categories display-layout issues

[joez5374]

Hi,

Here are my specs:
zencart 1.3.8
Dreamweaver cs4
www.joezjewellery.com

I'm trying to have the the categories show with only the image I've created - no text (categories title).

Also, when I go to a product page the text then shows up as a link below the image. I would like that to be removed also since the image is a link in it's self.



Thanks all for your help.

To eliminate the category name in the subcat listing grid, you will need to edit /includes/modules/your_template/category_row.php. Find this around line 39:

    $list_box_contents[$row][$col] = array('params' => 'class="categoryListBoxContents"' . ' ' . 'style="width:' . $col_width . '%;"',
                                           'text' => '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT, $cPath_new) . '">' . zen_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $categories->fields['categories_image'], $categories->fields['categories_name'], SUBCATEGORY_IMAGE_WIDTH, SUBCATEGORY_IMAGE_HEIGHT) . '<br />' . $categories->fields['categories_name'] . '</a>'); 

and delete the
. '<br />' . $categories->fields['categories_name']
near the end.

You would edit the product info page file at
<!--bof Category Icon -->

in a similar manner.

If you want to eliminate the category heading above the category image on the product listing page, add to your stylesheet

hi#productListHeading {display: none;}

this worked fine! thanks. S

PS there is typo in your text hi#... should be h1#... Just in case someone else tries this.

for any one with the same issue here is how I finally removed the text below the image:
go to this file in your overide folder
public_html/store/includes/templates/custom/templates/tpl_modules_category_icon_display.php

remove this text:
$category_icon_display_name .

That's it!

Good for you for finishing this on your own! I thought there might be a separate file referenced from the main product info file, but didn't take time to hunt it down last night.
And thanks for catching the typo. When the eyes get bleary they can be hard to see.

The category_row.php edit will not actually do anything in your store, as it only affects category/subcategory listings. All of your categories are top cats, so there will be no category listing pages.
