category: link on "symbol" - [Fixed in 3.9.7.1]

[clili74]

Hi,


how can I remove the clickable link on a symbol (category image) added from the category "additional settings" tab?


I realized that by making a copy of an existing category to create a new one, that the clickable link remains unchanged and what causes a bad redirection, brings me back to the link of the copied category ...


Best regards

Hi,
sorry but I do not understand really what you mean.
You have created a new category from an existing via Batch function?
And in the frontend has the symbol from the new category a link to the old category?

Hi,

Sorry not easy to explain, but just see if it is possible to disable the clickable link on this symbol ... from the link "title" it's still okay and sufficient. [size=78%][/size]Thank you[size=78%][/size]

PS : Small capture for all intents and purposes, if clearer to you .... apparently the copy leads to a link on the symbol (folder image) to the last subcategory, previously created ?!!

Hi,
thanks for the details (which confused me a little bit).
I need more time to check this. Could it be the result from active cache options?

But sure you can disable the symbol link. See configuration page frontend.

Ok,
Great, I hadn't seen this option, thanks.

Okay. But this is not a solution for the basic problem. 

Maybe a bug. We will check it in the next days.

[clili74]

yep, I understand ... but for me a solution while waiting....

Hi
I have just reproduced the problemIn summary it seems the copy fuction is not updating the symbol link in the new category.

Test Copy of Category testcat-wijzig
status: Before copy
Category testcat-wijzig has ID 64 and is a subcategory of topcat-sub1

Link in Symbol of testcat-wijzig

Code: [Select]

a href="/xxxx/index.php/list-jdcats/category/64-testcat-wijzig"><img src="http://localhost/jdx32/images/jdownloads/catimages/folder.png" style="text-align:top;border:0px;" alt="folder0" width="48" height="48"></a>
Link in Title of testcat-wijzig

Code: [Select]

<a href="/xxxx/index.php/list-jdcats/category/64-testcat-wijzig">testcat wijzig</a>
Now do 'Save As Copy' of Category testcat-wijzig in Backend
This creates Category testcat-wijzig(2) with ID 74 which is also a subcategory of topcat-sub1
After Copy
Link in Symbol of testcat-wijzig    UNCHANGED - CORRECT

Code: [Select]

<a href="/xxxx/index.php/list-jdcats/category/64-testcat-wijzig"><img src="http://localhost/jdx32/images/jdownloads/catimages/folder.png" style="text-align:top;border:0px;" alt="folder0" width="48" height="48"></a>
Link in Title of testcat-wijzig    UNCHANGED - CORRECT

Code: [Select]

<a href="/xxxx/index.php/list-jdcats/category/64-testcat-wijzig">testcat wijzig</a>
Link in Symbol of testcat-wijzig(2) FAULT  Symbol link has not been updated

Code: [Select]

<a href="/xxxx/index.php/list-jdcats/category/64-testcat-wijzig"><img src="http://localhost/jdx32/images/jdownloads/catimages/folder.png" style="text-align:top;border:0px;" alt="folder2" width="48" height="48"></a>
Link in Title of testcat-wijzig(2)  CORRECT link is to new category

<a href="/xxxx/index.php/list-jdcats/category/74-testcat-wijzig-2">testcat wijzig (2)[/url]

Hi Colin,

Link in Symbol of testcat-wijzig(2) FAULT  Symbol link has not been updated

I cannot understand your result. When a category is saved nothing links together with the selected symbols stored in the database. The link will only be created when the output page is builded. In the database is only the name from the selected symbol stored. No links. So can here also nothing updated. Are you sure that you have not any caches enabled?

I have tried to reproduce your result with the last version 3.9.7 but my results seems for me all correct.
