Zip Code feature not working...(FIXED)

[ludachris]

So I've been over to ViperAlley to see how the zip code feature is supposed to work and I love it. I've upgraded one of my sites to 2.1 to take advantage of the feature and it doesn't work. I punch in my zip and hit Go only to have the page refresh with no change. The form still shows up, yet the URL string changed.

I tried upgrading a second site to see if it was something I did wrong in the upgrade. Same thing. I've checked some ads and found that the users did enter a zip code, so the data is in there. What should I check next?

Have you actually imported the zipcodes if you upgraded?

[ludachris]

Yeah I did. I actually cleared the zipdata table and reuploaded it and it worked fine. Seems like there was a problem with my installs. Strange.

I can see the zip code in the showcatagory distance ledger , but when you click on the product under "Distance From You" I get "No Zip Code".

I always flush the cache, remove all cookies and restart the browser for testing when testing and putting in new zip code information under various users.

This started to happening right after I upgraded from version 2.3 to 2.41.

I've truncated re-installed the zip-code.sql database like 4 times.

Sometimes zipcodes that start with 0 wont even go in. So I manually go into the sql to add it in. Is there something else I could do to fix this?

Thanks.

Your not going to get a distance if the product has no zipcode entered I can tell ya that however

Two bugs I see offhand are these

In showcat.php find this

Content visible to verified customers only.

change to this

Content visible to verified customers only.

In editproduct.php add the code in bold to the request line

Content visible to verified customers only.
