How to use Layered Navigation
Hello All,
Could someone give me some pointers in locating and using the layered
navigation feature.
I've enabled the associated code in
specialpurpose/ecommerce/widget/CatalogScreens.xml and I'm not seeing
anything different with viewing the gizmo and widget categories, in
ecommerce component, as compared to when layered navigation was disabled.
https://cwiki.apache.org/OFBIZ/main-new-features-in-2009.html tells me,
"...One of the biggest featured introduced in Ecommerce and which was
"Layered Navigation of Categories." Layered navigation in an Ecommerce
application allows the user to filter the product listing based on
categories, features and price ranges. The user can apply multiple filters
to the given product listing. He can narrow or expand his search and try
different filter combinations so as to find the desired product...."
Where do I find this filter? How/where do I go about creating multiple
filters?
tia

Hello Wai,
You might be looking at some other code (definitely so when you have
downloaded the trunk recently) than the document in the url you provided is
referring to.
Please have a look at all improvements by looking at:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/Main+New+Features
which states all improvements since version 04.
Regards,
Pierre

thanks, that was what I allready found. So It seems that this future is just
to be coded. But nothing difficult. Thanks.

And I also have the question, if there is a GUI to configure the layered
Navigation / Product filter.
I think I have to do it with the application/ecommerce files, cause the
Price ranges (min, max prices), color and categorie filter are implemented
there (hardcoded), so i think there is no GUI, right?
Kindly

Ok I got a step on it, cause it could not resolve the GenericValue class I
just deleted the call in:
LayeredNavigation.groovy
/ if (productCategoryRollups) {
for (GenericValue categoryRollup : productCategoryRollups) {
categoryConstraint = new
ProductSearch.CategoryConstraint(categoryRollup.parentProductCategoryId,
true, false);
if (searchConstraintList.contains(categoryConstraint)) {
previousCategoryId = categoryRollup.parentProductCategoryId;
context.previousCategoryId = previousCategoryId;
}
}
}/
without it, it works, so for what is that part?
