just plugged in an older version of imagrotator.swf that I had downloaded a year or so ago. Works perfect.

Just did EXACTLY the same thing!! Snagged it from a client’s site I did last year.. Tried to ignore the watermark, and though it wasn’t bad I felt it cheapened the slide show I was working on just a little..

Dashboard tip that michelalexander posted is the RIGHT way to go..

Reason: Creating new thread.. My issue seems “slightly” different, though related.

Indeed my friend.. Indeed.. Thanks for your help.. Really.. You gave me a nudge in the right direction.. ??

Aren’t you a doll to help!! The 1st result in the Google search ran into the EXACT same issue I am having.. (https://www.cre8asiteforums.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=54223&mode=linearplus)

So on a whim, I took a look at the WordPress on Zen module (which I am NOT using for MANY reasons) to see if I could get a clue how Hira linked Zen Cart to WordPress, and there was the answer..

So this is what I changed my sidebox code to:

require_once(‘wordpress/wp-config.php’);

And I’ll be darned if it didn’t all start working!!!! Still testing, but I do believe that I may have hit upon the answer..

Clayton.. I believe you are on the right track.. Though the absolute path should look something like this:
require(‘/home/yoursite/html_public/wordpress/wp-blog-header.php’);

Can you post the links to the two similar Zen Cart/WordPress errors you found.. I think the issue may be as simple as this is pointing the wrong thing in the WordPress directory..

Out of curiosity, are you working on a similar WordPress/Zen Cart integration???

Clayton my man, are you psychic??? hahahahha..

Okay here’s the deal.. Not a full integration.. Just sideboxes to show content.. I have created some Zen Cart sideboxes that display Word Press content.. They work great until you try to do a sales transaction.. on the checkout page, the error I cited above displays in place of the sidebox.

Also I made a typo in my original post (mxing apples and oranges.. LOL).. Here’s the code inside my sidebox:

require_once(‘wordpress/wp-blog-header.php’);

Hey there.. Thanks for the response.. I decided to go a different direction altogether with the site.. (Zen Cart versus WordPress) I may do some more testing with this plugin later as I would like to use this on other client sites.. When I do I will post over the error info as you suggest..

If you have access to phpmyadmin or similar you can make a quick change now – change the varchar size for item_id in the wp_eshop_order_items table from 30 to 255

They show in the customers cart when the customer checks out, but on the admin page (WP Admin>EShop>Orders) the options chosen by the customer do not display.. Looking at it again this morning, it appears that part of the “Item or Unit Data” data is truncated on the order admin side.. I’ve included screen shots of both the admin order view, and what the customer sees after adding product to the shopping cart..

You have to swap the “Links” widget for the “My Links Order” widget. Once you do that, all will be right in the world.. I agree with another poster that this should be more apparent in the install instructions..

Apparently the plugin author forgot to include a pretty salient point in his install instructions.. You have to swap the “Links” widget for the “My Links Order” widget.
