Re: Show All Products in Catagory

Here is what I ended up using in init.php:

PHP Code:


		
			
#

# Show All Mod (Based on mod by Westin Shafer for Beach Bums Inc.)

#

if ($show = $_GET['show']){

    $config['Appearance']['products_per_page'] = $show;

    $smarty->assign('show',$show);

        

}

# End Show All

I removed the {if $total_pages gt 2} condition in subcategories.tpl so navigation.tpl would always load. Then I put this at the end of navigation.tpl, after the last {/if}:

Code:

{* View All mod *}

{if $usertype eq 'C' && $products && $smarty.server.PHP_SELF ne '/manufacturers.php' && $smarty.server.PHP_SELF ne '/orders.php' }



{if $show ne ''}

<a href="{$navigation_script}">{$lng.lbl_View_paged}</a>

{elseif $total_pages gt 2}

<p class="NavigationTitle"><a href="{$navigation_script}&amp;show={$current_category.product_count}">{$lng.lbl_View_all} {$current_category.product_count} {$lng.lbl_products|lower}</a></p>

{else}

<span class="NavigationTitle">{$current_category.product_count} {$lng.lbl_products}</span>

{/if}



{else}

<p />

{/if}

{* End View All *}

Eventually, I would like to add a field where the customer can set a number of items to display on each page, but I couldn't figure out the session variables right away, and it's not high priority.

Re: Show All Products in Catagory

Does anyone know if this works with the html catalog generation?

I kind of doubt it, but you can always try it and see.

Re: Show All Products in Catagory

I have the exact same problem with one of my subcategories. It has a lot more products than other subcategories, that might be part of the issue. Anyone knows how to solve this blank page?

Secondly: I am using Smart Search from Alteredcart and noticed the "Show All" does not function on the search result pages. Anyone got that same thing working?

Locate this section in the init.php around line #329:
Code:
#
# Read config variables from Database
# This variables are used inside php scripts, not in smarty templates
#
$c_result = db_query("SELECT name, value, category FROM $sql_tbl[config] WHERE type != 'separator'");
$config = array();
if ($c_result) {
while ($row = db_fetch_row($c_result)) {
if (!empty($row[2]))
$config[$row[2]][$row[0]] = $row[1];
else
$config[$row[0]] = $row[1];
}
}

Add this right after the closing if statment:

Code:
#
# Show All Mod By Westin Shafer for Beach Bums Inc.
#
if ($_GET['show'] == 'all'){
$config['Appearance']['products_per_page'] = 500;
}

Re: Show All Products in Catagory

Working on version 4.1.10. I tried out this code and once 'View all' is clicked, all the products for a particular category are displayed. How can we make this page display the page no icons and view all link just like the other pages?

This is suck, a very simple feature!

Re: Show All Products in Catagory

I guess this is not one of the feature that X-cart can have. Try other shopping cart that might be a better chance.

Re: Show All Products in Catagory

Has anyone managed to get the "View all products" function working on version 4.3?

Cheers

Re: Show All Products in Catagory

Hi,

Anyone got it working or share the code pls?

Thanks,

Re: Show All Products in Catagory

I got this working in 4.3.2 like this;

after init.php (approx. line 471)

Code:

#

# Read config variables from Database

# This variables are used inside php scripts, not in smarty templates

#

$c_result = db_query("SELECT name, value, category FROM $sql_tbl[config] WHERE type != 'separator'");

$config = array();

if ($c_result) {

    while ($row = db_fetch_row($c_result)) {

        if (!empty($row[2]))

            $config[$row[2]][$row[0]] = $row[1];

        else

            $config[$row[0]] = $row[1];

    }

}

I added (based on Westin Shafer's mod):

Code:

#

# Show All Mod By Westin Shafer for Beach Bums Inc.

#

if ($_GET['show'] == 'all'){

$config['Appearance']['products_per_page'] = 999;

}



#

# Show Less Mod JLR Entertainment LLC.

#

if ($_GET['show'] == 'less'){

$config['Appearance']['products_per_page'] = 6;

}



if ($_GET['show'] == '12'){

$config['Appearance']['products_per_page'] = 12;

}



if ($_GET['show'] == '24'){

$config['Appearance']['products_per_page'] = 24;

}



if ($_GET['show'] == '36'){

$config['Appearance']['products_per_page'] = 36;

}

Then in customer/main/navigation.tpl I changed it to look like this (thanks to pcparts #35 entry):

Code:

{* $Id: navigation.tpl,v 1.16.2.1 2006/06/16 10:47:41 max Exp $ *}

{assign var="navigation_script" value=$navigation_script|amp}

{if $total_pages gt 2}

<div id="navigation">

<ul class="navigation_pages">

    <li class="NavigationTitle">{$lng.lbl_result_pages}:</li>

    {** View All Add on **}

{if $smarty.server.PHP_SELF ne '/manufacturers.php' && $smarty.server.PHP_SELF ne '/admin/orders.php' && $smarty.server.PHP_SELF ne '/orders.php' }

<li><a href="{$navigation_script}&amp;show=all">View All</a> </li>

{/if}

{** End View All**}

{if $current_super_page gt 1}

    <li><a class="larrow2" href="{$navigation_script}&amp;page={math equation="page-1" page=$start_page}" title="First Page"></a></li>

{/if}

{section name=page loop=$total_pages start=$start_page}

    <li><a class="larrow" href="{$navigation_script}&amp;page={math equation="page-1" page=$navigation_page}" title="Previous Page"></a></li>

{/if}

{/if}

{if %page.index% eq $navigation_page}

    <li class="NavigationLinkSel" title="{$lng.lbl_current_page|escape}: #{%page.index%}">{%page.index%}</li>

{else}

{if %page.index% ge 100}

{assign var="suffix" value="Wide"}

{else}

{assign var="suffix" value=""}

{/if}

    <li class="NavigationLink{$suffix}"><a href="{$navigation_script}&amp;page={%page.index%}" title="{$lng.lbl_page|escape} #{%page.index%}">{%page.index%}</a><img src="{$ImagesDir}/spacer.gif" alt="" /></li>

{/if}

{if %page.last%}

{math equation="pages-1" pages=$total_pages assign="total_pages_minus"}

{if $navigation_page lt $total_super_pages*$config.Appearance.max_nav_pages}

    <li><a class="rarrow" href="{$navigation_script}&amp;page={math equation="page+1" page=$navigation_page}" title="Next Page"></a></li>

{/if}

{/if}

{/section}

{if $current_super_page lt $total_super_pages}

    <li><a class="rarrow2"href="{$navigation_script}&amp;page={math equation="page+1" page=$total_pages_minus}" title="Last Page"></a></li>

{/if}

</ul>

</div>

{if $usertype ne "C"}<p />{/if}

{else}



<div id="navigation">

<ul class="navigation_pages">

    <li class="NavigationTitle">{$lng.lbl_result_pages}:</li>

    {** View Less Add on **}

{if $smarty.server.PHP_SELF ne '/manufacturers.php' && $smarty.server.PHP_SELF ne '/admin/orders.php' && $smarty.server.PHP_SELF ne '/orders.php' }

<li><a href="{$navigation_script}&amp;show=less">&nbsp;6 items / page&nbsp;&nbsp;|</a></li>

<li><a href="{$navigation_script}&amp;show=12">&nbsp;12 items / Page&nbsp;&nbsp;|</a></li>

<li><a href="{$navigation_script}&amp;show=24">&nbsp;24 items / Page&nbsp;&nbsp;|</a></li>

{/if}

{** End View less**}

</ul>

</div>

{if $usertype ne "C"}<p />{/if}





{/if}

It's basically #35 codes as a list (not a table) and I added an else statement that will allow the user to change page back to 6,12,24 once they are in the 'view all' state. (I wanted to add the 36 as is prepped in the init.php file but my client thought it was too many options.) I changed it to a list instead of table, so I had more leeway styling the arrows as css backgrounds with hover states. So FYI, this has to be styled with CSS and background images.

my code for that is:

Code:

#navigation {

    width: 100%;

    height: 40px;

}



ul.navigation_pages {

    clear: both;

    width: 100%;

    padding-left: 10px;    

    text-transform: uppercase;

    font: bold 80% Times, "Times New Roman", Georgia, s

}



li.NavigationTitle, li.NavigationLinkSel {

    color: #ff007e;

    }



ul.navigation_pages li a.rarrow, ul.navigation_pages li a.rarrow:visited  {

    display: block;

    width: 10px;

    height: 15px;

    text-align: center;

    background: transparent url(images/rarrow.gif) no-repeat 0 2px;

}



ul.navigation_pages li a.rarrow:hover  {

    background: transparent url(images/rarrowov.gif) no-repeat 0 2px;

}



ul.navigation_pages li a.larrow, ul.navigation_pages li a.larrow:visited  {

    display: block;

    width: 10px;

    height: 15px;

    text-align: center;

    background: transparent url(images/larrow.gif) no-repeat 0 2px;

}



ul.navigation_pages li a.larrow:hover  {

    background: transparent url(images/larrowov.gif) no-repeat 0 2px;

}





ul.navigation_pages li a.rarrow2, ul.navigation_pages li a.rarrow2:visited  {

    display: block;

    width: 10px;

    height: 15px;

    text-align: center;

    background: transparent url(images/rarrow_2.gif) no-repeat 0 2px;

}



ul.navigation_pages li a.rarrow2:hover  {

    background: transparent url(images/rarrow_2ov.gif) no-repeat 0 2px;

}    



ul.navigation_pages li a.larrow2, ul.navigation_pages li a.larrow2:visited  {

    display: block;

    width: 10px;

    height: 15px;

    margin-right: 10px;

    text-align: center;

    background: transparent url(images/larrow_2.gif) no-repeat 0 2px;

}



ul.navigation_pages li a.larrow2:hover  {

    background: transparent url(images/larrow_2ov.gif) no-repeat 0 2px;

}



#navigation ul.navigation_pages li a {

    font-size: 100%;

    

    

}

ul.navigation_pages li {

    float: left;

    margin-right: 10px;

    height: 20px;

}

This should be different for everyone...

Ultimately, it would be nice if the view all status could be in a dropdown menu and if the products per page could be configured from the admin side instead of being hardcoded in like that, but... I'll save that for rainier days.

Re: Show All Products in Catagory

If you do not want to go with the View All in the stock navigation.tpl file add this to the the file just before the final {/strip}

Code:

 

{if $smarty.server.PHP_SELF ne '/manufacturers.php' && $smarty.server.PHP_SELF ne '/admin/orders.php' && $smarty.server.PHP_SELF ne '/orders.php' }

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="{$navigation_script}&amp;show=all">View All</a>

{/if}

This will put the "View All" three spaces to the right of the next arrow.

Result pages: 1 2 3 4 5 > View All

Dont forget the code in the init.php file from post before this post.

Re: Show All Products in Catagory

Works Great thanks!!!

I am a little confused... which file does the above code go? Also, I am working on 4.3.2, the init.php file has 874 lines... does the init.php code still need to be placed around line 471?

Re: Show All Products in Catagory

BCSE has a free View All mod.. I downloaded it yesterday and the instructions for v4.3 installation were actually the v4.1 instructions.. I emailed them and they promptly provided me with the correct instructions. So I am not sure if they have also, since, updated the zip file for the mod or not. But it was super easy to install and works wonderfully!

Re: Show All Products in Catagory

This is great quick mod that even works with 4.5.4
