Toby Adams's "Add Bullet Image"


Hunkah

Recommended Posts

I am looking to include this contribution into my OSC, but it no longer works.

 

Here is the link to the Contribution:

Add Bullet Images

 

Here are the instructions:

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Open catalog/includes/boxes/categories.php
2. Find the line (around line 20) that reads $categories_string .= ' <a href="';
3. BEFORE this line, add the lines contained in code.txt
4. Copy the .gif files to the catalog/images directory

 

Here is the code:

// BOF: Add Bullet Images v1.0

   if (tep_has_category_subcategories($counter)) {
    if ( 
($id) && (in_array($counter, $id)) ) {
         $categories_string .= '<img src="images/cat_arrow_down.gif" align="absmiddle"> ';
       } else {
         $categories_string .= '<img src="images/cat_arrow_right.gif" align="absmiddle"> ';
       }
} else {
  $categories_string .= '<img src="images/cat_arrow_other.gif" align="absmiddle"> ';
}

// EOF: Add Bullet Images v1.0

 

There are also images included to be put into the images folder.

 

Can someone please help re-code this so that it works again? I have been trying to use the latest snap shot to see all the current upgrades. Only this contribution no longer works.

This is an older catagories.php that I found kicking around in my test install of OSC.

I am not sure if it is a modded one, but it has the required info:

Thankyou for any help you can offer.

Can anyone rewrite this? I don't know how myself.

 

This is one of those cosmetic things that need to be included into the main build. It looks so much nicer when this is in. TRUST ME!

 

This looks so nice, that you will wonder why you have gone so long with out it!
