Cat Parent Name

[cch]

Hi guys,

I've added some code to my 4images to make the Cat Parent name show where I want it to but it doesn't show the corrent Cat Parent name in certain places. I don't place any images in the Main Catagories just in Sub Categories.

If you go here you will see the Cat Parent does display correctly >> http://cdcoverhideout.com/categories.php?cat_id=42

If you go here you will see the Cat Parent name doesn't display correctly >> http://cdcoverhideout.com/categories.php?cat_id=55

Now I've noticed that if a Sub Cat doesn't have any images uploaded into it, it doesn't show the correct Cat Parent name and it does when there are images uploaded into it.

Is there a way of making this show if there are no images in that Sub Cat

I went to both links and I have no idea what I was supposed to look at...but any ways, you are asking to help you with the code that you made yourself without showing us the code itself...I don't know any psychic on this forum who could possible help.

On the 1st link you will see on the same line as the Multi Upload and normal upload button this title "Blu-Ray Covers, Letter 0-9". This sub cat has images in it.

Sorry one of the links I gave was a bad example, this link http://cdcoverhideout.com/categories.php?cat_id=56 to a sub cat that has no images in it should have this title "Blu-Ray Covers, Letter N" but has this title instead "Audio Covers, Letter N" now if I upload 1 image to this sub cat it will display the correct title.

Hope this is clear, if you go here http://cdcoverhideout.com/categories.php?cat_id=31 and look at a sub cat that has images in it and look for the sub cat title and then look a sut cat without images and again look at the sub cat title and you will see what I mean

As I said, you don't give us any information about the changes you've made. What could be wrong? - there are unlimited variations of what could be wrong, I'm not even going to start guessing.

Sorry V@no it's been a while since I implemented the code, I didn't code it myself, I used this code from Jan's post here http://www.4homepages.de/forum/index.php?topic=3176.0

Any luck V@no

The code Jan provided works fine. It must be something else you've changed.
As I said two times already, without knowing exactly what changes you made, it's impossible to help.
For starters you can try create copies of functions.php, page_header.php and categories.php and rename these copies to functions.phps , page_header.phps and categories.phps, then provide the link to these files

It's been a while since I added the code so can't fully remember, I've attached the files

In categories.php find:

Code: [Select]

  "msg" => $msg,

Insert below:

Code: [Select]

  "cat_parent_name" => ($cat_cache[$cat_id]['cat_parent_id'] != 0) ? $cat_cache[$cat_cache[$cat_id]['cat_parent_id']]['cat_name'] : "",

Hi V@no

Another slight glitch, on the member_uploadform.html I have changed this

Code: [Select]

<td class="row1">{cat_name}</td>
To this

Code: [Select]

<td class="row1">{cat_parent_name} > {cat_name}</td>
It should display for example "Playstation 3 > T" but it displays "Audio > T" when you goto upload on the Playstation 3 Sub Cat "T".

Hope this is clear

[V@no]

In member.php below

Code: [Select]

    "cat_id" => $cat_id,
insert the same line as in categories.php
