    Default Categories Dressing

    Hi I am wanting to achieve a simple navigation as in this screenshot.[IMG][/IMG]

    Will I need to download this module to achieve it? I also noticed this module is for version 1.3.8 and I am using 1.3.8a. Thanks

    HI there,

    The only coding involved in the screen shot is the colors for subCategories are lightblue.

    The 'Show SubCategories on Main Page while navigating' is also set to 1 in your Zen Cart admin.

    Categories > Product Listing > Show SubCategories on Main Page while navigating.

    It would probably be easier to just download the MOD and then edit the colors to suit your needs.
    That wasn't the plan!

    It looks to me that it will work in 1.3.8a

    http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?ma...roducts_id=609

    Though I know on the module specs doesn't have the 'a'.

    If you really want to know 100% then post a MSG in the Categories dressing MOD support page:

    http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showth...67676&page=131

    This is where you would also ask any questions you might have in regards to the module functioning correctly or how to modify.

    I can't see there being any problems other than the ones we create ourselves :)
    That wasn't the plan!

    You might ask in the Categories Dressing support thread for information about the mod.

    It looks like you want a strictly alternating background for categories, ignoring the category/subcategory status. That is not actually something Cat Dressing is built to do, and I don't think it is a good idea anyway. It will confuse people about the organization of your categories.

    And yes, Muzz, it is built for v1.3.8a - there is no choice to show that when submitting a mod, only 1.3.8.

    I have been to the categories dressing post but umm cant seem to find the post new thread button??? Been to the first and last pages and a few in between. I would like to place a background behind my categories in the sidebox and was wondering whether this was possible in the stylesheet of zen carts includeds\templates\mytemplate\css? If not I will study up on the categories dressing module. Thanks.

    If you really want that alternating color stripes look, you can find out exactly how tall each category is (or set a line-height), make an image twice as tall as that with your two colors, and use it as the background-image for #categoriesContent.

    #categoriesContent {background: url(../images/alt-stripes.gif) repeat;}


    To post in the support thread, just hit the reply button; you don't start a new thread in a thread.
