3. How do I move the product image up so it is on the same row as the pricing to the right? Do you mean you don't know or you don't understand?

Sorry, but it meant that I did not have a quick answer (and not much time to look into it). Note that the images and descriptions were added as a quick hack only.

I tried looking for the id/class for the price list thumbnail image in tpl_main_page.php but with no luck. Any suggestion? :)

I installed it as per the instructions but it doesn't work. One thing I did differently is that my site begins with Shop folder ...not ZenCart folder. I get several errors:

Warning: main(includes/templates/template_default/templates/tpl_pricelist_default.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/mccarthy/public_html/shop/includes/templates/template_default/common/tpl_main_page.php on line 119

Warning: main(includes/templates/template_default/templates/tpl_pricelist_default.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/mccarthy/public_html/shop/includes/templates/template_default/common/tpl_main_page.php on line 119

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required 'includes/templates/template_default/templates/tpl_pricelist_default.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/mccarthy/public_html/shop/includes/templates/template_default/common/tpl_main_page.php on line 119

Any body know what I'm not doing correctly?

New install? Version?

New install of the module. Never been on there before. Have installed Canada post module, superorders module, & edit orders module successfully.
I run Zen-cart 1.3.7

My website is https://www.mccarthyhighland.com

/* hide all images in .imgDescrPL /
.imgDescrPL img {
display: none;
}
/ make .imgPL images visible again */
.imgDescrPL img.imgPL {
display: inline;
}

I still still trying to figure out where to put this code because it doesn't achieve what I want. If this can be done, I will then want to truncate description. I believe this can be done. Standard zencart can show list all products this way, i.e. no images in description and truncated description.

The following code might be useful to help us figure out how to make description truncated. It's taken from tpl_modules_products_all_listing.php. What do you think?

if (PRODUCT_ALL_LIST_DESCRIPTION != '0') {
        $disp_text = zen_get_products_description($products_all->fields['products_id']);
        $disp_text = zen_clean_html($disp_text);

        $display_products_description = stripslashes(zen_trunc_string($disp_text, 150, '<a href="' . zen_href_link(zen_get_info_page($products_all->fields['products_id']), 'products_id=' . $products_all->fields['products_id']) . '"> ' . MORE_INFO_TEXT . '</a>'));
      } else {
        $display_products_description = '';
      }

Success! :) :) :)

Managed to achieve what I want.

• Display description without within images.
• Display truncated description with more info link at the end.
• Hyperlink thumbnail product image.

There is one more thing I would like to do...
Is it possible to show subcategories in the dropdown menu?

Sorry.

This is what I would like to figure out. Having the ability to populate the dropdown with the sub-cats would make this mod useful for me. My top-cats are so large I run into the memory problem

readme.txt:

3. Rename the YOUR_TEMPLATE directory inside the zen-cart directory (inside the price-list zip file you downloaded) to the name of your custom over ride template.

I did do that. Unless I have to put it somewhere else in my structure? I also replaced the word "zen-Cart" in the instructions with the word "shop".

Can I email you to continue with this? I'd prefer not posting some of the details of my shop online?

my email: office AT mccarthyhighland.com

Scratch that....works now. Quite nice! Very compact. Great job!
I forgot to copy the renamed folder up to the server.

Dohhh! Thanks for your help.

One issue though. Every second page printed is blank. The list continues uninterupted on the page after that. Why?

The only thing is that the categories that have subcats won't show products anymore then (the pricelist will just show the "no products found" message). So if you show the list to your customers that might confuse them.

@highlander2:

Every second page printed is blank. The list continues uninterupted on the page after that. Why?That happens when your available papersize height (height minus margins etc) is less than the height set in the stylesheet.

Maybe I will release another update soon which will add an admin configuration for the subcategories dropdown and ad admin configuration for the paper height setting.

The only real solution to the memory problems is to get a limited number of products of course. But I am am not sure if/when I will get to that (a total rewrite would probably the best solution, the way this currently works is a mess...).

In my case we don't want to show the pricelist to customers. We want to use it to generate a hard copy catalog to take to shows. My sub-cats should be small enough to avoid the memory problem.

Special xmas edition :smartalec:

I am a bit in a hurry, so it might have last minute bugs. Please try on a test shop first and backup before install (as always...).

######################################

price-list v1.44 2007/12/20

######################################

1. Added "Printable page height setting" setting to admin
   (Removed height setting from stylesheet file, added as in document style now depending on admin setting)
   If every second page printed is blank this usually means you need to lower this value (depends on your paper size and margins etc).

2. Added "Category tree main cats only" feature setting
   Depending on this setting the category dropdown will show main the cats only, or the whole category tree.
   So now you can print all products in a main category + its subcats (like in older versions of the pricelist) OR all products in a subcategory.

3. Added "Specials" switch to admin
   Now it's possible to switch of the Specials display. This will reduce the amount of queries dramaticly (4 queries per product less)

4. Added "Specials expiry" switch to admin

5. Added "Truncate descriptions" feature + admin config

+Lots of other changes

Remove or overwrite the old YOUR_TEMPLATE/pricelist/ files when upgrading!

price-list v1.44 2007/12/20 #woops, that should say: price-list v1.5.0 2007/12/20

Thank you for the update on a great add-on.

Hi Folfs

Installed the mod

Can use the external link ie /shop/index.php?main_page=pricelist and it generates the price list.

However none of the configuration keys appear in Admin>Configuration.

Any clues?

Using
ZenCart 1.3.7
Mod 1.4.1

Thanks

Okay my fault here. My Admin profiler had a small glitch - now fixed
