I was working on my site: http://airscopes.com
Everything was going fine. I made a bunch of modifications and things were going well as I added product. But when I started sorting products into sub-categories, I lost the footer on category level pages. You can see this if you visit the site.
I assume this has to do with the fact that there are product listings in my page templates for the category. As categories with subcategories can't have products, there is nothing to list and the query for product fails...somehow exiting compilation of the page.
I can think of several acceptable solutions:
1) catch the error in the query when it looks for products (but that requires knowing where the query is, and I dont)
2) do not open a page when a folder with subcategories is clicked -- but I have no idea how to do that.
3) change the query to include subcategories *see 1*
4) make a built in selection of the preference I am not aware of that will fix this issue.
I'd be glad for any help... took me like 4 hours to figure out where the issue was because I thought I'd muffed the code somewhere.
version 1.3
no upgrades, new install
I don't do add ons, but I have been modifying the tpl files -- using the template system
i have looked at the FAQ and searched here, but I didn't find anything.
the problem of course started when I added the sub-categories
This is my first store with Zen Cart, but the landscape is pretty familiar as I used to do development in tikiwiki.
Thanks for any help!
