Most importantly, this version eliminates the "Fatal Error: Cannot redeclare dfr_get_params()" error.

• added the option to show all sub-categories for category widget
• added the option to rename all 'datafeedr' folders
• fixed drip bug related to the same product in multiple categories
• fixed fatal error cannot redeclare
• renamed 'store options' link to 'store options'
• added the option to set the currency symbol for the price
• added pepperjam affiliate ID spot
• added updater code to correct any network IDs
• allow user to set if a link to a merchant's site opens in a new window or same window

It's highly recommended that you upgrade to this newest version.

Can you please provide instructions on how to upgrade to the newest version?
Also, how do you do a backup?

Here are the instructions: http://www.datafeedr.com/members/upgrade.php
They can also be found in the readme file of the plugin.
Also, you can watch the 'Upgrade' video in the factory.

The best way is to use cPanel for backing up all your files and database.

Hi Eric,

Before I start again I would like to find out what I did wrong in this upgrade. I had no problems last time.

It seems I have created a second store on top of the first one eg
http://www.campingus.com/store-2/pro...96811-9766-ss/

Can you please suggest what I did wrong before I start again please. I did follow the instructions, I thought!

Cheers,

Roy

For some reason, your store slug is 'store-2'. It looks like you tried to create a page named 'store' when there already was a page named 'store'.

I would suggest deleting all of the WP pages named 'store', then create a new page named 'store' or 'shop' or whatever you want.

After you create that page, go to Datafeedr > Store Options and choose the page that you just created from the 'Update Store's Page' drop down menu.

Hi Eric ...

You need to create some automation on this upgrade process

Perhaps .. something like the "instantupgrade" plugin companion, that deactivates the plugin, deletes the old folders, copies in the new folders, checks permissions, reactivates the plugin, etc etc and voila!

Maybe a notice that recognizes the current version installed and the latest version available?

I've got about 14 stores but, just in case you upgrade versions again, I will wait to upgrade at this time - I'm still updating all my feeds and reorganizing the product selections since the pepperjam. (I'm slow and behind at this) So if you can come up with a plugin that can help me upgrade faster nudge,nudge!

[Eric]

Hey Hart,

I know and I'm working on it. I've started development of 2.0 and it seriously simplifies installing, upgrading and notices. Plus a lot of other goodies.

The bad news is, there's no ETA on version 2.0 yet and I don't want to commit to features at this point as it's too early to say what will be included. But V2.0 is my main focus now.

Thanks Eric. Yes, there were two stores. I have done as suggested but the drop down list is showing no pages to select from.

Are you running the Thesis theme?

[meonit]

No I'm not

[Eric]

This problem is either related to a corrupted upload of files or another plugin or theme which is poorly written.

Can you de-activate datafeedr, re-upload all of the files and then reactivate datafeedr?

If that doesn't fix the issue, can you try disabling your other plugins one at a time until the problem disappears. And then let me know which plugin was the one that was creating the problems?

Also, what theme are you using?

Eric

[meonit]

I use gluttony theme since it was installed already
I disabled all other plugins and still get this error

Now I will uninstall everything and start all over from scratch

Hi Gunnar,

If the re-install doesn't work, please PM me your blog's ADMIN and FTP login details.

Thanks,

Eric
