Just updated 2 files from 3.3. The sql file and include/module/family_products.php so you should not get any sql error or a 1064 errors. I have include html install file. This is still the full package

Family Products is a module that allows a shop owner to create "families" of products to display in there shop. This module is only available to the customer on the product_info,php page. To give you an example of why a module like this may be helpful, and to give an example of how it can be used, consider the example below:

Let's say you sell game consoles on your site...things like Playstation or X-Box. Well, you would probably want to show off certain products that would compliment your customer's purchase. For example, if they are looking at the Playstation 2 product_info.php page, you can create a family called "Playstation 2 Accessories" that consists of games, controllers, remote controls, and other misc stuff. Then when the user sees the main product they want to buy, you are "reminding" them that they will probably want to look the the other available complimentary products.

It is called Family Products because the idea was you would assign products into a "family" and that family would be called whenever a product was called that belongs to a family. In the example above, games for the Playstation 2 would also show when a customer is looking at Playstation 2 controllers, or any other product found in that "family."

I hope this clears some things up. If there is anything else you would like to see added, please feel free to tell me.

Fixed all errors people were experiencing.

Also added the ability to set the header text = to the family name.

Included all files that need to be replaced, that way if you are working on a clean MX2 install you simply copy all of the files instead of having to edit them one by one.

Also included a files that explains what the mod is used for.

Hope you enjoy the changes.

Fixed some minor bugs. This file includes all needed files.

Family Products v3.0 is here. This has a lot more functionality, more features, and lots to look forward to.

Hope you guys enjoy it.

Made for Milestone 2.
