Hello I have upload the module FAQ 148 because I'm using OC V.1.4.9.1 (French version) and followed the instruction but when I go to see my store the following text appear on the left menu just under FAQ
Undefined variable: text_faq in /home/cleo/public_html/catalog/view/theme/sport/template/module/information.tpl on line 8
Can you tell me what the problem is and what I need to change please?
tks
Cleo
The error is not in the FAQ module. You have tried to add a link to it from your Information module. You can't do this by just adding a line to the template file. You need to define the text string in your language file and define the variable in the controller.
In "catalog/language/english/module/information.php", add the following:
Do the same in your French language file.
In "catalog/controller/module/information.php", insert the following:
In your template file (catalog/view/theme/YOUR_THEME/template/module/information.tpl), you should have something like:
In "catalog/language/english/module/information.php", add the following:
Code: Select all
$_['text_faq'] = 'FAQs'; In "catalog/controller/module/information.php", insert the following:
Code: Select all
$this->data['text_faq'] = $this->language->get('text_faq');
$this->data['faq'] = HTTP_SERVER . 'index.php?route=information/faq'; Code: Select all
<li><a href="<?php echo str_replace('&', '&', $faq); ?>"><?php echo $text_faq; ?></a></li>

Oooops!
Ok I did as you suggest, in my (catalog/view/theme/YOUR_THEME/template/module/information.tpl) I had the following
<?php } ?>
<li><a href="<?php echo $faq; ?>"><?php echo $text_faq; ?></a></li>
Should I leave it there or remove it to add what you wrote?
Cause I tried just adding your's or deleting the one above and now I have the following showing:
Notice: Undefined variable: text_faq in /home/cleo/public_html/catalog/view/theme/sport/template/module/information.tpl on line 8
Notice: Undefined variable: text_faq in /home/cleo/public_html/catalog/view/theme/sport/template/module/information.tpl on line 9
I'm really lost now LoL!

Hello again Fido-x
To make sure I removed completely the content of that file and copied yours instead and this is what I get now on my homepage:
Notice: Undefined variable: text_faq in /home/cleo/public_html/catalog/view/theme/sport/template/module/information.tpl on line 8

You haven't defined the variable in the controller.
And don't forget the entry in the language file(s).fido-x wrote:In "catalog/controller/module/information.php", insert the following:Code: Select all

Thank you again for your quick reply and all your help!

Ok I think I know why I get this error!
I installed the module in extension and if I look at "Position" it's Catalog
But because my store is in French it should say Catalogue (well I think that's the reason but I may be wrong!)
If I'm correct then I don't know where to change it

ok, fixed that error again!
Now when I click on Catalogue the FAQs does not appear
So of course when I go to the store and select FAQs it says: FAQ Page Not Found!
I just noticed also that the FAQ does not appear in the site map page
Ok, I'm off to bed now and will check again later cause now I have no more idea
@Fido-x I hope you will be able to help me one more time! Or anyone else

Oh well I believe I almost fixed it 
The only thing that is weird is that in your file it says From the menu, select "Catalog–>FAQs".
Assuming you have followed the installation and configuration instructions properly, you will be presented with a page displaying a list of your FAQs. You may delete the sample question, or edit it to suit.
To insert a new entry, click the "Insert" button. The entry page contains "Question" and "Answer" fields to hold the question and answer.
By clicking the "Data" tab you will be able to set the status of the entry to "Enabled" or "Disabled" (disabled by default). You can also set the sort order on this page.
When done, click "Save".
What is funny for me the FAQ doesn't appear in my Catalog drop down, it's showing in Extension/Module!
So I went trough all (a lot) my files and finally found the one with the English text: Frequently Ask Question and translate them in French, I didn't find any Sample questions text though. So I am doing my own.
The only thing is the FAQ does not appear in the Site Map but that's not a big deal!
Well for a French Blond dummy who knows nothing about programming I'm proud of myself
