Hi guys!
This is the support thread for the Category Drop Down SELECT Menu Sidebox Contribution.
This will add a sidebox that has a Select Menu with your Categories and Subcategories. You can see it in action here:

It's a pretty simple mod with only three files. It'll be added to the download section soon!
You may wish to look into a full cPath vs just the $current_category_path as they are different ...
I'm not sure what you are referring to?Quote:

Ajeh, let me know if I did something incorrectly!
Might toss a couple products in there ... :smile:
Not sure if it would be more friendly if the sidebox followed the categories path ... as in I pick level 3 ... stay there rather than go back to the top ...
Pick from the Cat tabs and follow all the way down ...
Pick from the CSS menu of Cats and follow ... etc. etc.
It actually does that if I turn the SEO urls off. So for most people using this mod, it would function that way.Quote:

I have no idea what you're talking about, LOL.
The idea is ... when moving through the categories, regardless of how, the category tree(s) should follow your moves in the:
Categories sidebox
Categories Tab
CSS Categories Menu
Dropdown Categories
etc. etc. etc.
Otherwise you get a tad lost ...
OK maybe I've had too much Limoncello...! :blink:
I downloaded this module and went to install it via my FlashFXP. I changed all folders named YOUR_TEMPLATE to my template name and hit the Go button. Instead of uploading cleanly, as is the norm, it went into glitch mode and kept attempting to load the category_select_defines.php page over and over unsuccessfully. The error was:
but the file doesn't exist!Quote:
(R)550 Can't create directory: File exists
I then noticed that the category_select_defines.php is shared. (I belive that's what it means when an open hand icon is on the file, right?)
None of the other files have this shared icon on it, only this page.
I downloaded the module again and again found the "shared" icon on that file and the same issue with the upload.
What am I missing? Is that file supposed to be shared?
Thanks for any help (or black coffee!) you can offer.
