Display ALL active listings under category list

[marketingsolutions +]

I didnt mean to rub you guys the wrong way!!!

Anyways, Thank you for the speedy resonses - I have never seen a forum that has answers returned so fast, LHotch managed to get a reply in before I had even viewed the first post!!

I understand the implications of this, and they have been explained to the client. They still want it anyways, I'm sure you can understand how clients simply fail to see their requests from the eyes of the developer - they just want it done yesterday.

So now, after editing the category.php as Eric suggested, we now have all listings being displayed underneath the category selection table, paginated and everything! Yipee!

What do I have to do to enable Google Maps to display underneath these listings?

I dont mind editing any files, and I dont mind that doing this may cause high server loads - this has all been explained to the client, as we were unhappy with extra server loads. But its not our money, so ours is not to reason why!

I guess that all depends on how the maps are handled in the first place. Is your client using my google maps module or some other method?

Sorry, I should have mentioned that in the first post!

It is your Google Maps Module ( LHotch).

The latest iteration of my module makes use of the category end hook and will loop through the list of ads and plot them on a map that is displayed on the page.

Im not sure if it was you who originally purchased the module for your client or if you had you client do it, but if you PM me the client details and where to send the updated module I can get that to you.

Hi Larry

My colleague ( Stuart ) has sent you an email. Could you please send the updated version to his email address?

Will there be any changes required in the 68 core files to enable the updated module?

I also noticed that your module (the older one we are working with here) required some editing to enable it to work locally - I use the Apache2Triad WAMP, and have PHP Short tags disabled. Several of the php files in your module used the PHP short tags , meaning that they were not parsed as PHP on my setup. If anyone else places the module inot a system that does not have short tags enabled they too will see a large block of PHP at the top of their pages that is not parsed until the tags are changed to full tags - just thought I should let you know

Ben, the devil is in the details.

Since this has all been posted in the V4.1 forum I assumed your client was running V4.1. However after my last post I was contacted by who I assume to be your client. They had contacted me in the past about this functionality for V4.0.9 and my module for that version does not currently have the category map functionality.

So the question I have now is, exactly what version of 68C is your client running?

[marketingsolutions +]

Our version of 68 is reporting that it is v4.1.0 RC3.

That version has many known bugs, I suggest you actually upgrade to the latest release.

I beg to differ -

God is in the details, the devil is in the process...
