PriceSlider - filter categories by price range
Hi all,
I'd like to introduce our new X-Cart module - we think it will add to many stores' buying experience in a new, fantastic way. PriceSlider is a small, fast mod that provides an extra feature for your category pages: a draggable slider shows the number of products available between two prices. http://www.elegantxmods.com/forum/priceslider_screenshot.gif Features include:
PriceSlider is available now for just $9.99, and has been tested on all major browsers. Find out more and purchase here. http://www.elegantxmods.com/forum/priceslider_admin.gif

Re: PriceSlider - filter categories by price range
Hi John,
Nice mod ... Personnaly I think it would be more interesting that if mod worked the other way around: from 1000$ to 1$ (price decrease). Best regards, Gijs |

Re: PriceSlider - filter categories by price range
Hi Gijs, thanks for the feedback.
That's an interesting idea: it's always seemed 'natural' that the left-hand side represents the lower end of the scale while the right-hand side represents the higher end. Is this a common idea? I've never seen it before.

Re: PriceSlider - filter categories by price range
I have always seen it low on the left, high on the right - think it would screw people up if it was the other way around.

Hi John,
Quote:
What I mean by that is the following (lets say you have 10 items): a) From small to big: it shows product from 0 to 1000 $ So when you're on 1$ dollar it will show all 10 items When you're on, let's say 100 $, il will show the 3 items which are more expensive then 100 $ b) From big down to small: It will show the items which are cheaper then 100 $. And that's the point I find interesting. Best regards, Gijs |

Re: PriceSlider - filter categories by price range
That's a good point - and that's why there are two 'grabbers' - one on each side, so to see only lower-priced items, you just pull the right grabber over to the left.

Re: PriceSlider - filter categories by price range
I noticed while in a category like books, where there are no products listed, the slider indicates there are no products in this price category.
I think you should disable the mod when there are no product listings. I find it distracting to see the slider when there are no products.. just my 20 cents...

Re: PriceSlider - filter categories by price range
Many thanks for the great feedback Gijs!
And thanks also to Rene - you're right, there's no reason why PriceSlider should appear if there are no products within that page - so the template file has been modified to take this into account and can be seen at the demo site.

Re: PriceSlider - filter categories by price range
Installed this on behalf of a client, based on v4.1.8
It lists all the products in the price range, instead of just the products in the price range AND particular category. {$cat} is not getting passed to search.php - Any ideas why?
