[SOLVED]Problem with Products Category module with the new default theme

[Snade]

Hello everyone,

me and couple of other guys( http://www.prestasho...__fromsearch__1 ) are having problems with the Product categories module.

 

The module is overlapping other content and the prev and next buttons doesnt work.

 

In my case, the module is out-of-the-box, so no changes made to it.

 

Adding

overflow: auto

fix the overlapping problem, but that's not the solution.

 

here is the code for previous button

<a id="productscategory_scroll_left" href="javascript:{}" title="Previous" style="cursor: default; opacity: 0;">Previous</a>

 

as you see the href is just

javascript:{}

 

Live example with added overflow:auto here:

http://eki-boutique....p?id_product=19

 

I've tried different approaches to fix this, but without any success. I'm sure I'm missing something, but dont have a clue what exactly it is.

 

 

Thank you very much for the help.

At first glance I see one of your problems is that you have an incorrect css link to your arrows.

 

Here is the correct css

#productscategory_scroll_right {
   background-image: url("../img/thumbs_right.gif");
}

 

You will need to do the same for the left arrow as well.

 

Hope that helps!

Hi, thanks for the reply, I will take a look at that, but generally this doesnt make things any better. The module is still not functional.

 

 

edit: Actually your reply did helped, I've checked again the css and noticed that the css is loaded from the theme, not the module it self. And as it turns out, the css for this module that comes with the new default prestashop theme is "broken".

Ok, problem solved.

It seems like the 1.5 theme for 1.4.5.1 comes with own css for products category module.

But that css is not enough for the module to work properly. ( only 16 lines)

 

In order the module to work, you need to delete his css file in the theme(/themes/prestashop_new/css/modules/productscategory), leaving the original css from the module.

Thanks Snade! Glad you got it to work correctly.
