Dynamic Filter [Support Thread]

[Kevin205]

There would be no point having filter by category when you are already viewing a category. Similarly on manufacters pages category filter shows but manufacters filter does not.

I think there is a point to it.
Let say you have a top category T-Shirts and you have 20 different brand of T-Shirts as sub-categories. With one of the T-shirt styles being V-Neck.

If you click on the top category T-Shirts, you will get 20 sub-category (brands) below the T-Shirts, under the categories window (in the left Cat window). As it is now.

So how would you filter, if you are looking for v-neck T-shirts among T-shirts->and 20 manufacturer?

Unless I am missing something or doing something wrong, top categories should be filterable also.

Again the filter is being utilized in

index.php?main_page=products_all 

and

index.php?main_page=products_new 

I don't understand why it can't be invoked in the top categories?

Unless I'm missing something it's sounds like you want it to filter the subcategories. It will only filter products.

Post a link to the site and ill take a look see if I can understand what you mean

I can't it is being tested on a local server.

Here you go.

[philip937]

so you have both brand/manufacturer Arrow AND a category called Arrow??

so when you are at category level you see the sub cat arrow, and there are no products so therefore nothing to filter.

if what you are saying is that you want a filter to be able to filter categories that contain products with Vnecks then thats some serios additional coding and way above my abilty.

Are there any errorlogs in the cache / log folder ?
what version of ZC?

[Wilkesy]

Ive just gone through every file deleting to see if it affects the shop and the functions_general.php file is the reason. There is something in here that is causing to shop not to load properly.

Always forget about the error logs.

PHP Fatal error: Cannot redeclare zen_create_random_value() (previously declared in /home/rattanga/public_html/includes/functions/functions_general.php:626) in /home/rattanga/public_html/includes/functions/password_funcs.php on line 86



I am running Zencart 1.5.1
