Show all categories

[Guest]

I've installed the show all categories mod, which does almost exactly what I want.

 

There's just a couple of things I'd like to sort out:

[*]I want to embolden main categories to separate them from subcategories.

[*]One of my subcategories has a pretty long title, which goes over two lines. On the second line, it loses its indentation. any ideas how to fix this?

 

Here's how it looks at the moment:

Cool, I managed to get CoolMenu to do similar here:

Have you tried changing your BOX_WIDTH so that the one catagory will not wrap?

[Guest]

I thought about it - but it'd have to be pretty wide in order for "Rope Lights and Sillhouettes" to not wrap!

 

Is there a way I can put code into this text such as &nbspc ?

[nmad]

maybe a stupid question, but where i have to add all_categories.php?

 

thanks

[Guest]

I just changed the name of the file to categories.php, and replaced the file of that name in catalog/includes/boxes.

Thanks mistafeesh,

Another question for you :) How can i delete the numbers at the right of the categories?

cool. I hadn't got around to trying to work that out...so you found it for me! thanx :lol:

[Guest]

I figured out how to embolden the category names.

 

really simple - just use html code in the category name. eg my Christmas category is called <b>Christmas</b>

 

does the job for me!

Hi,

 

I?d like to have a categories listing including the subcategories. Just like displayed in an earlier post on this thread. However, I?ve made some changes to the categories.php file due to the installation of the Enable/Disable categories addon.

 

My code looks like this:

   }



   $categories_string .= '<a href="';



   if ($foo[$counter]['parent'] == 0) {

     $cPath_new = 'cPath=' . $counter;

   } else {

Hope to hear from you soon!

Hey Wolter!!!

Your include the GREAT Enable/Disable contribution but not include the code of the "Show All categories" contribution!

 

Your code doesn?t expand the hole tree of categories and subcategories.

 

I?m trying this right now. (include both)

 

If I?m success I?ll advise you

[Guest]

It was so easy!!!

 

Just replace the original line 109 of the all_categories.php

where c.categories_id = cd.categories_id";

for

where c.categories_status = '1' and c.categories_id = cd.categories_id";

 

You have to get running the Enable / Disable Categories of course!

 

Yours,
