Ok I did that step.  I also cleared out the error log. . . thinking that was part of what was needed but then realized you only wanted me to perform step one.  Crap.  I'll try and make it spit out some errors in the log.

Edit:  Tried to submit the product again to the store and this time it spat out a different error:

For the Store error. I noticed on one of the product pages. Somehow the primary image was deleted was deleted and nothing reset. And that impacted the secondary images for the medium thumbnails.

The fix for that just edited the items pictures and set an image that was uploaded a primary.

So it's fixed?

Edit:  Phew!  Looks like it is all working.  Thank you!  Should I put the MySQL server back the way it was?

The problem with the newsletter appears to have something to do with me re-naming the tiny_mce folder.  Running my newsletter through tiny_mce makes it look like poo but the links work.  Without tiny_mce it looks fine but none of the links work.   :-\

Yes posted an update last night and updated your site for any new products that are posted and you delete the primary image.
What do you mean by MySQL server?

You had me change the database so that it would accept this eval() stuff.  Do I need to change it back now?

You don't need to change it.

Still not able to send out my newsletter. 

Here is what I have attempted so far:

I found the TinyMCE support forum and read where a bunch of people are trying to allow their users who use tinymce to change the formatting background and link colors.  Finally found enough hints to make the newsletter look good in tinymce.  The trick for me was to wrap everything in a <div></div> and then change the things you want like the background color within that <div>. 

Quote
<div "style = background-color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Newsletter</div>

But even now. . . my links don't work.  But they don't work in a different way. . . I'm thinking you might have been working on my site trying to de-bug it because all the links now go to a white page that has:

Quote
link: http://link.address.com

I'm kind of desperate to get this newsletter out so I'm going to un-install the plugin, re-install it and hope that that undoes your changes and I can get it to finally work.

I just thought I'd post this here so you were aware that I was aware of this thing you had done.

So I finally got the links to work. . . through tiny_MCE.  I decide to do it "right" and schedule a campaign to send out the newsletter to my test group of just me.  Scheduled it 5 minutes from then. . . all good.  Went and made a sandwich. . . came back. . . no e-mail.  Nothing was sent.   :'(

This isn't a show stopper because I have the other way of sending them out manually but. . . sheesh.  Shouldn't THAT work?

If you are scheduling a campaign I believe you need to setup a cron job in order for the scheduler to run.

On top of schedule campaign says to setup a cron job
Important! Setup a cron job to run every minute and make it run the following url: http://www.domain.com/newscron.php

Basically you want to setup a cron job to fetch that url.

Did you end up getting it working? I got a newsletter from one of my test accounts on your site.

I DID!  Thank you for your help.  All the 7000+ emails got out and I can see in the software the number of people that saw it, clicked on links, opted out of new newsletters etc.  All worked.  I never got the cron job to work but . . . I think that is a problem with my hosting company's interface to cron jobs.  Now that I have been through the pain of getting it to work I'm going to try and make this a weekly thing.  Get my money's worth.  ;-)
