As you said you are beginner so just go through step by step
In Opencart there is a feature called filter which exactly fulfills your requirement
**Step1 (Creating Filter)**
Admin panel>catalog>filter>Inset a new filter
->Filter Group Name "Color".
->click on add filter and add your colors "Red, Green, Blue...."
**Step2 (Adding Filter attribute to Product)**
Admin panel>catalog>products>edit product
->under the link tab there is a filter add the filter to product you want
eg if the product is red in color add "red"
->Do this to all product you wanted to be filtered.
**Step3 (Adding Filter Scope to category)**
Admin panel>catalog>categories>edit category
->under the data tab there is a filter add the filter you want to be displayed like "red, green etc.."
->Do this to all category you wanted filter to be displayed.
**Step4 (Enable Filter module or setting layout)**
Admin panel>Extensions>Modules
->Find Filter and click on install
->Now Edit the filter
->click on add module
->Set Layout to Category, Position to Content Top and Status to Enable
->Click on Save
Now you are done, In category you can see the filter feature in category,
If you still find difficulties you can follow the official documentation http://docs.opencart.com/display/opencart/Filters
Hope this helps.
I am editing Virtue mart's Product Description view, i just want to display all the other remaining products in the Product Description page itself.
For example:
"A category having 10 products, now i m in a description page of a
product which is 1 among 10. How to show remaining 9 products"
Any One Help me with the code part..(or) Is this can be done with the Back-end Settings???
If you are using VM2.x then you can achieve this with accessories option or related categories.
In the product create/edit form in admin side last tab (Custom field) have option for adding Related Category and Related Products.
The related products are showing in the details page.
The related category will show the category details and link.
Hope its help you..
I'm trying to create a menu with buttons that can filter products by main categories
This query url finds products inside a category:
/index.php?route=product/category&path=61
i can find only a part of products with a subcategory search.
/index.php?route=product/category&path=61_72_73
I need to NOT LINK products with their category parents, so is there a way to search with a subcategory filter?
I tried something like this:
/index.php?route=product/category&path=61&sub_category=true
But this doesn't work, it works only with textual searches like this one:
/index.php?route=product/search&search=chair&category_id=61&sub_category=true
ModelUse 'Advanced Product search for OpenCart'. You can search sub categories and any filters you add (including custom ones) with it.
http://www.opencart.com/index.php?route=extension/extension/info&token=460e88e8227b9d7e80466e026dbe1f64&extension_id=13605
I use it for a car dealer website with filters like year, make, model (and sub categories of those) etc and it works great for me.
Here's a demo link:
extension demo link
Try
index.php?route=product/search&search=%25&category_id=25&sub_category=true
25 is category id (which is not mandatory)
and search=searchterm is for a sting search in all sub categories
search=%25 means all products
search field name has changed at some of past version try this for 1.5.4.1
index.php?route=product/search&filter_name=%25&filter_category_id=20&filter_sub_category=true
and see here
http://demo.opencart.com/index.php?route=product/search&filter_name=a&filter_category_id=20&filter_sub_category=true
I have a view called products, using product content type and are classified by the product taxonomy terms. I just want to show the Title and Picture from the node and group them by my tags.
tags:
fruits
dried canned goods
dairy
Surely you need to create a View.
In views you can make any filter for data and show in a new node, table, list, etc.
I have 3 suppliers, 40 brands and 120 products, all displayed in three category filters. When a user selects one supplier from the Supplier filter, I want the Brand filter to hide all brands that are not provided by that supplier. Likewise, when a brand is selected, I want to hide the irrelevant products from the Products filter. I don't really care about what's being shown in the table at this point.
Is there any way to implement something like this?
Heres an example for you -
http://jsfiddle.net/danabnormal/cjn2tbbm
You can do this by creating a Dashboard. At around line 61 you can see that the selection made in the 'Sex' drop down is bound to the 'Name' dropdown, thus limiting what Names can be selected.
dashboard.bind(filterSex, filterName);
dashboard.bind(filterSex, pieChart);
