How does it work??

I just installed vq mod, downloaded Display Subcat Images for 1.5.1.3.1

I put it in the xml folder

Do I have to do something else?

Can you try this version please?
I've tested on a default install and all is good.
subcat_images.xml
I just installed this on 1.5.3.1, default template, running only a few other Vqmods & works like a charm !
Thanks so much. I was pulling out my hair wondering why I was wasting my damn time making subcategoty images if they weren't gonna show ! LOL
Now they do & all is well.

Thanks BIG time teratyke !!!

Hi

I am really new to opencart. I find that v1.5 is totally different from older version which my friend use.
i want to do the subcatery images but i totally don't understand the solution in this thread.

Is there any easier way to do this? like just change any code in category.tpl for example?

Please help.

Is there any way that some one can make this a raw code, i.e. find this, replace it with this, etc.?

Thanks.

Excellent mod.Works fine at 1.5.1.3.

If you are using my vqmod I added a couple of extra css classes so you can add to your stylesheet to apply your own formatting. Look at the code, but I think they are called box-subcat and subcatname.

e.g.

Code: Select all

.box-product .subcatname {
text-align: center;
}
If you don't add anything to your stylesheet then it will look like a normal box-product.

Hi,

I am using a non standard template. I have installed this mod but I would like to change the look slightly. At the moment it only shows 3 boxes on each line as the boxes get their size from the dimensions in admin and are quite big in the template I am using. I would like to change this so it has its own style but I REALLY dont understand how stylesheets/classes etc work.

To add this in to the stylesheet and give the subcat images its own sizes what exactly would I need to do? I have tried different variations and nothing seems to change when I upload and refresh so I must be doing something wrong!

Thank you for any help

Hi
I think the best thing to do would be to change the category image size in the admin -why would you not want to do that? That way the images are 'thumbnailed' to the correct dimensions and you should get more columns per row.

In terms of learning css etc,
I recommend you install Firebug, or the equivalent for your browser, then you can right click part of the page, choose 'inspect element' and play around with the css until you get it right. Make a note of the changes you make then apply these to the stylesheet of your template.
You will either have to learn how to do it yourself, pay someone to do it, or, ask for help online. Its hard for people to help without seeing your site.

Good luck
Rob

Hi Guys, sorry to weigh in with my problems too.

I have a custom layout and unfortunately not one of the xml vqmods listed above work for me.

I have tried each one in succession but I cannot seem to get the subcategories to show underneath the parent category.I have tried removing all vqmods (apart from the required vqmod menu shortcut and vqmod manager).

Can anyone advise where I am going wrong!?

Thanks,

Fantastic, I have installed the refine search extension and it works a treat. I had thought I would have to explore the coding myself but I now realise that there are much more capable people out there!

Thanks for the help, I might try a few more of your extensions too,

Cheers,

Hi,

Awesome extension, just have a quick, hopefully easy question.

Currently, my category images are full width banner like this:

Image

But, obviously with the extension, it shrinks the images down and looks pretty bad.

So I have created images for displaying in the category images like this:

Image

To get them to show up, I had to overwrite the images under /image/cache/data/catagories/ with my modified images.

I am worried that that something will cause the cache to refresh and delete the images I placed there.

Is there anyway to link the images to show up in the Refine Search part, but keep them safe too?

Daniel.

Hi,

XML seems to work fine but it's affecting the items listed as grid below. they are all sliding to left and page looks odd.

thanks
