UK Zen cart

Hi Peggy

congratulations you have been busy.

It can be done it's just a case of being brave and remembering to back up before doing anything.

The UK template module is basically split into two parts.  Files and MySQL.

If you just upload the UK template files into the correct template locations they will affect your work - not good.

You need to run them trough WinMerge using your files as the comparison.   As a rough guide - If it's a code type change, leave it be.  If it's text decide if you want to change it ...  Simple see!

The MySQL is not so easy to tell you about.

How conversant are you with adding MySQL code snippets into PHPMyadmin etc?

Aha -- I see said the blind man.

Yep but not to fear.

You can. It's not exactly what it was set up to do but you can work around it.

With the uploaded but unmodified carts - upload the files in to the correct over ride directories (you understand this bit ???).

Open up PHPmyadmin and import the MySQL file -  That SHOULD work.

Do you have access to PHPMyadmin or was that yet more gobbleDgook??? 

We'll get there - he says looking up hopefully

I tired the above and this is the error message I got

Error

SQL query: Documentation

# UK TEMPLATE MOD - v1.3.6a base |

# The following code takes the classic template box layout

);

MySQL said: Documentation
#1146 - Table '*********.layout_boxes' doesn't exist

I added the stars because that was my database name and I wasn't sure if that was a good thing to post freely?

Ok well I am really confused because one of my carts list all the counties in the shipping zones and the other lists countries...What did I do?....lol

Ok I will look forward to the email....

Not great

I decided to go back to the beginning but experiencing difficulties.

I am really appreciative of the zen cart forums but I do find that some posters seem to skirt around the obvious.
