Phoca Cart Filter

Post by zia »

Hi

Are there any options to change the subcategory filter from an expanded view to a dropdown? Also, how can I display the color filter as a color palette instead of text? My Joomla version is 6.0.3, PHP Version 8.3.19, and Phoca Cart Version 6.0.0

Hi, in filter module options you can set how the color parameters will be displayed.

What do you mean with subcategory filter?

You can change whole filter to be dropdown, see: https://www.phoca.cz/phocacartdemo/astroid/

My website is about selling the flooring products.

When I select a parent category (e.g. "Nylon") in the filter module, it shows "No items found" because the products are assigned to the child categories (e.g. "Aura Series", "Bloom Series") under Nylon, not directly to Nylon itself.
I would like the filter to include products from all child categories when a parent category is selected. Is this supported in Phoca Cart?

When using Specification Options for products, set the parameter Limit Specifications To Active Category to NO — this will ensure that the search is performed across all categories, not just the active one.

Hi,

"How to do something similar in a Premiere template?"

The dropdown ouput - horizontal - is a part of the Phoca Cart Filter module, so you can display it in each template. Just change the layout in Phoca Cart Filter module options.

How to disable the display of the filtering module on the product page while keeping it visible on the category page and the search results page?
