Hi,

How and where exactly do I pass " IEnumerable<ProductOverviewModel> "  

I tried to add:

@Html.Action("JCarousel", "JCarousel", new {carouselName = "Custom Data Source", productModels = Model.CustomProductModels})*@

to index.cshtml in electr/views/home/ but receive an error.

I changed the name Custom Data Source to the system name I gave in admin, but I gues that's not the way to do it.

Thanks for any help!
Hans



Hi hanz,

Probably it is not very well explained in the documentation of the plugin.
The data that you pass to the productModels argument should be of type IEnumerable<ProductOverviewModel>. The code above is a sample code that gives you an example. Basically to the custom datasource is intended for more advanced scenarios and you need to be familiar with MVC and how nopCommerce works. A sample scenario is to show a set of products that you have in a custom view in a nice carousel and take advantage of the JCarousel plugin visualization.

Please let us know if you want us to elaborate more on this!

How do I designate products to be in carousel without them becoming featured products on the home page?


Hi chvi,

There are more than 15 predefined data sources for products, manufacturers and categories from which you can choose. Please refer to the plugin documentation to see the various options or just play with the different data sources in the administration of the plugin.

Hope this helps!

How would I change the color scheme on the JCarousel?


To change the color scheme on the JCarousel you need to modify the styling of the plugin.
Depending on the skin you are using and your theme name you need to modify this file:
For example with the nopClassic theme and the default-3-items skin this will be the file:
Plugins\SevenSpikes.Nop.Plugins.JCarousel\Themes\nopClassic\Skins\default-3-items\skin.css

Thanks

Hello Gentlemen:

I am currently having issues with the mega menus images and my EV SSL certificate. What is happening is that the images are not being rendered through HTPPS and are not allowing the EV certificate to function correctly... I need to be able to change the images relative path in order to support both HTTP and HTPPS pages.

What would you suggest to fix this?

Thank you very much in advance!

Eric


Hi Eric,

This has already been fixed and now uploaded.
Please download your product package again and simply replace the Mega Menu plugin .dll file.

Thanks!

I did notice that the nop plugins were inside a folder called plugins inside the plugins folder.  Could that be the problem?


Absolutely! You need to copy the content of the Plugins folder from the package into the Plugins folder of the nopCommerce installation.

Thanks!

I need your help.  I installed the NopClassic theme along with the plugins
Essentially the errors are caused because the plugins are still looking for the folders SevenSpikes.Nop.Plugins.JCarousel and SevenSpikes.Nop.Plugins.AnywhereSliders\Themes\DarkOrange\Content\nivo\skins'.  which seems to be caused by two things one the new skin was not properly installed and two the plugins are not properly installed because of it.

Hence, you may need to re-install both the skin and the plugins.
I'm at a loss.  


Hi chvi,

Simply make sure the paths exist on the server. The DarkOrange and nopClassic folders are shipped with the plugins and if you use a custom theme and it is not found then the plugins default to the DarkOrange one. So please make sure you upload the plugin folders as they are. Sometimes the FTP upload could mess things up and don't upload all the files or switches the files.

Thanks!

How do I upgrade to the current versions?


Hi rdub,

When a new version is available it is added to the zip package of the product.
All you need to do is to download the product package again and you will find the new version in it.

Thanks!

Get this error

We're sorry, an internal error occurred that prevents the request to complete.


Hi rdub,

Troubleshooting guide:

1. Go to yourstore.com/admin and go to System -> Log and inspect the Errors.
2. If you can't access the administration you have to change your Web.config file by replacing RemoteOnly with Off:
<customErrors defaultRedirect="errorpage.htm" mode="RemoteOnly">
to
<customErrors defaultRedirect="errorpage.htm" mode="Off">

Once you got the error it is much easier to know what is wrong.

Thanks!

Hi, is it possible get Mega Menu in Electronic Theme for nopCommerce 2.60?

Thank you in advance.

codicezerouno


Hi codicezerouno,

Nop Mega Menu was released for nopCommerce 2.65 and is styled and included in the Electronics theme for nopCommerce 2.65 and nopCommerce 2.7. The plugin is simply not available for any earlier versions for nopCommerce.

Thanks

Will the plugins work with any nop theme or just the dark orange and classic?


Hi chvi,

All our nopCommerce plugins are intended to work with any theme for nopCommerce. They come already styled for the DarkOrange and nopClassic themes  for convenience but you can easily style them for any other theme.
This is actually what we do for each of our nopCommerce themes - we style each plugin to match the look and feel of the theme.

Thanks
