Hi manager,

We do some testing for each plugin and add them one by one in the package. Today or tomorrow all of them will be added to your package. We just want to make sure each of the plugins is perfectly integrated in the theme. Please download the package again tomorrow and just install the newly added plugins.

Thanks

Hi chris,

I am not sure if I completely understand you. Which version of the Filters do you use i.e 3.0, 3.1?
Have you changed the default sort option like this?

The default sort option in nopCommerce is Position, which means by display order in the current category. The Filters use the same sorting option that is chosen when they return the filtered products.

Thanks

Hi naresh,

There is some javascript error on your web site and that's why the Filters don't load.
Make sure you are using the latest version of the plugin and you have uninstalled and then installed the Ajax Filters plugin before testing (just to make sure you are really with the latest version).
After that check if you still the same problem. If you still have this problem then please disable the javascript bundling, so that we can see what the problem is in the javascript.

Thanks

Hi ikramissa,

The Nop Cloud Zoom plugin works this way. It replaces the standard picture div with a new Cloud Zoom one. We have made the Cloud Zoom not to do this when on a mobile device. So it is ok that the Cloud Zoom does not work on a tablet as in the tablets there is no Hover effect as in the desktops but it is not normal that your picture disappears.
What happens if you disable the Cloud Zoom plugin? Is the picture shown in both desktop and mobile?

Thanks

Hi naresh,

Now the JCarousel uses a new setting that specifies the minimum item width. You need to specify a smaller width in order for the JCarousel to fit more of them. Go to the JCarousel Settings page in the administration and change this setting "JCarousel item min width.:" to let's say 150 for example. Then set the number of items for your carousel to be 4 and it should display 4 items as the width of the items will be higher than 150 px.

Hope this helps!

Thanks

Hi axiomax,

If you want to add new variables to the Model you will need to have the source code version of nopCommerce and modify it, which we strongly recommend not to do as this will make your future upgrades much more difficult. If there are good reasons to change the model it is fine but changing  the model would be necessary if there is some new data in the database that you want to show dynamically. If it is just a link to some page it is better to simply add it, without modifying the Model.
If you are going to have a link to some predefined topic pages then you can search in nopCommerce to do so i.e about us pages etc. For some of the pages there are routes specified in nopCommerce, so you can use them as well i.e Contact Us page.

Hope this helps!

Thanks

Hi fermium,

Hi Nicolai,

Which version of the NeoFashion theme do you use?
Please note that we made the NeoFashion theme for nopCommerce 3.1 to be responsive and we have removed our helper and now we use a simple foreach statement.
But in any case the Model( which is a IList<ProductOverviewModel>) can be sorted just before the line where we use it. Something like this:

// sort the Model here just before passing it
@(Html.DataList7Spikes<ProductOverviewModel>(Model, 4,
            @<div class="item-box">
                @Html.Partial("_ProductBox", item)
            </div>

Please note that the JCarousel can't show the Featured products in an random order. You can make the same modification in the JCarousel view and presort the JCarousel items but this will affect all the carousels in your web site (all of them will display the items in a presorted order).
JCarousel view file is here:
Plugins\SevenSpikes.Nop.Plugins.JCarousel\Views\JCarousel\JCarousel.cshtml

Hope this information is useful!

Hi guys,

The resources your have specified above are not used anywhere and should not cause any warnings  in the nopCommerce log.
I guess you have searched for all sevenspikes.xxx resources that are empty but they are actually never used. You will probably ask why there are resources that are never used. This is because of the format of the resource files that nopCommerce read. You don't have a flat file with keys and values but you have a xml file with nodes and some of these nodes are simply there to group other resources. That's why all these keys are added in nopCommerce but they are never used. A missing resource would be when you have a warning in the Log about a missing resource.
You are right that some of them are really missing and we will add them.
Please note that we have chosen a much easier approach to missing resources rather than running some upgrade scripts. Each plugin checks on application start if there are any missing resources and adds them. This way when we introduce a new feature and new settings in the administration of nopCommerce you will get the new resources without the need to run any upgrade scripts. All you have to do is to make sure you use the latest resources.xml file in Resources folder of your plugin.

I hope this information is useful!

Should you have any questions/suggestions please let us know!

Thanks

p.s: we will check each resource key that you reported just in case if we have missed them in any of the resource files of the plugins and will let you know if the resources of any of the plugins needs to be updated.
