- - Subcategories Icon (https://forum.x-cart.com/showthread.php?t=6378)

I am trying to get this mod working for my site (www.eArtPark.com). For some reason, neither the description or product counts are displaying. What am I doing wrong here?

Strange Error with the category icon script

I've tried to implemt the subcategories.tpl on my site. I am running 4.0.8 in test mode at the moment.

Everything seems fine, I can click on a category on the left menu to open up and view the sub-categories...where I can see the category icons displaying fine...but the strange thing is this...above the category icons I can see TWO navigation paths as shown below one on top of the other , there should only be one....but i don't know how to fix it within the script.

Any thoughts on how i can fix this ?????

Thx Peter

Fixed My Problem

I managed to figure out my problem, the answer to my posting is this

Within the subcategories.tpl .... remove the 1st line.

{ include file="location.tpl" }

Great Mod, thanks 27 stars. Works a treat on 3.5.X

Test under Image

Hi
Any one knows how I can get my text center under the Icon?
Thanks :?

Change align=left to align=center :)

Similar, but hopefully simpler situation:

4.0.13 out-of-box subcategories.tpl has the parent category icon showing up IF THERE ARE SUBCATEGORIES and DOES NOT show the category icon for the lowest level subcategories.

I need this to work in reverse - If there are subcategories, DO NOT SHOW the icon. If there are no subcategories (Lowest level) SHOW the icon.

Seems like that should be the default behavior anyway. Iam chasing my tail going through the template trying different things and can't get it to work. ANY IDEAS?

just change

{if $tmp} [img]{if $current_category.icon_url}{$current_category.icon _url}{else}{$xcart_web_dir}/icon.php?categoryid={$cat}{/if}[/img] {/if}

to

{if ne $tmp} [img]{if $current_category.icon_url}{$current_category.icon _url}{else}{$xcart_web_dir}/icon.php?categoryid={$cat}{/if}[/img] {/if}

in skin1/customer/main/subcategories.tpl template

Thanks Anton -

I ended up working through it and incorporated the mod in the forum also. Here is what it looks like:

Code:

{* $Id: subcategories.tpl,v 1.43.2.2 2004/10/07 07:08:51 max Exp $ *} 

{if !$subcategories}

        [img]{$xcart_web_dir}/icon.php?categoryid={$cat}[/img]

{/if}

{if $active_modules.Bestsellers ne "" and $config.Modules.bestsellers_menu ne "Y"} 





 

{include file="modules/Bestsellers/bestsellers.tpl"} 

{/if} 





 

{if ($navigation_page eq "")||($navigation_page eq "1")}{$current_category.description|regex_replace:"/[\n]/":"

"}



{/if} 

{capture name=dialog} 

{assign var="tmp" value="0"} 

{section name=cat_num loop=$subcategories} 

{if $subcategories[cat_num].category}{assign var="tmp" value="1"}

{/if} 

{/section} 



{section name=cat_num loop=$subcategories} 

{ if %cat_num.first% } 

<table width="100%" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0"> 

{/if} 

{ if %cat_num.index% is div by 2} 

<tr> 

{/if} 

<td align="center" valign="bottom"> 

<a href="home.php?cat={ $subcategories[cat_num].categoryid }"> 

[img]{$xcart_web_dir}/icon.php?categoryid={$subcategories[cat_num].categoryid}[/img]</a>

 

<a href="home.php?cat={ $subcategories[cat_num].categoryid }"> 

<font size="1">{ $subcategories[cat_num].category|escape }</font></a>

 

{ $subcategories[cat_num].description|escape } 

{if $config.Appearance.count_products eq "Y"} 

{if $subcategories[cat_num].product_count} 

{ $subcategories[cat_num].product_count } {$lng.lbl_items} 

{elseif $subcategories[cat_num].subcategory_count}

({ $subcategories[cat_num].subcategory_count } Subcategories) 

{/if} 

{/if} 

</td> 

{ if %cat_num.last% } 

</tr> 

</table> 

{/if} 

{/section} 



{if $tmp and $products ne "" } 

<BR clear="left"> 

<HR size="1" noshade> 

{/if} 

{if $products} 

{if $sort_fields} 

<DIV align="right">{include file="main/search_sort_by.tpl" sort_fields=$sort_fields selected=$search_prefilled.sort_field direction=$search_prefilled.sort_direction url="home.php?cat=`$cat`&"}</DIV> 

{/if} 

{if $total_pages gt 2} 



 

{ include file="customer/main/navigation.tpl" } 

{/if} 

<HR size="1" width="100%"> 

{include file="customer/main/products.tpl" products=$products} 

{/if} 

{if $products eq "" and $tmp eq "0"} 

{$lng.txt_no_products_in_man} 

{/if} 

{/capture} 

{include file="dialog.tpl" title=$current_category.category content=$smarty.capture.dialog extra="width=100%"} 

{if $products eq ""} 

{if $f_products ne ""} 





 

{include file="customer/main/featured.tpl"} 

{/if} 

{/if} 

{ include file="customer/main/navigation.tpl" }

This works perfectly for me - if there are subcategories, show the name and logo in 2 column format, NO image for the parent category. If no subcategories, show the category image.

Hey Great Mod.

Have a question regarding the product count and warning message.

I've managed to remove the products count from my tpl file but still have a message at the bottom of the table:

"No matching products found"

Tried removing the some of the product code below the subcat table to get rid of it but didn't work.

Heres what my code looks like after the revisions.

Code:
