Hello:
I've read for but have not hit my target question so here goes. When I use the admin to create and populate a new category all goes well. I select a picture and that uploads... So I thought. When I view the category as a customer would the picture is no where in sight. Am I over looking the obvious?

Tons of possibilites here. Are you storing the images in your file system or database? Are you pulling the images from your server, hard drive or remote server?

Ok Under "Images Location" in Admin Area Category Icons are stored under "File Systems" and the path is "/usr/local/4admin/apache/vhosts/pugwear.com/httpdocs/cart/images"
"Allow to store images only in the directory specified here*: " is CHECKED
"File size limit (bytes)**;" = 0

Okay category #32 has a graphic assigned to it. Below is a screen shot of my FTP showing the image.

-rw-rw-rw- 1 apache fadmin 32834 Jan 10 17:37 c_32.jpg

I do have the permissions set to RD/WT

Is there any coding dump to be helpful?

All help is much welcome

Oh you are talking about CATEGORY icons...sorry, thought you were talking about product icons. You want the category icon to show up above the products, next to the description?

If I am correct the thinking was to upload a picture associated with your category in my world it world be a graphic of the shirt example tee, denim so on.

When I add a PRODUCT the picture is fine and shows the customer it's the PRODUCT graphic that is giving me the S**ts.

It's not the PRODUCT picture it is the CATEGORY picture...Sorry..

Ok, you will want to edit your subcategories.tpl. Look for this line of code:

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

{/if}

replace it with this:

{if ($navigation_page eq "")||($navigation_page eq "1")}

<table width="100%"><tr><td>[img]{if $current_category.icon_url}{$current_category.icon_url}{else}{$xcart_web_dir}/icon.php?categoryid={$cat}{/if}[/img]</td>
<td>{$current_category.description|regex_replace:"/[\n]/":"
"}</td></tr>
</table>{/if}

Let me know how it works.
