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)

Also, in the Cafe Press General Setting in the AdminCP you have to change the Store ID from CNDS to your shop name, in my case, elantraxdstuff. Right?

I don't know why I see something different. I went to your shop

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

The footer looks right, I click on a product, I get the product I clicked on.

Only thing I can think is that
a) you changed something between when I looked and you made your screenshots
b) cafe press changed something
c) you have a different style then the unregistered user

Does it still look and operate bad for you? I've tried both my FF3 and IE7 and I can't break it on your site.

Sorry about that, I'll put the shop name change in the instructions for my next release, thought it was specific in there.

I do alot of affiliate based programs, so can the 'buy now' button be changed from within to a link?and can extra buy now buttons be added to the same product? as i'd be offering the same product from a few different stores. and also, don't need the shopping cart or price tags, can these also be removed? thanks!

If the above can be done, this hack is just what i'm looking for.

I think some of it could be done. I can't remove the shopping cart as that is how cafe press does it's work. The person can't buy anything if they don't access the shopping cart.
