vandiike, more visual? I show you the exact code you need to put in and where to place it. Do you want a screenshot of the actual code? I do not follow... There really is nothing more to explain.

In tools.php, add this line:

 
tep_admin_files_boxes(FILENAME_PDF_CATALOGUE, BOX_TOOLS_PDF_CATALOGUE) .

anywhere in the array (like right below any of the other lines in the array), but before this line:

tep_admin_files_boxes(FILENAME_WHOS_ONLINE, BOX_TOOLS_WHOS_ONLINE));

The array is this:

                                   tep_admin_files_boxes(FILENAME_BACKUP, BOX_TOOLS_BACKUP) .
                                   tep_admin_files_boxes(FILENAME_BANNER_MANAGER, BOX_TOOLS_BANNER_MANAGER) . 
                                   tep_admin_files_boxes(FILENAME_CACHE, BOX_TOOLS_CACHE) .
                                   tep_admin_files_boxes(FILENAME_DEFINE_LANGUAGE, BOX_TOOLS_DEFINE_LANGUAGE) .
                                   tep_admin_files_boxes(FILENAME_FILE_MANAGER, BOX_TOOLS_FILE_MANAGER) .
                                   tep_admin_files_boxes(FILENAME_MAIL, BOX_TOOLS_MAIL) .
                                   tep_admin_files_boxes(FILENAME_NEWSLETTERS, BOX_TOOLS_NEWSLETTER_MANAGER) .
                                   tep_admin_files_boxes(FILENAME_SERVER_INFO, BOX_TOOLS_SERVER_INFO) .
                                   tep_admin_files_boxes(FILENAME_WHOS_ONLINE, BOX_TOOLS_WHOS_ONLINE));

with more visual I ment the 'computer logic' why the other code did not work.

Thanks for your mod. I think I got it from here....other wise you'll be hearing from me..

Cheers

in admin/includes/boxes/ tools.php

around line 38

tep_admin_files_boxes(FILENAME_BACKUP, BOX_TOOLS_BACKUP) .
tep_admin_files_boxes(FILENAME_BANNER_MANAGER, BOX_TOOLS_BANNER_MANAGER) .
tep_admin_files_boxes(FILENAME_CACHE, BOX_TOOLS_CACHE) .
tep_admin_files_boxes(FILENAME_DEFINE_LANGUAGE, BOX_TOOLS_DEFINE_LANGUAGE) .
tep_admin_files_boxes(FILENAME_FILE_MANAGER, BOX_TOOLS_FILE_MANAGER) .
tep_admin_files_boxes(FILENAME_MAIL, BOX_TOOLS_MAIL) .
tep_admin_files_boxes(FILENAME_NEWSLETTERS, BOX_TOOLS_NEWSLETTER_MANAGER) .
tep_admin_files_boxes(FILENAME_SERVER_INFO, BOX_TOOLS_SERVER_INFO) .
tep_admin_files_boxes(FILENAME_PDF_CATALOGUE, BOX_TOOLS_PDF_CATALOGUE) .
tep_admin_files_boxes(FILENAME_WHOS_ONLINE, BOX_TOOLS_WHOS_ONLINE));

I added the

tep_admin_files_boxes(FILENAME_PDF_CATALOGUE, BOX_TOOLS_PDF_CATALOGUE) .

The link does not appear nor does a error msg??

[vandiike]

and of course, since there is no file yet generated I get this...

Warning: filesize(): Stat failed for ./catalogues/catalog_1.pdf (errno=2 - No such file or directory) in /home/ofgnryef/public_html/catalog/pdf_catalogue_info.php on line 56

catalog/catalogues/catalog_1.pdf
a 404 ERROR :: FILE NOT FOUND

vandiike, the admin is permissions based, so the link will not appear until you activate it in the admin.

The other error, you have not set sufficient dir permissions to create the .pdf would be my guess.

Vandike,
I think you need to go into admin, then select files. From there you need to add this into your admin screen. I know that is the not the exact instructions. I had to do this with Recover Cart Sales mod that I installed recently. The links would not show up in Admin until I added it thru the files area while in admin.

Hope this gets you on the right track.

edit: whoops, just noted Michael replied just before I did.

Anyone reading this...

If you have trouble with the links in the admin mod. Don't forget to register the new link in the admin module.

Ps the installation instructions for the pdf_catalog 1.4 is really bad. Ds

If anyone has ever made it work with those instructions, d'you'de you are a star!
