Dynamic Filter [Support Thread]

[DrByte]

Thank you
I changed the cote to the fix dr byte posted to the thread, the error messages reduiced, but there are already one error message at the top of the page, for each search option choose, :

Warning: trim() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in /home/o112445/public_html/includes/functions/functions_general.php on line 63

when I choose a category, and search,, the error message is one time, and when I choose a category and an other option like size, the error message is repeated two times at the top of the page;

thank you

Sounds like serious problems with your customized code and all the addons you've installed.

Thank you for your reply;
But That is so hard for me to merge all files of the site with the original !

[DrByte]

Perhaps.

But since the problem doesn't happen with original code, the most efficient way to find out where your specific problem exists is to do the comparison.
Thankfully automated tools like WinMerge make it simpler.

I have made a lot of changes and added a lot of addons to my sites (multisite addon also), from 2 or 3 years,
The update is made by someone who I found at freelancers site in india (I haven't a good experience with that),

So should I check all changes and for that I must remove and reinstalle each addon !

thanks

If you upgraded to 1.5.0 from any other version, you need to check EVERY add-on because some are not yet compatible. You probably should double check them all anyway but absolutely if you moved to 1.5.

I ended up uninstalling the Dynamic Filter completely and reverting the functions_general.php file back to the zen-cart original because my CPU usage went through the roof. It was up to 88% yesterday. I'm lucky my hosting company is being really understanding and letting me sort through the trouble. If it isn't the DF mod that drove it up then it will most likely be something in IH4 because those were the last two mods installed when the CPU usage spiked.

Any other ideas about what it could be are greatly appreciated.

Blessings,

CPU spikes are often caused by a "while" loop that's iterating through database results without specifying a MoveNext call ... resulting in an endless loop that spins out of control until the server kills it for running too long or killing CPU.

Thank you, I just wish I understood what that means, .

After removing the DF mod the cpu usage dropped back down to 3% so something in that mod was mis-configured. I think I misunderstood part of the directions and installed an extra jscrip.jquery file (it said to download it and rename it...). I'm just guessing though.

I re-installed IH4 and it seems to not be affecting the CPU negatively at all.

I'll live with the default filter for the time being.

Thank you!
