    Default Column Grid / Single Listing Template Alternative

    I re-worked the Single Listing Template mod for Zen 1.5

    Part of this was just because I struggled to make the further adaptations I needed on that existing code. I just wanted it to work the way that I needed and it is no criticism of SLT in the slightest.

    Mine is called SNAF because I tried to arrange the letters 'S' 'N' 'A' and 'F' (specials, featured, all, new) and this arrangement made me laugh.

    What it does:
    -- adds column grid functionality
    -- installs nicely in 1.5.0
    -- let's the user choose to use product_listing format rather than default format for specials, new, featured, and all listing from settings in admin
    -- adds a dropdown filter to product_listing in column view so the listing can be sorted according to criteria such as price. Display of this is set in admin for each listing individually
    -- let's the user choose to include salemaker items in specials or not
    -- adds the ability to use get parameters on the specials page to filter by category so that it is easy to create specials pages for a specific category

    What it doesn't do :
    -- play well with previous versions without modifying the sql statements. basically it auto-installs the sql stuff to suit the structure needed in 1.5. Re-working it for previous versions would be possible but let's move forward.
    -- do anything at all with the center boxes like SLT does. It just works with the main listing pages

    SNAF unashamedly does the things that I need it to do. But if anybody would like to try it on 1.5 and attempt to break it and spot my typos and errors I would love that. Please let me know how you get on.

    SNAF is such a good name for a thread that it is a pity you snafu'd it to
    Column Grid / Single Listing Template Alternative.

    Looking forward to checking it out.

    Is it comaptible with 139h?

    Cheers

    I love SNAF as a name. maybe I will start another thread. just wanted people to actually find it!

    Well, I don't think it doesn't work with 1.3.9 but it is set up for 1.5.

    1.5 does things a little differently in the admin area. Most people are wrestling with this in the other direction at the moment. Converting mods to work with 1.5 can be problematic! This may be the first request ever to go in the other direction.

    making this work with 1.3 is not so hard. If you want me to do that just ask sweetly and I will do it when I find a moment. Just needs a quick alteration to the init_include and a new box file.

    @dw

    try the attached version if you are on 1.3.9. It comes with very little testing but I have put it up on one test site and it seems to work.

    Obviously make sure that you are backed up first.


    @Kim

    Will do but just wanted to see if it got any adverse feedback first.

    Thanks. Cheers! Much appreciated.

    I am stuck with 139h until all of the mods I use have been updated to 150. The reason why I do not use IH3 is because IH3 fouls a little animated gif that I use for a category image. It would be great if the gif worked with your mod.
