Update products quantity in category listing

[wlmartin]

I was able to work around by disabling the mouse over function for this page. Now to edit the product page you cannot just rollover the product line to go to the product page. To edit the product page you must click on the edit icon on the right side of the page under action.

The file to edit is category_product_listing.php in your admin/includes/modules. There are two sections that reference the mouseover - you want to edit the second set.

I would suggest editing a backup copy first and then apply to your site. I remember editing a few other parts of the code to get everything to line up properly but this will enable the edit quantity function.

I like this functionality so much I am going to try to apply it to the SORT ORDER as well.

Hey, Louis..........What exactly did you edit those lines to be? I found them and messed with them for an hour with all kinds of results............none of which worked for me. I really don't care about being able to click on the whole row, anyway, so that's not a problem. The problem is, no matter WHAT I done to either one or both of those lines, if it wasn't broke altogether, you couldn't click inside the box without it taking you to the products' page. Of course, the right-click/select all worked, but that kinda' sucks, ya' know?

Nevermind. I got it.

For those interested, find the second set (around lines 321 - 323) of the mouseover lines Louis was talking about in Admin/includes/modules/category_product_listing.php

That whole section will look like this:

// Split Page
      $type_handler = $zc_products->get_admin_handler($products->fields['products_type']);
      if (isset($pInfo) && is_object($pInfo) && ($products->fields['products_id'] == $pInfo->products_id) ) {
        echo '              <tr class="dataTableRow" onclick="document.location.href=\'' . zen_href_link($type_handler , 'page=' . $_GET['page'] . '&product_type=' . $products->fields['products_type'] . '&cPath=' . $cPath . '&pID=' . $products->fields['products_id'] . '&action=new_product') . '\'">' . "\n";
      } else {
        echo '              <tr class="dataTableRow" onclick="document.location.href=\'' . zen_href_link($type_handler , 'page=' . $_GET['page'] . '&product_type=' . $products->fields['products_type'] . '&cPath=' . $cPath . '&pID=' . $products->fields['products_id'] . '&action=new_product') . '\'">' . "\n";
      }
// Split Page

Edit the two lines that include the mouseover part so that whole block of code looks like this:

// Split Page
      $type_handler = $zc_products->get_admin_handler($products->fields['products_type']);
      if (isset($pInfo) && is_object($pInfo) && ($products->fields['products_id'] == $pInfo->products_id) ) {
        echo '              <onclick="return false">' . "\n";
      } else {
        echo '              <onclick="return false">' . "\n";
      }
// Split Page

And as already stated, this takes away the clicking ability for the whole row. You will now HAVE to use the icons on the right to edit products, but your stock updates will work perfectly from there.



You can put some color back in it by editing your Admin/includes/stylesheet.css.

Hope this clarifies some of the confusion for others.

I installed this contrib, and thank you for the fix above. It worked.

However, when I click on the manage text to the right, it goes to a 404 not found page, saying something about an image in the URL.

What is the purpose of the manage link?

I think the manage link is for additional pics add on.

also the code is now around lines 631, the same fix works.

THANKX!!

Another workaround:

In IE8, you can highlight the quantity with the mouse, keep holding the button down, and move the cursor off the row, then release the mouse button, and then type the number you need.

Does not work that way in firefox. Don't know about other browsers.
