Please note that the ProductVariantAttributeId is actually the id of the mapping between a product and an attribute. So when the filter attributes are being built, every attribute has several ProductVariantAttributeIds attached to it. So you do not need to change the stored procedure to sort the attributes by number of products for each attribute. You can do this sorting in the Razor view of the attribute filters:

AttributeFilter.cshtml

before this line:

@foreach (AttributeFilterItem attributeFilterItem in attributeFilterGroup.FilterItems)

sort the attributeFilterGroup.FilterItems like this:

attributeFilterGroup.FilterItems.OrderBy(x => x.ProductVariantAttributeIds.Count)

Let me know if this works for you!

Hi,

We are going to release a new version of the Nop Ajax Filters and the Nop Mega Menu by the end of January. We were awaiting customer feedback on the vendor support and since there is at least a minimal interest we are going to implement it in the new version. Would you mind suggesting this idea in our user voice portal?

It would be much appreciated!

Thanks

We do not provide the C# code of the plugin. However the Razor views are open to modifications and this should be plenty in 90% of the cases when you want to do customizations.
Would you be able to specify what customizations you need so that we can guide you how you can achieve them?

The Nop Smart SEO comes with one year free support and upgrades. This means that after this year is over you can continue using the plugin, but if you wish to receive support and upgrades from us you have to renew your license.

Best Regards,

Hi TSpearman,

The sorting does not work in your case because the Nop Ajax Filters always look at the first ProductVariant.Price to sort the products by price. The filters cannot use the GetFinalPrice method because the query will take so much time to sort the products that it would make it really infeasible.
If you update to nopCommerce 3.0 and Nop Ajax Filters 3.0, the sorting will work.
If you update to nopCommerce 3.1, the sorting price would not work no matter if you are using the filters or not. This is due to a bug introduced with the transition to grouped products, which is due to be fixed in nopCommerce 3.2.
I hope this is useful!

Best Regards

Hi,

The Nop Electronics Theme does not support responsive design, that is why you are unable to view it properly on mobile devices. The only themes in our portfolio that are not responsive are the Nop Electronics Theme and the Nop ShopAll Theme.

Hi Jon,

We are flattered that you like our plugins and would like to use them for your themes, but we cannot allow such an use by a competing vendor at the moment. The are several problems we see with this:

1. Your theme costs roughly $75 and our plugins cost $179. Add to this the customization service for the plugins and you are looking at a price close to $300. Based on our experience so far very few nopCommerce users will spend that kind of money on a theme especially if they have to buy this from more than one vendor.

2. Our plugins will be used to boost your theme presence but we are also a vendor of nopCommerce themes so it does not makes sense for us to fuel a competing vendor with our plugins to boost their themes, especially when the plugins are such a big part of our themes. This is our unique value proposition.

3. If we are to have our products demoed and sold somewhere else for a fixed price we would have specific requirements for this. They need to be absolutely rock solid in terms of integration and styling. Not that your work is not good but we simply do not have the resources at the moment to think about this and monitor and maintain the quality of any other demo websites other than our own.

4. We have already turned down one nopCommerce vendor regarding this and although they did something really unprofessional in return, we still don't think it would be fair towards them or any other vendor who want to do the same to refuse them but grant this to another vendor.

I hope this all makes sense and you will understand our position and act accordingly. In the future if the nopCommerce market is bigger and their is a much greater demand for themes and plugins we will certainly create partnerships with vendors and have you at the top of our list but for the moment based on our experience with the market, this really would result in more overhead than benefits for us.

I wish you success with your nopCommerce products!

Hi George,

Please note that the back button functionality is not a bug, it is an additional feature we added to the Nop Ajax Filters. Some of these features we cannot retrofit in the older versions because the nopCommerce source code will be missing certain pieces which are required by the new features.
We cannot change the nopCommerce core so that it fits our requirements. We usually ask the nopCommerce team to make certain changes to the code, which are general enough and which can benefit all plugin vendors. Then we will use these changes for the new features of the plugins.

As to bug fixes, if you are aware of any in your version do let us know and we will fix them so that in your latest 2.65 version you get the bug fixes.

But we do not retrofit new features and functionality in older versions of the plugins because as I explained it is not always possible, especially when you have such major upgrades between the versions, 2.65 runs on .NET 4.0 while 2.7 an onwards are .NET 4.5.

In any case, we do recommend upgrading to the latest version of nopCommerce. I can appreciate the fact that it might take some time to do so, but we are talking really hours not days, as the 2.x versions are straight to upgrade, even the 3.0 should be no problem.

So, the short answer is, we do provide bug fixes for older versions of our plugins, but we do not retrofit new features several versions back.

I hope this makes sense and you will understand our position.

Hi Ryan, Chirag,

First of all this is really strange as we have tested the theme and are looking at it right now and it works just fine.
I would like to ask you if you had run both the nopCommerce 3.0 upgrade script and our upgrade script?

If yes, would you be able to send us a copy of your original database, so that we can upgrade it and have a look?

Thanks

Hi,

We are currently deploying the 3.0 products to our website and at same time updating the content. This can cause the content to be out of sync with the downloads for a certain time.
We will let you know when the 3.0 versions has been deployed so that you can download it.

Thank you for your patience!

Hi Matty,

MisshionFish seems like a good fit for our plugin. Do you have or know any websites that are currently using it in their checkout so that we can have a look? Also are you aware of any public documentation or API on how to integrate with their system?

Thanks!
