Sorry, I also forgot to ask....

If I decide to remove this, how do I get the solid divider lines back?

thank you,

There are no solid divider lines. There are only NO lines (default zen-cart) or the dotted lines that come with CDP.

I'm not sure what you mean by your last question. You simply upload the files in the zip to your template. tpl_monthly_display.php is one of the files that will be accessed by this contrib as it uses its own version of the file.

Sorry about that! I don't know why I had it in my head at the time that Zencart default has solid lines.

The reason I asked about the uninstall is because now that I have uninstalled both the CDP and the columnar mod, my new products on the main page are looking pretty awful. I reset the settings back to where they were, uploaded the ZC default files from a new install, yet the main page as two columns of new products, one with 5 in a row and the other with 4. My boss (whom I'm conveniently blaming) is about ready to string me up.
If I hadn't already installed over 20 zencart sites since I first discovered it, I might have an excuse, but in this case all I can do is claim stupidly as I am totally stumped on this one.

Are you referring to the "Column Layout for Product Listing" that allows you to see columns instead of rows?

If so, then CDP is compatible with it if you read the readme and use the support files. If not then please explain a bit more.

Yes I am. I understand they are compatible as I read all the readme files prior to installing.

In fact I had to re-install it last night and what is confusing me is despite the fact I had done the remove sql statement, overwrote all the files for both mods with clean install files, yet as soon as I uploaded the mod, the dotted lines re=appeared and the products lined up as they should be.

This was without re-installing the column divider pro mod. The only files I had not removed were the image files. There's no stylesheet, mod files, etc. yet it's there.

So I'm just leaving it alone. The only thing I wish I could fix is the fact the new products on the main page are aligning to the right. They also did that prior to the uninstall when the stylesheet for the mod was there, so I don't know where to fix it.

Simple:

edit your stylesheet.css file.

find:

/*list box contents*/
.centerBoxContents, .specialsListBoxContents, .categoryListBoxContents, .additionalImages, .centerBoxContentsSpecials, .centerBoxContentsAlsoPurch, .centerBoxContentsFeatured, .centerBoxContentsNew {
	margin: 11px; 0em;
	}

change to

/*list box contents*/
.centerBoxContents, .specialsListBoxContents, .categoryListBoxContents, .additionalImages, .centerBoxContentsSpecials, .centerBoxContentsAlsoPurch, .centerBoxContentsFeatured, .centerBoxContentsNew {
	margin: 5px; 0em;
	}

The margin was too big for the overall table. 5 is within the limits

Thank you so much qhome!! That made it perfect! It also helped to point out my extra semi-colon in the statement!

Now that I know where the setting is for that, it should help in the future. I don't care what the boss thinks...I like the lines and they're staying!

thank you again for your help on this great mod.
