Hi guys,

we would like to let you know what the problem was and that it has been fixed.

The problem was that no resource file could be found for the languages that have been active when installing the plugin on your site. By default the plugin has a resource file only for English. So if trying to install the plugin when English is not published as a language you will get this error. Now this has been fixed.

In order to localize your plugin you need to go to the ~\Plugins\{YourPluginName}\Resources where the resource file exist, make a file for your language and import it.

You can also make a new file with the same structure as the default one and just rename it as you replace the "en-us" in the name with your locale(for example "fr-fr") and reinstall the plugin. This new file should contain the translated strings for your language. Translate only the text between the <Value></Value> tags.

The fix is uploaded to all our products on Nop-Templates.com

Yes, we have already scheduled this feature for the next release of the Ajax Filters. It will be around the beginning of next month.

Do you mean to incorporate the sorting dropdown? Because the price range filter is part of the Ajax Filters?

Yes. You did that when installing the Nop Home Page Sliders in order to restart the application. Now you need to restart it again so that the newly installed plugin is taken into consideration.

Adding the space to the Global.asax and saving file restarts the application. The space itself is insignificant. The Date Modified property of the file is what matters to MVC.

This is not a bug, just an enhancement that could be done to the filters but with a decent amount of coding, which I would not go into details here.
The sorting mechanism in nopCommerce works via a postback, which means that it refreshes the whole page including the filters. That is why they are cleared.

If you need your results sorted, sort them first and then use the filters. The filters will take into account the sort order.

Hi Liz,

Which version of nopCommerce are you using?
When exactly did you get this error - while installing the plugin or after the plugin installation?
Did you installed the Core plugin first and then the Sliders?

The error doesn't say for which plugin the null reference exception is thrown.
To be sure that the error is caused by the Sliders plugin then just delete the two plugin folders(Core and HomePageSliders) and then locate App_Data\InstalledPlugins.txt file and delete (if exist)any of the following lines:
SevenSpikes.Core
SevenSpikes.Nop.Plugins.HomePageSliders

Then try again to run nopCommerce but make sure you Rebuild your NopCommerce solution.

Please keep us informed on any progress with that matter.
