Need Help Again- Column Grid Layout...

[Kaniki]

Hi again!! I feel like a tick- but I just can't help it... I have found many many issues in forum discussing the column grid layout- but I can't seem to pin down my exact solution....

I successfully installed the 3 column grid layout!!

Don't laugh- I was scared to mess up how far I've gotten...

Anyway!! I'll give a link at bottom.. So you can see what I have and what I am trying to do....

I would like to have on my sub category pages- 3 columns and as many rows as needed to display products...

What I have now- is only two products added- and it looks like I need to re-size my images yet again- to accomplish the 3 across layout...

But- what I want to have is this:

3 images of products in a row- with a small description- not the whole descriptions- and a link that says more information.... Sooo- the visitor can just scroll through all product images on the page- and if interested- can click on the thumbnail to find out more or to puchase...

Also- after I installed- I noticed I have no "padding" just below where it says "displaying 1 of 2 products.... This must be in the css...

If anyone can help- I would be super super happy!!

And yes- I do realize my images are still a bit too big- so I have to find a way to adjust this- and which image is which in the images settings....

the link is here- for the page I am "testing"... and working on....

me again.. Also- how can I just get rid of that "Displaying 1-2 products of 2 products" completely??? I'm looking everywhere in my admin!!

Thanks for all the help everyone!!! Hopefully I can come back in and contribute.. Been taking LOTS of notes!!!

I am looking everywhere... And still can't figure out why this is not showing " more info...." under my image and title... It should if I remove all of the add to cart buttons- the extra's the description and everything else right???

And still can't find answers to the rest....

STILL DIGGIN!! :)

I'm not sure what the question is. I'm seeing three products across, each with a snippet of description, price, 'more info' link, and a Buy Now button. What don't you want there ?

Find .navSplitPagesResult {} in your stylesheet, and add:

.navSplitPagesResult {display:none;}

or

.navSplitPagesResult {margin:0 0 1em 0;}

Hi there... I got it fixed in the WEEEEE hours of this morning- before I had a chance to come back in and reply!!!

I ended up editing some php files and some settings in my admin both!!

The only two things I'm having issues with now- is that for some reason- I have messed up a setting for my shopping cart...

When you click add to cart- the cart page comes up- and it is showing qty- weight- and pounds and price in BOLD right at top of the shop cart box.... I'm sure I'll find where I screwed that up though.. That part is not needed because shipping is included in price of all of our items..

The other "little" tweak- is that on my sub category pages- I really don't like it showing 1 to 3 products ( of 3 products ) on the top and bottom left of the products... And it's tight on top of the products display!!

Sooo- looking for resolve these couple things.... :)

Everytime I think I've got it- I find another thing to tweak!! Whew!!

Thanks bunches!!

Admin - Configuration - Layout Settings - Shopping Cart - Show Totals
and, again:

Find .navSplitPagesResult {} in your stylesheet, and add:

.navSplitPagesResult {display:none;} to remove it

or

.navSplitPagesResult {margin:0 0 1em 0;} to make some space.

THANK YOU Stevesh!!

Question: If I display none- on the navsplitpagesresult--- will it affect any other navigation or just this part in the sub category pages???? Sorry- it might seem like a very simple question to you- but I'm still learning the "lingo" for the zen pages!!!

AND thank you - thank you- on the layout settings... I saw that- and thought if I turned it off- to zero- that it wouldn't show in the "basket- cart" itself... Didn't think to remove it from there!!

Thanks soooo much!!!

I did however get to read TONS AND TONS of tutorials and forum questions and answers last night.. Learned a lot if that makes any difference!!

Everything that you and everyone has helped me with WORKED!!! Of course :) Eureka!!

Only thing I just can't figure out "NOW" *smiles* is why on my sidebar- in "My shopping Cart" - that the link to the item in the cart- ( if you add an item to cart ) shows up as either green or purple....

Anyone care to give me a heads up on what I am missing? I am sure it's in the css stylesheet somewhere- but for the life of me- am having a very long blank moment- and just can't figure out which part it is - to change this color....

Thanks bunches!! You have no idea how much I appreciate all the help I get on here... Hope I can help later!! I have really good notes!!!

Fixed It!! It was in my style sheet- yet again- and this time- I went to firefox- and re downloaded the web developer tools!! Showed me exactly where my problem was!!

It was carnewitem.... The color was terrible...

Thanks Everyone... This column grid layout is awesome- and the "new products page layout" I found in another forum!!

A huge thanks to everyone who creates these mods- the fixes- and has the answers!!! :)
