Layout and design

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone,

I created a category with no subcategories so a customer can click on it and see past customers work I have done. (custom picture framing). I would like 4 or 5 pics across and several rows down. Like a gallery, with no layout or prices. This is the only page I want to do this to. Any advice would be appreciated.

Unless you feel up to modifying your product_listing to do a completely different layout for that 1 page, which is a lot of unnecessary extra work, you'd be better off making that as its own page and sticking it in the information box or something, rather than making it a new category in your category listing... This way you can make the layout however you want, and the information box is a more appropriate location for a portfolio gallery anyway :)

its not hard to do this at all for ex:

 

if ( $cat_id == whatever your catid is you want to do this ) {

include('includes/modules/product_listing_column.php');

} else {

include('includes/modules/product_listing.php');

}

 

You would need the product columns mod and then you would need to replace this in the index.php file where it calls to the current product_listing command.

 

This is not a 100% working demo just a quick idea how easy it would be.
