Mod for subcategories in columns with descriptions and icons

Is there any way to get this to work in 4.0.x?

Please look at page 3 of this same thread, about half-way down.

Sorry, I meant the fix that's just above which includes the title tag for each link containing the subcategory description

Good mod is coming out for 4.1.2! Thanks a lot for sharing!

Thank you for this code. I think this will help a lot of people as they start upgrading to the new version of X-Cart.

Well done Mrkenzie! I have no idea why this is not an option in Xcart to begin with!
The only thing that the user will have to be careful of (or at least that I've noticed) is to make sure to resize your images used for the subcats to be all of the same size to keep uniformity, but such a small price to pay for having this!
Also, you might add the directories to find the file to change- I was able to find them using dreamweaver to locate the text to be changed- Something that might help the not-so fluent savy xcart users. *raises hand**
Once again, thank you for taking the time to come up with this mod, and most of all sharing it with the rest of us!

Has anyone got this to work with version 4.

here is my code but I cant get the columns.

Code:

{if $subcategories}
<table cellspacing="5" width="100">

{foreach from=$subcategories item=subcat}
<tr>
<td class="SubcatTitle" align="center">
<a href="home.php?cat={ $subcat.categoryid }"><center>
[img]{$xcart_web_dir}/image.php?id={$subcat.categoryid }&amp;type=C[/img]



{ $subcat.category|escape }
</center>
</a>
</td>
</tr>
{/foreach}

</table>

{/if}

[/code]

I see your using 4.0.12, the mode on forum page 10 is for ver 4.1+
Try backing up to page 7 or 8
But if you do have ver 4.1+ I'm working on that my self.
