Hi all,

With us just having migrated to 5.7 I was reminded of a problem and the fix that we did that I wanted to share.

The problem we were having is that, in a nutshell, we don't do gift wrapping. Ever. The store however refuses to out right eliminate the gift wrap button. The problem is that the global GiftWrapAllowed variable is part of a if-and-than-else statement and not higher up in a nested hierarchy format. Thus you can turn off gift wraping but the button would always show up.

I'm sure that many others have solved this but I wanted to pass on the fix for others more wary at digging into code blindly. The fix is located in the Cart.aspx.vb code and is rather simple starting at line 259:

If (WebAppSettings.GiftWrapAll = False) And (gwp.GiftWrapAllowed = False) Then

That is the original line which you will need to change to:

If (WebAppSettings.GiftWrapAll = True) Then
If (gwp.GiftWrapAllowed = False) Then

Then further down starting at line 298 you will need to change this:

                        End If
                    End If
                End If
                ' End 5.4 Gift Wrap Code

To this:

                        End If
                    End If
         Else
                           btnGiftWrap.Visible = False
                           lblGiftWrap.Visible = False
                           lblGiftWrapQty.Visible = False
                           lblgiftwrapprice.Visible = False
        End If
            End If
                ' End 5.4 Gift Wrap Code

I hope this helps anyone looking to make sure that the global gift wrap setting overrides all as (IMHO) it should.

Good luck.

Where are you seeing Gift Wrap show up? We never offer it either, but have never had an issue with it showing up anywhere with any version.

The button always showed up in the cart on our site even when the GiftWrapAll variable was set to false. I can't speak for others only what was happening on our site.

The problem (for us) seemed to be the GiftWrapAll variable was included with the GiftWrapAllowed variable as an and/or part of the if-than-else statement. Simply separating the two, and making the more global admin controlled variable override all others seems to have fixed the issue. I'm not saying this applies to everyone but if someone is seeing the same thing and wanted to know how to fix it. there you go.
