Column Layout Grid for Product Listing

Has anyone ever come across this before ? :huh::huh:

Hello, I have successfully added the mod,

However, I would like to find a way to align the buy it now buttons so that they are all on the same horizontal axis.

Undoubtedly the answer is to place the buttons themselves into a divs and then align them with CSS, but I cannot read php well I was wondering if someone would show me and perhaps even place all the attributes into divs so that we may upload the new php file for future use.

Please help.

Is there a way to alter the order of the items in the individual 'cells'? Right now it's:

Product Image
Product Price
Product Description (more info link)
Product Name

I'd like to put the product's name on top. I did read an earlier post mentioning being able to set a sort order for these items in Admin->Configuration->Product Listing however, all I see is the ability to turn their display on or off.

Here is the page:

Thank you!

That page allows you to turn the items off by setting them to 0, or give them a sort order by setting them to some number.

OK, I found what works in another thread. Still, I would like very much to know why this works!

It seems to me that the text in the admin area could change to be a little more helpful. As it is, one is asked, "Do you want to display the Product Price/Add to Cart".

May I suggest, "In what order would you like to display the Product Price/Add to Cart? 0 = off."

How would one know that one may sort from that list?

There are plenty of admin items whose wording could be improved. The developers are reportedly revamping the admin as part of the v2.0 code rewrite, so posting your suggestions in the Code Suggestions forum might be helpful.

I will do so! Good idea!

Hello,
I posted this question about 6 weeks ago in the online group pricing thread, but have yet to receive a reply. I am hoping that since I installed column layout grid first, someone in this thread might be able to help.

I am using 1.3.9h
I have a template Mnstr template (been spanked for that)
I added the following mod's in this order:
*Column Layout Grid
*Buttons from zen button construction (not really a mod)
*Online Group Pricing
*image handler 3

I know you explained this in your very detailed instructions, which I also appreciate. However, this exceeds my cleverness level.
Both column layout grid and online group pricing make changes to includes/modules/your template/produc_listing.php

I haven't found any other files that both mods make changes to, but I could be wrong, it happens frequently. I also followed the instructions and downloaded winmerge, followed Dr. Bytes thread for that, but still can't figure out how to make these two files live as one. Quite frankly, I am petrified.:shocking: They could both be making changes to the same line of code and I wouldn't know what to do with it.

Have you or anyone out there, used these two modules together? If so; please help. I really* want* the layout back the way it was before online group pricing, but I have to have the functionality of online group pricing.

I would suggest comparing both mods' versions of product_listing.php with the stock version to see which one changes fewer lines of code (call this one "a"). Then note exactly which lines are changed in this one, and go to the same relative location in the other one ("b") to see if it is different from stock. If not, you can most likely swap the "a" line into "b" here. If they both change the same line, you may need to ask for help.

Hi,

I have installed column layout grid on my website and it seems to be working good.

but i want the DESCRIPTION to be in a BOX or a MATRIX or a different GRID. in some products , the description looks good, but in some other products, the description looks very bad.

so, i want the description to be under the main image.

i just want the main image on left side, and attributes and add to cart button on the right hand side of the main image and the description to just under the main image, just as on this website: http://www.hugocruzgallery.com/products/%22Roots%22-%E2%97%8F-Infrared-Photography.html

can you help me in doing this please,

for your reference, my website is https://www.muteyaar.com

regards,
muteyaar

I just installed this mod in V1.5 and works great, i wonder if it is possible to get a 4 column display in the What's new etc pages as well ?
Thanks

You would need the Single Listing Template mod (in Free Addons) for that.

Glad to hear that. We're just starting to updated, test and redesign our sites. Can you let me know where I can see your site? And are you using a custom template?

Hi gjh42
Thanks for that information, works well :)

Just to note that I have posted an alternative to Single Listing Template today. It is modified to suit 1.5.0 and has a slightly different feature set. If anyone would like to give it a trial run ( and try and break it/find my errors ) I would be very grateful.

hello guys.
not found answer on my question:
1.3.9h
installed Column Layout / Grid Layout for Products Listing (Add On Module for Zen Cart v1.3.8)
but also installed Ashley Pink template- almost at same time.
then I trying to follow instruction:
admin- tools-install SQL patches
i have an errors:
Failed: 2
Error ERROR: Cannot insert configuration_key "" because it already exists
Error ERROR: Cannot insert configuration_key "" because it already exists
Warning Note: 2 statements ignored. See "upgrade_exceptions" table for additional details.

what should I do???
please help....

I find the solution if you need.
-You must enter in your phpadmin

• choose windows query sql
• copy and paste the instruction inside the txt file
  please note that you must make a change at the SQL query, you must insert the name of your database ....and the prefix as :

INSERT INTO **namedatabase.zen_**configuration (configuration_title, configuration_key, configuration_value, etc......

go ahead and now its working

No you dont!
read the Ashley Pink install files again and you will see that Grid Layout is ALREADY INSTALLED in this template. I suggest you remove any changes you made while attempting to "install" it.

niccol, just installed the tabbed product info snaf into V1.5 and all seems to work great :)

Just a follow up on niccol's tabbed product info mod
I am installing on local and been modifying for a while and just about ready to go live, after installing the mod i do however notice that when using the explorer developer tool it always showed me the css stylesheet that was involved with the page, element, image etc ..... this has gone on all pages of the site :oops:. It still shows the attributes but no reference to the stylesheet involved. Works fine on any page i go to on the internet. When i switch back to before the install it is back.

The sql files installed properly but there is no entry such as " Admin->Configuration->TPP Config " to edit the tabs.

@windsurfer
It is a replacement for column grid and/or single listing template rather than tabbed products.

I am not sure exactly what you are saying about the stylesheet. The module does not contain a stylesheet.
