Dynamic Filter [Support Thread]

[Goldlion]

Thank you very much for posting this mod!

The mod works great on my product listings.

But I can't get it to work on my products_all, products_new and my featured products page. Could somebody please take a look for me?

My website address is: www.12bead.com

Greetings,
Paul

Hi Damian

This looks like a cool add-on and just what I'm looking for. Is the latest version of this plugin compatible with Version 1.5.1?

You can use the one found in the download section, but it needs some careful merging on some files.

-or-

You can use this updated version, which I am currently building on github
This contains all the bug fixes mentioned in this thread. the documentation is not updated yet

Hey Design! Does your version for 1.5.0 have the bugs worked out of it? I have the strangest problem with this filter on my store I'm building. If I put in a size of jean it will show like for example "Showing 2 of 2 found" but there won't be any items displayed, even though they look like the database is parsing it correctly. It works on some sizes but not others. It's a big and tall men's store I'm building so there are a lot of sizes. I was wondering if your version might have this problem fixed and if so, how do I download the entire folder with the files instead of each file separately? I can't seem to figure out how to download the files without opening them up, highlighting them and then copying them to the current files in the filter folder. Thanks for your help :).

does it work in zen cart 1.5.1? Thanks for your reply.

It does, but you wil need to do some careful merging. I am working on an updated version, but lack the time to update the documentation right now.
The pre-release can be found here at Github

HI , I am trying to add lots of filter to my products ( color, size, type , material, etc ) so that customers can filter their desired choices

All filters shows up on the side box filter list AND ALSO in the product info page

I don;t want all these filters to come up on my product info page ( except for color and size attribute)

I have see the flexible attribute plugin also but not able to go forward , also the read only attribute is not working

Experts , could you please advice , how to achieve this

On v1.51, I have replaced my installed 'product_filter_by_attribute_and_price_range_0-7' with the 'Dynamic_Attribute_filter-Version-1.2' from Design75's github page (thanks very much for this, it's great) and is working on local dev server - so sorry no live site to see.

I need to know whether the following behaviour is normal:

To replace the stock alpha dropdown I have installed both 'product_filter_module_for_zencart_1-1' and 'product_listing_sorter_v2' (not at the same time!) both of which do a similar sort of thing, then

if I filter with the dynamic mod and THEN sort with either of the above mods the filtered products get reset and display all

but, if I FIRST sort the products, say by price high-low and then filter, the sort remains in place on the filtered products.

So basically - sorting after filtering resets the filter

Pretty sure this isn't normal does anyone have an suggestions bearing in mind you can't see the site?

I managed to find a workaround for this

Anyone knows why would this mod throw an error on php 5.3, but does not on php 5.2?
I have tested this and error "trim() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in functions_general.php on line 63" only shows up on php 5.3.

Line 63 is part of:

  function zen_parse_input_field_data($data, $parse) {
    return strtr(trim($data), $parse);
  } 

Does anyone have a solution for this?
