[MOD] Category Image v1.0.2

[webbug]

I have 1.7.6, just installed it with the optional bulk mod.  Everything is perfect but I have a problem!

I can't create a new category or sub category.  Nothing happens when I do so.  Editing the category is fine though.

Kindly lead me to where I have made mistake or forgotten something.

thank you

You can start by replacing admin/categories.php with the unmodified one, make sure it works, then apply changes to it again.

Is it difficult to let the system to insert automatically first uploaded photo like a Category Image ? And after if somebody change his mind and doesn't like it , use this mod for edit/delete ? I think that everybody would appreciate it , they only need to remember that they must the category picture upload like a first one. I use this super mod , it saved me a lot of time but i have 1200 categories and i have to go everytime IN , see the number - go back to admin and insert it . Thanks Daniel

or to add another field to upload form - category image , and in case that you want this image like category image upload that there.

It would require additional steps, meanwhile, you do know that you can edit an image (in ACP) and set it as cat image from that page, right (if you did step 6)? Don't need to remember any numbers.

Yes , i know , it works very well too , but to do this after successful upload from control panel or from category(You helped me to redirect) everytime I have to go back to the category , to choose the picture, click on it , then click on edit , and open it in ACP - mark like u' ve said YES and then to go back again
or
 to find out the number ID and instead open the image in ACP to set YES I have to open category and fill out the number ID , with this change I should save many clicks (at least 5) to have my 1 category image immediately , I can do it , I'm not lazy, but my website is international and used mostly by the girls, so when they upload the pictures they don't know where they are, after every step they do , I have to make 1000 explanations in many languages on every page so I welcome every simple  time saving Mod . That's why i was happy when you showed me how to redirect to the category instead to control panel because after successful upload in control panel nobody knew where they are , where they can continue etc. Automatic image category would help them and visitors of the site better orientation without my intervention
To have the possibility to have immediately the category image after the first upload would be the best addon because I should save many clicks - in fact whole this present MOD operation .
Good thing would also should be if author of the category - to put radio button in upload form - Category image   YES    -    NO ,

Hi , I can be here 5 years and will be always newbie but if you want add me to the MSN or ICQ , and I can try to help you , but I only followed the steps from the first post , I have also static category icon MOD installed so it is a little bit more difficult , but happily it works great both Mods, so when I don't put my Static icon category it takes the icon from Category Image or on the contrary .

everywhere install 1.7.3 version and newer and functions.php doesn't seem to be too much difficult , I had no problem with that , will be here at night ROME CEtime , so I can help you out lately on MSN , ICQ , I can send you the code or part from my functions.php file

Hi , this MOD does seem to be very promising.
I am unable to get this mod working on 1.7.7 , people say it is working on 1.7.6 , I believe it should be working fine in 1.7.7 too !
 I have tried and checked every changed file all the steps seem to correct .


I am not getting errors but I cant see any image beside the category , I have installed the catimage_install.php and also added $result = $cat_row; after $cat_image in categories .php

I also checked wether there is cat_image in the sql query and it is present but still I can see any image despite editing image_id in ACP multiple times .
I also tried to add  $cat_image = "blah";  and I cant see "blah" next to the cat image.

I have read the entire thread but still cant get it working any suggestions ????

1) did you enter image id at edit category page?
2) does image id stay (it actually should show you thumbnail too) after you save the category and come back at edit category page?
3) check step 4
