    Default How to make listings within categories to appear as tumbnails(like new products box)?

    Hello guys!

    I'm a total newbie to ZenCart and I have a lot of stupid questions to ask!

    This is my first ! ( I hope it doesn't get me banned for stupidity)

    I'm using a not so much customized cart and I can't find a way to make the listings in the category pages to appear as tumbnails(like they do in the (new listings page)

    I checked the FAqs and didn't find ana answer...

    Please help!

    Thank you!

    There are no stupid questions, only stupid answers, as you will soon see.

    Listings in all parts of Zen Cart should use thumbnail images by default, if I recall correctly. So check that they are set to do so in your admin. Go to...
    admin/Configuration/Product Listing and set Display Product Image to 1 (that's the numeral one).

    Also be aware that the product listings don't use the same template (means they won't be laid out the same) as the new, featured and special listings. If you'd rather they all looked the same you can add a mod to do that. Look in the Free Software Add Ons (link top-left of any forum page) for the Single Listing Template mod.

    Thanks for the quick reply....

    I actually want all product listings to look like New listing, eatured listing and Special listing ... Showing only a tumbnail picture, product name and price

    From the description of the Single Listing Template Add-on it does the opposite thing

    Correct me if i'm wrong

    Thanks!

    You can tweak the layout to work as you want. The Single Listing Template mod will make them uniform. It may be possible to modify that to use one of the other listings as a model... I haven't looked at its code so don't know for sure.


    OK, good to hear:)
