Product Attributes Class problem

[fourmat]

Hi All,

I have oscMax RC2 loaded with the latest patch. Most things seem to be working fine, but I am having a problem with the product attributes. Whenever I activate a product attribute for an item, it returns the following error on the main shop product page:

Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: pad_multiple_dropdowns_otf in /insert directory here/catalog/templates/fallback/content/product_info.tpl.php on line 116

I checked to make sure that the classes were uploaded correctly and evertything seemed to be there. It seems to be within the new QT code, but I'm not familiar enough with it to know what its doing. Any Ideas?

In your admin, change the QT pro setup to use pad_multiple_dropdowns not pad_multiple_dropdowns_otf.

Configuration Product Information

Edit 'Product Attribute Display Plugin'

Select 'Multiple Dropdowns'

Unfortunately it does the exact same thing for any selection that I make. Whether it's base or radio, etc, which is why I wasn't sure what was going on. Is there a permissions thing that needs to happen with those classes?

Do you have the page cache on? If you do, you need to clear it out, as the cart will only grab the cached page and no changes will be reflected...

I don't have page caching turned on, but here might be another clue:

When the value is set to base, multiple_dropdowns, multiple_dropdowns_otf or sequenced_dropdown I get the error listed here:

Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: pad_multiple_dropdowns_otf in /insert directory here/catalog/templates/fallback/content/product_info.tpl.php on line 116

If I set it to single_dropdown or single_radioset, I get this error

Fatal error: Class pad_single_dropdown: Cannot inherit from undefined class pad_base in /insert directory here/catalog/includes/classes/pad_single_dropdown.php on line 52

Your problem is a bad path:

/insert directory here/

That surely is not a valid path! You need to edit your /includes/configure.php file and remove that portion and replace it with the correct server path...

[fourmat]

Um, that's not the actual path error that I get back. The path is correct.

I put that "insert path here" in there to keep the hackers at bay at least a little bit when posting to a forum....didn't want them to have to much information about the directory structure. The path is fine...I have just had some bad experiences here lately with the script kiddies.



(Just a little background: I have been working with OSC and Nuke for many years now and have installed numerous mods, modules, and my own custom hacks. I'm not a hard core programmer, but I know my way around the scripts a bit. Sometimes I get a little dense though and need a nudge (or slap) in the right direction. )
