Subcategory layout (still not working)

Hello everyone,
Have had a good experience with changing what I need too, but when it comes to the subcategory layout, my excederin bottle is empty now....

I have tried every tip and trick I can find in page after page of posts...

I have downloaded and installed properly the column layout grid mod.

I have changed the column setting from row to column

Number of columns per row 3

float left in the css style sheet..........(changed it back after it made no difference) not sure I was even in the right place

no change. Vertical column of subcategories still down the middle of page, no rows..

can someone please take a look at my site and tell me what I am missing?? I know this has been answered millions of times, but it's not working for me..........

Did something in my css sheet change??

Thank you

Did you run the sql patch for this module??

I did this as was stated in the instruction sheet:

Run the following SQL commands into your database.
The easiest way is to open Admin->Tools->Install SQL Patch and paste them in the box and click Send.
(These same commands are in the enclosed column_layout_grid.sql file, for convenience.)

INSERT INTO configuration (configuration_title, configuration_key, configuration_value,
configuration_description, configuration_group_id, sort_order,
last_modified, date_added, use_function, set_function)
VALUES ('Product Listing - Layout Style', 'PRODUCT_LISTING_LAYOUT_STYLE', 'rows',
'Select the layout style:<br />Each product can be listed in its own row (rows option)
or products can be listed in multiple columns per row (columns option)', '8', '40', NULL,
now(), NULL, 'zen_cfg_select_option(array('rows', 'columns'),');

INSERT INTO configuration (configuration_title, configuration_key, configuration_value,
configuration_description, configuration_group_id, sort_order,
last_modified, date_added, use_function, set_function)
VALUES ('Product Listing - Columns Per Row', 'PRODUCT_LISTING_COLUMNS_PER_ROW', '3',
'Select the number of columns of products to show in each row in the product listing.
The default setting is 3.', '8', '41', NULL, now(), NULL, NULL);

The issue is not a css issue in your current case

I would insure that you installed the files correctly

I checked the files, this is what I did

Updated code files are included - so the task is simple.

• Upload the new product_listing.php to ZEN_CART_HOME_DIR/includes/modules/YOURTEMPLATE/product_listing.php
• Upload the new tpl_modules_product_listing.php to:
  ZEN_CART_HOME_DIR/includes/templates/YOURTEMPLATE/templates/tpl_modules_product_listing.php

Now when I went to update the second php in templates/yourtemplate/templates

I put it in template_default and NOT classic, because I did not see that file there, only css and image folder and template_info.php

Here is the section of my css sheet by the way, this is the way it was (and still is) before I started this change:

#logo, .centerBoxContents, .specialsListBoxContents,.categoryListBoxContents, .centerBoxContentsAlsoPurch, .attribImg {
text-align: center;
}

Thanks for your help

ALSO...I just discovered that I can not get the CATEGORY main image to center either...no matter what I do it stays to the left (the category title changed fine).

Could this all be related?? I bet I messed something up, but don't have a clue what to do about it......

You should have created the new folder, and put the file into that.
Not advisable to overwrite the default files.

Add this to your stylesheet
#categoryImgListing{text-align: center;}

Didn't change anything......Is there anyway to start over on this without wiping out everything else?

I see I messed up by over writing the default, but I'm new at this, didn't know, now I just want to center my category pic, layout my subcategories in rows, and be done with it.

uuuggghh....

I would reupload the defualt file from the original Zen Cart, and reinstall the mod.

So I should make new your_template (classic) folders in both template and modules and upload new files into them...correct???

do I name them

classic?

Yes, if the name of the template you are using is classic, otherwise the name of template in use.

Thank you so much for your help, I got it fixed........

now that I have it where I want it, I've messed up the sideboxes!

Yeah, I know........

I don't want the text in the sideboxes content centered, I want it aligned left, but I don't want to un-center anything else.

Please, if you could.....this is the last I'm messin with it, lolol, but my brain is jello at this point.

take a look:

text-align: left;
width: 100%;
vertical-align: top;
border: 1px solid #a0704a;
