with descriptions and icons. Example here:
http://www.bitsnspu.finestshops.com/store/customer/home.php?cat=2

Enjoy

Just move this code from the end

{if $products eq ""} 
{if $f_products ne ""} 


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

before this one

{capture name=dialog} 
{assign var="tmp" value="0"} 

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

How do you get the subcatergory text to be underneath the icon, rather than to the right hand side?

this is for v3.4.5

Very Nice! Good job! Definitely one to put in the archive for later use.

Thanks for that PhilJ, works a treat.

I copied over the mod to subcatagories.tpl and the layout works great except now I get a warning-

Warning: Unknown modifier '/' in /x-cart/Smarty-2.5.0/plugins/modifier.regex_replace.php on line 13

Any ideas on how to get rid of it? If I restore the file to default the message goes away. I tried to check the file but don't know enough about php to figure it out. I'm using x-cart 3.4.8, php 4.2.3.

Any help would be great.
thanks.[/b]

Note that magic_quotes_gpc is disabled on my server. Do I need to add a couple of escapes someplace?

This is exactly the kind of mod I was looking for. Looks great on the demo site.

Thanks.
