[Solved] Top Horizontal Menu sub category depth = 1

[yaniv14]

Hi,

 

I am trying to get the top horizontal menu to show only 1 level of sub category even if I have more sub-levels, but with no luck so far.

 

Something like block categories has (comes with that option in back office configuration).

 

Any help will be appreciated.

Hi Yani(v?)

I would have a look at the following two functions in the file:

 

/modules/blocktopmenu/blocktopmenu.php

 

private function getCategoryOption($id_category = 1, $id_lang = false, $id_shop = false, $recursive = true)

and

 

private function getCategory($id_category, $id_lang = false, $id_shop = false)

 

Probably have to make some 'depth' counter that you give to the recursive function.

 

Have a look.

 

My 2 cents,

Pascal

Hi Pascal,

 

Thank you for replying, but I am still unable to solve it.

Can you give me a hand on this one.

Hi Yaniv,

 

override

modules/blocktopmenu/blocktopmenu.php

i.e. copy this file to

/themes/<your themefolder="">/modules/blocktopmenu/blocktopmenu.php</your>

then find the function getCategory()

 

at the end of this function, add a little code (red lines): (Sorry, code layout is messed up)

 

if (count($children))

{

if ($category->level_depth <= 1) // 1 is level you still want to show

{

$this->_menu .= '<ul>';

 

foreach ($children as $child)

$this->getCategory((int)$child['id_category'], (int)$id_lang, (int)$child['id_shop']);

 

$this->_menu .= '</ul>';

}

}

$this->_menu .= '</li>';

 

 

This should do the trick.

 

Hope this helps,

Pascal

The name of the variable is $categorie, not $category. Aslo, you cannot override a module’s PHP so you have to edit the module code directly.

 

Just changing that it works perfect!

Hi Creacion,

 

Interesting, in my file I have $category and $categories, but no $categorie. do you have a french version of the file somehow?

 

Anyway, anyone who needs this, check if you have one of the two variables and use that one.

 

thanks, creacion!
