I had implemented the following code 2 months back so that when anybody landups on www.aristotleprep.com/products , the "GMAT Verbal" category opens by default.I checked today and saw that when you go to www.aristotleprep.com/products now, the default category does not open. Can you please help me out with this urgently as this could be one of the reasons why our sale has dipped badly in the last few weeks

xProductBrowser("categoriesPerRow=3","views=grid(3 ,3) list(10) table(20)","categoryView=grid","searchView=list"," style=","defaultCategoryId=2640002");
// ]]></script></div>

Hi,
Please check the source of your page. It has two different "Product Browser" widgets installed.

The first one with the default category assigned:

<div><script type="text/javascript" src="http://app.ecwid.com/script.js?926016"></script><script type="text/javascript">// <![CDATA[</p>
<p> xProductBrowser("categoriesPerRow=3","views=grid(3,3) list(10) table(20)","categoryView=grid","searchView=list","style=","defaultCategoryId=2640002");
// ]]&gt;</script></div>

and the second one without default category:

<div> <script type="text/javascript"> xProductBrowser("categoriesPerRow=3","views=grid(3,3) list(10) table(20)","categoryView=grid","searchView=list","style=");</script></div>

That's why the default category does not open.


Do you use our WordPress plugin? Did you modify the "Store" WordPress page? What code does it have now?

Thank you very much for the quick response. I do not know how is the code for "without default category" appearing in the source code. I have the following code in my "products"(using it in place of the store page) page that i am using for the storefront. And yeah, I am using the wordpress plugin

<div><script type="text/javascript" src="http://app.ecwid.com/script.js?926016"></script><script type="text/javascript">// <![CDATA[
xProductBrowser("categoriesPerRow=3","views=grid(3 ,3) list(10) table(20)","categoryView=grid","searchView=list"," style=","defaultCategoryId=2640002");
// ]]></script></div>
[ecwid_script] [ecwid_minicart] [ecwid_searchbox] [ecwid_categories] [ecwid_productbrowser] <!-- Ecwid code end -->

Just figured out an alternate solution. Updated the "Default Category ID" in the Ecwid settings page in the wordpress backend and voila! the problem is fixed.
Was wondering that when the default category id can be set this easily, what is the need to put that piece of code ?

If you use our WordPress plugin, then you don't need to modify any code to set a default category - just use the the "Default Category ID" option in the WordPress plugin's settings page. The code editing is necessary if only Ecwid is inserted manually without our plugins.

If you use our WP plugin, then the correct code is as follows:

[ecwid_script] [ecwid_minicart] [ecwid_searchbox] [ecwid_categories] [ecwid_productbrowser] <!-- Ecwid code end -->
