What was changed since 1.0.6:

- Changed function linebreak_view() to view a real linebreaks which we tryes to find but not linebreakes from xml-file.
- Changed in check_conflicts.php findreplace and addcode which now if we can't find a string
delete whiespaces and linebreakes and research again. If can't find second time we print a message.
So we can resolve some conflicts automaticly!!!
Also changed tag_actoins for this feature can work.

- Added How_To_UpDate.txt, How_To_UnInstall.txt, How_To_Install.txt

- Removed *.jpg from Contrib Installer package (~150 kb)

- Removed Install instructions from readme.txt

Full package.

What was changed since 1.0.5:

- Fixed bug in permissions_check.php. When we del_file and need a write permission we print parent dir name of file.
Now we print a full file path (with filename).

- Added some strings from conflicts_check.php to language-file. Now they can be translated into another languages.

- Added a "Contrib Installer" link on Admin Area page (index.php)

- if we use
<findlinenumbers type="continued" />
<originallinenumbers type="continued" />
and on a conflicts check stage we have more than one search results we do not print a message and replace all of them.

- Fixed a bug that do not let to find strings when remove (in addcode and findreplace)

- When one CIP tryes to change file changed by another CIP we print a message HOW TO RESOVLE_CONFLICTS
- Conflicts message apears only if we can't find a string. If we can find it - we pass by.

- When file contains whitespaces at the end of lines - we could'n find a string if in xml-file we do not have a whitespace.
Now this problem resolved. we remove a whitespaces from file and from string that we find.
(function linebreak_fixing() - used ereg_replace instead of str_replace)

Full package.

What was changed since 1.0.3:

- From Contrib Installer removed (commented) Contribution_Control_Bookmark_MOD-0.1.4.
All files leaved in place but they don't used. In xml-file commented some code. I think this will resolve a problem
which reported on osc forum.

- Fixed bug with adding html-comments. Now you can do it in this way:
<add type="html">
<replace type="html"> - will use html-comments
<replace type="php">
<add type="php"> - php-comments

- Fixed Bug. FindReplace uses str_replace() which replaces all serach strings (not first one).
Now we print a message about it when conflicts Check (needed PHP 5.0.0).

- Removed Contrib Installer version from comments when insert a code into files.



- added some javascript code (from oscommerce.org) that helps to haide runtime messages when it's not nessesary.
This made in osc-site style. You can click on link and you will see all this messages but on default wedon't show them.

- added one more check to conflicts_check.php. When <addfile> we check if file exists in CIP folder.

- added a highlighting of installed contribs on Contrib Installer page in admin. They now in bold.

- All errors messages (placed in conflicts_check.php and tag_actions.php) now displaying a number of section in xml-file which have a problem.
So messages will be more helpful and useful.

- Fixed problem with linebreakes. Unix mashines loves "n" as a linebreak but windows - loves "rn".
So now we modify files to windows-style and also change a data from xml-file. They now can be compared correctly.

-Changed comments. We have problem when insert php-comments into html-code. Now this fixed.
As default we use php-comments.
When we found in <findreplace> or <addcode> parameter type="html" we use html-comments.
<findreplace type="html">
<addcode type="html">
If no type setted we use php-style for comments.

- Backup folder moved from contrib's folder to admin/backup/
Now user must make writeable this folder only once.
In future this backuped files may be easyly removed.


- When install contrib we now backup database into /admin/backups too. Gzip is used.

- function sql_xml_check($t_array, $action='') changed. Now we check <query> and <remove_query> when install and when remove.
Before we check only one tag so You could install but have no posibility to remove CIP.

This is full pacage. Stable.

1.0.3
- Bug fixes

- Added total BACKUP. Before make any changes to file Contrib Installer copy them to folder 'backup' under CIP-folder.
Example: admin/contributions/BTSv1.5d/backup/
So later you can easily restore files or resolve conflicts.

- Changed install.xml (selfinstall) to fix an error described in forum (page 6). This about SQL sintacs.

- Support of languages that differs from english. Usefull for language files.

- Added changelog.txt

1.0.2

- Correct changes (addcode and findreplace ) in languages-files (different
from english - like russian, ukrainian and etc.). XML-files should be in
original charset. (In xml_parser used 'UTF-8').

- Added Contribution_Control_Bookmark_MOD-0.1.4

- Contribution_Control_Bookmark_MOD-0.1.4 changed to use Contrib Installer to
delete contribs

- Fix a bug in addcode

- Fix a bug in addfile (files have not removed when uninstall)

- Changed conflicts check. Now check if needed file exist and is it file and
is it writeable. And also checks is it link for file.

- Fixed a bug when some CIP tryes to change the same file and find the same
strings.

- Added text on 'init' page which tells how to change permissions on Unix
(from readme.txt)

- Added new tag 'delfile'. When delete (install contrib) - CI just copy it
into contrib folder and than restore it when uninstall contrib.

- Added NEW way to resolve a conflicts for 'find and replace'. Replaced code
not deleted but just commented. So if another contrib tryes to find strings -
CI will find and will made a changes but they will be commented (in comment
area) so after install contrib will not work and you should repaire it by
hand. Note: you will see all changes in file with info about what contrib was
done it.

I've decided to separate the contribution install packages (cip) from the base Contrib Installer. Install packages will no longer be included on this page, but will rather be available for download from their respective original contribution pages. A list of packages that are compatible with the Contrib Installer will be available on the Contrib Installer announcement thread ( http://forums.oscommerce.com/index.php?showtopic=156668 )

This is a full base package without any other contributions included.

This is an install package for Article Manager 1.2b. To install, just unzip into your contributions directory, then install via the web admin interface.

This is an install package for Attibute Sets 5.5. To install, just unzip into your contributions directory, then install via the web admin interface.

This is an install package for Header Tags Controller 2.5.3. Please test thoroughly, since this package should be considered beta. To install, just unzip into your contributions directory.

This is an updated install package of Administration Access Level Accounts. Several bugs in the install package have been corrected, but nothing in the actual Administration Access Level Accounts contribution has changed. To install, just unzip into your contributions directory.

I have included the following contributions:

Administration Access Level Accounts 2.0 (version 2.1.1)
All Products Page (version 2.8)
osCommerce PayPal IPN Module v1.0 For 2.2MS2 (version 1.1)
Contribution Control & Bookmark MOD (version 0.1.4)
Image Check (version 1.2)

(This is the full package.)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
How to upgrade Contrib Installer from version 0.2
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

* STEP 1 * - Copy the catalog/admin/contrib_installer.php file to your osCommerce directory.

* STEP 2 * - Copy the contributions/ directory to your contributions directory (you can safely overwrite any files, as long as you haven't manually altered anything in the contributions directory.

* STEP 3 * - (OPTIONAL) Run these sql queries:
UPDATE installed_contributions SET last_update = '2005-07-22' WHERE contr_ref = '3286';

This release fixes several bugs. I have also included the following contributions:
Contribution Control & Bookmark MOD (version 0.1.4)
Image Check (version 1.2)

(This is the full package.)

Sorry, I forgot another file. I hope that this is the last time. Please disregard the previous package. (This is the full package.)

Sorry, forgot files in the last package. Please disregard the previous package. (This is the full package.)

Contrib Installer

Contrib Installer is an easy way to install contributions for osCommerce without manually editting files.

Installing a contribution with Contrib Installer requires a simple package which describes the contribution. I have included the Image Check contribution as an example. I am currently working on supporting other contributions (need help here!), so hopefully there will soon be Contrib Installer packages for many other contributions. If you want to help with making packages (it's very easy), that would be wonderful. For more info see the README.txt file in the package.

If you have any questions, comments, or problems, please post on the support thread:
