Product Listing - What file do I edit?

[bjraines]

I need to change a few things in my product listing. I am using the grid layout.

All the product info seems to be listed in a vertical manner. I just need to move a few things. For instance, when I use the admin the product description moves with the product name. I would like the desciption to be below the image but with the name above the image.

Thanks!

Just point me in the right direction and I should be able to figure it out.

God I love this template. I have to know who made this.

I think you either want to edit 'tpl_columnar_display.php' if you're displaying products in columns or 'tpl_tabular_display.php' if in rows. Both of these are located in 'templates\template_default\common'. Otherwise try searching for 'productListing' (or whatever is in the pages source you want to edit) in the Dev toolkit. And then take a look at the files returned in your search.

I sort of understood what you want but it always helps to see screenshots too!

yeah sorry.

the website is for a secretry in my office.

if you click on the product categories you will see how the rest is jumbled and not styled.

i have tried editing many files but just cant get it to work

i know i can move things around the admin like make the title first but the description seems to go with it.

i want to style it in the same schema as the front.

That's all in your /includes/modules/YOURTEMPLATE/product_listing.php

The name is tied with the description:

        case 'PRODUCT_LIST_NAME':
        $lc_align = '';
        if (isset($_GET['manufacturers_id'])) {
          $lc_text = '<h3 class="itemTitle"><a href="' . zen_href_link(zen_get_info_page($listing->fields['products_id']), 'products_id=' . $listing->fields['products_id']) . '">' . $listing->fields['products_name'] . '</a></h3><div class="listingDescription">' . zen_trunc_string(zen_clean_html(stripslashes(zen_get_products_description($listing->fields['products_id'], $_SESSION['languages_id']))), PRODUCT_LIST_DESCRIPTION) . '</div>' ;
        } else {
          $lc_text = '<h3 class="itemTitle"><a href="' . zen_href_link(zen_get_info_page($listing->fields['products_id']), ($_GET['cPath'] > 0 ? 'cPath=' . $_GET['cPath'] . '&' : '') . 'products_id=' . $listing->fields['products_id']) . '">' . $listing->fields['products_name'] . '</a></h3><div class="listingDescription">' . zen_trunc_string(zen_clean_html(stripslashes(zen_get_products_description($listing->fields['products_id'], $_SESSION['languages_id']))), PRODUCT_LIST_DESCRIPTION) . '</div>';
        }
        break;

I see.

How would I begin to separate the two. I am afraid to mess around with all that code. AND isn't it linked to the admin where u can change the order?

Go to the download section and get 'column grid layout' and install it. I think it will do what you want with no muss or fuss or reprogramming!

See if this is what you want www.orendaflutes.com/zencart

thats what i use already.

Its just that the item name and description are tied together so if one moves so does the other. I am trying to figure out how to fix that.
