Category Description in dialog box.

I am using the following code for my subcategories.tpl

Code:

{* $Id: subcategories.tpl,v 1.43.2.7 2005/10/28 05:23:51 svowl Exp $ *}

{if $active_modules.Bestsellers ne "" and $config.Modules.bestsellers_menu ne "Y"} 





 

{include file="modules/Bestsellers/bestsellers.tpl"} 

{/if} 





 

{ include file="customer/main/navigation.tpl" } 

{if ($navigation_page eq "")||($navigation_page eq "1")}{$current_category.description|regex_replace:"/[\n]/":"

"}



{/if} 





{capture name=dialog} 

{assign var="tmp" value="0"} 



{section name=cat_num loop=$subcategories} 

{if $subcategories[cat_num].category}{assign var="tmp" value="1"}{/if} 

{/section} 



{section name=cat_num loop=$subcategories} 



{ if %cat_num.first% } 

<table border=0 cellspacing=5 width=100%> 

{/if} 



  {if $smarty.section.cat_num.index is div by 2} 

     </tr><tr valign="top"> 

  {/if} 



   <td valign="top" align="center"> 

   <table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">

  <tr><td></td></tr>

  <tr>

    <td align="center" valign="top"></td>

  </tr>

  <tr>

    <td align="center" valign="top"><a class="alt" href="home.php?cat={ $subcategories[cat_num].categoryid }"> 

   [img]../icon.php?categoryid={$subcategories[cat_num].categoryid}[/img] 

   </a></td>

  </tr>

  <tr>

    <td align="center"><a class="alt" href="home.php?cat={ $subcategories[cat_num].categoryid }"> 

   {$subcategories[cat_num].category|escape}</a>

 

   { $categories[cat_num].description|escape }</td>

  </tr>

</table> 

   </td> 



{ if %cat_num.last% } 

</tr></table> 

{/if} 



{/section}



{include file="customer/main/products.tpl" products=$products}

 

{if $tmp and $products ne "" } 

<br clear=_all>{*<hr size=1 noshade>*} 

{/if} 



{if $products eq "" and $tmp eq "0"} 

{$lng.txt_no_products_in_cat} 

{/if}



{/capture} 

{include file="dialog.tpl" title=$current_category.category|regex_replace:"/.*\//":"" content=$smarty.capture.dialog extra="width=100%"} 







 

 



{if $products eq ""} 

{if $f_products ne ""} 





 

{include file="customer/main/featured.tpl"} 

{/if} 

{/if} 

{ include file="customer/main/navigation.tpl" }

I would like to put the category description in side the dialog box. Right now it is on top. I tried moving the code and it just does not appear.

I am using 4.0.18. This is a modified subcategories.tpl.

What code did you put in the side menu?

Here is my categories.tpl code:

Code:

{* $Id: categories.tpl,v 1.23 2004/06/24 09:53:29 max Exp $ *}

<table width="100%"  border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">

    <td colspan="3" bgcolor="#669ACE">[img]{$ImagesDir}/cat_head_blue.gif[/img]</td>

  </tr>

  <tr>

    <td colspan="3" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><td width="1">[img]{$ImagesDir}/spacer.gif[/img]</td></td>

  </tr>

  <tr>

    <td width="50" bgcolor="#669ACE"></td>

                {if $config.General.root_categories eq "Y"}

                {section name=cat_num loop=$categories}

                        <tr>

                                          </tr>

                                        <tr>

                                    <td width="1" height="1">[img]{$ImagesDir}/spacer.gif[/img]</TD>

                                          </tr>

                                </table>

                        </td>

                  </tr>

                {/section}

        {else} {section name=cat_num loop=$subcategories}

                                          </tr>

                                        <tr>

I don't see any code in there for category description...that code is at the top of subcategory.tpl:

{$current_category.description}

I guess i mean sub category.

Here is a link to show my problem

http://66.206.25.17/home.php?cat=85

In the center you will see the sub-category description above the dialog box.

Quote:

Choose either our standard size braided bench pad or a custom size braided bench pad.

I am trying to move this under the dialog box.

Oh sorry, I misunderstood your post...I thought you wanted to put the description in the SIDE menu! :oops: To do what you want, just edit subcategories.tpl and replace this:

Code:






{ include file="customer/main/navigation.tpl" }

{if ($navigation_page eq "")||($navigation_page eq "1")}{$current_category.description|regex_replace:"/[\n]/":"

"}



{/if}





{capture name=dialog}

{assign var="tmp" value="0"}

with this:

Code:

{capture name=dialog}








{ include file="customer/main/navigation.tpl" }

{if ($navigation_page eq "")||($navigation_page eq "1")}{$current_category.description|regex_replace:"/[\n]/":"

"}



{/if}



{assign var="tmp" value="0"}

Thanks...it works great.

I don't know what I was thinking I kept leaving out part of the code because I was thing the navigation was the location links.

Thanks for the help
