YAK 1.6, with added WPMU goodness
YAK version 1.6 has just been released. There are mainly minor changes (a custom out-of-stock message, removing the link back to the project page, and minor restructure), apart from one fairly major enhancement — to support WordPress MU.
At the moment, I’d say this feature is “beta” quality. The full YAK test suite runs without problem, but I haven’t really spent a huge amount of time checking that there are no issues between multiple blogs. More testing is definitely recommended for anyone who decides to enable this on an MU install…
I’m commenting here since there is no post announcing v 1.70 and I certainly was not going to use it while the links in the plugins list problem was there (fixed in 1.6.1). Its a chewy plugin and means when I attempt to edit or create a post I run out of available memory.
I get the message “Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 67108864 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 32 bytes) in /home/content/s/a/a/saa05admin/html/news/wp-includes/post.php on line 3234″. Deactivating the plugin restores edit/creat functionality.
Also when I update the quantity it zaps it so the product appears in the cart with no title, quantity or value, updating it clears the cart. Also adding a second product to the cart zaps the first products entry. This is a problem that is still apparent from several versions ago.
Do you have other plugins enabled? Because I have automated tests that cover most usage scenarios, and not experiencing those problems.
I object to the “chewy” comment by the way…
I’ve got no plugins enabled on a test installation — here’s the memory footprint from wp-memory-usage:
* PHP Version : 5.2.9
* Memory limit : 32 MByte
* Memory usage : 10.87 MByte
I enable YAK only and here’s the memory footprint now:
* PHP Version : 5.2.9
* Memory limit : 32 MByte
* Memory usage : 12.75 MByte
2MB doesn’t seem chewy to me considering the complexity of providing shopping cart functionality.
Hello,
ever since I upgraded your plugin, when my customers check out to make their payments on PayPal, the total of their payment does not show up on the Paypal invoice. So, if I tried to log into Paypal, it would say please enter amount greater than zero. Also, for some odd reason, there’s an automatic amount of $20 for shipping even though from the wordpress panel, when I was editing the yak settings, I entered $30 as the default shipping value.
Any feedback you can give me on this would be much appreciated.
Have you installed any other plugins lately? I’ve tested on my own site and it seems to work fine. I put in $30 as the fixed shipping value, and that’s the amount that comes up in PayPal.
If I look at your site at the moment, it seems like you’re using a different cart… it’s also showing $20 shipping. Perhaps that’s related…
