Set number of products displayed per page (support thread)

[marcopolo]

I see this thread is a bit old, however I'm trying to make the products per page mod a drop down selection? If anyone has done this can you post the code? Thanks for any help on this!

Example on how I would like ti if possible would be:
Displaying 1 to 10 (of 375 products)

The "10" above should be a drop down selection allowing the customer to select how many products to display on the page.

Look at the way Zencart displays drop-down menu, I think the function is called zend_draw_drop_down or something, should be in html_output.php

I don't see how that would work properly; except for the first group of products, that number will never be the per-page quantity. You could add a

[] Per Page

after the Displaying # to # (of ### products)

with the [] being the quantity dropdown.

It would not have to be that way, but I would assume it is possible. For example if I have it defaulted at ten the page would load products 1-10, then if the customer chooses instead of the default 10, 20 or 30 then the screen siomple refreshed and displays products up to the slected amount?


If that can not be coded right do you know how to do it your way?

You need to ask yellow1912 about that - I'm not familiar with the code involved.
