Need the correct link token

[lesliekirk]

Thanks Ryan,

I've almost got it. Just a small tweak for a custom field and it should be done. Here's what I used

 <mvt:foreach array="cattree_categories" iterator="category_children">
<mvt:if expr="l.settings:category_children:parent_id EQ l.settings:category:id">
<mvt:assign name="l.null" value="miva_array_insert(l.settings:subcategories, l.settings:category_children, -1)" />
</mvt:if>
</mvt:foreach>
<mvt:assign name="l.settings:subcategory_count" value="miva_array_elements(l.settings:subcategorie s)" />
<section class="o-layout u-grids-1 u-grids-2--m u-grids-3--l x-product-list" style="margin-top:16px; margin-left:0;">
<mvt:foreach iterator="subcategory" array="subcategories">
<div class="o-layout__item x-product-list__item">
<figure class="x-product-list__figure">
<picture class="x-product-list__picture container">

<mvt:item name="customfields" param="Read_Category_Code( l.settings:subcategory:code, 'daisy', l.settings:daisy )" />
<mvt:if expr="l.settings:daisy">
<span class="x-product-label"><img class="t-lazy-load-image" src="graphics/00000001/1/specials-icon.png" width="75" height="75" alt="Special Pricing"></span>
</mvt:if>
<a class="u-block u-color-black x-product-list__link" href="&mvte:subcategory:link;">

<img class="x-product-list__image t-lazy-load-image lazyload image" src="&mvte:subcategory:image;" alt="&mvte:subcategory:name; Ready to Assemble Kitchen Cabinets" loading="lazy"></a>
<mvt:item name="customfields" param="Read_Category_Code( l.settings:subcat:code, 'hp_short_desc', l.settings:hp_short_desc )" />
<div class="overlay"><a href="&mvte:subcategory:link;">&mvt:hp_short_desc; </a></div>
</picture>
<a class="u-block u-color-black x-product-list__link" href="&mvte:subcategory:link;" title="&mvte:subcategory:name;"> <figcaption class="x-product-list__figure-caption">

<span class="x-product-list__name u-color-oxide">&mvte:subcategory:name;</span>
</figcaption>
</a></figure>
</div>
</mvt:foreach>
</section>

I found my issue just by posting it here. Now to fix it.

Thanks again!

If the link still isn't working, try this:
<mvt:assign name="g.category_code" value="'your category code'" />
<mvt:do name="l.result" file="g.Module_Library_DB" value="Category_Load_Code( g.Category_Code, l.settings:current_category )" />
<mvt:do name="l.result" file="g.Module_Library_DB" value="Runtime_CategoryList_Load_Parent( l.settings:current_category:id, l.settings:sub_categories )" />

<section class="o-layout u-grids-1 u-grids-2--m u-grids-3--l x-product-list" style="margin-top:16px; margin-left:0;">
<mvt:foreach iterator="subcat" array="sub_categories">

<mvt:do name="l.result" file="g.Module_Library_DB" value="Category_Load_Code(l.settings:subcat:code, l.settings:product_list_category)" />
<mvt:assign name="l.uri:store_id" value="g.Store:id" />
<mvt:assign name="l.uri:cat_id" value="l.settings:product_list_category:id" />
<mvt:do file="g.Module_Feature_URI_DB" name="l.have_uri" value="URI_Load_Item_Canonical(l.uri, l.settings:canonical_uri)" />

<div class="o-layout__item x-product-list__item">
<mvt:do file="g.Module_Root $ '/modules/component/cmp-cssui-cattree.mvc'" name="l.success" value="CSSUI_CatTree_Load(l.settings:subcat:id, l.settings:subcat:tree_image)" />

<figure class="x-product-list__figure">

Anyway, if that's the case, then this should get you started:
<mvt:if expr="l.settings:subcategories GT 0"><mvt:else>
<mvt:foreach array="cattree_categories" iterator="cattree_category">
<mvt:if expr="l.settings:cattree_category:parent_id EQ l.settings:category:parent_id">
<mvt:assign name="l.null" value="miva_array_insert(l.settings:subcats, l.settings:cattree_category, -1)" />
</mvt:if>
</mvt:foreach>
<mvt:foreach iterator="sub_category_top" array="subcats">
<!-- your subcategory template code here -->
</mvt:foreach>

Please note that this will only generate subcategories, for categories that do not contain subcategories (remove the initial if statement if you always want to generate).

Hey Leslie,
Try: &mvte:subcat:link; for the link. What are you trying to accomplish here? Do you want to display all of the subcategories contained within the parent category of the category you're on?

I am trying to display the subcategories of a specific parent category. The mvt:assign would have the actual category code in it.

<mvt:assign name="g.category_code" value="'category_code_here'" />

I have a snippet that display all of the subcategories of a specific parent category. The problem I'm having is it uses &mvt:subcat:code;.html for the link. That creates exactly that a link with the subcategory code instead of the canonical URI.

<mvt:assign name="g.category_code" value="'category_code_here'" />
<mvt:do name="l.result" file="g.Module_Library_DB" value="Category_Load_Code( g.Category_Code, l.settings:current_category )" />
<mvt:do name="l.result" file="g.Module_Library_DB" value="Runtime_CategoryList_Load_Parent( l.settings:current_category:id, l.settings:sub_categories )" />

<section class="o-layout u-grids-1 u-grids-2--m u-grids-3--l x-product-list" style="margin-top:16px; margin-left:0;">
<mvt:foreach iterator="subcat" array="sub_categories">
<div class="o-layout__item x-product-list__item">
<mvt:do file="g.Module_Root $ '/modules/component/cmp-cssui-cattree.mvc'" name="l.success" value="CSSUI_CatTree_Load(l.settings:subcat:id, l.settings:subcat:tree_image)" />

<figure class="x-product-list__figure">

<a class="u-block u-color-black x-product-list__link" href="/&mvt:subcat:code;.html" title="&mvt:subcat:name;"> <figcaption class="x-product-list__figure-caption">

</div>
</mvt:foreach>
</section>

Is there a way to use the existing code that displays subcategories but have it display the subcategories of a specific parent category? I tried changing the EQ l.settings:category:id to EQ the category code but it didn't work.

 <mvt:foreach array="cattree_categories" iterator="category_children">
<mvt:if expr="l.settings:category_children:parent_id EQ l.settings:category:id">
<mvt:assign name="l.null" value="miva_array_insert(l.settings:subcategories, l.settings:category_children, -1)" />
</mvt:if>
</mvt:foreach>
<mvt:assign name="l.settings:subcategory_count" value="miva_array_elements(l.settings:subcategorie s)" />

<section class="o-layout u-grids-1 u-grids-2--m u-grids-3--l x-product-list" style="margin-top:16px;">
<mvt:foreach iterator="subcategory" array="subcategories">
<div class="o-layout__item u-text-center x-product-list__item">

<figure class="x-product-list__figure">
<!-- this needs to be changed
<mvt:item name="customfields" param="Read_Category_Code( l.settings:subcategory:code, 'daisy', l.settings:daisy )" />
<mvt:if expr="l.settings:daisy">
<span class="x-product-label"><img src="graphics/00000001/LittleDaisy_transparent.png" alt="Discount Daisy" style="width:37px; height:37px;"></span>
</mvt:if>
<mvt:if expr="l.settings:subcategory:image">
<a href="&mvt:subcategory:link;"><img class="x-product-list__image t-lazy-load-image" src="&mvt:subcategory:image;" alt="&mvt:subcategory:name;" width="370" height="292"></a>
</mvt:if>
-->
<h2 class="u-color-oxide" style="font-size:1.2rem; font-weight:bold;"><a href="&mvt:subcategory:link;">&mvte:subcategory:na me;</a></h2>

</figure>
</div>
</mvt:foreach>
</section>

Suggestions are welcome, please.
