I am evaluating the migration of an existing 2.3.4 shop to 4.14 (plus patches for long image paths and subcategory display). I was able to import the existing data, and see it displayed in the "Watch" theme. I am playing with creating a custom theme (one widget at a time) and I noticed recently that clicking on a main page category no longer brings up any product under that category. Same problem if I switch back to Watch theme. The link from the category (e.g., batteries) seems to be good (https://<domain>/batteries) but it just comes back to the / main page. Under admin, the batteries category is there, and it shows a number of products under it, with quantities > 0. I don't see anything suspicious in either the backend (admin) or in the database itself. Any suggestions on where to start looking? I wonder if I messed up something in the SEO processing of a category name, rather than not seeing products to display? I still have just the one page defined for this theme, but I think I was getting the products displayed before (but I won't swear to it -- I may be confusing it with the Watch theme, which used to show the products). The featured and new products sections no longer show any products. The theme says that all pages use this page layout, which may have to be changed once I get things starting to work.

JcM Navbar SuperFish Cat's V1.2 Phoenix This is a simple add-on for Navbar categories using SuperFish.js It requires NO core changes so just copy over the files provided. Once it’s installed simply go to admin and install and turn on. If you have deep cats or long names then you will have issues showing drop down or fly out menus on small screens! So it’s up to you to decide if this is worth installing. This add-on has 2 types of cats built into it. 1) Fly out SuperFish categories. These can be turned on and off and also can be blocked on smaller devices in admin. 2) Stock osC categories as a simple drop down with depth display set in admin. So pick the one you need. That's it enjoy.... Can be see working on this site SuperFish with images switched on. Stock osC with depth set to 4 on mobile

This addon is a bootstrap module that displays the category images on the home page. The category description can also be displayed via a setting.

Alternative Administration System: Categories/Products. is an alternative way to navigate through categories to easily find and EDIT products. It has its own ui totally different from the default admin one. You simply navigate to a php page and voila!!! Some features: Add extra custom fields easily All fields custom or not, can be editable or not, visible by default or not , sortable or not e.t.c. You can also add fields from other mysql tables other than products Deletion of multiple products Multiple prices edit Right side panel (sortable fields, choose what fields to display and sort - reorder them) Bottom panel (contains: categories list, languages, display in stock or not) Top Search panel (hidden by default, opens when you click on search icon) Server side pagination (includes max products per page) Advanced search (search on specific field, developers can add their own custom fields) Order products by different fields - custom fields Print categories and/or products (only the categories - products table, everything else is not displayed ) Multiple product status change Export products into csv, json, text or excel file I will post the addon at the addons page shortly Have a look at the screenshots: Youtube demo:

This Addon replaces the New Product page in your store's admin with a tabbed interface that is better organized and easier to use. The rest of the Categories/Products admin is the same; only the Product page has been changed. I backported this from the osCommerce 2.3.5 Beta, then added the additional fields that the 2.3.4.1 Bootstrap version uses. I did this because the old Products page has always felt poorly organized and confusing to me. If you feel the same way, give this one a try. Code is here. Screenshot:

This is a revised version of the Currencies as Flags addon by Gary (burt). It provides a way to display the currencies as flags instead of text. It is written for the Community Edition (Bootstrap).

Hallo, ich habe in der Version 2.3.1 erfolgreich mehrere Felder in categories.php (natürlich auch in der DB und in product_info.php) hinzugefügt und es funktioniert einwandfrei. Jetzt möchte ich die gleichen Felder in der Version 2.3.4 BS hinzufügen und es klappt auch, bis auf eine Ausnahme: wenn ich ein Produkt anlege werden alle Inhalte der Felder, auch die der neuen, in die DB geschrieben und erscheinen auch auf der Produktseite. Nur bei der nachträglichen Bearbeitung des Artikels öffnet die categories.php nur bis zum ersten neu dazugefügten Texteld - die Landesflagge erscheint noch, danach ist alles leer. Wenn ich nun bei den neuen Feldern in categories.php "empty" durch "isset" ersetze - wie in der categories-Version in 2.3.1, dann öffnet categories.php ganz, nur leider ohne die neuen Daten aus der DB. Danke im Voraus für jede Idee. mfG Udo P.S. hier die kritische Stelle in der categories.php: <?php for ($i=0, $n=sizeof($languages); $i<$n; $i++) { ?> <tr> <td class="main" valign="top"><?php if ($i == 0) echo TEXT_SHORT_DESC; ?></td> <td><table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td class="main" valign="top"><?php echo tep_image(tep_catalog_href_link('includes/languages/' . $languages[$i]['directory'] . '/images/' . $languages[$i]['image'], '', 'SSL'), $languages[$i]['name']); ?>&nbsp;</td> <td class="main"><?php echo tep_draw_textarea_field('short_desc[' . $languages[$i]['id'] . ']', 'soft', '70', '1', (empty($pInfo->products_id) ? '': tep_get_short_desc($pInfo->products_id, $languages[$i]['id']))); ?></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <?php } ?>

If a category in the shop catalogue contains both products and categories, the categores are not shown in standard osCommerce index.php Worse, if the category only contains inactive products, you see a message 'there are no products available in this category'. This admin dashboard module checks for mixed categories, and lists any with a link straight into categories.php so you can sort it out.

I had a client that wanted to be able to search the admin categories / products page using multiple keywords in the search box. As an example, they wanted to be able to search for “ces wing” and have that return products including “Cessna 170 Left Wing Tip” just as easily as “Wing Elevator for Cessna 170.” It’s essentially a multiple wildcard array for keyword bits as opposed to a single wildcard for the entire search. It’s also very easy to install! Just modify one file and a couple of lines at that: http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/9310

http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/5942 Support thread is dead for years. http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/topic/302088-contribution-multilayer-seo-pop-out-menu/page-10 Stumbled upon a little flaw. The categories section mostly works well. uncovered issues IF you use c.sort_order as the preference via admin console. If multiple categories are set at a common int (in this case all are set to 129), the order is alphabetically descending as show below. LED UV Blacklights LED Spot Light Fixtures LED Pixel Light Strings LED Outdoor Spotlight Bulbs LED Outdoor Flood Light Fixtures LED Outdoor Flood Light Dimmable LED Outdoor DMX Light Fixtures LED Outdoor DMX Flood Lights LED Meteor Tubes Mini Snow Falli LED Flexible Strip Light LED DC Spotlight Bulbs LED Club/DJ DMX Lights But that is contradictory to alphabetizing. I cannot figure out where the ascending/descending flag is switched. Betting I am missing the obvious, but a 2nd set of eyes would help. See problem live http://www.minionsweb.com/osStore Little help please. Thanks Corey Minions Web

I currently use this add-on to keep the categories box expanded. (osC version 2.3.3.4) http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/8384 This is my setup and so far everything works fine "except" for the Top Level link. Top Level ------------------ - Sub Level 1 ------------------ - Sub Level 2 ------------------ - Sub Level 3 ------------------ - Sub Level 4 ------------------ - Sub Level 5 ------------------ - Sub Level 6 ------------------ At beginning when i load the shop page for the first time i can click on any link, starting at Top Level or Sub Level and the page loads that category page. Now, let's say, I click directly Sub Level 4 but then click on "Top Level" the link is dead. It doesn't bring me back to the Top Level page. But if i load/enter the Shop page for the first time or if i visit the contact us page (or any other "non" category page) and then click on "Top Level" it works. I can also go from one Sub Level to the other without trouble, only the Top Level doesn't seem to work properly. I attached my current bm_categories.php file I would appreciate if someone could take a look and help out. Thanks!

Hey guys and gals, Need some help on finding a module that allows you to change the price on categories instead of having to change on each item. If there is a module like that out there can someone please let me know. Has to be pretty easy to install as I don't have a very good knowledge of installs on OsCommerce. Also were do I go to ask people to install specific modules on my website? Thanks in advance for your help.

I am looking for a contribution that will cache the categories into an array and pop the subcategories right under the clicked category. I am not interested in re-loading the whole page and be presented with the subcategories page, I just want a javascript-like menu that will pop-down without page reloading. Dynamenu did something like that for 2.2 but is there anything of this kind for 2.3.1?
