Product/Brochure Layout Help Please

[yetiserve]

On our site - www.kulfikids.co.uk
all the products are laid out using the best seller template.

In each case under any section the actual items for sale are in a vertical line with the picture to the right or left, the description next to it and the buy now button

Is there a way to lay them out in multiple colums of up to 3 or 4 instead of just the one line down so that the description and buy now button are below the picture - that way I could have several products next to each other.

I've tried searching through the forums and the advanced manuals but everything I try fails !

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Many thanks
Andy

If you want product in columns, see www.drillpine.biz/actinicstuff where I've posted a "donationware" patch that does just that.

re:brochure layout

Thanks for that - just looked at it but I have just one more question

Where it says "Make sure you do the above to ALL brochure fragment templates. There are usually 8!"

Where exactly do I find these brochure fragments please?

Most sites only use one or two templates but it's best to do them all just in case you use another one later. There will be a list of the Brochure ones in BrochureTemplates.ini - e.g.

[Templates]
Act_TextOnly.html=Text only
Act_TextAndTitle.html=Text and title
Act_ImageOnly.html=Image only
Act_ImageAndTitle.html=Image and title
Act_LeftImage.html=Image to left of text
Act_LeftImageAndTitle.html=Image to left of text and title
Act_RightImage.html=Image to right of text
Act_RightImageAndTitle.html=Image to right of text and title

and the Product ones are in ProductTemplates.ini - e.g.

[Templates]
Act_ProductLine.html=One product per row, image on left
Act_ProductLineNew.html=Layout designed for new products
Act_ProductLineRight.html=One product per row, image on right
Act_ProductLineLarge.html=Large image on the left
Act_ProductLineTable.html=No image, laid out in rows
Act_ProductLineTextOnly.html=Description only, useful for inserting messages
Act_ProductLineTextAndTitle.html=Product name and description only

These may vary somewhat depending on the Theme you're using so it's best to look in your own .ini files.
