Jim

I'd purchase but I need this module to enable me to add categories in grid view, not list view, on the home page; is that possible?

WARNING: expect lots of hours & work to customize this to your site if you are using anything other than the default theme. This is an overpriced module.

I bought it back on 12/15 and have gone back & forth with Jimmy numerous times (he is now ignoring my emails), and there are still many bugs. We are at the point now where only the articles and categories work on my site, and these pages (content) don't even appear in my XML sitemap.

Jimmy promised to help and did only when I posted a negative review on this forum. He help to build the basic functionality on my site and has since ignored me when I pointed out the issue with the XML sitemap.

If I had to do this all over again, I should have hired an experienced developer or used another module. I would not recommend this to anyone not willing to put forth the extensive work this requires to work on your site.

Jimmy,

I purchased this mod recently. It works fine until it is combined with http://www.opencart.com/index.php?route ... ber&page=3.

When the two vQmods run at the same time I get the following error: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ')' in ......./public_html/vqmod/vqcache/vq2-catalog_controller_common_header.php on line 323

the error causes it to hang up after the vq2-catalog_controller_common_header.php file at line 284 (//end assign menu):

Code: Select all

				usort($datamenu,'menusort');
				$this->data['categories'] = $datamenu;	
				//end assign menu
			

line 285 through 322 are empty and line 323 to the end of the file follows:

Code: Select all

				);
			}
		}
				
		if (file_exists(DIR_TEMPLATE . $this->config->get('config_template') . '/template/common/header.tpl')) {
			$this->template = $this->config->get('config_template') . '/template/common/header.tpl';
		} else {
			$this->template = 'default/template/common/header.tpl';
		}
		
    	$this->render();
	} 	
}
?>
Thank you in advance for finding a solution, I look forward to incorporating this in my site.

i just installed the module for v1.5.1.3 - i used the files from the folder NewsCMS 1.4.2 Vqmod and NewsCms 1.5.3 (i assume this is for v1.5.1.3);

however, i am seeing 2 News CMS tabs in the admin panel;
i even ran the install.php script, but no gain; can anyone help me out?

also, the front end is down with this error:
PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ')' in /www/htdocs/mprsupply.com/2012/public_html/vqmod/vqcache/vq2-catalog_controller_common_header.php on line 321


Edit: solved the issue on the front end - still the 2 NewCMS tabs in the admin panel

Second Edit: solved the double tabs in the admin panel - this was due to having both the new header.tpl and the vqmod; left the vqmod by itself, so that the core in not modified

Hi, maybe I'm missing something but I can't seem to find a way to get Sub-gallery containers. EG.

Root > Gallery 1 > Sub-Gallery a > Images
> Sub-Gallery b > Images
> Gallery 2 > Images
> Gallery 3 > Sub-Gallery c > Images

etc.

It only lets me create:

Root > Gallery 1 > Images
> Gallery 2 > Images

etc.

Please help :-)

Thans,

Quentin

We have just installed this module and it seems to have totally broken all the FOOTER links, they now all link directly to the Main gallery page... This is not good.

Also the main gallery page we wanted to have 3 Gallery Folders, clients choose one of 3 which opens up to 3 or more gallery folders under this, then click one of them to see the photos. The photos are stored by year.

To have a look at our dev site please go to -

Jimmy,
I am really impressed with this extension so far! I do have a couple of issues, when we deleted items from a gallery it left some empty space. Also the image sorting does not appear to be working.
thanks!

Gallery: http://allmillernofiller.com/gpc/index. ... album_id=2

Update 2/29/12 - I deleted the Album and then setup again(adding the images back in) and received the same results. I used the same name for the Album. I might try changing the name.

After this I created a new Album named "New Test". I then added the images to this Album with the same results.

Is there any way to get a single article to appear in the news category module? Like how they can be made to show up on the top menu.

I could simply put content on a category page but that leaves the text "There are no article to list in this category." at the bottom of the page.

Also, I am using an seo mod from here http://forum.opencart.com/viewtopic.php ... 60#p225666

Which is a very useful mod but it does not work alongside your extension (I am using the vqmod version) Is there any way it can be made to work?

Hello jimmyphong,
I just bought your extension but can't make it work.

The error i get is: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_DOUBLE_ARROW in /home/user/public_html/vqmod/vqcache/vq2-catalog_controller_common_header.php on line 321

At the admin menu i have the news cms menu and i was able to set a gallery and to assign pictures to it.
The problem is that my website doesn't work. I tried it with the default template and shoppica.

Thank you.

PD: My opencart version is 1.5.1
