jokerman33 Posted June 6, 2003 Posted June 6, 2003 hi all :), i've been searchin' the forum for a hack or contrib on using images instead of txt in categories box, can't find it :( does anyone knows about one ? Quote
Guest Posted June 6, 2003 Posted June 6, 2003 this will put images in your categories box <?php function tep_show_category($counter) { global $foo, $categories_string, $id; for ($a=0; $a<$foo[$counter]['level']; $a++) { $categories_string .= " "; } $categories_string .= '<a href="'; if ($foo[$counter]['parent'] == 0) { $cPath_new = 'cPath=' . $counter; } else { $cPath_new = 'cPath=' . $foo[$counter]['path']; } $categories_string .= tep_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT, $cPath_new); $categories_string .= '">'; if ( ($id) && (in_array($counter, $id)) ) { $categories_string .= '<b>'; } // display category name $categories_string .= tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $foo[$counter]['image'], $foo[$counter]['name'], SMALL_IMAGE_WIDTH, SMALL_IMAGE_HEIGHT); if ( ($id) && (in_array($counter, $id)) ) { $categories_string .= '</b>'; } if (tep_has_category_subcategories($counter)) { $categories_string .= '->'; } $categories_string .= '</a>'; $categories_string .= '<br>'; if ($foo[$counter]['next_id']) { tep_show_category($foo[$counter]['next_id']); } } $categories_string = ''; $categories_query = tep_db_query("select c.categories_id, cd.categories_name, c.parent_id, c.categories_image from " .

" cd where c.parent_id = '0' and c.categories_id = cd.categories_id and cd.language_id='" . $languages_id ."' order by sort_order, cd.categories_name"); while ($categories = tep_db_fetch_array($categories_query)) { $foo[$categories['categories_id']] = array( 'name' => $categories['categories_name'], 'image' => $categories['categories_image'], 'parent' => $categories['parent_id'], 'level' => 0, 'path' => $categories['categories_id'], 'next_id' => false ); if (isset($prev_id)) { $foo[$prev_id]['next_id'] = $categories['categories_id']; } $prev_id = $categories['categories_id']; if (!isset($first_element)) { $first_element = $categories['categories_id']; } } //------------------------ if ($cPath) { $new_path = ''; $id = split('_', $cPath); reset($id); while (list($key, $value) = each($id)) { unset($prev_id); unset($first_id); $categories_query = tep_db_query("select c.categories_id, cd.categories_name, c.parent_id from " .

jokerman33 Posted June 6, 2003 Author Posted June 6, 2003 Thanks meltus :D , i presume this goes under include/cotegories.php ? can i use my own pics with this hack ? (i would like to create custom menu pics ) , thanks for answering si fast , i havn't even finish my beer !! Quote
Guest Posted June 6, 2003 Posted June 6, 2003 its just a straight replacement for boxes/categories.php you might want to do a diff on it - its not changed very much from the original. Currently it picks up the category image that is supplied in admin. You can change these to whatever you want. Quote
