Can you check to see why all of the tables are prefixed with:
zen_

except for the:
zs_products_attributes

Hi Ajeh, thank you for your reply.

I used PHPMyAdmin to check the table headers in my SQL database, and products_attributes is prefixed with zen_

I'm not sure where else to look. Can you offer any further pointers..

thank you in advance for any help you can offer..

Hi,

Has anybody managed to get this working in v 1.5 yet? I copied the files over and the options show up in the sidebox, but when you click on one of the dropdowns the page comes up blank?
Thanks

Has anyone duplicated this filter to have two filters on one category page? I was thinking of duplicating the module file but I have a feeling that will not work.

For anyone still having difficulty sorting the order of attribute dropdowns in the product filter sidebox, you can add the ORDER BY statement to tpl_product_filter.php file, such as:

if(SHOW_ATTRIBUTES){
		$option_names = $db->Execute("SELECT products_options_id,products_options_comment FROM " . TABLE_PRODUCTS_OPTIONS . " WHERE products_options_sort_order < 500 ORDER BY products_options_sort_order");
		while (!$option_names->EOF) {
		$options_array = array (array("id"=> "", "text" => $option_names->fields['products_options_comment'])); rsort($options_array);

Note that the above code includes the statement for excluding attributes from the filter box, as detailed earlier in this thread.

Hope it helps

At the moment this mod displays all option values in the database. I am trying to have the option values display only if they are in use by the category selected.

Now, I can filter option values based on simple criteria such as sort order or id, but it's the filtering of values that are 'in use' that's giving me trouble.

This code seems to denote which option values are displayed:

$option_names_values = $db->Execute("select pov.products_options_values_id, pov.products_options_values_name from ". TABLE_PRODUCTS_OPTIONS_VALUES_TO_PRODUCTS_OPTIONS." povp,".TABLE_PRODUCTS_OPTIONS_VALUES." pov where povp.products_options_values_id = pov.products_options_values_id AND povp.products_options_id = ".$option_names->fields['products_options_id']);

If anyone has a suggestion as to how I can display option values that apply only to products in the current category, it would be a big help.

This mod might be what i need but all the problems users are having in the forum is putting me off.
i simply need a drop down filter on my product listing pages with a sort by size option
to narrow down the products displayed.
Could someone post a link of this mod actually working as thy'ed like?
Cheers

curious - has this been resolved? are you able to have only values used by the category show?

am running Dynamic Filter on my site, but it is far less than optimal....

Hello,

This is a very nice mod. For me there is just one issue. I use this mod in combination with 'stock by attributes'.
So I can search by option value. Problem is that the item is showed when there is an option value for that particular item, even when stock is zero.
How and where can I change the code in a way that only the products with specific option value and stock > 0 are shown.

Anybode an idea?

Thanks,
Wim
