Are you using column grid? I have the same problem. All the grid seems fall apart. But I manage to find the solution to this. Compare the two code before and after replace. Take out the product description code. Replace the class with the original class then wa la! Looks great!:clap:Quote:

My explanation of the almost too easy solution for using it with NEW as well as FEATURED products is in this message:

If you view the result at:

I did go on to modify some of the HTML to get the appearance I preferred.
It is not perfect, and there does seem to be an intermittent bug where the main page is not displaying on the first try, I am suspecting that is a different problem, because it is also occurring in my old site where this mod has not been applied.

My thanks to SOKI because while I like what he did, it seem to conflict with other mods that were important to me and since he included the link to Dharam, I was able to "follow the directions" and accomplish "phase 1 AND 2"

Well this thread seems to be a little dated, but in installing this contribution. I ended up making my own edits that might be of value to others that come across this thread in the future.
I have learned in making edits to the Zen Cart (ZC) files simple is best.
I first started with making this addition to the Custom_Template/english.php
This is a global file for ZC which is loaded quite often. If I knew how to make the changes for globals to the Admin section. This edit would not be needed (any help would be appreciated)PHP Code:// Buy Now Link in Specials, New, and Featured Products listings
$specials_buy_now_link = false; // Change this to true to show Buy Now in Specials Products listings
$new_buy_now_link = false; // Change this to true to show Buy Now in New Products listings
$featured_buy_now_link = false; // Change this to true to show Buy Now in Featured Products listings
Caution: remember to save the new specials_index.php file to the Custom_Template directory under Modules
Second since the Original Contribution required another contribution to be used in conjunction, and had the side effect of breaking the box (div's for the products). I knew I had to change the Mod to work for my site. This was done by editing the code for the specials_index.php after finding this lineWe added these lines just below that linePHP Code:while (!$specials_index->EOF) {
This edit to the file makes sure that if you don't like the mod you can change back to the old way just by editing the english.php file earlier. I first off wanted the "Buy Now" to be below the ZC price. You then look for line in specials like thisPHP Code:if ($specials_buy_now_link == true) {
$buy_now_link = zen_get_buy_now_button($specials_index->fields['products_id'],'<br/> <br /><a href="' . zen_href_link($_GET['main_page'], zen_get_all_get_params(array('action')) . 'action=buy_now&products_id=' . $specials_index->fields['products_id']) . '">' . zen_image_button(BUTTON_IMAGE_BUY_NOW, BUTTON_BUY_NOW_ALT) .'</a>');
} else {
$buy_now_link = '';
}
You will be changing it to be thisPHP Code:. '</a><br />' . $products_price);
I proceeded to make these changes to the featured and new products php files. Remembering to put in the if statement for old fall back in case I decided the mod wasn't what I wanted. If anyone would like more detail for the edit I did just use the forum to contact me.PHP Code:. '</a><br />' . $products_price . $buy_now_link);

I just installed this on to my test shop, without any errors.
I modified the code for /includes/modules/new_products.php and /includes/modules/featured_products.php and neither page has changed at all.
I did the normal thing of closing down the browser and clearing all temporary files, but this did not make any difference.
Any help please?
Let me point out the error here. "neither page has changed at all"Quote:

Hi all!
I have installed this module for featured products and new products.
It works perfectly with featured products, but something does not work with new products when a product is sold out...
In the case of new products, when an item is sold out it shows the sold out image and after it a > sign; besides, it does not apply the <br/> and there is no space between the image and the product image.
I do not know if the explanation is clear... I hope so.
The website is: www.abedulart.com
Just refresh until a sold out product appears and you will see what I mean.
Any help?
Thanks!!
I have the same problem with the ">" appearing in the case of a sold out item.
Any Ideas?
Thank you

When i use the buy it now options it now puts everything out of line. eg i get
buy it now button1
Image1 ............................. link to product 1
.......................................... buy it now 2
.......................................... image 2 .......................................... link to product2
instead of all being on one line as normal.
This is a nice contribution I already applied it. but the questions is how to make the Buy Now button to go down instead of being first?
