I was looking through the boards and could not find anything that was even remotely similar to my question.

I'd like something like this:

{if $cat eq "342"}
then number of columns 4
{else}
number of columns 3
{/if}

This is for my main categories, by the way.

I tried editing the Appearance.products_per_row, x, %product.index% and any other variable or equation possible in products.tpl and products_t.tpl, but nothing ever does anything. It stubbornly just keeps the 3-column display.


Does anyone have anything that I can do that I haven't done already (=has not been said on these boards already)?


No paid mods, please (I got burnt before).


Thanks.

Insert this code at the very top of products_t.tpl

{if $cat eq 23}{assign var=products_per_row value="2"}{else}{assign var=products_per_row value="3"}{/if}

Then replace $config.Appearance.products_per_row with $products_per_row in the file.

Does a weird design with 3, 1, 2 and 2 products per row. Strange.

You probably missed $config.Appearance.products_per_row occurence.
All of them must be replaced with $products_per_row
