Hi, im using nopcommerce 2.65 and have tried the new nopmega menu. I am currently testing with its trial version. I would like to set a filter to the categories in the mega maneu. i.e. i want to select the categories which comes under the mega menu item by the alphabet. .So if i select 'C' then only the categoris which start from 'C' should be shown in the menu.

Is sucha  feature available in the mega menu?


There is no such feature in the Mega Menu. Everything that you get out of the box with the Mega Menu is available in the administration of the plugin.

Thanks

Nop Anywhere Sliders needs to be updated!!!

It is using a very old version of Nivo Slider.
The new version is responsive and has many benefits.

When will you upgrade the extension?


Hi Albertsaab1,

Basically the new version of Nivo slider should be only a new js file, which you can easily upgrade by changing this file with the latest version:
Plugins\SevenSpikes.Nop.Plugins.AnywhereSliders\Scripts\nivo\jquery.nivo.slider.pack.js

We will see if the plugin would work with the latest version of the Nivo Slider or it will need some changes and will let you know.

Thanks!

We have tried the Meg menu and anywhere sliders plugins but they won't install on our nop installation:

Our system info is:
nopCommerce version:   2.70
Operating system:   Microsoft Windows NT 6.0.6002 Service Pack 2
ASP.NET info:   v4.0.30319

We have:
1.  uploaded the plugins int the the plugins directoyr eg: plugins/SevenSpikes.Nop.Plugins.AnywhereSliders  
2. restarted application
3. Tried moving the nop.Web.dll file in the bin directory
4. Even changed the txt file InstalledPlugins.txt in AppData folder and this partially worked but was a last resort and the plugins did not work anyway.

Can someone please suggest a solution?

Thanks Heaps.


Hi itag,

If by "they won't install on our nop installation" you mean that the plugins can't be installed then there are two options for this.
1. You use the wrong version of the plugins. Please check the Description.txt file in the Mega Menu plugin directory if the version of the plugin is 2.7.
2. You have copied the plugins in the wrong Plugins directory. Please note that if you are using the plugins with the nopCommerce sources then you need to copy them in Presentation\Nop.Web\Plugins folder.

Thanks

Hi tbauto,

This has already been fixed and uploaded on our site as stated in this forum topic.
You need to download the package again and update the plugin DLL file.

Trying to integrate the Ajax cart into our category page and am receiving an error that states

"Timestamp: 12/10/2012 8:28:34 AM
Error: TypeError: $(...).data(...) is undefined
Source File: http://www.afnop.dev/Plugins/SevenSpikes.Nop.Plugins.AjaxCart/Scripts/AjaxCart.min.js
Line: 113"

I de-minified the JS file for troubleshooting puroses, hence the line 113 error. I have 'Enable Ajax Cart On Multi Product Variants On Catalog Pages:' enabled and 'Enable Automatic Integration' disabled. Any suggestions?


Hi activeforever,

Could you specify the version of nopCommerce you are using?
Also you can check the System -> Log and see if there are any errors. If there are any error related to the Ajax Cart then let us know.
The automatic integration will work only for the DarkOrange and nopClassic themes, so if you have a custom theme it simply has no effect and you need to integrate manually.
If you could provide us a link to your live site will help us a lot.

Thanks!

Hi, Thanks for your reply. If I understand well, I need to pass the id's of the products I'd like to show in the JCaroussel to the ProductOverviewModel.

So I tried:

@Html.Action("JCarousel", "JCarousel", new {carouselName = "Winter 2012", productModels = "1667,1668,1669"})

where `Winter 2012` is the caroussel name and the id`s are the product is`s I`d like to show in the caroussel. This gives no errors, but nothing happens.

I also tried like:  productModels = 1667,1668,1669 and 1667;1668;1669 etc but receive errors then.

Can you please tell me in detail what to do when I want to show the product id's 1667,1668,1669 in the custom data source caroussel ?

Thanks!


Hi hanz,

The JCarousel custom data source is a source of products and the data for this products should be of type ProductOverviewModel. So it is not enough to pass the id of the product. You have to create a controller that builds and returns a list(IEnumerable) of ProductOverviewModel objects. Then in this controller you can use the IDs of your products to get them and build the list of ProductOverviewModel objects just like it is done in the CatalogController. To create your own controller you need to be familiar with MVC and nopCommerce and use the CatalogController as an example or simply add a new Action to the CatalogController class i.e Winter2012Products and use it to return a view that have IEnumerable<ProductOverviewModel> as a model and then pass this model to the JCarousel as a custom data source.

Hope this is more clear now how the custom data source is intended to be used.

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!

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
