CustomCats module and search

[pipelin]

Hi,

I have a customcats template for category cars, but when I search by category cars, I got the results on showlistings.tpl.

I'm trying to direct the category cars to my customcats template "showcarlistings.tpl" on the searchresults.php, but I'm doing something wrong in the code. This is I have:

$class_tpl->assign('sDisCity',$canViewSearchCity);
$class_tpl->assign('sDisState',$canViewSearchState);
$class_tpl->assign('sDisCountry',$canViewSearchCountry);
$class_tpl->assign('file', 'searchresults.php');
if($settings['sTemplate']==1)
If($cat['id']==3) //3 is categoryID for cars
{
$class_tpl->assign('body','showcarlistings.tpl'); //custom template for cars
}
else
{
$class_tpl->assign('body','showlistings.tpl');
}
else
{
$class_tpl->assign('body','showlistings2.tpl');
}
$modules->call_hook('search_end', ''); // Call any module functions
$class_tpl->displayTemplate();
$db->disconnect();


Can somebody help me, please?

Try this. Change:
If($cat['id']==3) //3 is categoryID for cars
to:
if(isset($_GET['type']) && $_GET['type'] == 3)

Hi Eric,

I think it works, But now I got this Warning: Smarty error: unable to read resource: "showcarlistings.tpl" .

I checked the spelling and is right.

[Eric Barnes]

It would be something like:
$class_tpl->assign('body','modules/customcats/templates/showcarlistings.tpl');

[pipelin]

I tried this:


$class_tpl->assign('body','modules/customcats/templates/showcarlistings.tpl');

and this:

$class_tpl->assign('body','modules/customcats/templates/cattemplates/showcarlistings.tpl');

but I got the same
* Warning: Smarty error: unable to read resource: "modules/customcats/templates/showcarlistings.tpl"
* Warning: Smarty error: unable to read resource: "modules/customcats/templates/cattemplates/showcarlistings.tpl"

I checked the file name again and the spelling is right, also the path is right too.

Hi Eric,

It works right if I put the template in dir: templates/default/. I don't why isn't following the path.

I just released a new update on this module to do this automatically:
Custom Cats v2.2 released

Thanks Eric, it works perfect!!!

This is something else, I inserted a new extrafield in the showcarlisting, but I can't get it sorts right, this is the code:

<th scope="col"><a rel="nofollow" href="{$file}?{$querystring_fid}" class="sortheader">Kilometre</a> {if $sqlsort=="fid"}<img src="templates/{$smarty.const.MAIN_TEMPLATE}/images/sort{$oppositesort}.gif" border="0" alt="Sort" />{/if}</th>

Also, if the field is a Featured Listing it remains in white color.

Extra fields can be sorted. It just isn't possible with all the joins in the query.

[pipelin]

I found the query in listing.php

code

$sSQL = "SELECT p.id, p.owner, p.title, p.featured, p.section, p.shortDescription, p.description, p.price, p.dateadded, p.expiration, p.display, p.pHighlighted, p.pBold, p.hitcount, p.url, u.username, u.state, u.city, u.country ". $select ." FROM ".PREFIX."listings AS p LEFT JOIN ".PREFIX."users AS u ON p.owner = u.id " . $joins;

I wonder how insert the extrafield there (kilometres ID=9).

Some advice, I'm not programer.
