displaying price with section image?

[Air-Tech]

At the moment I have quite a number of sub-sections which contain multiple products, which I want to move to SPP so that they can be listed on Google shopping.

At the moment my sections & sub sections are an image with the section title displayed, when I move a single products into its own sub-section (page) is it possible to show the product price along with the description - obviously I would only want this to occur on the sub-section that contain single products, as opposed to across the board?

I have had a play about with the options available on the sections drop downs in the design / layout tab, but none do what I am looking for.


Any advice appreciated.

Covered extensively on this Forum. Try searching using e.g. this threads title - "displaying price with section image".

I see that you may want to use this with a mixture of multi and single product Sections. Adding a blockIf for ListCount == 1 should help automate this. E.g.

<actinic:block type="ProductList" >
	<actinic:block if="%3cactinic%3avariable%20name%3d%22ListCount%22%20%2f%3e%20%3d%3d%201" >
		<actinic:block type="PriceList" >
			<actinic:variable name="PriceLayout" />
		</actinic:block>
	</actinic:block>
</actinic:block>

Thanks for your reply, but please excuse my ignorance;

When you say automate, I assume you mean that the code will allow & choice to be made in the layout, also I am thinking that this would go in the section layout code somewhere - but don't know where?

Backup first. Then put it towards the bottom and give it a try.

OK, I have copied the code & pasted into various places in the "layout code framework" of some sections & subsection's, but nothing seems to be happening.

I take it I have got the wrong end of the stick here, or that I am missing something?

Hey Martin,
You've added it to the wrong layout.
Remove what you have done, and add it to the CSS section link layout instead.

The easiest way to get to it is in the design tab, bring up a section in the preview and click on any blue text under a section image.
Then in the code view paste the code Norman has given you underneath what you can see. Press apply, and job done

Cheers Paul, I'll give that a spin.

Edit;

OK, now that I know where to put it, it working as I wanted - Thanks all.

Hi.
Is it also possible to include a ‘Stock Level Message’ and ‘Add To Cart’ button on a sub-section.

Thanks

Sadly this is not possible as standard (to show stock level), but it is via an addon (yep you need to spend extra to use the brand new feature fully) from Malcolm Brooks, details in the forum already (stock levels on spp).

This has been the most disappointing part of V10 for me, a really bad oversight. Not only have they made us wait for 4+ years (and still waiting) for the perfect SPP solution, they completely overlooked catering for this, which is a real shame given that we have been forced to use this method to implement SPP.

I can only hope that they are working on a solution and it is soon to be added to v10, if not, then that is doubley disappointing IMO.

Hi.

Thanks for your quick reply.
We have spent a few days experimenting, and came to the same conclusion that it wasn’t possible.

Thanks
