Problem with showproduct.php and showcat.php

jed423 · November 7th, 2004, 01:30 PM

New install of PP Classifieds and I am having the following issues:

1)
When viewing a category index (showcat.php), the table structure is mis-aligned. The condition appears under the "Views" column, the price appears under the "Condition" column like this:

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

2)
When viewing a listing detail (showproduct.php), The medium sized image is not displayed and the following script error is generated:

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

When I view source on the page, this is what hte function looks like:

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

Any ideas?

OK, I believe I found the cause to issue number two. Between lines 185 - 204 in showproduct.php:

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

We are using a custom usergroup to allow only certain users to upload/mod listings. We do not require administrator approval for these listings. Regular registered users aren't allowed to post listings.

The above code will not add the 'name' property to the img tag if the listing isn't flagged as approved:

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

Since we don't require approval for uploads, it's not adding the name, which is required for the JavaScript function update() to work.

I'm not sure if this is a bug or if we are a special case due to our chosen settings....

I'm still unable to figure out issue number one, listed in this thread's original post. Any assitance with that is appreciated.

OK, I think I found the problem to issue number one.

In showcat.tmpl, the column headers for the category are created:

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

Now, the "Views" header is created always. The problem is that if the setting "Display views" under the "Show Ads Options" category is set to no, the necessary <td> isn't created and the table is shifted to the left.

To fix the problem, something like this needs to be added:

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

So, I believe both of my issues have been resolved. Like I said before, I'm not sure if these are bugs and some fix needs to be applied for the next release or if they are unique problems occuring because of our choice of settings. Either way, I thought I would provide the feed back.

Thanks!

You are correct and I'll make an update for the next release. Thank you for the info.

You're welcome. This is a great app, by-the-way. I was about three quarters of the way through developing a one-off when I ran accross it. It really wasn't hard deciding to stop our own development and go with your solution.
