Product position in category

[s.goluchowski]

hi,

I hope someone can help me.

 

Where is write produkt position if I set it using product position in category?

 

Thank you

In the product list, filter by category at the top, then you can move products around with the arrows under the position column

Hello, I followed this instruction, thank you.

 

But in my case the products do not stay at there place. If I move them around they are in the right position in the back-end. And there comes a message "Changes saved" or so. But if I look at the front-end the position of the products are like before - they are not sorted like I want. If I go back to the back-end, the positions are also like before. It seems to me that the position is not saved in the database. In the Error-Log appearing following entries:

Do you have any idea what is going on? Thank you.

 

Ah, I should mention it is PS 1.6.1.0

Hello again.

 

I found the solution for me. We have imported the products from a modified shop, the position number are sometimes the same in one category. It seems that the script can not handel the change of positions if there are same position numbers in one category. I now use the triple edit to correct the position numbers.

Hi to all of you.

 

This is the last solution for me and I hope I will find some clues or answers regarding my problem.

I did try to find answers by looking for different keywords for this topic and by Google it but nothing seems to be working for me.

 

Here is the thing:

I am not so much newbe with Presta but this is over my head.

 

I'm on PS 1.6.1.5 (fresh not update)

php 5.4.45

 

My previous PS was 1.5

 

I installed new PS version and copied SQL table by table (not all i needed) to new version, some I found have changed so after hours spend on finding solutions finally I got them working fine I suppose. I included all development updates from github docs which affected sql.

 

Untill now all is ok and fine BUT I am struggling with one issue.

Sorting in the category is my problem.

Some sorting in the categories seems to be working just fine without any problems, but some are not.

In example:

 

issue-1 When sorting, all appears sorted as I wish in the BO (even after refresh) but when I go to FP it looks totally different, I could not find logical comparison why it is sorted in this or other way.

 

issue-2 Sometimes when I change product position in the BO category, when I refresh it goes back as it was before

 

Issue-3 I found products which are not suppose to be in certain category but I see them on the FP (but they do not appear in the BO it this category, they are not attached to it)

 

Here is what I did:

Sorting in the admin i set by inside the category

Went to sql to category_product and I looked for some specific product ID's, answer-> I didn't see they are doubled or anything like that. One Id has one position in one category, but in the FP I see it on two different categories. Only connector is that one is mother cat and other i sub. cat.

 

Went to _product and _product_shop -> same, product attached to one category.

 

I installed this script (it helped to someone) but all there looks fine, from the database all is sorted as it should be and I can not see any mess there.

 

I cleared cache by presta/admin and manually by ftp, also cleared, browser etc. also...

 

NOTHING!

 

What is funny is that some categories are sorting normally (clue-> always sub cat.) but others (mother cat.) only to the halfway.. or they are sorted but not showing in the FP.

 

 

I am fed up, I lost few days on such a silly problem but I can not run shop like that..

 

----

BO -back office

FP - front page

 

Please.. HEEELP!!!

Hello you all,

I just updated to 1.6.1.6 and need some help here, it does not appear in my BO the field to sort position for the category menu. 

Attached is a picture of the screenshot.

Any clue how to solve it?

Thank you in advance!!

It's because you're in the "All shops" context. You need to switch to a specific shop before you can sort.

Hi,

 

I have the same problem within PS 1.6.1.7 with the category position.

I put the subject into the "forum bugs" but no answer ...

 

To make changes I did it inside DB by changing the position number for reordering the products. It is a little bit long but ...

 

It's seem to be a bug in PS 1.6.1.7 but this functionality did't have success to be solved.
