An important MYSQL database access recovery step is to reset the database server's root password in cases where that is lost.  The following statement run in a <code>mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables</code> session works, while some of the more standard and MYSQL 5.7 documented password change statements fail due to a bug in MYSQL . . .

This string may work on newer versions of MYSQL, but fails on MYSQL 5.4.51:
  
 
   mysql> update mysql.user set authentication_string=password('MyNewPass') where user='root';
 
   mysql> update mysql.user set authentication_string=password('MyNewPass') where user='root';

Programmer James Heinrich has written a PHP library to thumbnail and manipulate image files in other ways.  James' PHP library project is available at both GitHub and SourceForge,
 +
 +
*  http://phpthumb.sourceforge.net
 +
*  https://github.com/JamesHeinrich/phpThumb
 +
 +
 +
To obtain a copy of this project,
 +
 +
    $ git clone https://github.com/JamesHeinrich/phpThumb ./phpThumb
 +
 +
Chosen directory for downloaded instance of phpThumb is outside of web doc root.  Will see whether this works . . . running in the 'demo' directory of phpThumb find that PHP's usable memory is set to -1, a seeming default value which likely won't allow phpThumb to work properly.  Have per instructions installed ImageMagick utilities as available through Ubuntu 16.04.x LTS package list.  The configuration checking script <code>phpThumb/demo/phpThumb.demo.check.php</code> so far reports that no ImageMagick program found.
 +
 +
Also noticed that config checker says phpThumb cache directory present, readable but not writable.  Created a /var/cache/phpThumb directory and amended file <code>phpThumb/phpThumb.config.php</code>.  Cache directory yet reported 'not writable'.  Changed ownership on this directory from root:root to www-data:www-data.  Ok now writable . . . and now ImageMagick also found!  Hmm, interesting.
 +
 +
Demo files are a little hard to parse at first glance, which hashes of hashes set up to hold multiple demos shown in a single web document.  The following phpThumb demo file at SourceForge is also part of our download.  This looks like best starting point to get started and running with basic thumb-nailing of images:
 +
 +
    http://phpthumb.sourceforge.net/index.php?source=phpThumb.demo.object.simple.php
 +
 +
 +
About phpThumb file caching, this project file has important info starting at about line 135:
 +
 +
    https://github.com/JamesHeinrich/phpThumb/blob/master/docs/phpthumb.readme.txt
 +
 +
<i>
 +
"Note: phpThumb.php is where the caching code is located, if you instantiate
 +
your own phpThumb() object that code is bypassed and it's up to you to
 +
handle the reading and writing of cached files."
 +
</i>
 +
 +
 +
When using single object to process multiple images:
 +
 +
    http://phpthumb.sourceforge.net/index.php?source=phpThumb.demo.object.php
 +
 +
 +
<b>Summary - phpThumb file edits to get simple demo working</b>
 +
 +
We place phpThumb project files in <web_document_root>/lib/phpThumb.  Here we edit two files, those named <code>phpthumb.config.php</code> and  <code>phpthumb.class.php</code>.  In the config file we set phpThumb's high security password to something non-null and long, non-dictionary word string:
 +
 +
  45 $PHPTHUMB_CONFIG['high_security_password']      = '...';
 +
 +
 +
In the class file we amend line 70 to name a relative path to a cache directory for phpThumb:
 +
 +
    70        public $config_cache_directory                      = './cache'; // null;
 +
 +
 +
We still can't make work the <code>phpThumb.demo.demo.php</code> script.  We seem unable to make a successful call to the primary script with HTTP 'get' type parameters.  This is the script which manages thumbnail caching, the script named <code>phpThumb.php</code> . . .

Excerpt from phpThumb.config.php:
 +
 +
<pre>
 +
222 // * Compatability settings
 +
223 $PHPTHUMB_CONFIG['disable_pathinfo_parsing']        = true;  // if true, $_SERVER[PATH_INFO] is not parsed. May be needed on some server configurations to allow normal behavior.
 +
224 $PHPTHUMB_CONFIG['disable_imagecopyresampled']      = false;  // if true, imagecopyresampled is replaced with ImageCopyResampleBicubic. May be needed for buggy versions of PHP-GD.
 +
225 $PHPTHUMB_CONFIG['disable_onlycreateable_passthru'] = true;  // if true, any image that can be parsed by getimagesize() can be passed through; if false, only images that can be converted to GD by ImageCreateFrom(JPEG|GIF|PNG) functions are allowed
 +
226 $PHPTHUMB_CONFIG['disable_realpath']                = false;  // PHP realpath() function requires that "the running script must have executable permissions on all directories in the hierarchy, otherwise realpath() will return FALSE". Set config_disable_realpath=false to enable alternate filename-parsing that does not use realpath() function (but also does not resolve symbolic links)

In 2018 Aril Society web team using Opencart made some amendments to show quantities of store items available on the default, first search results pages.  Also added a trivial test to check for zero quantity available and mark the item as "sold out" underneath the item image.
 +
 +
In 2019 web team working to resolve an Opencart 2.3.0.2 issue where an order that holds the last item or items of a given store item can't be edited, somehow related to that item's quantity becoming zero at or about time of customer submitting given order.  We're creating a separate wiki article for now to hold this work, as 2018 notes are incomplete and cover other topics,

Within Opencart 2p3p0p2 there are at least two scripts named 'product.php'.  One of these in ~/opencart-2p3p0p2/catalog/model/catalog/ defines the following public functions, and this file is mentioned in the second reference just above:
 +
 +
<pre>
 +
$ grep -n function product.php
 +
3: public function updateViewed($product_id) {
 +
7: public function getProduct($product_id) {
 +
59: public function getProducts($data = array()) {          <-- this function starting on line 59 looks most promising
 +
209: public function getProductSpecials($data = array()) {        for showing how to later access and send to browser the
 +
259: public function getLatestProducts($limit) {                  quantity of each product found in a given search.  - TMH
 +
275: public function getPopularProducts($limit) {
 +
291: public function getBestSellerProducts($limit) {
 +
309: public function getProductAttributes($product_id) {
 +
337: public function getProductOptions($product_id) {
 +
376: public function getProductDiscounts($product_id) {
 +
382: public function getProductImages($product_id) {
 +
388: public function getProductRelated($product_id) {
 +
400: public function getProductLayoutId($product_id) {
 +
410: public function getCategories($product_id) {
 +
416: public function getTotalProducts($data = array()) {
 +
518: public function getProfile($product_id, $recurring_id) {
 +
524: public function getProfiles($product_id) {
 +
530: public function getTotalProductSpecials() {
 +
 +
$
 +
</pre>
 +
 +
The token 'quantity' appears in product.php about eight or ten times, but only two of those times is it part of an assignment to a returned result, usually an array.  These assignments appear respectively in functions <code>getProduct($product_id)</code> and <code>getProductOptions($product_id)</code>.
 +
 +
These two functions seem to query for and return a single product yet we want to see product quantities on the pages which show search results, often multiple products.  The function named <code>getProducts()</code> seems more promising.  Calls to this function are many throughout the sources of Opencart 2p3p0p2.  A list of them developed via grep is posted at,
 +
 +
*  https://neelanurseries.com/notas/z--getProducts-calls-to.txt
 +
 +
Among these results a promising source file which may be closer to the one we need amend to show quantities on Opencart search result pages is named <code>search.php</code>.  The other files which call this function are named after actions such as checkout which seem less related to the action of searching for items in the on-line store:
 +
 +
  ./catalog/controller/product/search.php:214: $results = $this->model_catalog_product->getProducts($filter_data);
 +
 +
There's also mention of two files in a different part of the Opencart installation:
 +
 +
<pre>
 +
./catalog/controller/common/cart.php:64: foreach ($this->cart->getProducts() as $product) {
 +
./system/library/cart/cart.php:33: public function getProducts() {
 +
./system/library/cart/cart.php:297: foreach ($this->getProducts() as $value) {
 +
./system/library/cart/cart.php:309: foreach ($this->getProducts() as $product) {
 +
./system/library/cart/cart.php:321: foreach ($this->getProducts() as $product) {
 +
./system/library/cart/cart.php:331: foreach ($this->getProducts() as $product) {
 +
./system/library/cart/cart.php:351: foreach ($this->getProducts() as $product) {
 +
./system/library/cart/cart.php:361: $products = $this->getProducts();
 +
./system/library/cart/cart.php:371: return count($this->getProducts());
 +
./system/library/cart/cart.php:379: foreach ($this->getProducts() as $product) {
 +
./system/library/cart/cart.php:389: foreach ($this->getProducts() as $product) {

In file along side cart.php, that is file ./catalog/controller/common/search.php what do the structure or class members 'load' and 'view' mean?  Do these call the code which runs the database search and assigns results to the $products array?

=== [[#top|^]] <i>searching for Opencart 'load' function</i> ===

Searching for token 'load' starting in OC root, here are some clueful findings:
 +
 +
<pre>
 +
 +
 +
./system/startup.php:113:require_once(modification(DIR_SYSTEM . 'engine/loader.php'));
 +
 +
./system/framework.php:23:$loader = new Loader($registry);
 +
./system/framework.php:24:$registry->set('load', $loader);
 +
</pre>
 +
 +
It looks like finding out the meaning of Opencart 'load' function requires us to learn about an Opencart class named 'Loader' . . .
 +
 +
Some further notes on files in [oc_root_dir]/system/engine:
 +
 +
<ul>
 +
*  registry.php  . . . defines set(), get() and has() methods, where a registry instance is like a scoreboard,
 +
*  event.php  . . . defines __construct(), register(), trigger(), unregister(), removeAction()
 +
*  action.php  . . . defines __construct(), getId(), execute()
 +
</ul>
 +
 +
In file system/engine/action.php there's some magic going on in function 'execute()', which loads files and creates new instances of classes dynamically . . .

=== [[#top|^]] <i>searching for OC function getProducts() </i> ===
 +
 +
There seem to be three instances of a function named getProducts() defined in three different files:
 +
 +
<pre>
 +
  ./search-04--token-getProducts-in-ocr.txt:1:./admin/model/catalog/product.php:343:      public function getProducts($data = array()) {
 +
 +
  ./search-04--token-getProducts-in-ocr.txt:13:./catalog/model/catalog/product.php:59:    public function getProducts($data = array()) {
 +
 +
  ./search-04--token-getProducts-in-ocr.txt:76:./system/library/cart/cart.php:33: public function getProducts() {
 +
</pre>
 +
 +
In file <code>./admin/model/catalog/product.php</code> function getProducts() appears to capture product quantities in a database query.  How these are returned in an array named $rows is not yet clear . . .  - TMH
 +
 +
In file <code>./catalog/model/catalog/product.php</code> function getProducts() makes a complicated database query, and further along its definition appears to capture product quantity like the previous definition.  Here's a code snippet which hints at this, this code starting on line 158:
 +
 +
<pre>
 +
                $sort_data = array(
 +
                        'pd.name',
 +
                        'p.model',
 +
                        'p.quantity',
 +
                        'p.price',
 +
                        'rating',
 +
                        'p.sort_order',
 +
                        'p.date_added'
 +
                );
 +
</pre>
 +
 +
But further examination looks like this may be a sub-query, providing an intermediate result which amends an encompassing query to the database.  Need to confirm or rule out this case.  - TMH
 +
 +
Speaking of possible database sub-queries, the last lines of function getProducts in file 2 of 3 above, holds these following lines, and here worth noting that function getProducts() calls function getProduct():
 +
 +
<pre>
 +
202                foreach ($query->rows as $result) {
 +
203                        $product_data[$result['product_id']] = $this->getProduct($result['product_id']);
 +
204                }
 +
205
 +
206                return $product_data;
 +
207        }
 +

<!-- comment -->

== [[#top|^]] What We Know So Far ==
 +
 +
Some key things we now know about code execution of Opencart's PHP scripts and template files:
 +
 +
<ul>
 +
*  [oc_root]/catalog/view/theme/default/template/product/category.tpl lays out HTML for each product shown in general search results,
 +
*  [oc_root]/system/engine/loader.php references template or .tpl files by calling its $template->render() method,
 +
*  [oc_root]/system/engine/action.php loads Opencart PHP files, some repeatedly
 +
</ul>
 +
 +
The first of these three files, category.tpl contains PHP code which gets passed an array that's locally named $products.  This array contains the attributes of each product which is found to match a given user search of the store catalog.  Variable $products at this point holds a subset of the product attributes stored in OC database table named oc_products.  While variables are often renamed when passed as parameters, we notice there are a few places where database query results get assigned to a $products variable.  But we have not yet found the chain of data passing from that query assignment to the point of the array being read and sent out as HTML and content to the web browser.
 +
 +
Specifically we are looking for which code effectively passes database query results to OC template 'category.tpl', in the array which category.tpl calls $products.
 +
 +
Searching Opencart 2.3.0.2 sources for definitions of function 'render':
 +
 +
<pre>
 +
      1 grep -nr render\( ./* | grep -v javascript | grep function | grep render\( > ./search-08--function-render.txt
 +
      2
 +
      3 ./system/library/template.php:19:      public function render($template) {^M
 +
      4 ./system/library/pagination.php:13:    public function render() {^M
 +
      5 ./system/library/template/tiwg.php:10:  public function render($template) {^M
 +
      6 ./system/library/template/php.php:10:  public function render($template) {^
 +
</pre>
 +
 +
Thinking on this search, function render() is called after $data has been assigned or amended general search results.  In this sense render() is downstream of the data assignment we're looking for, which is the assignment of a database query to $products.  We need to find where are the places that system/engine/loader.php view() function are called, and which of these calls occur during general searches by users who visit the store?
 +
 +
 +
<!-- comment -->
 +
 +
=== [[#top|^]] calls to system/engine/loader.php view() ===
 +

ASI sale fees for handling, shipping, phytosanitation and taxes, per D Perry 2018-07-29:
 +
 +
<pre>
 +
    US -    $10 shipping,  $7.50 handling              = $17.50
 +
 +
    Canada - $20 shipping,  $7.50 handling,  $25 phyto = $52.50
 +
 +
    EU -    $40 shipping,  $7.50 handling,  $25 phyto = $72.50
 +
</pre>
 +
 +
In Opencart without additional extensions installed, a tax rate can be created to realize a given fee like phytosanitation.  Tax rates can be grouped under tax classes, so that for example a state tax and a phytosanitation fee can be added to an order bound to a particular state.  Shipping rates in the default Opencart installation are set in in Opencart's Extensions area . . .

An important MYSQL database access recovery step is to reset the database server's root password in cases where that is lost. The following statement run in a mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables session works, while some of the more standard and MYSQL 5.7 documented password change statements fail due to a bug in MYSQL 

This string may work on newer versions of MYSQL, but fails on MYSQL 5.4.51:

   mysql> update mysql.user set authentication_string=password('MyNewPass') where user='root';

This password resetting line works for the now old MYSQL 5.4.51:

   mysql> update mysql.user set Password=password('new_password') where user='root';

    ^ PHP Libraries

    Programmer James Heinrich has written a PHP library to thumbnail and manipulate image files in other ways. James' PHP library project is available at both GitHub and SourceForge,


    To obtain a copy of this project, 

       $ git clone https://github.com/JamesHeinrich/phpThumb ./phpThumb

    Chosen directory for downloaded instance of phpThumb is outside of web doc root. Will see whether this works . . . running in the 'demo' directory of phpThumb find that PHP's usable memory is set to -1, a seeming default value which likely won't allow phpThumb to work properly. Have per instructions installed ImageMagick utilities as available through Ubuntu 16.04.x LTS package list. The configuration checking script phpThumb/demo/phpThumb.demo.check.php so far reports that no ImageMagick program found.

    Also noticed that config checker says phpThumb cache directory present, readable but not writable. Created a /var/cache/phpThumb directory and amended file phpThumb/phpThumb.config.php. Cache directory yet reported 'not writable'. Changed ownership on this directory from root:root to www-data:www-data. Ok now writable . . . and now ImageMagick also found! Hmm, interesting.

    Demo files are a little hard to parse at first glance, which hashes of hashes set up to hold multiple demos shown in a single web document. The following phpThumb demo file at SourceForge is also part of our download. This looks like best starting point to get started and running with basic thumb-nailing of images: 

       http://phpthumb.sourceforge.net/index.php?source=phpThumb.demo.object.simple.php


    About phpThumb file caching, this project file has important info starting at about line 135: 

       https://github.com/JamesHeinrich/phpThumb/blob/master/docs/phpthumb.readme.txt

    "Note: phpThumb.php is where the caching code is located, if you instantiate your own phpThumb() object that code is bypassed and it's up to you to handle the reading and writing of cached files."


    When using single object to process multiple images: 

       http://phpthumb.sourceforge.net/index.php?source=phpThumb.demo.object.php


    Summary - phpThumb file edits to get simple demo working

    We place phpThumb project files in <web_document_root>/lib/phpThumb. Here we edit two files, those named phpthumb.config.php and phpthumb.class.php. In the config file we set phpThumb's high security password to something non-null and long, non-dictionary word string: 

      45 $PHPTHUMB_CONFIG['high_security_password']      = '...';


    In the class file we amend line 70 to name a relative path to a cache directory for phpThumb: 

       70         public $config_cache_directory                      = './cache'; // null;


    We still can't make work the phpThumb.demo.demo.php script. We seem unable to make a successful call to the primary script with HTTP 'get' type parameters. This is the script which manages thumbnail caching, the script named phpThumb.php . . .

    Excerpt from phpThumb.config.php: 

    222 // * Compatability settings
223 $PHPTHUMB_CONFIG['disable_pathinfo_parsing']        = true;   // if true, $_SERVER[PATH_INFO] is not parsed. May be needed on some server configurations to allow normal behavior.
224 $PHPTHUMB_CONFIG['disable_imagecopyresampled']      = false;  // if true, imagecopyresampled is replaced with ImageCopyResampleBicubic. May be needed for buggy versions of PHP-GD.
225 $PHPTHUMB_CONFIG['disable_onlycreateable_passthru'] = true;   // if true, any image that can be parsed by getimagesize() can be passed through; if false, only images that can be converted to GD by ImageCreateFrom(JPEG|GIF|PNG) functions are allowed
226 $PHPTHUMB_CONFIG['disable_realpath']                = false;  // PHP realpath() function requires that "the running script must have executable permissions on all directories in the hierarchy, otherwise realpath() will return FALSE".

    ^ Opencart Work

    2019-07-16 - Tuesday, some references, need to move these to 2019 notes on cart fixes and improvements: 

      .
  .
  .

    In 2018 Aril Society web team using Opencart made some amendments to show quantities of store items available on the default, first search results pages. Also added a trivial test to check for zero quantity available and mark the item as "sold out" underneath the item image.

    In 2019 web team working to resolve an Opencart 2.3.0.2 issue where an order that holds the last item or items of a given store item can't be edited, somehow related to that item's quantity becoming zero at or about time of customer submitting given order. We're creating a separate wiki article for now to hold this work, as 2018 notes are incomplete and cover other topics, 

      2019 Opencart amendments by ASI team


    2018 Opencart Amendments . . .

    How to show item quantity on the pages where items are shown during shopping:

    Within Opencart 2p3p0p2 there are at least two scripts named 'product.php'. One of these in ~/opencart-2p3p0p2/catalog/model/catalog/ defines the following public functions, and this file is mentioned in the second reference just above: 

    $ grep -n function product.php 
3:	public function updateViewed($product_id) {
7:	public function getProduct($product_id) {
59:	public function getProducts($data = array()) {           <-- this function starting on line 59 looks most promising
209:	public function getProductSpecials($data = array()) {        for showing how to later access and send to browser the
259:	public function getLatestProducts($limit) {                  quantity of each product found in a given search.  - TMH
275:	public function getPopularProducts($limit) {
291:	public function getBestSellerProducts($limit) {
309:	public function getProductAttributes($product_id) {
337:	public function getProductOptions($product_id) {
376:	public function getProductDiscounts($product_id) {
382:	public function getProductImages($product_id) {
388:	public function getProductRelated($product_id) {
400:	public function getProductLayoutId($product_id) {
410:	public function getCategories($product_id) {
416:	public function getTotalProducts($data = array()) {
518:	public function getProfile($product_id, $recurring_id) {
524:	public function getProfiles($product_id) {
530:	public function getTotalProductSpecials() {

$

    The token 'quantity' appears in product.php about eight or ten times, but only two of those times is it part of an assignment to a returned result, usually an array. These assignments appear respectively in functions getProduct($product_id) and getProductOptions($product_id).

    These two functions seem to query for and return a single product yet we want to see product quantities on the pages which show search results, often multiple products. The function named getProducts() seems more promising. Calls to this function are many throughout the sources of Opencart 2p3p0p2. A list of them developed via grep is posted at,

    Among these results a promising source file which may be closer to the one we need amend to show quantities on Opencart search result pages is named search.php. The other files which call this function are named after actions such as checkout which seem less related to the action of searching for items in the on-line store: 

     ./catalog/controller/product/search.php:214:			$results = $this->model_catalog_product->getProducts($filter_data);

    There's also mention of two files in a different part of the Opencart installation: 

    ./catalog/controller/common/cart.php:64:		foreach ($this->cart->getProducts() as $product) {
./system/library/cart/cart.php:33:	public function getProducts() {
./system/library/cart/cart.php:297:		foreach ($this->getProducts() as $value) {
./system/library/cart/cart.php:309:		foreach ($this->getProducts() as $product) {
./system/library/cart/cart.php:321:		foreach ($this->getProducts() as $product) {
./system/library/cart/cart.php:331:		foreach ($this->getProducts() as $product) {
./system/library/cart/cart.php:351:		foreach ($this->getProducts() as $product) {
./system/library/cart/cart.php:361:		$products = $this->getProducts();
./system/library/cart/cart.php:371:		return count($this->getProducts());
./system/library/cart/cart.php:379:		foreach ($this->getProducts() as $product) {
./system/library/cart/cart.php:389:		foreach ($this->getProducts() as $product) {
./system/library/cart/cart.php:399:		foreach ($this->getProducts() as $product) {


    2018-06-16 SAT Promising template file of Opencart which may allow for adding quantities to search results pages of the cart: 

     /var/www/domainname/public_html/opencart-2p3p0p2/catalog/view/theme/default/template/product/category.tpl

    In file along side cart.php, that is file ./catalog/controller/common/search.php what do the structure or class members 'load' and 'view' mean? Do these call the code which runs the database search and assigns results to the $products array?

    Figure x - source of file search.php: 

    <?php
class ControllerCommonSearch extends Controller {
        public function index() {
                $this->load->language('common/search');

                $data['text_search'] = $this->language->get('text_search');

                if (isset($this->request->get['search'])) {
                        $data['search'] = $this->request->get['search'];
                } else {
                        $data['search'] = '';
                }

                return $this->load->view('common/search', $data);
        }
}

    We're having a hard time finding an explicit assignment to $products array. It may be that this variable is named differently in different parts of Opencart source code . . .


    ^ searching for Opencart 'load' function

    Searching for token 'load' starting in OC root, here are some clueful findings: 

    

./system/startup.php:113:require_once(modification(DIR_SYSTEM . 'engine/loader.php'));

./system/framework.php:23:$loader = new Loader($registry);
./system/framework.php:24:$registry->set('load', $loader);

    It looks like finding out the meaning of Opencart 'load' function requires us to learn about an Opencart class named 'Loader' . . .

    Some further notes on files in [oc_root_dir]/system/engine:

      • registry.php . . . defines set(), get() and has() methods, where a registry instance is like a scoreboard,
      • event.php . . . defines __construct(), register(), trigger(), unregister(), removeAction()
      • action.php . . . defines __construct(), getId(), execute()

    In file system/engine/action.php there's some magic going on in function 'execute()', which loads files and creates new instances of classes dynamically . . .


    ^ searching for OC variable $products

    Searching for token 'products' . . . 

    ./library/cart/cart.php:361:            $products = $this->getProducts();


    zzz

    ^ searching for OC function getProducts()

    There seem to be three instances of a function named getProducts() defined in three different files: 

       ./search-04--token-getProducts-in-ocr.txt:1:./admin/model/catalog/product.php:343:      public function getProducts($data = array()) {

   ./search-04--token-getProducts-in-ocr.txt:13:./catalog/model/catalog/product.php:59:    public function getProducts($data = array()) {

   ./search-04--token-getProducts-in-ocr.txt:76:./system/library/cart/cart.php:33: public function getProducts() {

    In file ./admin/model/catalog/product.php function getProducts() appears to capture product quantities in a database query. How these are returned in an array named $rows is not yet clear . . . - TMH

    In file ./catalog/model/catalog/product.php function getProducts() makes a complicated database query, and further along its definition appears to capture product quantity like the previous definition. Here's a code snippet which hints at this, this code starting on line 158: 

                    $sort_data = array(
                        'pd.name',
                        'p.model',
                        'p.quantity',
                        'p.price',
                        'rating',
                        'p.sort_order',
                        'p.date_added'
                );

    But further examination looks like this may be a sub-query, providing an intermediate result which amends an encompassing query to the database. Need to confirm or rule out this case. - TMH

    Speaking of possible database sub-queries, the last lines of function getProducts in file 2 of 3 above, holds these following lines, and here worth noting that function getProducts() calls function getProduct(): 

    202                 foreach ($query->rows as $result) {
203                         $product_data[$result['product_id']] = $this->getProduct($result['product_id']);
204                 }
205 
206                 return $product_data;
207         }

    QUESTION: is function getProduct() ultimately where a given product's quantity is either captured or omitted?

./system/engine/loader.php:95:                  $output = $template->render($route . '.tpl');^M


    ^ What We Know So Far

    Some key things we now know about code execution of Opencart's PHP scripts and template files:

      • [oc_root]/catalog/view/theme/default/template/product/category.tpl lays out HTML for each product shown in general search results,
      • [oc_root]/system/engine/loader.php references template or .tpl files by calling its $template->render() method,
      • [oc_root]/system/engine/action.php loads Opencart PHP files, some repeatedly

    The first of these three files, category.tpl contains PHP code which gets passed an array that's locally named $products. This array contains the attributes of each product which is found to match a given user search of the store catalog. Variable $products at this point holds a subset of the product attributes stored in OC database table named oc_products. While variables are often renamed when passed as parameters, we notice there are a few places where database query results get assigned to a $products variable. But we have not yet found the chain of data passing from that query assignment to the point of the array being read and sent out as HTML and content to the web browser.

    Specifically we are looking for which code effectively passes database query results to OC template 'category.tpl', in the array which category.tpl calls $products.

    Searching Opencart 2.3.0.2 sources for definitions of function 'render': 

          1 grep -nr render\( ./* | grep -v javascript | grep function | grep render\( > ./search-08--function-render.txt
      2 
      3 ./system/library/template.php:19:       public function render($template) {^M
      4 ./system/library/pagination.php:13:     public function render() {^M
      5 ./system/library/template/tiwg.php:10:  public function render($template) {^M
      6 ./system/library/template/php.php:10:   public function render($template) {^

    Thinking on this search, function render() is called after $data has been assigned or amended general search results. In this sense render() is downstream of the data assignment we're looking for, which is the assignment of a database query to $products. We need to find where are the places that system/engine/loader.php view() function are called, and which of these calls occur during general searches by users who visit the store?


    ^ calls to system/engine/loader.php view()

    ^ Opencart Setting Table oc_settings

    Strange behavior going on where the sandbox / test store shows "quantity on hand" changes via files "template file .tpl six dirs below opencart root dir" and "product/category.php".


    ^ Tracking Down Add-To-Cart Appearances

    The word 'Availability' appears on singly selected products, and on this page which is not a search result itself there's an 'add to cart' button. This button appears also on category- and pattern-based search results pages along side or under each product displayed. We need to track down all places where this button is presented so that we may add PHP-based logic to Opencart's default scripts to replace this button with "SOLD OUT" message when product quantities in stock are zero . . .


    ^ Token 'Availability' appears on selected product page

    While the token 'Availability' appears only two times in Opencart 2.3.0.2 scripts and text files, the following pattern match results show this token assigned to two different variables among the scripts: 

    [web_document_root]/opencart-2p3p0p2$ grep -nr Availability ./*
./catalog/language/en-gb/product/compare.php:12:$_['text_availability'] = 'Availability';
./catalog/language/en-gb/product/product.php:9:$_['text_stock']                = 'Availability';

    ASI sale fees for handling, shipping, phytosanitation and taxes, per D Perry 2018-07-29: 

        US -     $10 shipping,   $7.50 handling              = $17.50

    Canada - $20 shipping,   $7.50 handling,   $25 phyto = $52.50

    EU -     $40 shipping,   $7.50 handling,   $25 phyto = $72.50

    In Opencart without additional extensions installed, a tax rate can be created to realize a given fee like phytosanitation. Tax rates can be grouped under tax classes, so that for example a state tax and a phytosanitation fee can be added to an order bound to a particular state. Shipping rates in the default Opencart installation are set in in Opencart's Extensions area . . .

    - 2018-07-25 WED -

This file from OC root directory worth looking into:

*  ./catalog/controller/common/header.php:85:           $data['contact'] = $this->url->link('information/contact');

       <div id="top-links" class="nav pull-right">

...found in this file:

   ./catalog/view/theme/default/template/common/header.tpl
