    Default Better Categories

    Hi there,

    Does the old better categories plugin work with 1.3.7? If so does anyone have a copy of the zip file?

    Thanks

    Why not use the new one in the downloads designed for 1.3.7 HERE?

    Is it possible to have a different css used in your better categories mod for each category. I am looking to have different colour backgrounds through out the site for each category and its sub categories. Can this also be reflected in the bettercategories css.


    Could I put the styles into the main style sheet and into the category style sheet and therefore use the existing naming conventions.

    If so what is determining the stylesheet used?

    Thanks

    If I understand you correctly you want each page to have a different backgound colour depending on categories.
    It wouldn't really have anything to do with the bettercategories mod.

    You could start with the productlisting page
    Test for the current category & with a big if statement set the class that is used for that page. That class would then be used for the background colours.
    It would be a bit hard coded but it could be done.
    Use a separate css file for this stuff
    There would be a number of exceptions that could bite you and cause some grief.
    Good luck
