Number of Products per page...

:O Limelites just the person I was hoping to respond! Thanks.

You wouldn't also be able to tell me how you were able to get Filter Results by: price, date added ect. on all product listings?

I think it mentions in this thread near the beginning that this mod will not work with sites which have the add to cart function on the listing pages. It only works on sites that have the 'more info' link replacing the add to cart function.

To make this work with your site would require some custom coding work.

As for the filter system, look on Google. I can't find the exact mod I used, but I remember I found it on an obscure site some where, not in the downloads area.

Sorry I can't be more help, busy building another two sites......

www.superfancy.co.uk and www.silkblooms.co.uk

Actually, for the product filter, try this:

Sure enough I turned off the add to cart buttons and it worked.

That is odd that with those buttons on the bottom drop down works fine but not the top. Thanks for the tip, I'll see if I can fix this myself now that I know where too look.

Also thanks for the filter link. I will try that.

Filter mod worked perfectly thanks! Which is great because our store sells thousands of coins and its so much easier for customers if they can filter by price.

I'll keep working on the other mod.

Quite happily, I stumbled upon this thread and easily implemented the ProductFilter2 mod, however...
I'm hoping someone has discovered a work around for this but yet again, I've run into the filter by price problem I always have with additions like this one.
I have several products that are priced by attributes and unfortunately, this mod doesn't, and may not be able to, take that into account.

Now choose filter by Price Low to High.

The first two items are seen by PF2 as $0.00 priced because they are priced by their carat sizes.

I've also tried the product_filter_by_attribute_and_price_range_0-7 mod with no luck because it wouldn't filter by a price based attribute.

You're welcome.

Oh and by the way, for anyone interested, the merged version which gives both the drop down for page numbers AND the choice to choose how many products per page (in my case 100, 200, 300, 400, View All) here is the split page file for /includes/classes:

You'll also need the define file added to /includes/languages/english/extra_definitions:

hi, i'm still a noob with php files and i've spent hours trying to un-do things i've messed up, so i'm just going to go ahead and ask....

i have installed these two bits, but am not seeing how to define the increments of the products per page and display it as a drop down box? what are the css styles/ids/etc i need to change to alter their appearance?

sorry to seem dense. my site is at http://store.inspiritcommon.com/ there's a password to access the site since it's not ready for prime time. un: alphatester pw:Gr8gratitude.

thanks!

hooray! i figured out how to change the per-page choices, but still cannot figure out what needs to change so it displays as a dropdown.

also figured out that i can add the class perPage to my stylesheet and control text display, but i can't seem to assign it a margin, or background so there must be a governing class that i'm missing.

also, i'd love some clarification on this:

        // perPage contains the number of items to list per page. 0 is used to indicate ALL

        if (isset($_GET['perPage'])) {
            $max_rows = (int) $_GET['perPage'];
            if ($max_rows < 0 or $max_rows >= 5000) {
                $max_rows=MAX_DISPLAY_PRODUCTS_LISTING;
                //This can be found in admin - config - maximum values.
            } elseif ($max_rows==0) {
                $max_rows=5000;
                //0 indicates ALL selected. So we use 5000 as a maximum
            }

does this mean that by default the user sees all items in the category? if i changed it to

            if ($max_rows < 9 or $max_rows >= 5000) {

would the user initially see 9 items per page? i couldn't get it to work like that but had already set it to remember the count across categories, so i'm not sure if that is affecting it.

Hi!

You're not a noob, you're just like most of us here NOT a programmer

Firstly I'm glad you got that number per page choices all figured out but would you care to share how

Ive loaded the two files and I get the dropdown menu for page selection and the previous/next page links ok but mysteriously no selection appears at all for number of products per page as is on limelites website.

Perhaps I'm missing a file I just uploaded these 2:

here is the split page file for /includes/classes:

http://www.limelites.co.uk/split_page_results.rar

You'll also need the define file added to /includes/languages/english/extra_definitions:

http://www.limelites.co.uk/alternative_page_numbers.rar

What is that code that you quoted, what's the file name you're editing. I checked on the tool kit I dont seem to have such a file, perhaps thats the one I'm missing.

I also saw your posts on the product filter by attributes post, I got all that to work if you got any issues still let me know.

Cheers!

P.S. why spend hours undoing mistakes wouldn't it be simpler to back up a file before messing with it :-)

Hey Zenners!

You might find my post here somewhat useful

http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showth...t=38551&page=4

Either way I copied limelite's 2 files to the proper places and I cant get the "select number of products to display" option to show. I disabled the add to cart button but it makes no difference.

Any ideas what I might be missing, please see on www.majesticsilver.co.uk
Thanks!!!
