Hi Joster,

As you have the Electronics theme already installed and you need to install the Fashion theme and switch to it you need to do the followings:
1. Copy all the plugins from the Fashion theme package and add them into the Plugins folder replacing the existing ones as the plugins that come with the Fashion theme has the styling specific to the Fashion theme.
2. You need to properly install the Fashion theme plugin by going to the administration and click Install rather than just marking the plugin as installed from the InstalledPlugins.txt file. This is needed as the Fashion theme plugin adds settings and resources specific to the Fashion theme.

Then you need to restart the application and the best way to do this is to modify the Global.asax file by adding some empty spaces in it and save it just to trigger a proper application restart.

That's all and you should now simply switch to the Fashion theme. If you want to keep both themes on the same instance of nopCommerce then you need to have both theme plugins installed and also keep both theme folders Fashion and Electronics in the Themes folders of the plugins, so that when switching between the themes the proper styling is used.

Please let us know how it goes and if you need further assistance!

Thanks

Hi mstuart,

You can embed your videos directly into the Category description or under it.
If you want tabs you can add them in the description of the category.
Unfortunately you can't add javascript into the description but you can add it into the Category template and create the tabs into the description.

Hope this helps!

Thanks

Hi Jeff,

We are currently working on making our themes and plugins responsive. Till then you can enable the mobile theme in nopCommerce, which is designed for mobile devices.

Thanks

Hi rgujral,

You might need to do this only once after you install the plugins, so that you can access their administration.
This is a very old problem in nopCommerce and is related to MVC and the plugin implementation in nopCommerce. You can read more about this here.
Did you manage to install the plugins?

Thanks

Hi jburke,

Do you have the Nop Quick Tabs plugin installed and the Automatic integration enabled?
If so then you need to modify the view of the Tabs as when the Automatic integration is enabled the views from the Tabs override the ones in the theme.
Please either disable the automatic integration of the Tabs and integrate them manually or simply delete the same lines from the files in this folder:
Plugins\SevenSpikes.Nop.Plugins.NopQuickTabs\AutomaticIntegration\DefaultClean\Views\Catalog

Please let us know if this is the case!

Thanks

Hi Shay,

Please note that this is new functionality and it is not supported in the current version.
We can't guarantee that this will work for nopCommerce 2.8. It will definitely work in nopCommerce 3.0 once it is released.

Anyway you can try to modify the view of the Quick Tabs.
Plugins\SevenSpikes.Nop.Plugins.NopQuickTabs\Views\ProductTab\_ProductTabs.cshtml

The changes you need to make in the view should go on different places depending on if you have Ajax enabled or not from the administration of the Tabs.

Thanks

Hi mstuart,

The Ajax Filters use the same category template as the current category. So if your category template is this one CategoryTemplate.ProductsInGridOrLinesFilters.cshtml then you need to have  the same template for the Ajax Filters.
You have to copy and rename the template below to match the name of your category template:
Plugins\SevenSpikes.Nop.AjaxFilters\Views\Catalog7Spikes\CategoryTemplate.ProductsInGridOrLines.cshtml

Then the filters will find the correct template and use it.

Thanks

Hi jburke,

Thank you for using our products and we are glad that you like them and find them useful!

To remove the core nopCommerce related products you need to modify the Product Templates in the Catalog folder and comment or remove this line:

 @Html.Action("RelatedProducts", "Catalog", new { productId = Model.Id })

There are two product templates that you need to modify (depending on which one you use you can edin only one of them):
Views\Catalog\ProductTemplate.SingleVariant.cshtml
Views\Catalog\ProductTemplate.VariantsInGrid.cshtml

Hope this helps!

Hi drcomputer,

We opened the page without any problems in IE9. What version of IE do you use? Please check if by any chance you have enabled the Compatibility view mode.

Thanks

Hi mstuart,

Sure you can do whatever changes you need in the Filters but please refer to the documentation and especially  the various selectors as they need to match your Html structure (if you make any changes to it).
About the subcategories and the Filters - there are two settings a nopCommerce one and one for the Ajax Filters. The nopCommerce one has nothing to do with the Filters and it basically says whether to show the products from the subcategories along with images of the subcategories themselve, which are always shown by default. If you enable this setting you will probably want to enable the same setting in the Ajax Filters, so that they can filter on the same set of products. But there is one important thing to note: The Ajax Filters will operate only on the products in the immediate subcategories and not in the next levels under them.  

You can hook to the Ajax Filter filtration completed event. Here is a sample code:

<script type="text/javascript">

$(document).on("nopAjaxFiltersFiltrationCompleteEvent", function () {
Add you logic here
});
</script>

Hope this helps!
