[solved]Category Block No Plus Sign Issue (help)


Recommended Posts

When I first installed Prestashop my category block had a plus sign with a drop down menu for subcategories. Now it does not.

I have tried to copy the Category.php files back into the root directory and the theme directory hoping that would fix the problem. No luck
I have tried to copy the category modules back in also. no luck.
I have fooled around with the dynamic configuration no luck just makes the category links disappear.
I have searched Google. no luck

My site currently has all main categories with all subcategories listed below (fully expanded) in the category block.
The only small solution i have come up with is to change the display number to 1, but its only a temporary fix.

I am starting to think because i have added and deleted a few categories that might have messed up the root category. But I dont know how to fix that if so yet. Ill try and read more and maybe delete all my categories and start with 1.

Can anyone suggest how to get back the plus sign and collapsible menu?

Edit:
Well i kinda solved the problem myself. I went into my phpadmin and stated deleting categories in there. Everything was going fine until I deleted too many and didn't know how to properly create one of my own in phpadmin. So I started all over with a reinstall.

Remove "plus" sign in categories block.

 

Hi,

 

I understand you have a different question but when I searched for help regarding "removing plus sign" in categories block I found this thread.

I finally solve the problem myself.

In global.css located in your themes/yourThemeName/css/ folder edit lines:

 

/*plus sign removed, erase 2 from image name to bring it back*/

div#categories_block_left span.OPEN { background-image: url('../img/icon/less2.gif') }

div#categories_block_left span.CLOSE { background-image: url('../img/icon/more2.gif') }

 

or rename images "less.gif" and "more.gif" in icon folder.
