Comstock Template

[damiantaylor]

That fixed it! Thanks Clyde.

Can I ask another question?
I've been trying to change the background colour of the categories in my categories sidebox but am having no luck at all.
I've searched the forums and found the colour is currently set to #9a9a9a so I searched all the css files and changed them whereever I found that colour but it had no effect.

Can you tell me where the category background colour is controlled? I'd like to change it to a background image if that's possible.

Thanks again for all your help Clyde!

Background color for the categories is set in stylesheet_betterCategoriesEzInfo.css and is set to #ccc

Hi Clyde, I'm getting quite far tweaking my site now but could you help me with a php question please?

I've highlighted which category was selected by the user by re-instating SPAN.category-subs-parent and SPAN.category-subs-selected into the style sheet and changing the colour of the selected category text.

However, the above spans don't effect special categories such as 'New Products' and 'All Products' so I'm trying to add that functionality.
In tpl_categories.php you can tell which category or subcategory was selected by the user with the code:
if ($box_categories_array[$i]['current'])

Is there an equivalent method to tell which special category was selected?

Thanks again!

Regards,
Damian

in tpl_categories.php the handling of New, Special, ALL and Featured products is handled on lines 75 - 117.

That is the section(s) where you will need to make whatever edits you are working.

I've found the code you mentioned thanks, but I'm still not sure how I can tell if the user has clicked any of the special categories.
Is there a variable I can test to check if, for example, the user has just clicked 'New Products'?

Thank you!

I'm not sure I understand exactly what it is you're trying to accomplish.

You might want to ask in the better categories sudebox support thread

I am using 1.3.8

Just installed the Comstock template. All is well except my product description moved from the top to the bottom of the page on product pages. How can I get it back on top?
