I'm going to assume that you have a plastic shower base that's cracked. Last ditch effort! Dry the area off with a hair dryer to remove all moisture from the crack and caulk with epoxy cement. Give it plenty of time to set up and cure before you step in it.
Good luck and thank you for rating my answer. Tom

Clean with alcohol ( cleans, drys quick with no residew) before epoxy cement or any sealant. Silicone, epoxy.
