Products misaligning

[nvisages]

I've copied the same product a number of times (not a link to the product but an exact duplicate product) to see how it will look on the page ... but I noticed that when products are next to one another, they're not lined up and more importantly, sometimes the price shows and sometimes it doesn't, even though they are the exact same product with the exact same description and price.

Help?

Thank you so much for taking a look at this, I appreciate it!

The space you have for your products is pretty narrow. Produt Titles are wrapping and the # of characters displaying in the product description are throwing things off a bit too.

Can you limit the # of products per row to 2 (Template Monster template may have this hard-coded, otherwise it's a simple adjustment in admin). This may take care of it.

Otherwise, you'll to put character limits on product name and descriptions.

How I could make the center column wider? That might fix it.

How do I limit the number of products per row to 2? I looked under Layout Settings and Maximum Values but don't see where to change this.

Thanks so much for your help, I really appreciate it!

I would be hesitant to alter the column width (without having looked at all the sytlesheets that TM uses).

In admin - product listing set columns per row to 2

Hi, I hope somebody can help me with this.
I don't know what i did, but under my Admin>configuration>Product listing, I'm missing 'Product Listing-Column per row' selection.

Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks in advance,
Bimo

You'll need to install this mod:

Thanks so much for continuing this dialog, Tina!

I figured out what's going on but still don't know how to fix it. The first column seems to have allowed a few pixels more width for the description than the other two columns. Would you know where I can go in and fix that?

Separately ... In admin - product listing my control panel doesn't have "columns per row"

Here's what I have:

Display Product Image 1
Display Product Manufacturer Name 0 Info
Display Product Model 0 Info
Display Product Name 2 Info
Display Product Price/Add to Cart 3 Info
Display Product Quantity 0 Info
Display Product Weight 0 Info
Display Product Price/Add to Cart Column Width 125 Info
Display Category/Manufacturer Filter (0=off; 1=on) 0 Info
Prev/Next Split Page Navigation (1-top, 2-bottom, 3-both) 3 Info
Display Product Listing Default Sort Order Info
Display Product Add to Cart Button (0=off; 1=on; 2=on with Qty Box per Product) 1 Info
Display Multiple Products Qty Box Status and Set Button Location 0 Info
Display Product Description 150 Info
Product Listing Ascending Sort Order + Info
Product Listing Descending Sort Order - Info
Include Product Listing Alpha Sorter Dropdown true Info
Include Product Listing Sub Categories Image true Info
Include Product Listing Top Categories Image true Info
Show SubCategories on Main Page while navigating

I figured out why the prices weren't coming up ... when I copied the products over, I guess the prices were not automatically copied over ... they were blank.

But still having the weird column alignment thing going on. The first column seems like it's given a wider space for the description text than the other columns for some reason and I don't know where to fix that.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Thanks so much for your input! I installed the module you suggested but don't know what it does :) I thought maybe it would give me the "columns per row" option but no.

What should I do next? Thanks again!

That should have given you the option for columns per row.
Did you do the install sql (I think there is one with that mod).

You will need to find the stylesheet | coding that TM is calling to set the width of those fields and adjust to taste.

First, you need to know that Zencart wil load all stylesheets with the .css extension that are located in the CSS folder of the active template.

If you replace a stylesheet, don't name it stylesheetold.css and leave it there. Either move it to another folder, or name it something like stylesheet.old.

You may have stylesheets that are fighting each other.


There is a sql file that needs to be run in order for that mod to work.
