Dynamic Filter [Support Thread]

[hrinfo]

Hi

Just checked the module with zen 1.5 and the standard as well as the same theme as before and it works fine so it is definitely not compatible with zen 1.51.

Thanks

Just an update and my apologies as the solution is already there. I think the developer(s) should modify the module to include DrBytes solution or at least included it in the documentation as a troubleshooting note.

Anyway for anyone looking for the solution it can be found here: http://www.zen-cart.com/showthread.p...-Thread/page22 Just look half way through for DrBytes revision. It works perfectly and I tested with a couple of different themes with no problem.

Hope it helps

Hi

I can not find any answer to my issue below through the forum so I hope that someone can help because I have found what I think is a bug.

I will try to explain and hopefully it makes sense. Overall I can click on All Products/New Products etc and it seems that it works fine. I can click on a first level category with products and it works fine again. The problem is that if I click/select on a second level category that it has no independent attributes set then the sidebox breaks and everything goes crazy with all boxes below the module going down the bottom of the page.

This happens because if there are no attributes assigned to a product the filter only displays as search options the Brands and Price. I can add an attribute and then everything is fine again. Effectively that means that you have to have at least one attribute that will apply to all products otherwise the module does not work as it breaks the layout. I have tested with different templates and there is always the same result. The only template template that does not do that is the default "classic" one.

I know that if it works in the classic then it is a template issue but why it works on all templates tried once there is an attribute assigned to the products and not when there is not and there is only Brand and Price.

I have tried to compare files/directories without success. It just seems to me that there is some if/then/else function missing to cover for such an event of no additional attributes but would not know where to start/finish.

Any ideas will be greatly appreciated and sorry no online access as working on xampp at the moment.

Regards

if you are using both Dynamic Filter and seo url mod,
set Filter Style to Checkbox (Single), the filter doesn't work, and the page goes to domain.com/product-1?fltBrand=Array
i think it's a bug, cause i tried installing a fresh store, only with 2 mods: dynamic filter and seo url, and i also tried different seo url mods,
always get the same error

anyway, if i set Filter Style to Link, it works

what do i use Dynamic Filter checkbox filter style together with Seo Url mod ?

I am sorry, I can not help you there. I do not use SEO modules (this is one of the reasons why)

Im having some problems with this mod,

For some of my attributes this is working perfect but when adding more then 4 attributes to a product it fails to give me any results (when filtering)



Here it shows the product attributes for this product!

After filtering, it does not show me the results allthough this product does have this attribute


This is the url that is being generated by the script:


I have not been able to find where the problem occurs, anybody have a pointer which can help me get this script functional ?

thanks a lot in advance

Ive looked in /cache/ logs files but it does not show me any errors, ive allso enabled strict error reporting, does not work too (no error message)

has probably to do with bugs in function_general file, this mod is horrible it functions for 30% .. dont install

Managed to fix my problems (PHP Warning: trim() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in);

Updated my zencart to 1.5.1, edited functions_general with the fixed dr_blyte supplied.

Now everything is working okay !

If you dont have experience with editing core files stay away from this 1.5.1 update since it requires modding of the core files...
