Category Drop Down SELECT Menu Sidebox Mod.

[ibezenned]

Update: Wow, this is really perplexing! I cannot see why the drop down will not follow the cPath and parent category like the CSS fly-out menu works. Of course this is coded completely different... but even when I try to hack the two together, I cannot seem to access the right part of the path to add the parent directories.

I'm starting to think that we may need to go about the programming completely different... that is unless some of the other admins can help us look :) It's a bug that's pretty bothersome to me - but not sure how much it affects everyone.

Back to the hunt!

not sure how much it affects everyone.

It affects me FOR SURE. Here is my website: ShopWalkThisWay.com. As you can see, the PRIMARY navigation when coming through the home page is this module... I also brought it up this past Jan when I noticed the problem.

I'd even chip in to help someone figure it out. Taugg, I also played with the code a bunch trying to figure out how to make it work, with no luck. It's a great idea for a mod, just needs an update.

Thanks!

Hi,

I´m using the "category drop down select menu" mod and everything is working fine. The only thing I would like to change is the position of the subcategories within the menu.

On the 'applezen' demo page this could be seen with the Level 5,6,7 subcats, but I would like just to move the first subcat a bit more to the right. Is this possible?

Thanks

Great package. I have a question and since I am setting this up for a new store, there really isn't anything for you to look at this time.

Is there a way to only have only the categories and subcategories only on the menu? I already have an idea for the rest of the links, but we only want the menu to have the categories.

Thanks

Looks great in Firefox, but in Internet Explorer it scrolls with the screen, I guess it has something to do with the css positioning

did I miss something in the install? the site is ozmparts.com

thanks for the great mod,
Steve

I finally FINALLY updated this mod, so that the cpath works correctly, so your breadcrumbs work correctly. You can see it working at the link above.

If you had 1.2 installed before you will need to delete these files first:

includes/languages/english/extra_definitions/YOUR_TEMPLATE/category_select_defines.php
includes/modules/sideboxes/YOUR_TEMPLATE/categories_select.php
includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/sideboxes/tpl_categories_select.php

Since none of these files would be overrided in an update of zen cart, I changed the folder structure. If you do not delete these first, your update won't work correctly.

I just uploaded version 1.3 today, so it may take a little while to show up in the downloads section. (in the sidebox category)

On the ZC add-on downloads page for this mod it says that it was lasted updated on Oct, 2007. Are the changes of April, 2009 listed in the previous post included in this version?
