Is this possible? Styling category text?

Hi,

Is it possible to style the text you put in for the category?

I am basically trying to re-create this page here

So that the two products within that category can be added to the basket without clicking again. Can this be done?

If so how?

NOTE: the link is not a zen cart shop (this is the shop I am working on)

Thanks

I guess I'm not exactly sure what you're asking.

Re: Is this possible? Styling category text?

Listing pages by default disable HTML in the description. This is so any HTML tags do not get mangled when the description is truncated to a shorter langth. You can reverse this with a simple edit; search the forum for zen_clean_html for the thread with directions. You must take care with HTML tags so they are not left unclosed in the listing if you do this.

If you want to add category text above the products, you do that in the category edit page, and you can use HTML with no fuss.

Re: Is this possible? Styling category text?

Sorry for not being clear.. I hadn't realised you could put straight html into the edit section..thats great :smile:. That bit is sorted now.

Is it possible to have products within a category appear mid way through text you have for a category.

ie.

Category heading

text on category here

Product 1
Product 2

More text on category

Could I do that? If so how?

Thank you :bigups:

Look at the Short Description for categories mod in Free Addons.

A note - you have this
Click here to view some examples of logo designs.
but the "Click here" is not a link, and the link is indistinguishable from the rest of the text unless you hover on it.
