v5 RetailCatMenu & WholesaleCatMenu .inc files

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Regarding the .inc files in PC ver 5x:
inc_RetailCatMenu.inc
inc_WholesaleCatMenu.inc
Am I correct in assuming that these two files are dynamically updated by ProductCart whenever you make additions/changes/removes from the "Manage Categories" system in the administrator panel?

If so, is there a way I can add into these files the links that were originally across the top menubar in the bootstrap_blue theme without messing up its dymamic update state?

The ones I want to add are:
Shop By Brand
Specials
Best Sellers
New Arrivals
I want to have these under the dropdown that the inc_RetailCatMenu.inc and/or inc_WholesaleCatMenu.inc appear in the shopping cart.  I need the space across the top of the PC pages for other, non-eCommerce links.

Additionally, since these links were generated in the header.asp page with the full URL with the current site folder name of "v5store" - which I will need to change to the current store folder name when I make it live, how would I insure that those links will be dynamically updated like the rest of the referenced links?

	Okaaaay..... Since there's no response to my FIRST post, how about this: Does anyone know what file(s) creates the inc_RetailCatMenu.inc and inc_WholesaleCatMenu.inc when you select the "Generate Navigation" feature in the PC v5 control panel? I want to modify them so that when I create/edit/delete categories, then generate the navigation in the control panel, I want the ProductCart system to add at the top of the menu dropdown: Shop... Shop By Category Shop By Brand Specials Best Sellers New Arrivals
