Title: Add to cart Button not working anymore
Post by: EIF on May 19, 2014, 18:51:03 PM
Since a few days my add to cart button isn't working anymore. When clicking on 'add to cart' there should be a pop-up saying the product is added to the cart. Now nothing happens... See for your self at: http://www.waterpijp-bong.nl

I did not make any file or setting changes. So it must be something at my hosting server.

I backed up my online website and restored it locally. And guess what: the button is working now, with same settings like fancybox, jquery, etc. The only difference is the PHP version. Locally I have 5.4.19 and my hosting provider 5.3.28. The strange thing is, that the version of my provider is 5.3 for a lot of months now. So how is it possible it doesnn't work now. It still seems to be a hosting issue. Can someone tell what PHP element this 'add to cart' button is needing? I need this get solved quickly.

Solved... I am using Rupostel One page.
Seems to be a Javascript Ajax issue... but it can be solved easy. Check here: http://www.rupostel.com/joomla/hacks/virtuemart-does-not-work-with-ajax-popup-when-adding-a-product
The only strange thing is issue occured suddenly...

If the response to the ajax add to cart call is "malformed"  i.e. perhaps an error reporting comes back with it (could tie in with php not being high enough version -- then the script fails

Rupostal's fix changes this behaviour which is why perhaps it works again - you can check the response  in the console tab of Firebug -

What also is strange that local the add-to-cart button just worked... only not online somehow.
But ok, it is fixed now and that's what counts ;-)

but you say that the php version is higher on your local.. a chance then that the error/notice etc wasn't triggered therefore didn't break the json response to the add to cart
