Set number of products displayed per page (support thread)

[JonnyLarson]

My customer was asking for this as well (the dropdown on the product page that says "show: 6, 10 20, 50..." products). Any status on this?

Hello there, thank so much for this mod first. I'm new and know nothing about PHP coding. Now testing the Zen Cart V1.3.8.

I follow the mod readme to install this mod and I think I ALMOST success...
My problem is, anyway here is the cap screen:


You may see there is 2 digit: 4 and 8 at the end of the line "TEXT_DISPLAY_STEPS_NUMBER_OF_PRODUCTS".
4 and 8 are the steps I set in the Admin page. And these 2 step numbers when I click them, they do their job well! But when I try to add more steps. The others not show...
Seems there is no space for more step numbers to show, just because that error line "TEXT_DISPLAY_STEPS_NUMBER_OF_PRODUCTS" use up all the space...

What's wrong I made? How do I hide this line and show more steps? Thanks!

Quick question, is 'Number of Products Per Page:.....' *ONLY* suppose to appear at the bottom of the page?

I figured that since we enter the code in 2 spots that it would appear at the top and bottom of the pages.

It only shows at the bottom for me, is this right?

This is showing up on my site like this:

Number of Products Per Page:
Number of Products Per Page: 21 42 60 81 102


How can I get rid of the top line so that it only says "Number of Products Per Page:" one time?
