Hi Soda,

Thank you for this catalogue, I think it’s a good development to convert it into "mountain airfield" listing >>See there<<

I have some troubles to make it work correctly...

Firstly, I don’t know how to call the .css file and where upload it..

Secondly, I can’t create any new product documents (with [[AjouteProd]] snippet) and all documents which have been created manually in MODx manager don’t display themselves in the "Listing home" webpage

Finally I would like create others fields in each product (for me "airfield") properties but it’s not clearly explained how to do

I red correctly the "Catalogue.readme.htm" but a lot of informations are not easily understandable for me... Sorry for the inconvenience :’(

Thanks

Sorry for this later answer, and your inconvenient, I’m currently totally rewriting the catalogue with lot of improvement and an easier way to use it, so I don’t recommend the use of the older version. I have lot to do with some site developpement, I hope you can wait.

Well, I’am waiting for the newest

Thank you

While your on it..

I’m looking for something that could be very close to a catalog mecanism, but only used as a menu.

I was having a peek to your catalog but saw the obsolete warning..so

Could be great if this could be used, for example, horizontaly with any size thumbernail.

Purpose is to use it as a dynamic menu (as it could be done with WF) but having a specific an individual image over/into/below image associated to the item link/button. This image could vary and should come automaticaly If the user creates a new product page, then the menu comes out with the new thumbernail..

the link opens the corresponding page but let the menu ..hope I’m clear enought.

Thank you

The next version is planning to use template so basically you could use the template you want, I hope this answer your question, if not you could pm me (in French )

Forgive me for cross posting. But I never receive a reply in the General Support forum.

I know this is not in development at the moment but? I used catalog on a project. I need to pass a catalog item along with a email. Perhaps someone can help?

When someone submits the form I need to include the items number or title with the form.

Hum your link is break, sorry for this later answer, but give me more information, perhaps you need to edit your template to include a get or post parameter in the submit button.

Here is a good link:

http://208.109.213.16/iovinc/index.php?id=112

When someone submits the form I need to include the items number or longtitle in the form that comes back to me with the items someone has a interest in and their contact information.

thanks,

your url item page (with the form) seems to contains the id of the product , right ?
So in the form, you can include an hidden field which contain the id of the item displayed, id that you can retrieve in parameters.

What are the snippets you use to build/submit the form ?
