Dynamic Filter [Support Thread]

[philip937]

Hi Phil - I was replying to Dynamic Filter [Support Thread] and not to Sorting Manufacturers on Dynamic Filter Sidebox . Sorry I didn't realize the title could be revised.

I am trying to install "Dynamic Filter v1.0" in a perfectly working Zen 1.5.1. I am having a terrible time trying to figure out what I am doing wrong!

Following is the error I am getting, plus a nice white page on a previously working test site.

[23-Feb-2013 13:46:13] PHP Fatal error:  Cannot redeclare zen_create_random_value() (previously declared in 
/home/content/***/html/cart/includes/functions/functions_general.php:626) in 
/home/content/***/html/cart/includes/functions/password_funcs.php on line 86 

I had installed Products Listing Sorter v1.1 and I thought that was conflicting with Dynamic Filter v1.0. So I removed it and I am still getting the above error.

I have followed exactly as per the instructions.

DrByte replied saying that I have to merge the files in /includes/functions/functions_general.php

As I am looking at the /includes/functions/functions_general.php file from Dynamic Filter v1.0 mod and comparing it to the original file of my working site, there is a vast amount code changes. And I don't think it's just a matter of doing a merge with some line of code.

There is a lot of line of code otherwise, I would have copied it here.

And I can't figure out where to start looking for other errors, if any?

I am stuck.

What files did dynamic filter override on your install?

If I remember correctly on mine te main two were the functions general and the default filter (I think)

Both I think were out of date from the 1.5.1 files ment they needed merging instead of simply replacing.

Did you try using the clean 1.5.1 functions general file with DrBytes updated and merged function which affects dynamic filter in the post with link I made above?

Failing this its got to be either a mod somewhere conflicting or you haven't merged a file correctly somewhere.

Might be worth fully removing dynamic filter and starting over just to double check?

I can confirm that I have it working fine on 1.5.1 the only change I had to make was the functions general code in that post (but this was just to rectify warnings not because it wasn't working) which is why I think you have something wrong going on
