Re: Manufacturers sidebox showing all products

Yeah, my problem is that my manufacturers side box just decides to show all the items in the shop, not the manufacturers products.

When i change back to default template, it works... I have compared files etc.. and still no clue what problem is. I have the exact prob with my search_header..(work in default template)

Please please help. I am spending way too long on this.. Its driving me up the wall.

Re: Manufacturers sidebox showing all products

Do you have any manufacturer with more than 1 Product?

By default, the Manufacturer sidebox will only show those with Products ... Configuration ... Maximum Values ...

Manufacturers List - Verify Product Exist
Verify that at least 1 product exists and is active for the manufacturer name to show

Note: When this feature is ON it can produce slower results on sites with a large number of products and/or manufacturers
0= off 1= on

Then, if there is only 1 Product for the Manufacturer and you have the Skip Product Listing on Categories with 1 Product you will go to the Product _info page ...
Configuration ... Layout Settings ...

Skip 1-prod Categories
Skip single-product categories
If this option is set to True, then if the customer clicks on a link to a category which only contains a single item, then Zen Cart will take them directly to that product-page, rather than present them with another link to click in order to see the product.
Default: True

Re: Manufacturers sidebox showing all products

NOTE: you just think you are seeing all the Products as you are seeing the Centerboxes ...

Re: Manufacturers sidebox showing all products

Thanks Ajeh... What an honour to have you reply to my post.

Um,,, it still wont work. I just dont understand. I have tried everything, absolutely everything to get it fixed.

Could it be because its an add on, its the Manufacturers_list add on, and when i use default template it uses the original manufacturers sidebox. Thanks again...

I could also use some help here...

Re: Manufacturers sidebox showing all products

I would get rid of the SEO/rewrites until you get this straightened out ... I do not believe that is working right and it makes fixing this a lot harder ...

If, after getting rid of the SEO/rewites things are still not working but do work in Classic Template ... then you will have to look at your add on and see what is wrong with it ...

I have not used that add on but perhaps if this is still and issue after getting rid of the SEO/rewrites then you can look in the Contributions thread on the forum ... I am pretty sure that there is one ...
