Good morning my friend!
First of all, you got a great component. I bougth it yesterday. Only got me 2 hours to install and get to know it. It's exactly what I was looking for. I only got 2 issus that I cannot resolve on my own.
The first issue is allready discused in the forum. It's about special characters.
I have a UTF-8 feed with greek characters, it dispays as it should on the stand alone pricetapestry installation, but when I display it in my joomla content, it doesn't show the characters right. I use the latest version of pricetapestry along with Joomla 3.3.6.
And an other small issue. How can I display the items sorted by Price Asc by default when used in a shortcode in Joomla content? I searched in the forum, and change a value in the installation so now the stand alone pricetapestry displays as by Price Asc by default. But when I display the shortcodes, it uses relevance sort option. How can I change that?
Thank you in advance! :)
WOW! Thank you Both answers worked perfectly! And you answered REALY fast!!!! :) You have done some excelent job! Thank you.
I will setup my website today, I'm greatfull for the great support that you are offering!!
One more fast question. When I wan't to remove products, how do I perform the removal? Lets say I wanna completely remove a feed. Do I delete the database inputs or there's an easyest way?
THANKS FOR EVERYTHING!
Hi,
The process is simply to delete the feed from /pt/feeds/ folder. Then go to /pt/admin/ and you will see the "De-Register" link next to the old filename. Click the link to remove the registration information and all products associated with that feed from the database.
Cheers,
David.

Thats great!!! Thank you very much!!! Have a nice weekend! Love your work and support!
Hello fotisman01, and welcome to the forum!
The UTF-8 special characters issue is easily fixed - it will be down to a mis-match in collation between Price Tapestry and Joomla tables, combined with the character set of the connection. I have a patch that will modify the table collation and set the character set of the connection for standalone Price Tapestry which I will email to you in just a moment. After applying the patch and then re-importing your feed(s) the content will then display correctly in Joomla.
Regarding default sort by price ascending for shortcodes, if you edit the file plugins/content/plg_pto_content/plg_pto_content.php and look for the following code at line 48:
return pto_search();...and REPLACE with:
global $pto_sort;$pto_sort = "priceAsc";
return pto_search();
Cheers,
David.
