 I want to make a custom one, where I can set it in ubercart? how do I show taxonomy terms (categories and subcategories)and not the products associated with it. is there a special filter for views? with the taxonomy:term or term for "vocabulary name", I can't reach that result. thanks.
overide by name of the view?
Iv'e tried to overide it by changing the name of the view, It messed up the all pages products. I just want to set: category (without picture) sub-category(with picture), sub-category(with picture), sub-category(with picture) category (without picture) sub-category(with picture), sub-category(with picture), sub-category(with picture) and on and on, but views displays me only the nodes and not the terms.
sombody??
right now only the subcategory name is shown and not the picture of each... I'm really need an answer, because my whole project not moving at the moment.. 
Re: overide by name of the view?
I'm not clear on exactly what you're trying to do, but I think I can at least give you a thing or two to explore: 1) Don't try to replace the current view. Clone it, or create a new one from scratch. Then when it's all ready, you can redirect people to it rather than the default category page. 2) If you want it to display the subcategories rather than the nodes, I think you want to use the "Arguments" part of views. Specifically the part where you tell it that the default view (when it has no explicit $arg to process) should display a summary of choices. You might have to build a little custom module to create a summary type that displays the picture along with the name of the subcategory. 3) The layout in your second post looks to me like it is a candidate for a panels page. I am doing a similar setup in a store (though with nodes and not subcategories at the bottom) and panels worked well for that sort of display. 4) Also, if you don't already have it, the Views Bonus Pack has some nice layout extras (like the grid) that might match your needs better than the default set. Good luck!
thanks for your answer.
1. what is the "current view"? I don't see the catalog is in a view... and how do I redirect people was my question... 2. that's sound like a a direction to explore but I'm not a programmer and I don't think that writing a module will be the efficient thing at the moment, altogh it's an option. 3. yes, but the all problem is the taxonomy are not nodes and I cant see the term by them self in a page, without the products associate to them. 4. I'll check about that views bonus pack soon and write here. Thanks.. ori
Re: thanks for your answer.
Did you solve this? I am having the same problem. I am able to create a view called products. My categories look like this: Category 1 I am able to see the product list when pass args with the correct Taxonomy Name / ID but if I just pass the Category 1 in the arg's I get an empty page instead of a link to Sub Category 1 and Sub Category 2. Any help would be much appreciated. |
