Printable Price list :: support thread

[all4coffee]

Paul, thank you. I removed v. 1.2 and installed the latest version - works, print great (IE 7) - no problems.

@all4coffee: thanks for letting me now the latest version works :-)

Normal size paper 8 1/2 x 11 portrait.

I don't think 8 1/2 x 11 is normal size.

The default settings of the pricelist and the included stylesheets for printing are designed for
A4 paper size(which is not the same as US letter! or whatever it's called). Info about standarized paper formats (in dutch, but I think the idea is clear, even if you can't read dutch): http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/A4_%28papierformaat%29

Is there a way to turn the pictures back on???

I already answered this in my previous post. Was it unclear???

Ay carumba! So you did. Totally missed that. Sorry.

1) Where is the css stored for the paper size so I can try and change the paper size?

2) Where is the setting to turn on images?

My Printable Price-List has these settings:
Defalult Profile
Show Profile

My Price-List Profiles have these settings:
Title Enable Profile Name Stylesheet Main Cats New Page Main Cats New Table No Wrap Max Columns Max Rows Tax Free Model Manufacturer Weight Stock On Hand Notes (A) Notes (B) Show Inactive Sort By Asc Desc All Categories default Boxes Debug

Did something get dropped during the upgrade?

Thanks

OK re-updated the new mod and the image switch is now in the profile. Sweet.

Now I just need to know where and how to change the settings from A4 to 8 1/2 x 11. If anyone knows, please let me know.

Thanks.

hey. I have my pricelist looking just the way i want it. The only thing is can I somehow get it to print all on one page and not sepearate each category.

I can change the config and set "Main Cats New Page" to false, but this alters the style of the page in a way.

thx

I have been using this mod for some time now - we need to upload the profile to the next updated version

Not sure if it still matters, but the main change would be to edit the stylsheet and change:
Code:
.pagePL, #pageOnePL, .pageOnePL{height: 25.5cm;/* overflow: hidden; */}
To this for example
Code:
.pagePL, #pageOnePL, .pageOnePL{height: 8inch;/* overflow: hidden; */}
Or in cm if inch does not work, I think inch will work just fine, but I never use inches myself... Of course the exact setting depends on your margins etcetera.

Besides that you may want to tweak the width settings a little (in the same stylesheet) and/or what columns to print (admin).

Thanks seanscully. Yep it still matters. :-) Where is that located/which file is that code in?

Thanks

@PaulM : I was away from the thread, and I was surprised to see you put the add to cart button mod. Thank you :-)

For the ones having the images gone, check your CSS, the img tag is perhaps visiblity:hidden.

I forgot

Another thing is that I was thinking of perfecting the "POS for poors" mod or perhaps I'll call it "Really Simple POS" :
now we can use the category menu not to have the complete product list shown, that's nice but each time you change category it reloads the whole page, so I was thinking of three things.

The first one must be very easy, it's to make the image sensible so that we can click on it to add to cart.

The second is no more complicated, it's to change the popup category menu to a clickable table of images.

But the third is a bit more difficult because I'm not a coder, but I'm quite sure it's not a big deal for someone who knows how to write some AJAX code. You already understood what I was about : it's to make the Really Simple POS an AJAX thing so that going from one category to another would be very fast and easy.

If someone can take a look at that it would be great.

Use Crimson editor to open folder YOUR TEMPLATE and load file profile-a4-portrait.css
I did a little testing - after running a 93 page catalog I found 8inch was not correct, on line 137 I changed it to read

height: 27.9cm;

I did a small test to Adobe and then printed a few pages and it appears to look formated.

Now does anyone know what to modify to remove the pricing and shorten descriptions to say 128 characters? I want to make a catalog with pictures, breif descriptions and no prices.
