So their is a new update for CataBlog, it is basically all cosmetic. The lightbox now has prettier next and previous links and the animation was sped up a bit because it seemed sluggish when flipping through a lot of pictures. More importantly I have redone the base CSS classes for the CataBlog rows, being more specific in regards to position and display properties. If this update breaks anything it might be your custom CSS classes, simply make sure to add !important right before the semi-colon of any CSS property that isn't working. Cheers!

I love the plugin! It seems to be working well.
One thing that would be really useful, would be if we could from the “Manage Catablog” page hide a product from view temporarily. Let’s say if a product got sold out for a while, but we did not want to delete it.
If there is a way for me to do this I am not aware of feel free to email me back.
Also, I have been experimenting with the catalog mode and I entered prices & style numbers; for some reason the paypal button is not showing up. I entered the price format like 1.00 – no currency, etc.
I am using the 0.8.9 version
Thanks!
Hi Lucy,
There was a regression introduced in version 0.8.9 that may very well be causing you to not see the buy now button. The temporary fix for this bug would be to add a margin-left to the PayPal button’s form inside each CataBlog row…don’t worry if you don’t know CSS, the code is right below. Just make sure that the pixel value is ten more then your thumbnail size to make everything line up nicely.
Hope that helps, Cheers!

Hi,
A great job that you’ve done here 😉
I would need to display prices in price format like 1.00 (and even better: 1,00).
But have no clue, just a dead end (in my case) in lib/CataBlog.class.php :
wp_error(‘The item price must be a positive integer’);
Can you say if this functionality will be included in an upcoming release ? Or a maybe just an advice will be fine …
Thanks in advance for your help !

You are very correct – it was the theme. At first I didn’t think to peek at it in another theme, but when I did the button showed up. Very cool!
