Hi IvanSlater,

Yes, that makes sense. In that case you can use the approach with the css styles of the ribbon and use sprite background image.

Hi IvanSlater,

The ribbons don't make so many requests as you described. The number of requests is equal to the number of different ribbons if each ribbon uses a different picture. A ribbon can be shown for many products but as the image of the ribbon is the same for all these products then the browser will make only a single request to get this image from the server and then it will use the same downloaded (cached) image (no more trips to the server).
So if you have 5 different ribbons (5 different pictures) on a single page then only 5 requests will be made from the browser.
You can use sprites now if you want and have these 5 images into a single sprite image.
But then you have to define styles for each ribbon and instead of uploading an image from the administration you will have to define the sprite image as background image of the ribbon.

Hi mihailo82,

Unfortunately there is no setting in nopCommerce that can set the number of visible categories on the home page. nopCommerce shows all the categories that are marked with "Show on home page".
But you can limit them directly in the Razor view file.
For example if you want to show maximum 3 categories you can do it like this.
Open this file: Themes\Smart\Views\Catalog\HomepageCategories.cshtml

Change this line:

@foreach (var item in Model)

To be:

@foreach (var item in Model.Take(3))

You can change the number to meet your needs.

Hi Ela,

When you generate the script you need to exclude this stored procedure as it is encrypted.
Then when you run the script on another SQL server you need to install the Ajax Filters again in order to have the stored procedure generated again and the Filters to work.
We have already discussed this here.

Hi Ela,

We can't advice without seeing your web site. Please submit a ticket and provide a live link to your site. If you use the recommended image sizes you should not have problems with images.
Please refer to the documentation for the recommended image settings in the Traction theme documentation.

Hi Ela,

It is neither a matter of css changes only nor changes in the markup in the Razor view (Views\Common\Sitemap.cshtml).
It will require changes in the nopCommerce source code.
For example the categories returned in the Sitemap model are just a list of categories and you don't know which category is a top category and which category is a child category, so that you can group them as in the sample web site you have provided.
So this should be suggested in the nopCommerce forums and be supported by the nopCommerce framework. Then it will be only a matter of css changes.

Hi garry34,

This is supported in nopCommerce out of the box. You can associate pictures with attributes. Please refer to this nopCommerce documentation article (point 5).
All our themes support this and it is also integrated to work with the Cloud Zoom plugin.

Hi Ela,

I guess you are talking about the Zoom in the Quick View plugin. Please note that the Zoom in the Quick View has nothing to do with the Cloud Zoom plugin, so this is not the right topic.
You can enable the Zoom in the Quick View from the Quick View settings page in the administration like on our admin demo.
Open the "Quick View Popup Appearance Settings" panel and enable the first setting "Enable the cloud zoom on the main product image".

Hi nabeel1983khan,

Yes, it is empty as there is nothing to be upgraded in our plugins from 3.3 to 3.4. We haven't made any database changes between these two releases. We have left the file for consistency only as usually (except this time) we do have something to be upgraded.

Hi nopmstr2014,

Unfortunately there is no way to tell which manufacturers to be shown in the Menu.
