Tabbed Home Page Modules

[rbarbour]

Thanks for your efforts rbarbour. Appreciated. :-) The carousel is not a bad idea too. Hmm. I wouldn't mind being able to specify number of rows to display with prev/next/page# functionality. Hint. lol.

Very doable, look at the bestseller plugin, using the product_listing display would achieve that and be very easy to do.

While coding the changes to tpl_index_categories.php, I was thinking that including 'categories' into the same Tabbed Home Page module as another tab. Might be an even better/nicer option. ....along with above suggestions.

Also doable.

I do like the tabbed feature and Anne did a great job simplifying it, however I am looking for other alternatives do to the hassle it would be to custom code to turn off tabs with (no products). Very frustrating from a customer point of view. MO as well.

Agreed. I see.

Hmm, I would like to take a look and try but worried I will never get this new build live if I keep tweaking and extending things

Thanks for your help.

If you do not have any products in the new, specials, or featured, you can turn off this tab in admin--configuration--index listing

The code posted was for the index_categories.php file, which would only show category specific new, special and featured products.

Turning the tab off will prevent those category specific tabs from appearing even if new, special and featured products exist for that category. Correct?

Ok, I understand ;) You would need to add some php code to the tpl_index_categories.php file to make the tabs show only when products are present.

Thanks Anne, along with the code posted for the sub-category page, I also have the code to include on shopping cart page if you would like me to post that as well.

I see no possible way to check without running additional sql query's to check for products available and is more code than I want to write at this time.

I will keep checking for updates, the "0" products feature for the tabs would be a great feature though.

Thank you so much for this great mod. I am having css problem that I need help with. The mod is installed at http://www.clevershoppers.com I uploaded the index_home.css but it's not applying to the home page. I am assuming that the css for the home page is suppose to over the value in stylesheet.css for .centerBoxWrapper but mine is not doing that and as a result I am getting an extra border lines (which is not pretty to the eyes). If I comment out .centerBoxWrapper from stylesheet.css then everything looks fine but of course it messes up the center boxes that needs it on other pages. I will greatly appreciate how to approach solving this problem.

Also, we have Zen Lightbox installed which loads jquery-1.4.4.min.js inside the jscript folder. This mod also loads another jquery from

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.2/jquery.min.js"  type="text/javascript"></script>

. Does this create a conflict. It should seem like it to me. No sure how to combine the two.

We also have CJLoader installed our site which is currently turned of at the moment.

We are running Zen Cart 1.5.1
Thank you!

I just looked at your site and it looks like you figured out the problem ;)
