Legacy All item categories not shown

[jl255]

When i first enter vbshop, only 5 out of 8 categories are shown in the tabs. Also under each tab, only a few items are shown. When I choose a different number for 'results per page', more items are shown for each tab but still not the maximum allowed. There seems to be several bugs in the display.

That is working as intended, and is due to the way pagination works. It's something we've received lots of feedback on and will be working on improving for a future version

working as intended? i believe its a bug as the items are not displayed correctly. when i first enter, only a few items are displayed even though the default is to show 25 items/page. Only after i change the items/page, then more items are shown.

when will this fix be out? it really screws up my shop and i can't quite use it until this display issue is fixed.

It's working as intended because it's currently showing 25 items spread across the various categories. Say you have 5 categories within the first 25 items; it will display 5 items per category.

That was the way it was designed, and as such it is indeed "working as intended" WAI doesn't mean "perfect design that won't be changed", it simply means it is not a bug.


That being said, we have received pretty much unanimously negative feedback on the design itself, which is why we will be changing it

There's no word on when the next feature update for vBShop will be. There will be a minor bugfix version out (hopefully) tomorrow, but it will most likely not have this change in it unfortunately, since it represents a major design revision that will need a lot of testing

Has this been updated? Im using VBshop v3.0.0b2 and it still does the same thing. How can I set the default to 100?

I also get no page numbers, just missing items.

This change was not implemented into Beta 1 or Beta 2, due to the fact that there's a vast amount of features to go through first

I've not forgotten about this, but I'll change this thread to a Feature Request regardless so that it will definitely get looked at again even if it doesn't make it into vBShop v3.0
