Duplicate category images


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

I'm having difficulties adding images to the top of my category pages. I add one, yet from the front end there appears to be two (an exact duplicate of the first).

 

I'm adding the images via the backend (catalog > categories > edit category). The page is attached and also live here: https://www.summerblossom.com.au/9-custom-handmade-hair-accessories

 

The code I have is:

<p><a href="/50-floral-accessories"><img src="http://www.summerblossom.com.au/img/cms/category_images/CLASSIC FLOWERS.jpg" alt="Custom made classic fabric flower accessories hair clips headbands belts bridesmaids flower girls" width="299" height="433" /></a> <a href="/51-flower-crowns">

 

<img src="http://www.summerblossom.com.au/img/cms/category_images/SILK FLOWER CROWNS.jpg" alt="Custom bespoke flower crowns handmade wreaths hair garlands weddings" width="299" height="433" /></a> <a href="/52-white-label-bespoke">

 

<img src="http://www.summerblossom.com.au/img/cms/category_images/WHITE LABEL BESPOKE.jpg" alt="Bespoke bridal handmade custom wedding hair accessories headpieces" width="299" height="433" /></a></p>

 

I would like just one set of the three images to appear. 

 

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

your cat image is too small, it needs to be like 400px wide (i'm not sure the real size).  Look at the demo site and you will see what I mean.

 

Thanks for the reply. I would like to have three images (linking to three different sub categories) instead of one category header. Do you know how I would do this?

are you talking about horizontal menu at the top-ish of the site?

 

I mean the three images under the main navigation on this page: https://www.summerblossom.com.au/9-custom-handmade-hair-accessories

 

If you look at the URL the images are appearing twice each, I just want them to appear once. 

 

The images say "silk flower crowns", "white label bespoke" and "classic flowers".

Going through the rest of your site, it appears that all the others are loading correctly.  Is this the only page that you are having this problem?

 

Yep that's the only page. It's also the only page I've tried to split the category image into three different images (and put links on them).

 

Thanks for your help :)

Inside these divs,

<div class="content_scene_cat">
                <div class="content_scene_cat_bg">
                    <div class="cat_desc">

You have two further separate divs with tables inside. 

The first has id="category_description_short" class="rte".

And the second has id="category_description_full" class="unvisible rte".

Both tables have identical content.

Not sure how you did that through the "backend (catalog > categories > edit category)" But you have to lose one or the other of those divs.

Thanks mikewra for the answer. Could you please talk me through how to change that?

Hi,

I'm unable to recreate this error. So I'm not sure what you did to get this.  Searching my own pages, I'm unable to find these ids.

My best guess is that you have made "custom-handmade-hair-accessories" a subcategory of itself.  Hence it turns up with both id's "category_description_short" and "category_description_full."

Clicking on the "More" link under the second row of products has the page display correctly and "category_description_short" is hidden via style="display:none"

However, in both cases, there is no link for either White Label Bespoke or Classic Flowers.

Perhaps if you sent screen shots of where you edited this in the back office.

Thanks for the info. I'll attach screen shots of where I'm editing. 

 

I don't think the category is a sub-category of itself, from what I can see. 

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi, Sorry, didn't see the attachments the first time I looked.  My best guess on this is that you are adding three categories where there should be one category; and then perhaps 3 subcategories.  If you look at the attached image, you'll see the default layout for this: A main category and then three subcategories.

But it also appears, and I could be wrong, that you are taking three products and making them into three categories.  It doesn't seem like the products lower on the page are necessarily items in one of those three categories. 

Rather, it seems that everything on this page are all "Custom" or customizable products.  That is, the category here should perhaps be something like "Custom Bridal Hair Accessories" and then "Silk Flower Crowns," "White Label Bespoke," and "Classic Flowers" would be individual products in that category; along with the others on that page.

For reasons I don't know, putting three categories into one seems to be triggering something in the programming so that you get a "More" button underneath the duplicate rows. Again, if you look at the default layout, there is no "more" button.

It's as if the program is thinking that it's one category with a bunch of description; sorta like what you see on a manufacturer's page where under the short description of the manufacturer is a "more" button for more information on manufacturer.

That would account for why you have one id="category_description_short" class="rte" and another  id="category_description_full"

Anyway, my thought is to simplify the category into one "Custom Hair Accessories" and then add these three as products underneath. 

If you wanted to highlight these three products as distinct from the others on the page, one thing you could do is get Vekia's HTML Box Pro module and insert them into the page that way.
