Hi,
Are you using the latest version 2.81 of the Filters as we did some caching performance improvements last week?
You can also try to disable the Manufacturer filter and see if this makes any difference.
But the best advice to you is to reorganize you category structure and don't include products from subcategories in the Filters settings. We have left this option for shops that don't have a lot of products in their subcategories. This will improve performance as well as the user experience, like Ivan said, as otherwise the number of Filtering options increases and definitely confuses the users.
Could you send an email at support at nop-templates.com and send us your FTP credentials, so that we can get your database locally and test the Filters with it. This will help us improve the Filters faster.
Many thanks

Hi, sorry if this is answered in another plase, but i need to know if there is a plugin or configuration that I can do for have a value of the specification edited in the product page, because i have a lot of options about the specificaction of the product,
i mean a functionality like the mod showed here http://www.nopcommerce.com/p/177/product-specification-value-mod.aspx
And could be great if you have a plugin for upload downloadable information of the product (in a new tab) to download manuals, firmware updates, and so on.
This for v2.6, because is the version that we use.
Thank you!

Hi hideme,
We are not aware of such a plugin. You can try to contact the creator of this plugin for 1.9 if by any chance it is available for 2.x. By the way you can add custom values for specification attributes in nopCommerce 2.8. You can read more about this in this blog post:

Hope this helps!

Hi Dave,
I guess this is because you are trying to use the plugin in the Mobile theme. Please note that our plugins are intended for the Desktop theme only. We haven't tested integrating the plugins with the Mobile theme, so we can't guarantee that the plugins will work with the Mobile theme.

Hi,
I want to add a slider to a mobile widget (mobile_home_page_top) however it isn't in my list of available widgets.
Can you let me know how I can add this?
Many thanks,
Dave

Hi Nop-Templates,
I use JAIL - image loading, and after filtering my images are not showing. So i think i have to call a function after the filter is done to activate my async image loading. Where should i do that, or what would be the solution?
At head of my website:

Hi mrbombay,
You can try to execute some custom logic on ajax complete as the Filters make an ajax request to the server to get the filtered products.
$(document).ajaxComplete(function (event, xmlHttpRequest) {
add your logic here
}
But this is not the best approach as there might be other ajax requests to the server except the ones that Ajax Filters do.
Basically the Filters get the filtered products and replace the whole category panel with the result. So as a result some new html that has images in it is added to the DOM.
I am not familiar with JAIL but it should work with images that are dynamically added to the DOM.
Probably there is some setting or something to make it work in this scenario.
Please let us know if you manage to make this work.
Thanks
I've found something more, but still not working:
The JSON request was too large to be deserialized.
Hi mrbombay,
It looks like when you have enabled to show the products in the subcategories and you are on a main category there are too many available filtering options because you have much more products to be filtered. There is a limitation in the .NET Framework on the JSON request being sent to the server and as the Ajax Filters send the data to the server via Ajax and JSON that is why you get this error. You need to increase the limit via adding a setting in your Web.config file.
Into the <appSettings> section add the following line:
<add key="aspnet:MaxJsonDeserializerMembers" value="150000" />
Thanks!

Any update on the attribute combination display with stock tracking?
"the way that nopCommerce currently works is that a customer can choose ANY combination and try to add it to the cart, if there is not stock in that combination they should get an out of stock message.
I don't really like this way, I think that once you choose a size, for example, then the color should populate with the available colors in that size - or something along those lines. That seems to be the way that most online stores do it."
Any update available?
Thank you,

Hi lacorne,
You are right that it is a bit frustrating but I don't think this has been changed in the latest version of nopCommerce. We are also not aware of any solution about this. You can ask in the nopCommerce forums if there are any plans for this to be implemented as you suggest for the next release.
Thanks!

Hello,
How can we change the sorting order of the main shop (catalog) page.
By default products are ordered alphabetically, how can we update this to be ordered by “created on” by default? So the newer products are always in front.

Hi lacorne,
The default sort order in nopCommerce is by position. You can manage the Order/position of the products within a given category from the category page and selecting the Products tab and change the display order.
Unfortunately the sort order can't be changed in nopCommerce from the Administration. The "View per page" and the "View in Grid or List" can be changed in the administration but the sort order is always the same.
Hope this helps!
Thanks

I have also slow loading with nopCommerce 2.7 and Fashion theme with ajax filters enabled.
Filtering takes up to 5 seconds and sometimes (seems random) more then 10 seconds even when the page is already in cache. With the standard nopCommerce filtering is fast (< 1 sec).
Our site runs on a fast dedicated VPS, with 3 cores and 4GB ram. I only have enabled the Specifications Filter in the settings of the ajax filter.
We have multiple variants per products, tier prices and discount rules.
In the catalog controller i have made adjustment for loading categories. This helped reduced the page load considerbly (not for the ajax filtering) Maybe this helps resolve the issue?
/* added preparePiceModel parameter, set to false (performance reasons) */
model.Products = PrepareProductOverviewModels(products,false).ToList();
Please take a look at http://www.papicolor.com/210x297mm-a4 and try out a filter. We want to keep the pageload < 1 sec.

Hi milo,
Please update the Ajax Filters to its latest version as we made some improvements in the caching.
Please refer to this article for the update.
As to the speed please note that the Ajax Filters do much more than the default filters in nopCommerce - i.e take the discounts into account, calculate the available sort options based on the current selection etc. This means that there is no way to make the Filters work as fast as the default nopCommerce filters, which simply filter the products.
Please let us know if you notice any improvement in the filters after the update.
Thanks

Hi,
How to add remove button in minishopping cart so that items can be removed directly from mini shopping cart
How to add remove button in minishopping cart so that items can be removed directly from mini shopping cart
Hi drcomputer,
Please note that the mini shopping cart is not part of the Ajax Cart plugin.
To add a remove button in the mini shopping cart you need to edit this view although it might not be straightforward to do so.
Presentation\Nop.Web\Views\ShoppingCart\FlyoutShoppingCart.cshtml
You can ask this in the nopCommerce forums as probably there are some discussions about this already.
Thanks
