Designer Monthly Boxes

[qhome]

Hello there Qhome,

Great mod, really like. I wondered how to sort a little niggle I am having. The featured products show up for every category, regardless. Whereas they were displaying for the relevant category that was active.

I don't know if I knocked a setting, or maybe if I have missed somthing, so sorry in advance if this is the case.

Thanks,

This sounds like a settings in the configuration area (can't remember which section) Try using the original Feature_products module and tpl file and see if the problem is still there. If so, then search the configuration area for "Show Featured Products on Main Page" or "All pages" or something.

Just a note: URLs in the stylesheet or the templates should ALWAYS be relative and not absolute, then you won't ever run into this problem.

I assume you are referring to the problem where I hardcoded the full path to the divider image. yes yes i know... bad q bad q

Thanks for response to versions. And nice contribution. Thanks.

Regards to image sizes. On the index page of my Zen Cart 1.37 shop I'm displaying only the Featured Products in the center column. However after installing he mod I discovered changing the product image size for Featured Products no longer has any effect (Images > Image - Featured Products Height).

However changing the New Products image size now changes the Featured Product image sizes. (Image - New Products Height).

Any ideas? Not a biggy for me right now as I'm currently not displaying the New Products center box.

Hi

Been trying to "mod this mod" all day without success, I wondered if anyone here had managed to achieve something similar to what can be seen on one of our competitors sites: www dot trade-appliances.co.uk [Didn't make it a link, they don't need the business]!

Any suggestions welcome - even if its "don't waste your time"!

Many thanks.

Is your question specifically related to the Designer Monthly Boxes mod or is it just a general question?

Have you checked the showcase for ecommerce sites running Zen Cart?

What specifically are you trying to achive? What functions/features/presentation you see on that website home page do you desire on your website?

As far as I can tell Zen Cart (with some add-ons) can do pretty much everything I see on that site. Without requiring 5000 plus pounds expenditure for the ecommerce application used by that site.
