Hot to order stickies

AmericanBulldog · June 1st, 2006, 09:10 PM

I have a sub category and have placed 4 several ads and made several adds "sticky".

When I log into the admin panel and click on "order stickies" I get the following,
"No products have been marked as 'sticky' for this category."

How do I get to the ads in my sub cat to order the stickies?

I don't see anything particularly out of place but here is one thing that might help. Line 2375 of adm-misc.php is this

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

change it to this

Halfway there, I followed the advice above and could now see the categories to arrange the stickies in.

The new problem is it doesn't appear to change the order when i renumber them, and when I go back they are all #1 instead of 1-4. Does this have to do with the user selected orders, most popular, most recent etc...and if so, what is required to make stickies truly sticky?

Stickies truly work meaning they are displayed above any other ads when viewing a cat.

Your trying to change the order they display when sticky so try this in bold near this line in adm-misc.php at line 2552.

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

Thanks Chuck, I tried those changes, but of 4 ads they all revert back to #1, they do not go in the order I select for them. My code looks like this.

Quote:

if ($ppaction == "dochanges") {
typecast_wc("order", INT);
typecast_wc("id", INT);
$totalproducts=$thecount;

Interesting this is nothing I can replicate

You can send login and ftp info if you choose.
