Problem with next and previous?

BobHarbison · January 21st, 2011, 04:25 PM

Maybe it's supposed to work this way, I'm not sure...

The "Next Product" and "Previous Product" thumbs are only working when the products have the same first word in the title.

As an example, this category has 28 products:
HO Buildings and Structures - Model Railroad Product Reviews

Click on the first on, no next and previous.
Coal River Station Gold Kit - Model Railroad Product Reviews

Same for the next product.

Then click on a product that starts with "Scale" (there are 4 of those) and suddenly you see a next and previous thumbnail image.

Box girder concrete segmental bridge - Model Railroad Product Reviews

Is this a bug or a feature?

I'd like it to show all products.

it all depends on what variables are passed to the function. I think it would just be a coincedence that yours happens along a title there in your example as there is no query in the next previous images based off a title.

You can do a little file edit here to show the queries on the page if you really want to see which next prev query is running. I would assume its the default query.

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

In admin global options make sure your debug option is set to DISPLAY ERRORS.

Next via ftp edit pp-inc.php and find this line

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

Make the 0 a 2 and that will print the queries in the footer. Then you can determine why your results are that way but at any rate yes it is support to display results based on permissions as well as the actual queries ran based on the various variables passed whether through a url or cookie.

OK, I'm a bit confused. Where would I be inserting that query? Do I replace something or just add it to the page? Also which template am I doing that in, showcategory?

Your not inserting any code. I am just saying there are like 7 different queries for next previous images most based off of date limit category and other variables which can be passed. All those queries are in showphoto.php

I was merely stating if you wanted you can see what query is running that returns those results based on doing that edit I noted.

I'm assuming you mean "showproduct.php" right?

Here's what I get, not sure which one is the one I'm looking for:

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

Chuck S · January 21st, 2011, 07:29 PM

Yep and there is the answer

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

The products being returned are via date.

BobHarbison · January 21st, 2011, 07:32 PM

OK, so how do I undo that?

Chuck S · January 21st, 2011, 07:36 PM

Possibly delete any cookies in regards to date. I could give you a code edit also if you want to remove that whole clause

remove this from showproduct.php

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

It's doing the same thing for people who aren't logged in. I checked it in Google Chrome, and got the same results.

BobHarbison · January 21st, 2011, 07:46 PM

I don't know if it's cookie related or not, but removing that code section fixed the problem.

Okay glad that did it for you. will try debugging it more on my end to see if I see anything else.
