how to get 4 products a row on products.tpl?
 
hi there,
i wanna display 4 products a row on products.tpl. (VERSION: 4.1.9)

i used this code, but it doesn't work for me. anyone who can tell me whats wrong with it?

Code:
<DIV class=product_records_container style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 2px; BORDER-BOTTOM: #cccccc 1px dotted">
<TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=585 border=0>
  <TBODY>
  {section name=product loop=$products}
{assign var="discount" value=0}
{if %product.index% is div by 4}
<tr>
{/if}
  <TR>
    <TD>
      <TABLE id=ctl00_cpContentArea_dlProductRecords style="BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse" cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 border=0>
        <TBODY>
<tr>
 
          <TD vAlign=top>
            <DIV class=prod_box>
            <A href="product.php?productid={$products[product].productid}&amp;cat={$cat}&amp;page={$navigation_page}">
            {include file="product_thumbnail.tpl" productid=$products[product].productid image_x=130 image_y=130 product=$products[product].product tmbn_url=$products[product].tmbn_url}</a>
            {if $active_modules.Special_Offers ne "" and $products[product].have_offers}
{include file="modules/Special_Offers/customer/product_offer_thumb.tpl" product=$products[product]}
{/if}
            <IMG alt="" src="feature_exclusive.gif">
            <P><SPAN class=prodname>{$products[product].product}</SPAN></P></A>
            <P class=shortdescription>{$products[product].descr}</P>
            <P class=instock>--extrafield-shipping--</P><IMG src="star50.gif">
            <P class=prodprice>Our Price: {include file="currency.tpl" value=$products[product].price} ({include file="customer/main/alter_currency_value.tpl" alter_currency_value=$products[product].taxed_price})</P></DIV></TD>

Re: how to get 4 products a row on products.tpl?
 
I know this isn't directly answering your question but what about...

In admin > General Setting > Appearance Options...
admin/configuration.php?option=Appearance

Change "Display products list in multiple columns (1-3) (leave empty to use standard format):", to 4

Then in products.tpl locate...
Code:
{if $usertype eq "C" and $config.Appearance.products_per_row ne "" and $config.Appearance.products_per_row gt 0 and $config.Appearance.products_per_row lt 4 and ($featured eq "Y" or $config.Appearance.featured_only_multicolumn eq "N")}

and change the part $config.Appearance.products_per_row lt 4 to...

$config.Appearance.products_per_row lt 5

Hope this helps.

would work normally, but i need it hardcoded
and besides if i use it, i need to change the template and regardless if i try my code above or i try to add the products_t.tpl code to my code, the products aren't in a row anymore

Re: how to get 4 products a row on products.tpl?
 
ok understandable, then how about trying...

Code:
<DIV class=product_records_container style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 2px; BORDER-BOTTOM: #cccccc 1px dotted">
<TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=585 border=0>
<TBODY>
<tr>
{section name=product loop=$products}
{assign var="discount" value=0}
<TD>
<TABLE id=ctl00_cpContentArea_dlProductRecords style="BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse" cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 border=0>
<TBODY>
<TR>
<TD vAlign=top>
<DIV class=prod_box>
<A href="product.php?productid={$products[product].productid}&amp;cat={$cat}&amp;page={$navigation_page}">
{include file="product_thumbnail.tpl" productid=$products[product].productid image_x=130 image_y=130 product=$products[product].product tmbn_url=$products[product].tmbn_url}</a>
{if $active_modules.Special_Offers ne "" and $products[product].have_offers}
{include file="modules/Special_Offers/customer/product_offer_thumb.tpl" product=$products[product]}
{/if}
<IMG alt="" src="feature_exclusive.gif">
<P><SPAN class=prodname>{$products[product].product}</SPAN></P></A>
<P class=shortdescription>{$products[product].descr}</P>
<P class=instock>--extrafield-shipping--</P><IMG src="star50.gif">
<P class=prodprice>Our Price: {include file="currency.tpl" value=$products[product].price} ({include file="customer/main/alter_currency_value.tpl" alter_currency_value=$products[product].taxed_price})</P></DIV></TD>
</TR>
</TBODY>
</TABLE>
</TD>
       
{if ($smarty.section.product.iteration is div by 4) and not ($smarty.section.product.last)}</TR><TR>{/if}
                       
{/section}
</tr>
</TBODY>
</TABLE>
</DIV>

Hope this helps.

Hi again MOC I just cleaned up the code for you. As my app was coming out with all sorts of validation errors. Becareful with using a css id more than once on the same page (for example, id="ctl00_cpContentArea_dlProductRecords")

Code:
<div class="product_records_container" style="margin-bottom: 2px; border-bottom: #cccccc 1px dotted;">
<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="585" border="0">
<tbody>
<tr>
{section name=product loop=$products}
{assign var="discount" value=0}
<td>
<table id="ctl00_cpContentArea_dlProductRecords" style="border-collapse: collapse;" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td valign="top">
<div class="prod_box">
<a href="product.php?productid={$products[product].productid}&amp;cat={$cat}&amp;page={$navigation_page}">
{include file="product_thumbnail.tpl" productid=$products[product].productid image_x=130 image_y=130 product=$products[product].product tmbn_url=$products[product].tmbn_url}</a>
{if $active_modules.special_offers ne "" and $products[product].have_offers}
{include file="modules/special_offers/customer/product_offer_thumb.tpl" product=$products[product]}
{/if}
<img alt="" src="feature_exclusive.gif" />
<p><span class="prodname">{$products[product].product}</span></p>
<p class="shortdescription">{$products[product].descr}</p>
<p class="instock">--extrafield-shipping--<img src="star50.gif" alt="" /></p>
<p class="prodprice">Our Price: {include file="currency.tpl" value=$products[product].price} ({include file="customer/main/alter_currency_value.tpl" alter_currency_value=$products[product].taxed_price})</p></div></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</td>
       
{if ($smarty.section.product.iteration is div by 4) and not ($smarty.section.product.last)}</tr><tr>{/if}
                       
{/section}
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</div>

Just in case it helps, no ideas. I'm bored - I know ;D

Re: how to get 4 products a row on products.tpl?
 
Hi, I made the changes per post #2 and it worked perfectly for me and I am happy. Some don't line up, but that is a factor of the title and can be fixed-- had the same problem when I had 3 across. My question is, must I have things hardcoded, or am I ok this way? Thanks for your help!

Re: how to get 4 products a row on products.tpl?
 
Although I'm not 100% sure, I would say that to get more than 4 or more products per row would involve some level of hard coding considering the tpl looks for less-than-4.

The only other area I think it affects would be the featured products and I can't see it affecting invoices. However, there might be a few mods out there which require it.

Re: how to get 4 products a row on products.tpl?
 
I'm sorry to be such a pain, but I don't know where to put the coding in #6. I've looked in products.tpl and I don't see anything-- (also, I don't know if I'm replacing or adding)

I really like 4 across, so could you pls. give me more direction! Thanks.

Re: how to get 4 products a row on products.tpl?
 
#6 contains code that is specific to MOC's website such as images and id/classes which you will not have and makes it confusing to control. Plus, there's more hard coding which is not necessary.

In the products.tpl or products_t.tpl, (dependent on what you have chosen as products per row) you would swap the whole section {section name=product loop=$products}bla bla{/section} with the code from #6
