spooks Posted June 29, 2008 Author Share Posted June 29, 2008 This contribution has much changed and as thumbnails is now only one part I felt it should be a new contribution. New contribution: Product Listing Enhancements, Thumbnails & Manufacturer Headings is at http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/6051 Forum thread started at : http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=307010 The setup file will update existing installs. Have fun. ;) Sam Remember, What you think I ment may not be what I thought I ment when I said it.

Guest Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 Thanks for your reply, Sam. I tried https://www.mywebsite.com/catalog/admin/pro...bnail_setup.php, but it ends up a blank page. I'm sure the product_thumbnail_setup.php file is under /catalog/admin/ directory, and I've logged into Oscommerce Admin page before running the setup. Did I miss any steps? Thanks again! Angela Lindsayang had this, it sounds like your trying www.mysite.com/catalog/admin/product_thumbnail_setup.https It should be https://www.mysite.com/catalog/admin/produc...bnail_setup.php and of course replace mysite.com and catalog appropriatly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spooks Posted July 6, 2008 Author Share Posted July 6, 2008 Perhaps your getting an error but have error displays disabled. You could try the new version at: Product Listing Enhancements, Thumbnails & Manufacturer Headings http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/6051 The setup is now more vociferous.

meulenb Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 Hi, definitely a great contribution, I had it up and running and a littlebit tuned in seconds! One question though: is there any option or additional setting to give the height of a product box a fixed height? Even with the box height defined, each and every box in the product list now has it's own height, mainly determined by the pictures and their difference in size. Picture sizes might always be slightly different so what I'm looking for is to give each and every product box the exact same size which has of course a much better look 'n feel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spooks Posted July 7, 2008 Author Share Posted July 7, 2008 The box is created using a table where you set width & height in admin, however these are minimum values, if your content is larger than available size the table will be streched, your best option is to set values that wont be exceeded by your content. It may be possible to find ways to have fixed sizes in certain browsers with specific doc definitions, I know of no way that will work globally though. ;) Sam Remember, What you think I ment may not be what I thought I ment when I said it.

I have tried the max value, image...product listing etc,,, in admin...but still does not work :( any help? Thanks. Only the width of the image is defined to prevent distorting the image by modifying the width/height proportions, if you dont care about distortion you can set the height as well: find: $image, $products['products_name'], PRODUCT_IMAGE_WIDTH, '') change to $image, $products['products_name'], PRODUCT_IMAGE_WIDTH, 'height_value_here') Sam Remember, What you think I ment may not be what I thought I ment when I said it.

spooks Posted August 6, 2008 Author Share Posted August 6, 2008 This contrib has much changed so has become Product Listing Enhancements, Thumbnails & Manufacturer Headings with many new features: Group Product Listing By Manufacturer with a manufacturer short description. The old admin controls apply along with some new ones. The thumbnails part displays products with thumbnail images in a grid layout, you define how many boxes per line plus image & box sizes. It shows the product image in a box with product name, price, short description (if you have that) & buy now or details button. This also supports Additional Images (http://addons.oscommerce.com/info/1032) If you have this it will select the medium size image if it exists. Thumbnail also now has a pure 'grid' mode. You can select block mode display in list/manufacturer listings similar to the 'new products' display. You can also apply the thumbnail display to the new_products module & products_new page. NOTE: These files have an exrta date function, original will just list product to set limit, this adds a max age for product (default is 60days) to change edit the commented line. As some of the listing styles remove the heading (you can select to remove in other modes too) where a user would select sort mode (if they realised, its not obvious) I`ve add a drop down to select sort order, that appears at the base of the product display, it will list according to what you have set in admin. Also added a drop down for user to select number of products shown per page. The customer can switch between thumbnails & manufacturer if you set default to either provided you give the option. If you change default you must select a new category to reset your display. If your store does'nt have manufacturers or your listing via search, the manufacturer mode will revert to list mode automatically. There is now a pull down for sort order and a pull down for max results per page.

Davefromcornwall Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 (edited) Hi, I installed this promising looking contribution, but it put thumbnails over 600px wide on my category listing page, so I have uninstalled it, by undoing all the additions to the relevant files. Unfortunately, there is now a "Details" button on my subcategory listing pages, which does nothing, which I don't know how to get rid of. How do I remove the database entries? My site is here, in case you want to see the situation for yourself. Edited September 15, 2008 by Davefromcornwall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
