At least 2 ways to do this:
1. Buy WebsiteCM's
"multiple product page templates" mod (I did)
2. CLONE your product.tpl -- for example, if you have 2 "unique" products -- call them 01_product.tpl and 02_product.tpl
then, in /skin1/customer/home_main.tpl
FIND:
Code:
{elseif $main eq "product"}
{include file="customer/main/product.tpl" product=$product}
REPLACE WITH:
Code:
{elseif $main eq "product"}
{if $product.categoryid == 1}
{include file="customer/main/01_product.tpl" product=$product}
{elseif $product.categoryid == 2}
{include file="customer/main/02_product.tpl" product=$product}
{else}
{include file="customer/main/product.tpl" product=$product}
{/if}
You may want to adjust the {if $product.categoryid == 1} to something else, if you have more than one product in a category.
If you have more than a few unique product layouts, Jon's mod can be an invaluable time saver. I am happy I am using the mod.
He also has a mod for unique categories. Works great.
