I don't think there is a lot that can be done about that. In my opinion, and knowledge, this has to do with the server resources that are available for your site. Large amounts of attribute require large amounts of memory and cpu. But if someone knows a solution for that please help out.

Hi,

I'm not sure if this is a problem with dynamic filter or not as it was previously working but I have exhausted every possibility I can think of other than contacting my hosting company to see if they have changed anything. On my website www.eliterugs.com.au I have had dynamic filter installed for about a month, I had previously tested it and everything was bullet proof. Yesterday I noticed that the sort by price option returns a 403 forbidden error. All the other options work fine in any combination but as soon as you add the price it fails.

I was wondering if anyone had any idea what could be causing this. As far as I can remember all I have worked on in the last couple of days was adding some dynamic remarketing and analytics code and I upgraded my google merchant centre code.

There are no error logs generated by zen cart or my website and I have double checked my database against a backup from a month ago and it still looks the same.

I am open to any any and all suggestions at this stage as I have run out of ideas.

Thanks.

Haven't seen that error before, but it is quit possible it is caused by this mod. The price filtering has always been buggy.
What happens if you use a different filter style?

Thanks for the reply, after an extremely long day yesterday looking through all the code and undoing everything that I had worked on over the last 3 days trying to find the problem. I got onto my web host this morning and it turns out they had done a security update and turned on a new mod_security setting (341245) that was blocking this feature. They have now turned it off for me and everything is working perfectly once again. Hopefully this may help someone in the future if they experience a similar issue. The code it's self is still as bullet proof as ever. Thanks.

Thanks Eerin, for your feedback, saves me time going over the code to find an error

Thank you for pointing this out. I received a "403 page not found" error when selecting price as part of the filter. I searched high and low over the last week or so to see if I could find a solution but to no avail. After seeing this post over the weekend, I contacted my host this morning and they made some changes on their side and voila, the price filter is working again.

Power to the people that support community based projects!

I just want to say THANK YOU ALL for the reply. I will integrate and test the filter under 1.5.4.
