Dynamic Filter [Support Thread]

[boby]

I have a multilinguage site using multisite addon to make for each language a diffrent site;
I sell rugs and I would like to install dynamic filter addon for having diffrent search results (by size, style, origin ...)
I installed this addon, but for diffrent attributes that show all languages traduction of attributes at all websites (languages)
for example, for the option size when I turn it to on, I will see at search pages, "size, mesure(french), tamaño(spanish), dimensioni(italian);
So at the sidebox I will have a list of search fields repeating the attributes in all languages;

Also I have the error

Warning: strlen() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in /home/o112445/public_html/includes/functions/functions_general.php on line 153


and in top of header:

Warning: trim() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in /home/o112445/public_html/includes/functions/functions_general.php on line 63


please can somebody help me to make this addon working with my multisite multilingue websites;

and at search results:
Warning: strlen() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in /home/o112445/public_html/includes/functions/functions_general.php on line 153

Can I bump this issue please, I'm suffering from it too.
I have used the Doc's solution posted here http://www.zen-cart.com/showthread.p...e-string/page4 for the issue ref line 153 but still can't resolve it for ref line 63.
Thanks

I am using 1.5 and installed dynamic filter. I was checking the cache file for an error due to IH4 (since removed) but found this error repeated multiple times:

[20-Aug-2012 23:28:49 UTC] PHP Warning: strlen() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in ... includes/functions/functions_general.php on line 153

Line 153 starts with the if statement for DF:

// bof dynamic filter 1 of 3
        if ( (!in_array($key, $exclude_array)) && (strlen($value) > 0 || is_array($value) && array_filter($value) ) && ($key != 'main_page') && ($key != zen_session_name()) && ($key != 'error') && ($key != 'x') && ($key != 'y') ) {
// eof dynamic filter 1 of 3

Is there something that needs to be edited within that section of code to stop the errors but allow the add-on to continue functioning?

Thank you!

I'm getting the same error on zen cart 1.39 with Ceon Uri Mapping installed.
Haven't got a solution for this either...

Thank you, Dr. Byte. I did read that but was hoping someone could tell me how to fix it while keeping the add-on intact and I didn't want to hijack someone else's thread with something that seems add-on specific.

That particular fix has a LOT of code and I am great at copy paste but the editing gets pretty tricky unless someone tells me exactly what to edit. I have about a 2% understanding of how this stuff works, lol.

*edited to add more detail.

[shartlesville]

Well, lol, I got it working without an error! I don't know if it is correct but it's working.

I added part of Dr. Byte's suggestion from the other thread, then commented out part of the DF mod. I didn't want to just delete stuff in case it messed up. I've sorted various pages using the filters without any errors in the cache file and so far I haven't seen any ill effects. If you (anyone reading this) notice something that is obviously a problem, please let me know so I can fix it. =) Thank you!

Blessings,
Krisann
