Dynamic Filter [Support Thread]

[Design75]

I am running 1.5.4

This line

// bof dynamic filter 1 of 2
  include(DIR_WS_MODULES . zen_get_module_directory(FILENAME_DYNAMIC_FILTER));
// eof dynamic filter 1 of 2 

Produces this error:
[27-Jun-2015 00:04:34 EST5EDT] [client 64.7.70.206 ] PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function zen_get_module_directory() in /big/dom/xscholledresses/www/includes/classes/split_page_results.php on line 28

What is wrong?

what version of the module are you running?

[solo_400]

I'm using 1.1 version of this module and ZC 1.5.0. I have also the price range issue like 18-98, 98-178, 178-278. Can you give me some hint how to get ranges like 0-100, 100-200, 200-300 ?

thx!

Did someone solve this issue ?

Any chance of a 1.5.4 compatible version?

I apologize for being dense, but I cannot get past how to install the plugin. I've installed ZC 1.5.1 and got it working. The instruction for installing Dynamic Filter are to:

New Files
Copy the includes folder from the 'new files' folder into your store's main directory.
The files are already in the correct directory structure, so a single drag-and-drop of the folder into the root directory for the store will put the files in the correct locations.
Please do not copy the files individually - doing so often results in files being missed out!

This makes no sense to me. If I drop the includes file into the root of the my catalog dir, it will overwrite the existing includes file. Wont that destroy my who catalog? Seems like I have to do exactly what the instructions say not to do; copy each file individually.

Please advise.

I decided to copy in the files manually. The instructions say to copy the following files:

includes/modules/pages/advanced_search_result/jscript_dynamic_filter.php
includes/modules/pages/featured_products/jscript_dynamic_filter.php
includes/modules/pages/index/jscript_dynamic_filter.php
includes/modules/pages/products_all/jscript_dynamic_filter.php
includes/modules/pages/products_new/jscript_dynamic_filter.php
includes/modules/pages/specials/jscript_dynamic_filter.php

Bu these are not in the distribution. Are they no longer needed and the Docs just not updated?

When you drag&drop the includes folder from the plugin into your store, that copy operation adds files present in the plugin's includes folder into your existing includes folder. No existing files are deleted (although files of the same name will be replaced, usually with some overwrite verification).

here is a link to my amended "dynamic filter" which works with 1.5.4
http://www.tlsystems.co.uk/support/Z....2-amended.zip

I have added a folder 1.5.4 to main archive, just follow instructions for previous versions.
take a backup of any files your going to overwrite.
rename the admin folder to yours
rename the YOUR_TEMPLATE folders to your template name
upload files
import sql
and it should work.
mine does, one thing to do is add a admin menu feature to show filter including tax "yes/no".

Thanks chief,

Just saw your post! Much appreciated. Will install with new ZC154 and test.

Greetings,

Just installed chief's version for 1.5.4.

Question: I am only interested at this time in having the Dynamic Filter sidebox function on the product listing page (main_page=index). Do I still need to install the files in the includes\modules\pages? These seem to be for the search, featured, all, new and specials pages...

Thanks!

No, you do not need them if you only want to use the filtering on the products listing.

Thanks Design75,

I have installed, except for those files. Filter sidebox displays with the correct filters and seem to be working!
