Hook : ShoppingCartValidateProductUpdate not working ?

[Fr3DBr 0]

I made a hooks.php file in my provisioning module directory :

 

function hook_xxx_ShoppingCartValidateProductUpdate($vars) {

ob_start();

print_r($vars);

ob_end_clean();

}

 

add_hook("ShoppingCartValidateProductUpdate",1,"hook_xxx_ShoppingCartValidateProductUpdate");

 

But when I add a product to the cart, I don't see anything, what can be wrong ?

first you type wrong function name here:

add_hook("ShoppingCartValidateProductUpdate",1,"ho ok_xxx_ShoppingCartValidateProductUpdate");

 

see ho ok_

also the hook action seems to work without $vars see:

This was a problem of the forum sentq, in fact it was written correct here.

Even by adding the php file in includes/hooks it is not working at all, the function is never called

I can confirm hooks.php is being readed, but it is not working for this hook so far.

There are many hooks that doesn't seems to be working in 5.3.3

Just make your own test.

 

Install WHMCS 5.3.3

 

Make a php file in includes/hooks

 

And test each of the hooks in the Order section.

 

You will see none works, then if you try for example 'TicketOpen' hook, it works fine.

but i think i didn't see any of this in the change log,

you can try to store information into database table instead of print it out.

This is a bug my friend, I already did all sorts of tests, none of the 'cart.php' hooks are working at all.

Take a closer look at your hook and at this link http://au2.php.net/ob_start

This function may also help you http://au2.php.net/manual/en/function.ob-get-contents.php

 

Remember when the page is generated by whmcs the same format is used so you may need to exit the script immediately after your output.

Hello, Sparky.

 

I made other types of tests, I am 100% sure they are not working.
