adiwillow Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 sorry, to elaborate on my above post, as it wasnt clear. whats happening is that after selecting a manufacturer, each category is being displayed twice in the dropdown, yet only one of them actually works.

keithschm Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 how did you get it to work? it just greys out for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adiwillow Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 (edited) how did you get it to work? it just greys out for me well, the instructions stated to miss out all of section 2 if you already have coolmenu. This isnt the case. also, try just '/' in the var dropdownmenu_path PS my duplicated categories was down to another contrib :D Edited December 19, 2005 by adiwillow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithschm Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 yea I tried that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adiwillow Posted December 21, 2005 Share Posted December 21, 2005 Okay, i've still got a double top level category when selecting a specific manufacturer. I've got one product linked to all categories, and all subcategories, under a specific manufacturer. Ie if i select all manufacturers, all is as it should be... but if i select the specific manufacturer, then i get the top level categories duplicated in the drop down, yet one is populated, and one isnt. Any ideas? http://www.demo.cadsnet.co.uk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adiwillow Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 i've just installed this on another shop without my other contribs and got the same prob.. the top categories are repeated when selecting a manufacturer !! I've got one product linked to all categories, and all subcategories, under a specific manufacturer. Ie if i select all manufacturers, all is as it should be... but if i select the specific manufacturer, then i get the top level categories duplicated in the drop down, yet one is populated, and one isnt.

adiwillow Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 please, any hints on how you got it working? nope.. fraid not. I'm using BTS so had to install the mod slightly differently. On my second installation on a new shop the mod worked first time. Couple of tips though.. leave the dropdownmenu_path set at '/' Do ALL of the install instructions.. ignore it when it says miss out section 2 if you have coolmenu.

adiwillow Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 it seems support for this has died.. you best bet would be to try the contribution which is located on the original developers own website. It is a much improved version and an easier installation. the url is a couple of pages back on one of his posts somewhere... Beware though if you have a LOT of categories (500+ or something) the newever version is too slow to be useable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mivecxtr Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Does this contribution work with CRE loaded 6.15? The "advanced_search_result.php" file is quite different to the original oscommerce file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baiamonte Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 Something is very stranger with this contribution, because i saw on his site "http://www.euskopc.com/catalog/advanced_search_result.php?osCsid=1f2d00c9e520d178f164e46ff9d9eeef&manufacturers_id=3&categories_id=478&subcategories_id=479&keywords=&inc_subcat=1&osCsid=1f2d00c9e520d178f164e46ff9d9eeef" and the contribution works very well but any other member of this forum can do it, i try contact the contribuition writer and ask to give the files are current use but he don't want give me, so i think this contribuition must be deleted from the Oscommer site because many peoples try use and gonna be frusted, the version 2.7 DOESN'T WORK.
