Remove product List heading and description

[LauraF]

Stevenw,

Thanks for posting this method of hiding the column headings. It was easy and worked like a charm.

For those who are not familiar with Zen Cart custom templates, I would only add that the modified file should be saved to includes/templates/YOUR_CUSTOM_TEMPLATE/common/tpl_tabular_display.php so as not to overwrite the file in /template_default/

Here is a the proper way to get rid of the productlisting-rowheading - all you have to do is change one number, so don't panic:

1: Open includes/templates/template_default/common/tpl_tabular_display.php

2: find this line:

for($row=0; $row<sizeof($list_box_contents); $row++) {
$r_params = " ";
$c_params = "";
if (isset($list_box_contents[$row]['params'])) $r_params .= ' ' . $list_box_contents[$row]['params'];

3: Change the $row=0 to $row=1

This ensures that the headings (which begin at row 0) cannot display. Nothing else is affected.

Simples.

thanks for the info! couldn't find which php file to edit and this did the job!

I am using the Column Layout Grid add-on and when viewing the product listing as a grid instead of rows, the header row changes to display the first row of products. But it's not uniform with the rest of the page (because it has the properties of the header row). I want to remove the header row, but how do I get the products that would have shown up in that row to display? Taking the header row out removes the first row of products in my case.

Otherwise, this fix would work perfectly for me.

I don't want to eliminate the space that holds the description or the product name. I just want to change the properties of the header row to match those of the rest of the tabular data.

I'm looking for a similar solution, via PHP and not the display:none route, for getting rid of the Category links on ONLY ONE of my sub category landing pages. Maybe Stevesh could help again? Thanks!

I fixed my problem. I made changes in stylesheet_main.css. I don't know if it will help you, thebigkick. I didn't get rid of the category links. I just made them look like the other rows.

AvaAdorn - Your CSS restyling is indeed the best and correct way to do what you want, make the grid display uniform. Only people with Template Monster templates will have a stylesheet_main.css; others will probably want to edit stylesheet.css. (You could recode the file that creates the output, but that would be a complex set of changes which would have to account for multiple output situations.)

thebigkick - Your desired method will require real PHP coding (not just one tweak) to distinguish which category is being output and deliver alternate processing for only that one. If you are not familiar with PHP, you would be best off using styling for your custom category.
