Product Layout Changes - Need Help!

[emtecmedia]

Hi all,

I only have a limited knowledge of PHP and I have been trying to modify the layout of my products within my shop for a couple of days now. I have managed to get the product info display page looking ok but i am having massive troubles trying to get the product listing page looking how i want it to.

I have found a site which has the exact layout I want to achieve:

Product Listing Example:
http://www.jewelrysupply.com/swarovs...vski_bead.html

Product Info Display Example:
http://www.jewelrysupply.com/index.p...roducts_id=516

I specifically want to display the Qty Discount attribute/table on the product listing page like in the examples above, but cannot figure out how to go about it.

I am using Zen Cart Ver. 1-2-7-d. can someone please help me in getting my product layout correct? Is there any modules/addons/templates out there that I can use?

Cheers,
Brad.

I would say contact the company that has the layout you would like and see if the will either give or sell it to you. That is your best bet with out paying someone to create a template like that for you.

Hi,

I thought about contacting them but I was hoping that modifying the template would be an achievable thing.

Can anyone else shed some light on it?

The file you need to modify is the following:

includes -> templates -> YOUR CUSTOM TEMPLATE -> templates -> tpl_product_info_display

You just have to find the section(s) you want to change and them move them around until you get the look you want. Using v1.2.7 is a little more difficult because of the tables. But if you upgrade to v1.3.0.1 things are a lot easier because the sections are clearly labeled with <!--BOF xxx--> and <!--EOF-->.

Making changes in this template file and your CSS stylesheet, you can get the look you want.

Thanks for the reply. I have already started altering this file and have had good progress doing so but I cannot figure out how to get the Qty Discount attribute onto the product listing page, its on the product info display page by default which is great.

I have figured out which block of code it actually is, but trying to copy and paste that into product_listing.php doesnt work, plus I dont understand where to put it in that file.

If there is anyone out there that is confident they can create this layout for me then I am happy to contract them to do it.

Please help me someone :O

Brad.
