Go to your includes/modules/new_products.php file. Open it up. Find the number that should be changed appropriately. The default is a '2', which will show three columns because the counter starts at 0.

 

Find:

$col ++;

 

if ($col > 2) {

$col = 0;

$row ++;

}

?>

 

Change the "2" to a "3" (without quotation marks). Hope this helped.

hi guys.

 

do you know how to change rows by columns? i mean i want to list my nine products in a column by product, not in rows like actually .

 

thanks a lot.

Go to your catalog/includes/modules folder, right-click new_products.php, and right click in a blank area, and select "paste" so you have a copy of it just in case it goes bad.

 

Then just switch the "col" to "row", and the "row" to "col". So it looks like this:

 

$row ++;

if ($row > 2) {

$row = 0;

$col ++;

 

 

I have no idea if this will work, since I don't use this new_products feature. But that's what I'd do -- I'd tinker around with it, upload it, refresh my browser. Tinker around with it, reupload, and refresh my browser, etc., etc., until I got it right.
