Hi, how to put cats and subcats on header menu as in http://www.vcscleaningsupplies.com.au/ ?
I've tried to search an answer in this forum, but only useful thread (I mean this: http://forum.opencart.com/viewtopic.php ... 9&start=30 ) has broken links.
Can someone help me, please?
I've solved in this way:
1. Open catalog/controller/common/header.php adding these lines of code:
2. in function index() in the same file add this code:
3. We can access to the list of categories from view using $category var. I've done in this way. In catalog/view/theme/{your_theme_name_here}/template/common/header.tpl I've rewritten "div5" div in this way:
And I've styled with http://www.kriesi.at/archives/create-a- ... via-jquery

1. Open catalog/controller/common/header.php adding these lines of code:
Code: Select all

$output = '';
$results = $this->model_catalog_category->getCategories($parent_id);

if (!$current_path) {
$new_path = $result['category_id'];

$new_path = $current_path . '_' . $result['category_id'];
}
$output .= '<li>';
$children = '';

Very nice work. I am also impressed by another thing. How did you manage to get the search and language in 2 separate boxes? I have been trying for some time now but it never works. Do you mind sharing that too?

I remember that I found Search Box module in the download section of this site. I've create langauge box module using same technique. Both are in posted attachments.
Enjoy!

Insert the following:-
after
at the start of the file.
I might also suggest placing:
above:
at the end of the index() function.
Code: Select all
$this->load->model('catalog/category');
$this->load->model('tool/seo_url');Code: Select all
$this->language->load('common/header');I might also suggest placing:
Code: Select all
$this->data['category'] = $this->getCategories(0);Code: Select all
$this->render();

It works now. How can I get the name i.e. Category to be pulled out with code instead of writing category in the header.tpl. Problem is that I use 2 languages on my site and hence categories will be wrong in the other language.
Another question..sorry don't kill me..how can I add information on top too? I checked the code for information..I think also in catalog/controller/module/information.php file. It doesnt have "protected function getInformation($parent_id, $current_path = '') " like in category.php there is "protected function getCategories($parent_id, $current_path = '') " . I know I sound silly but my knowledge of php is 0!

Hi everyone,
I have a question regarding code above, can I apply it for opencart 1.3.4?
I just installed opencart 1.3.4 and implemented code above, but it seem doesn't work.
I'm not a coder. Please help me, I've been searching in other threads. But still no solution.
Thanks.

Help! I'm trying to do exactly what you have done, so I tried with this code and I get this:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_PROTECTED ...(in header.php)
Can anyone advise me how to tackle trying to get this kind of functionality? - I want my categories to become menu items as on play.com/amazon.com, but my brain is completely fried trying to work it out! I keep getting ALL categories up including sub-cats and I can't work out how to seperate them for my menu... I tried this code but got the error described above and I've run out of brain power today to figure it out!
I've been in every file I can find with "header" or "category" in the filename and although I do understand the MVC framework, I'm still having trouble trying to figure out the connections between them all. My PHP is pretty basic and is being tested to it's limits! Any advice/previous examples/forum links welcome - this is the most relevant thread my search pulled up but I'm sure someone must have tried a similar thing before?
Thanks
