Featured Products Multicolumn Format w/Descriptions

Can it be done? Currently the only way I can display featured products with descriptions is as a single column.

Re: Featured Products Multicolumn Format w/Descriptions

Yes. You need to modify products_t.tpl and include description in it. If you need it to work on feature dproducts only you can make a copy of that file and use it for featured products only

Thanks CFL. Could anyone give me some more info on what to modify within the file? I do only need it to work on the featured products.

I like this function also.

Re: Featured Products Multicolumn Format w/Descriptions

1. Copy the "skin/common_files/customer/main/products_t.tpl" template to "skin/%your_skin%/customer/main/products_t.tpl"
(e.g. "skin/2-columns/customer/main/products_t.tpl" in case of 2-columns skin).

2. Add the following code:

Code:

<tr{interline name=products_matrix additional_class="product-description-row"}>



  {*Display product description *}

  {foreach from=$row item=product name=products}

    {if $product}



      <td{interline name=products additional_class="product-cell"} style="width: {$cell_width}%;">

        <span class="product-descr">{$product.descr|amp}</span>

      </td>

                

      {/if}

  {/foreach}



</tr>

e.g. right before the following one:

Code:

{*Display product code*}
