It took me several hours to understand that default e-Commerce category list widget is not working correctly, due to incorrect working of some core functions.
Jelouse Design posted a great article on replacing WPSC category list widget with the means of default WordPress functions – WP E-commerce Category list order and more control…
I needed to customize a little the code to suit my needs.
See the following:
//here we get terms of current wpsc category. NOTE: my WPSC is placed on the page with slug 'product-page'. Replace it with yours. $terms = get_term_by('slug', preg_replace('/\/products-page\//','',$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']), 'wpsc_product_category'); // id of current wpsc category $myCat = $terms->term_id; $args = $args = array( 'orderby' => 'name', 'order' => 'ASC', 'show_last_update' => 0, 'style' => 'list', 'show_count' => 0, 'hide_empty' => 0, 'use_desc_for_title' => 1, 'child_of' => 0, 'hierarchical' => true, 'title_li' => __( 'Categories' ), 'show_option_none' => __('No categories'), 'number' => NULL, 'echo' => 1, 'depth' => 2, 'current_category' => $myCat, 'pad_counts' => 0, 'taxonomy' => 'wpsc_product_category', 'walker' => 'Walker_Category' ); wp_list_categories( $args );
This code gave me tree of categories, where current category has class ‘current-cat’
This. I just love you! THANKS!
