Feedbag Posted July 21, 2004 Posted July 21, 2004 I want to change the way the layout is when you click on a product category or a brand name. Right now it simply lists them straight down in three column format. What file is this template in? Thank you so much.
madyson3 Posted July 21, 2004 Posted July 21, 2004 Two places that I know you can change it. 1.) In the admin panel you can change how many catagory images to display per row. Go to Configuration->Maximum Values->Categories to list per row. 2.) You can change the whole layout in catalog\index.php HTH.

Feedbag Posted July 21, 2004 Author Posted July 21, 2004 what is the includes/modules/product_listing.php page do then?
madyson3 Posted July 21, 2004 Posted July 21, 2004 I believe that is how the products are displayed. Not the catagory images. See you on the dark side, Kristy I'm just a girl living in captivity Your rules of thumb makes me worrisome
madyson3 Posted July 21, 2004 Posted July 21, 2004 If you are wanting to change the layout of how the products appear then it depends on how you want them to look. I wanted a more thumbnail or overstock.com look so I used the contribution: listing module. You can look at my site for an example: House of de Don See you on the dark side, Kristy I'm just a girl living in captivity Your rules of thumb makes me worrisome
Guest Posted July 21, 2004 Posted July 21, 2004 You might also want to check out the excellent STS template system in the contribution section, if you've a bit of experiene using an HTML editor it can make picking up and placing boxes and other structures on your page a lot easier, but I don't reccoment it to complete begginners. Good luck. Sean sts template link :)
Feedbag Posted July 21, 2004 Author Posted July 21, 2004 This is basically the layout I was trying to get: http://www.houseofdedon.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=27_36 As for the template systems, I wa afraid they'd slow down the site? Am i right or am I wrong? Thank You!
Guest Posted July 21, 2004 Posted July 21, 2004 This is basically the layout I was trying to get: http://www.houseofdedon.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=27_36 that's not so far away from the 'out of the box' setup really. As for templates slowing things down I can only speak for the STS template system - and I have not noticed any change - possibly stripping out unrequired items might even have the reverse effect possibly?
madyson3 Posted July 22, 2004 Posted July 22, 2004 I used the listing module contribution for that look. I think it's in the template section. I haven't seen a slow down problem. See you on the dark side, Kristy I'm just a girl living in captivity Your rules of thumb makes me worrisome
madyson3 Posted July 22, 2004 Posted July 22, 2004 Also with this contrib you have the following display options in admin (after you install it): Product image Manufacturer Model Name Price Quantity Weight Buy it now Manufacturer filter box Location of Prev/next nav bar HTH See you on the dark side, Kristy I'm just a girl living in captivity Your rules of thumb makes me worrisome
