Zen Cart Product Tags (and Tag Cloud): Support Thread
Coming soon! I'm wrapping up the distribution for the Zen Cart Product's "Tag Cloud" plugin.
This plugin, like its WordPress equivalent, enables your store to display a "Tag Cloud" sidebox through which your customers can search for your products using their defined "tags".
The admin-level handling uses a bit of AJAX to allow you to easily define those tags. The plugin requires a couple of admin-level core-file edits, for Zen Cart 1.5.6 and later, to add notifications that are already "baked into" Zen Cart 1.5.7 and later to enable those definitions.

Re: Zen Cart Product Tags (and Tag Cloud): Support Thread
I've just submitted v1.0.0 to the Zen Cart moderators for review; I'll post back here when it's available for download (https://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=2262).

Re: Zen Cart Product Tags (and Tag Cloud): Support Thread
Hello. I have just installed the plugin. It's hard to say why at the moment but it seems to get negatively affected the site's "search by keyword" functionality. The feature doesn't work any longer, in fact it completely crashed. The advanced search gives you the following message: "WARNING: An Error occurred, please refresh the page and try again".http://ingars.org/
Here you can compare. http://ingars.000webhostapp.com/. There is no plugin installed

FWIW, I just tried an "advanced search" with no warning on the ingars.org site. When you saw that error message, did you find an associated myDEBUG*.log file in the store's /logs sub-directory?

Just experimenting looking for mouse.
Attachment 18770
But in fact there is a mouse on sale. See the other hoster
Attachment 18771
than you choose hardware + include subcategories checker and finally the warning message. I'll pull out the log.

... and 'soon' is now. I've created an issue on the plugin's GitHub to track the change. You can edit your copy of /includes/classes/observers/auto.zen_tags_search.php, replacing the following 'case' section to correct the issue:
Code:
case 'NOTIFY_SEARCH_WHERE_STRING':
global $keywords, $where_str;
if ($this->tID !== false) {
$p2c_str = 'p2c.categories_id = c.categories_id';
$p2c_pos = strpos($where_str, $p2c_str);
$GLOBALS['where_str'] = substr($GLOBALS['where_str'], 0, $p2c_pos + strlen($p2c_str)) . " AND t2p.tag_id = {$this->tID} )";
} else {
if (!empty($GLOBALS['keywords']) && isset($_GET['keyword']) && zen_parse_search_string(stripslashes($_GET['keyword']), $search_keywords)) {

Thanks to @Ingar for access to his site so that I could "see" what was going on. I've just submitted v1.0.1 of the plugin to the Zen Cart moderators for review and will post back here when it's available for download.
This release contains changes associated with the following GitHub issues:
#5: Advanced Search: Correct MySQL error when sub-categories included.
#6: Advanced Search: Correct "no search results returned" when no tags are defined.
#7: Don't display Tag Cloud sidebox if no tags are defined.

Re: Zen Cart Product Tags (and Tag Cloud): Support Thread
Hello there,
Thanks for making this module! I just wondred, when using DBio importer, is there a way to import tags that are phrases of two words or more? I can set them in admin but it doesn't seem to like them (which makes sense). Wasn't sure if there was a symbol that would act as a space? Thanks in advance.

FWIW, I normally use a hyphen (-) to make kinda-sorta-not-exactly phrases (like the in-core tag on my website).

Thanks for that. I did think of a hyphen but wasn't sure if it would mess with the SEO or the module functionality. Though I title most images like this, so think hyphens must be okay.

Good idea, Nick. I've created a GitHub issue (https://github.com/lat9/ZenTags/issues/8) to track this change request.
I'm assuming that your request is for inclusion on a product's details (e.g. product_info) page.

Yes on the product info page. The idea being that google will come along and pick up the associated keywords and then rank each product in the associated searches when someone searches on a specific term.
Here's another one for you. On the advanced search result page after you click on a tag it just says Advanced Search Result in the H1 tag.
It might be good to include the keyword term in the Advanced Search Result H1 tag. So you would have
HTML Code:
<h1>Advanced Search Result - My Keyword Term from the Tag Cloud</h1>
I am also wondering if it would be beneficial to include these pages associated with the tag cloud in the website XML Sitemap with the Sitemap XML module.

Nick, I'll note that the breadcrumbs for the search page already include the search term; see https://vinosdefrutastropicales.com/...&keyword=debug.
Regarding the Sitemap XML information, I don't see what 'group' a collection of searchable products would fall into.

Yeah I have it working on my site https://venturedesignandprint.co.uk
It's working a treat by the way. Do you think having the search term in the breadcrumbs is enough to make the actual search page an individual page for google ranking?
I'm not sure how you would do the sitemap, but I was thinking of each individual search term defined leading to the search page in the sitemap.
As an example I have 'Custom Business Cards' set up as a tag, and the link goes to https://venturedesignandprint.co.uk/...siness%20cards
So it would be the search link that appears in the sitemap xml file. Not the individual products for that term. I suppose you could categorise them as something like 'Tagged Products' and 'sitemaptaggedproducts.xml' with a list of the tag links for google to crawl.

Huh? Lines 49-55 of the plugin's admin observer read
Code:
// -----
// If a product is being updated, update its tag names as well.

$zen_tags = new ZenTags();
$zen_tags->updateProductTagInputs((int)$p1a['products_id']);

Nope, that was the precurser; the plugin library is current and that notification was in the previous (unreleased) version. It's benign as zc157 added a better set of notifications.

Have you edited any products to add tags? The sidebox won't display if either the plugin is not enabled via configuration or there are no tags available. See My Site (in my signature) to see how it displays on zc157d.

ZenTags doesn't use the products' meta-tags, it uses the product-tags that you supply when you edit a product.

Re: Zen Cart Product Tags (and Tag Cloud): Support Thread
hello, thanks ok now it works,
I noticed that there are additional fields, EAN, Google Product Category, MNP, are they always part of the plug in?
Do these tags have an influence on search engines for positioning and seo? Thank you

None of the additional fields you identified are provided or used by the plugin. The tags provide an alternate method for customers to search for your products; they are not included in a specific product's meta-data and, thus, provide no influence on search engines.

Re: Zen Cart Product Tags (and Tag Cloud): Support Thread
Hello, thanks, for the info, but so the plug in has no purpose, the tag cloud in wordpress have a specific function of creating an ad hoc link to index and position in search engines, it would be advisable to have the plug in do this job , customers just need to search with the search box. Cordial greetings

Re: Zen Cart Product Tags (and Tag Cloud): Support Thread
Hello there,
I am not sure if its a php thing, I am on 7.x as still sorting out minpr issues with php 8 switch. But I get the following error with 2.0:-
Quote:
PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined method ZenTags::getProductTagLinks() in /***/public_html/includes/modules/pages/product_info/header_php_product_info_zen_tags.php:14
I disabled that file for now as getting logs every few seconds. Site seems to still work though, just warning log.

Yep, that function doesn't exist, nor is the output of that header-file used anywhere!

Actually this issue here is that I'd forgotten to include that method in the ZenTags class; see this (https://github.com/lat9/ZenTags/issues/11) GitHub issue for tracking.
The output of that call is used by the optional edit to the site's active template: https://github.com/lat9/ZenTags/wiki...ation%22-pages
