The Categories Images categories are sorted by the categories Sort Order, the same as the categories in the categories menu.

I have the same problem that user (Locolacolina) in the spanish instalation (Couldn't find constant MODULE_FRONT_PAGE_TEXT_MAIN_ESPANOL), I solve it changing in the admin (Location / Languages) from (Español) to (espanol), but: it´s possible change it in the module install to change variable (Language name) to (Language directory)?. And Who?. Thanks.

Yes, the language name needs to match the name on the language directory. This is standard osCommerce. The problem is that your language pack does this wrong. I suggest that you contact the person who put up the language pack and ask them to fix it.

I want the banner (rotator) to show on all the pages, I have added the below to all the pages before the heading but it is not working

 

<div class="contentContainer">

 

<?php echo $oscTemplate->getBlocks('front_page'); ?>

 

</div>

 

What do I need to do to make this banner show on all the pages on my shop

The banner rotator is restricted to the front page by design. If you want it on other pages, you'll need to modify or remove this line:

     if ($PHP_SELF == 'index.php' && $cPath == '') {

If you remove the line, remove the corresponding } as well (line 91). Removing the line may cause errors in the Admin.

Thanks Jim, I removed it and no error in admin too :)

 

Another question - how can I add the search box to the breadcrumbs bar?

I'm glad to hear that it worked out for you.

 

I have never put a search box in with the breadcrumbs. You would be better off asking a question in the general support forum.

That is a bug. I'll fix it and put out a new release. If you want to fix yours, change this code in includes/modules/front_page.php (Line 56) from this:

 

       for ($id = 1; $id <= $this->featured_products; $id++) {

to this:

 

       for ($id = 1; $id < $this->count; $id++) {

Thanks for the bug report.

Hello Jim,

 

The modular front page is brilliant, so thank you.

 

Not to be too greedy but I have two questions that I was hoping you could answer

 

1. I have found that whilst using the box style float for the category images that the category text title will abutt onto the end of the category image and not be placed just below it so that it does not fit into the category boxes.

 

I am a newbie and have had a thorough read of yur instructions and tried to fix this problem in the css.stylsheet (catalog/ext/modules/front_page/categories_images/stylesheet.css) to see if I can fix it but to no avail unfortuneately. Do you have any advice on how I move the category text title below the category image so that it will fit into the box?

 

2. I have tried to change the colour of the border surrounding the floating categories to a light greeny colour by modifying the categories_images/stylesheet.css as below:

 

.imageBox {
 width: 110px;  /* Width of each Category */
 height: 280px;  /* Height of each Category */
 padding: 5px 5px 5px 25px;  /* Padding between the category contents and the border */
 border: 3px inset #1fbfa5;  /* Border around each Category -- See the User's Manual */
 margin: 5px;  /* Margin between the Category border and other objects */
 font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;
 font-size: 12pt;
 background: #ffffff;  /* Background color of each Category */
 float: left;  /* Don't change this */
}

.center {
 text-align: center;
}

.module_contents {
 padding: 5px 5px 5px 25px;
 font-size: 13pt;
 line-height: 1.2;
}

.category_link_top {
 font-weight: bold;
 text-decoration: underline;
 color: #1fbfa5;
}

.category_link_sub {
 font-weight: normal;
 text-decoration: underline;
 color: #000000;
 font-size: 11pt;
}

.spacer {
 margin-top: 10px;
}

.link_column {
 text-indent: -0.5em;
 display: block;
}

 

Initially this had the desired effect but once the mouse hovers over it returns back to the dark blue original colour and remains the same. Do you have any idea what I should be looking at to change the colour permenantly?

 

Many thanks

 

Chris

1. I have found that whilst using the box style float for the category images that the category text title will abutt onto the end of the category image and not be placed just below it so that it does not fit into the category boxes.

This is a common problem with CSS. Try this: Find this code in catalog/includes/modules/front_page/categories_images.php (Lines 183-185)

 

               } //if (MODULE_FRONT_PAGE_CATEGORIES_IMAGES_SHOW_SUBCATEGORIES

               $categories_content .= '</div>' . "\n";

and add the following just after that:

 

               $categories_content .= '<div class="clear"></div>' . "\n";

Then add the following to your stylesheet.css:

 

.clear {
 clear: both;
 display: block;
 overflow: hidden;
 visibility: hidden;
 width: 0;
 height: 0;
}

 

2. I have tried to change the colour of the border surrounding the floating categories to a light greeny colour by modifying the categories_images/stylesheet.css as below:

<snipped>

The box color is also set by the Javascript. See Line 143 in the categories_images.php file:

                 $categories_content .= ' onmouseover="set_CSS(\'box_' . $box_number . '\',\'borderColor\',\'#aabbdd\')" onmouseout="set_CSS(\'box_' . $box_number . '\',\'borderColor\',\'#182d5c\')" ';

The first color is the mouseover, the second is the color it returns to after the mouse has moved on. I really need to turn these into module settings, but for now you can just edit the file.

This is not a bug, just a missing feature. The Featured Products module currently only displays the products in the order that you set them. I intend to add a random feature to a future release, but this involves quite a bit of additional code, so it may be a while.

I am getting the following error from the KissER Error Handling & Debugging Add-On regarding the Front Page Module:

 

Error: include_once(includes/functions/modules/front_page/featured.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory

File: includes/modules/front_page/featured.php

Line: 32

 

Error: include_once(): Failed opening 'includes/functions/modules/front_page/featured.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/hsphere/shared/apache/libexec/php5ext/php/')

File: includes/modules/front_page/featured.php

Line: 32

 

 

Anyone know how to solve this?

 

The module works, but for some reason I am getting the error above.

Are you getting that error in your Admin? That would mean that the file is missing, and the module will not work without it.

In Admin the module looks fine and works fine. I can actually see the file in the error message's specified location within my directory.

 

I do remember commenting out "featured products" or "just added" via //, but I don't remember where I did it or which one I did so it's been hard to find :-" .

In includes/modules/front_page/featured.php, you should have the following code starting at Line 37:

 

     // Include the function that is used to add products in the Admin
     if ($PHP_SELF == 'modules.php') {
       include_once (DIR_WS_FUNCTIONS . 'modules/front_page/featured.php');
     }

If yours doesn't match, try the latest version of that file.

Hello Jim

 

Thank you for getting back to me.

 

Your solution for the colour change to the border has solved my problem, thank you.

 

Unfortunately, the solution for the category title hasn't worked unless I am not following your directions correctly. I have copied the whole of the categories_images.php with your amendments in it. Have I followed this correctly?

Here is the change to the stylesheet.css:

/*  Categories in the Categories Images box  */
.imageBox {
 width: 110px;  /* Width of each Category */
 height: 280px;  /* Height of each Category */
 padding: 5px 5px 5px 25px;  /* Padding between the category contents and the border */
 border: 3px inset #1fbfa5;  /* Border around each Category -- See the User's Manual */
 margin: 5px;  /* Margin between the Category border and other objects */
 font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;
 font-size: 12pt;
 background: #ffffff;  /* Background color of each Category */
 float: left;  /* Don't change this */
}

.clear { 
 clear: both; 
 display: block; 
 overflow: hidden; 
 visibility: hidden; 
 width: 0; 
 height: 0; 
}

.center {
 text-align: center;
}

.module_contents {
 padding: 5px 5px 5px 25px;
 font-size: 13pt;
 line-height: 1.2;
}

.category_link_top {
 font-weight: bold;
 text-decoration: underline;
 color: #1fbfa5;
}

.category_link_sub {
 font-weight: normal;
 text-decoration: underline;
 color: #000000;
 font-size: 11pt;
}

.spacer {
 margin-top: 10px;
}

.link_column {
 text-indent: -0.5em;
 display: block;
}

 

The effect of theses changes have made all the floating category boxes line up vertically on my front page one on top of the other with the category title still abutting with the image and not fitting into the box.

 

Have I carried out the instructions correctly? Do you have any other suggestions?

 

Thanks

 

Chris
