Hi ppl,
I have 3 questions:
1. I have set up a small cart box that shows on the catalog pages; nothing more than a box with the number of items in the cart and the total price. However, the real quantity of ordered items is not updated properly (the price is). It only seems to count the times I add-to-cart-and-confirm, regardless of the quantity I choose; the getcartitems function only increments by 1. The cart page shows the correct figure. But why not the cart summary?
2. I have products with components giving the client the choice to pick the size (the site will sell clothes). So I have a dummy product and a bunch of invisible related products which are associated via the permutations facility. When I add-to-cart a product and view the checkout page there are two entries: one for the dummy product and one for the component. How can I not show the first? or do I have to upgrade to a version of actinic that allows this (v 6 or 7; i use v5 and it's my client's) If I do upgrade, will the transition from 5 to whatever more recent version be seamless? Can catalog 5 be used to manage and monitor a site created with developper 7?
Has anybody tried modifying actinicorder.pm? Because it's where the cart table is set up (I did modify everything that had to do with the layout of the table) and where it deals with components.
the last Q is related to the previous: in the confirmation email sent to the customer (for now it's me, testing from a local server) it shows both the dummy product and the component PLUS a quantity figure for the first AND the latter. This will surely throw the customer in an abyss of confusion. How can I correct that?
Hope I was clear enuf
