Increasing Product Filter Ranges

General General Questions
1

I have a block that has product filter in it. One of the filters is a Brands filter.



By default, CS only shows like 4 or 5 of the brands before you have to click the “more” button.



I’ve been able to increase that to 20 brands, but I want this to be more. I’d like to just be able to set it to whatever I want.



I think the ranges are set in core/fn.catalog.php, but for the life of me I can’t figure out what to change.



Does my question make any sense to you guys?



I’d appreciate any help you can give.



Thanks,



Brandon

Have a look in the config.php file for this:

// Product filters settings

define(‘FILTERS_RANGES_COUNT’, 4);

define(‘FILTERS_RANGES_MORE_COUNT’, 20);



I think you need to change the FILTERS_RANGES_COUNT

John,



Thank you for pointing that out. For some reason I haven’t really taken a very good look at config.php



There are a lot of settings in there.



But, unfortunately, no matter what I changed that to, I didn’t get any more features.



Any other ideas?



Thanks,



Brandon

Huh, well I guess I was wrong. I changed those setting and now everything works fine.



Not sure why it didn’t work at first, I even cleared my cache.



Oh well, at least it is working now.



Thanks for the help,



Brandon

This seems to be what I need, I’d like to change the filters range from 4 to 10. However, if I understand some of the discussions about hooks and updates properly, I should be doing this change with a hook. right?



Can anyone help me with how exactly to do that? TIA
