Problem to use module Cataloger

Post by pi314159 »

Hello everyone!
I need to make a simple catalog of products on my site and my attention was moved to "very powerful" module Cataloger, but I didn't find any way to add a content for each category or category item. Show me the way to do this, please.

Cataloger is a content type module, so the 3 types of contents it generates can be found on the Content Type: dropdown when you create a new page/content. HTH

Thank you, Jo Morg, for your reply. But I still didn't understand, how can I add content like short description and full description for each category and its item. When I go to Content->Pages->Add New Content and select type of page as Item page(or Category Page)in drop-down menu, the interface of editing page changes and there is no textarea for input page content, as in simple Content page. In new interface I can only edit these fields:
1. Title
2. Menu text
3. Parent
4. Page Template
5. Sub - Template
and can upload images for each item and set Cataloger's options/permisions and no more.
Where can I add HTML content for Item Page(or Category Page) ?
Thank you!

a) Go to: Extensions -> Cataloger;
b) Read Cataloger's help;
c) Go to: Manage User-Defined Attributes;
d) Add any needed attributes
e) add page contents;
etc... etc.

As with any module and the Core itself: read help.
