column layout grid not working?

[khopek]

i just installed the column layout grid and although Product Listing - Layout Style and
Product Listing - Columns Per Row...are bothing showing up in admin-configuration-product listing... nothing is changing. My products are still lines up the default way.

I installed exactly how the instructions said...I am wondering if this is because my version of Zencart is 1.3.0.1 and not 1.3.0.2?

how exactly did you install it?

how exactly did you install it?

exactly how the instructions said......


STEP 1. Modification of Code

Updated code files are included - so the task is simple.
- Upload the new product_listing.php to ZEN_CART_HOME_DIR/includes/modules/YOURTEMPLATE/product_listing.php

- Upload the new tpl_modules_product_listing.php to:
ZEN_CART_HOME_DIR/includes/templates/YOURTEMPLATE/templates/tpl_modules_product_listing.php

STEP 2. Changing the Database

Run the following SQL commands into your database.
The easiest way is to open Admin->Tools->Install SQL Patch and paste them in the box and click Send.

INSERT INTO configuration (configuration_title, configuration_key, configuration_value,
configuration_description, configuration_group_id, sort_order,
last_modified, date_added, use_function, set_function)
VALUES ('Product Listing - Layout Style', 'PRODUCT_LISTING_LAYOUT_STYLE', 'rows',
'Select the layout style:<br />Each product can be listed in its own row (rows option)
or products can be listed in multiple columns per row (columns option)', '8', '40', NULL,
now(), NULL, 'zen_cfg_select_option(array(\'rows\', \'columns\'),');

INSERT INTO configuration (configuration_title, configuration_key, configuration_value,
configuration_description, configuration_group_id, sort_order,
last_modified, date_added, use_function, set_function)
VALUES ('Product Listing - Columns Per Row', 'PRODUCT_LISTING_COLUMNS_PER_ROW', '3',
'Select the number of columns of products to show in each row in the product listing.
The default setting is 3.', '8', '41', NULL, now(), NULL, NULL);

Did you substitute "YOURTEMPLATE" with your own custom template name ... ie, in your case: "nightFall"?

[khopek]

i sure did

[khopek]

so any ideas as to what i going on?

[khopek]

well i think i figured it out.
I got annoyed & uninstalled Zencart.
Then I reinstalled it again but with the new version.
I installed the column layout grid FIRST before I installed anything else.
it seems to be working now.....BUT
the Improved Attrubutes controller does not now.
Before I uninstalled it was working while the column layout grid was not working.

So there must be some conflict between having them both installed?
If someone knows how to get BOTH of these working I would appreciate it as I need both.

Those two contributions are entirely unrelated to each other.

I don't know all the technical details of your setup, so I can only guess that somehow the files are getting corrupted when loading or else ending up in the wrong place. Not pointing fingers ... just guessing.

The order of installation of the grid module shouldn't matter. At whatever point it is installed, it should show grid-layout data if enabled. If the file is overwritten by another mod or the override folder into which it is placed doesn't match properly (misspelled, uPPerCase instead of lowercase, etc), then of course it won't be found and alternate behaviour will occur instead.

the module doesn't work for me either.
I have exactly installed how the instuctions said

The products are still showed in rows , only they are centered know.

I'm using the future-zen template

Sorry, it's solved,

the includes/modules/mytemplate was misspelled.
