olsonsp4c 0 Posted December 17, 2008 (edited) This is the support forum for the Simple Categories Menu addon: http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/6422 This will put a very simple horizontal link menu of your top level categories in your header or any other place you might desire for placement. It is EXTREMELY simple, but then, I enjoy simplicity and functionality. One step and you are done.

olsonsp4c 0 Posted January 11, 2009 hello scott new question : when i log in, the simple menu categorie loose session id how to fix that? thanx I apologize, but it doesn't do this on my store, so if I can't reproduce it, it is difficult to fix. Have you checked to verify that your cookie settings are set up properly in the config... both http and https should read "www.your-domain.com" without the "http://" - some servers might want it ".your-domain.com" or "your-domain.com" too... It might be helpful to know specifically what is happening too. Describe it step by step...

lbretth 0 Posted January 18, 2009 I've installed your add on and got it working perfectly. I have added a stylesheet class to it which has set the font, size, background etc correctly but for some reason I cannot get the standard text colour to change in line with the CSS at all. Any ideas? Cheers, Luke Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coopco 8 Posted January 21, 2009 Hi Scott Can the categories be split across 2 or more lines? My categories are Women's Basques | Women's Bras | Women's Bustiers | Women's Camisoles | Women's G Strings | Women's Panties | Women's Thongs | Men's Boxers | Men's Briefs | Men's T-shirts | Gift Vouchers | Specials The Coopco Underwear Shop If you live to be 100 years of age, that means you have lived for 36,525 days.

It would mean creating a new line using the counter in the loop... if you know you have 9 categories and you want the line break to be after the 4th category then it would be something like: <!-- BOF: Simple Categories Menu //--> <table width="100%" border="0" align="center" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td height="0"> <table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <?php $temp = count($cat_name); for ($t=0; $t<$temp; $t++) { ?> <td align="center"><?php echo '<a href="index.php?cPath=' . $cat_id[$t] .
