Dynamic Filter [Support Thread]

[SPH]

There is another filter which you can see on this site similar industry to yours:

coolcarpartsonline com

It's on his homepage. Perhaps this is what you were asking about? Don't recall what filter that is, but have seen it in the downloads area.

I understand that coolcarparts has had developers do work on his site. He's a frequent poster so he might tell you what he has.

In the meantime, you might take a look at these to see if one is it...or close enough:

I actually test one of these about a year ago that looked similar to the one on coolcarparts.

You'll also have to verify that they are compatible with your version of ZC, or at least will work with it.

Maybe you can find a support thread for them with someone who posted a link to their site, to check it out.

Or maybe test one, maybe on a test site you put up somewhere.

hi,

my dynamic filter sidebox disappears on all of the product listing pages when a filter returns one result. here is an example:

http://filtersavvy.com/index.php?mai...lterWeight(lb)[]=0.49

you may have to copy paste the link into your browser

any reason this could be happening?

I installed the DF version 1.1 on version 1.5. It is functional well. Great mode, thanks. However, in the categories field, every category had been listed twice. I out put the $categories by print_() in tpl_dynamic_filter.php. It has been shown that every category had been double. Hope someone can help me to fix it.

How does the Dynamic Filter work? Where does it pull its filters from? I am doing some testing right now, and I have a category where all of the devices will have certain attributes. I have already added those attributes to at least one device.

When I look in the NARROW YOUR RESULTS sidebox, nothing comes up. I will note that we are using a host who I believe has done some customization to their template, so, there is a chance that the template may be the cause.

I just was not sure if I was not using the proper window to apply attributes to a product, so the Dynamic Filter could work. Ideally, I would like to use the combination of Dynamic Filter and Attributes to help people narrow down a product, but I don't want the attributes to show up on the product info page. People will not be applying attributes to the product before checking out. The attributes (in my case) are used more for giving more information about a product so someone could use the filter to find a product that meets a certain criteria.

Just installed this mod and I think it's great but I have a number of products that have a display only attribute - "please select".

I don't want this to display in the dynamic filter as its a way to ensure customers are force to make a choice on the product page, for example between silver or gold.

Is there any way to do this?
