Alex Nitu Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 (edited) The left column has been enabled. Actually, everything works on left column, except category blocks, and here is what caused it, or at least the action after which it vanished. I made 2 CSV import files, one for 1 root category with two sub-categories, and the other one with the products for these 3 categories. I imported them and noticed how there were no products in the root category, but the other ones worked fine, so I used the pscleaner module to delete my catalog so I can edit them and start over. NOTE: The block was showing after I made the import, but then.... After I did that, the categories block vanished completley. It didn't reaper when i used the "reset" function and not even after enabling/disabling the block. Any other bloc from that column, however, works. Any thoughts?

vekia Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 open module configuration page (block categories). there are several options related to appearance of the categories in the block try various combinations, maybe problem is here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Nitu Posted January 30, 2015 Author Share Posted January 30, 2015 Hi Vekia, I did that and I still have no results. I even used the reset option just so it would go back to the way it was, and still no change. I just don't understand how CSV Import and Pscleaner could have damaged the categories block..

Alex Nitu Posted January 30, 2015 Author Share Posted January 30, 2015 Update: I figured out why it didn't show. It seems that the CSV file got corrupted and wouldn't place my categories in the parent/root category called "home", or in my case "echipamente electronice" (the name I typed instead of home). So, I guess this problem can be called solved, but I do have a curiosity: Is it normal for the tree to vanish if I have no categories inside? And should all categories be linked (find root) to Home and Home only? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vekia Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 yes, category block will disappear if there will be nothing to show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Nitu Posted February 1, 2015 Author Share Posted February 1, 2015 (edited) Ok, so I've been running quite a few tests to see how my category tree would look like, since it has about 1000 categories, including sub-categories and roots. It seems that the CSV file ignores the parent root, Home, most of the times and doesn't want to link my categories to it. I just see X empty categories when I access the category tab. I dare to say there might be a bug since it's not the only time I encounter this issue. I say it's a weird bug because sometimes it works and it shows my categories. Is anyone else having this problem? Edited February 1, 2015 by Alex Nitu (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
