Having more than 1 "stand-out" category

[shirster]

Hi guys and girls,

I've made 1 of my categories stand out following the instructions in tpl_categories.php, my question is, is it possible to have more than 1 category that stands out using this method?

Thanks in advance !

Looks to me like you would just copy and paste another set of that code that you uncommented in the tpl_categories.php file. That is, where you uncommented the

 case ($box_categories_array[$i]['path'] == 'cPath=3'):
$new_style = 'category-holiday';
break; 

lines, you copy that and paste it in one or more times, each time making sure you change the cPath=3 part to reflect your category's id number. As far as I know you can make as many case statements as you needed this way.

And you can change

$new_style = 'category-holiday';

to

$new_style = 'category-halloween';

or anything you want in each of those cases, if you want them to look different from each other.
Just style each class in your stylesheet:

a.category-holiday {}
a.category-halloween {}
a.category-easter {}
...

Thanks guys, I actually tried that before posting, but it turns out that I made a typo in the stylesheet hence it didn't work (-_-')

Thanks for your help ! (^v^)
