    Default Css Flyout Categories Menu troubles

    Ok, Hopefully this will get someones attention.

    I installed this contribution on my locals testing setup and everything worked perfectly.

    I then installed it on my live site and it isn't working. It shows the menu but no catagories show up. Only the Specials... New Products ... Featured Products ...
    All Products ... links that are normally at the bottom of the menu. There is a space above where the catagories would go, enough room for maybe one line but nothing there.

    During instalation i did make the mistake of installing it in the template_default directories instead of the classic directory. I thought that may be the problem and causing some kind of conflict but i went and got rid of all of the files from template_default and restored the template_info.php file.

    Any ideas on what is wrong here. It's working great on my testing server.

    I am using ZC 1.2.7

    If no categories are showing in it, then it's not finding them in the database, or you've installed something wrong.

    What's the URL of your hosted server where this is "not" working?
    If you turn on the original categories sidebox, what shows?

    DrByte,

    My Url is www.diytacticalstore.com/catalog it is on a dedicated server but i share it with my other sites if that makes sense.

    In my original menu everything shows up perfectly with no issues as far as I can tell.

    The site is live and has been for almost 2 months. I will activate the CSS menu and place it at the bottom of the left column so you can look at it.

    Just guessing, but you could try removing this line from includes/modules/sideboxes/YOURTEMPLATE/categories_css.php (approx line 53):
    PHP Code:
              and ptc.product_type_id not in  " . $document_types_list . " 
    .

      require($template->get_template_dir('tpl_categories_css.php',DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'sideboxes'). '/tpl_categories_css.php');
    
      $title = BOX_HEADING_CATEGORIES;

      $title_link = false;
    
        require($template->get_template_dir($column_box_default, DIR_WS_TEMPLATE, $current_page_base,'common') . '/' . $column_box_default);
    
    ?>
    I also checked my original file and the file on my local machine (where the menu is working properly) and there is no diference.

    Any other sugestions?

    what version of the CSS flyout do you have? ie: what's the date of the readme.txt file ... and what are the last 10 lines of the readme.txt file?

    Here is the entire readme.txt file.

    #####################################
    # #
    # CSS Flyout Category Menu #
    # #
    # by DrByte 2004-07-11 #
    # #

    Now you can have a CSS-based flyout menu for your Zen Cart categories sidebox!

    To see what it looks like, view the enclosed screenshot.jpg

    It's currently configured to go up to 5 subcategories deep, but can be set to
    however deep you desire it to go.


    ############################
    Installation
    ----------------------------
    1. Unzip the package, retaining the folder structure.

    2. Read the following notes before proceeding to copy all the files to your site,
    Before copying, take care to rename the "YOURTEMPLATE" folders to match your
    custom template's foldername.

    3. You need to enable the categories_css sidebox.
    Go to Admin->Tools->Layout Boxes Controller and enable the new "categories_css" sidebox.

    4. Of course, you don't need to upload this readme.txt or the screenshot.jpg ... :)

    ############################
