Wow, What a problem.

Hey, guys did you ever try to lock the category? Yeas, I know you did. But then try to suggest a catery as if you were a customer to this category, and you will get a message that this category is locked. But what should I do if I want to lock this category for listings but not for the subcategory suggestion.???

Hi ellan

Open the following file: /suggest-category.php
and add this code:

PHP Code:

unset($category['locked']); 


before code (line #100):

PHP Code:

if($category['locked'])
{
    $error = true;
    $msg = $gDirLang['error_category_locked'];
} 


That all, now you users may add subcategories in to locked category.

Ok, this problem we resolved. But here I found another pretty interesting bug. Ok, Look for example you wanna to sybmit a link. you try to do this and get a message that this category is locked. You choose subcategory and then you get to the submission page. Here the problem is. Why do you need to choose category again? When you get to submission page you can see the category selection field, but why do there is a ROOT categore selected? Could you do so, that user could add a software from any page of the directory, but he should choose this category on the submission page? Thank you.

Hi ellan

Here solution for you:

Open file: /templates/"current_template"/Layout.php

find following code (line #296):

PHP Code:

$menu['suggest-link']['url']        = $url."suggest-link.php?id=".$aCategory; 


and change to:

PHP Code:

$menu['suggest-link']['url']        = $url."suggest-link.php?id_category=".$aCategory; 


That all.

Mmmm, this solution doesn't work=(

Wow, again new problem...I am so sorry that I am so problemous, but I just check my site and find new and new problems. Now When user adds link tto my catalog, he has to choose category twice, more of that, if he chooses any other category he gets message that this category is locked...yes it is, but to choose subcategory he has to choose category, and he can't....waht to do? If you didn't understand me, just try to add anithing to my catalog....

[ellan]

OK, little bit more facts. Actually, now I have unlocked all categories beside root but still have this problem...when you choose other category on the suggestion page you get locked message. I don't know why...I also noticed that if you will not touch category selection during submission but just leave it as it is(ROOT) you will submit and everything will be OK...but I don't think that customer, when he sees ROOT in the category selection field()but he knows that he choose category before by surfing thru my catalog) will leave it as it is,,, he will try to change to category he selected before...so what I want.


I want to change this stuff so that when you have chosen category by surfing you will see it on the submission page but not the ROOT over there, or another way just let customers add software where they want and just choose category directly during submission but not before....is that possible?

P.S> I will write there to customers that they don't need to change this ROOT to anything else because they've chosen category before...but if you want to see the bug just try to change the category on the submission page. And also, all categories are unlocked...so it's really bug...
