might be overlooking? I only changed 9 instances of "shop" to "store" and it seems to work, but I'm noticing some color issues which I've assumed are CSS related.

I guess that's CafePress' way of encouraging us to spring for a Premium shop. Maybe I'll go the multiple copies route as Digital Jedi suggested and just make a page to link to them all...

This is not finished yet, but this is the way I'm going. Now, I notice the CSS stops working after I edit the PHP file, but hopefully that will be fixed soon.

We took a quick look at your shop.. and found

http://www.waltdisneyboards.com/clie...cafe_press.css

This file was supposed to be removed - and replaced by /clientscript//cafe_press/cafe_press.css

Did you add it after or.. ?

Please let us know - thanks!

I think this is where I made a similar mistake. I read step 3 and deleted the file I just uploaded.

Step 3. Delete the file [foorum_root]/clientscript/cafe_press.css (if the file exists)

If I alter the PHP any, will I need to change anything to make sure it still points to that file? I'm still not getting any formating.
