Hi amdad,

please find version v0.9.4r3 BETA on sourceforge. Only difference to 0.9.4r2 is the file "[YOUR_ZC_INSTALLATION]/includes/index_filters/bookx_filter.php", so you really only need to replace this one file and it should fix your problem No. 1.

Sorry about that :-/

Concerning your problem 2, I cannot reproduce the situation. Could you try to use another template and see if the boxes also move around with that template? Secondly you could try to temporarily rename "stylesheet_bookx.css" inside your template folder/css/ to something like "DISABLEstylesheet_bookx.css". This should disable all CSS styling like "floats" etc. of BookX, so you could see if that resolves them problem, and then we know it is a CSS problem together with your template.

Otherwise I would need to see the problematic page online somewhere.

Regards,
p.

Hi philou,
Appreciate for your reply, and best of all everything on the site is working perfectly except the filters.
But i am a little confused with your solution, as the only files on the link are the Do i just over write and merge the relevant files or is there any other file to be worked upon

thanks a ton in advance

Hi desmat,

now that 0.9.4r3 is ready, I have removed the other previous downloads. Yes, you should replace all the files. Some files need manual modifications, most of which should already have been made on your shop, since you are upgrading from 0.9.3
Please check the included documentation.
I am a bit worried though since you got an error when upgrading to 0.9.3 and we didn't fix it at that time, so let's hope that doesn't cause bigger problems now.

hi philou

great work you are doing,, i get
installed the latest version
all the filters work correctly except for the publishers,
if i use the filter i get the following error "WARNING: An Error occurred, please refresh the page and try again."

als i quite do not understand, that the filters have to be applied in genre, series and author, to get a cascaded filter, any other way does not work

help like always will be appreciated

Thanks for all the time you are investing

Dear philou
Another error that i discovered

if there is only one book in a series, or author, or genre ( publisher not working so cannot comment on that ) then the book is displayed but in the breadcrumb the topmost category is displayed and the listing shows number of books in the top most category, check out http://www.passionfruit.co.in
try any of the under and you will find the error
genre >> History & Civics, Geography
series >> VI to VIII
author >> Anupam Magon

Hi Desmat,

it's a silly bug I introduced in the first upload of 0.9.4beta. Please download the revised 0.9.4r3 from here or sourceforge:

BookX – Product Type Book - Version: 0.9.4r3
0.9.4revision3 fixes a Fatal Error when filtering for publisher via sidebox filter. Only difference to 0.9.4r2 is the file "[YOUR_ZC_INSTALLATION]/includes/index_filters/bookx_filter.php". If you had installed 0.9.4r2 then you can simply exchange this one file and you have the fix.

Best regards,
p.
