In CS-Cart I would create the following categories, and assign products to these categories as usual.
[COLOR=“Blue”]Canon > Ink Jet Printers
Canon > Laser Printers
Canon > Multifunction Printers[/COLOR]
I would like to edit how the product list page displayed products. The user would click in a top level category called Canon. Rather than showing the 3 categories like:
[COLOR=“Blue”]Home > Canon
[/COLOR]
Ink Jet Printers
Laser Printers
Multifunction Printers
I would like to to display as follows:
[COLOR=“Blue”]Home > Canon
[/COLOR]
Ink Jet Printers
Products in Ink Jet Printers category here
Laser Printers
Products in Laser Printers category here
Multifunction Printers
Products in Multifunction Printers category here
If I read this right, all you should have to do is continue to create subcategories in Home—> Manage Categories
“Add subcat”
So, one complete line would be
Home > Canon > Ink Jet Printers > Products
Home > Canon > Laser Printers > Products
(etc…)
Nope, sorry it’s hard to explain. Basically I want to create top level and sub categories as usual, but I want then to all display including products when I user selects the top level category
Normally CS-Cart would just show the subcategories of Canon, but I would like it to show the subcategories followed by the products under that subcategory right on the one page. Items in bold below are the subcategories, item in [COLOR=“Blue”]blue[/COLOR] are products. This way a user is presented with all the Printer Products Canon sells here on this one page, sort of displayed in a one page categorized report format.
[COLOR=“Green”]Breadcumbs: Home > Canon[/COLOR] <—The User is there, here are not products as this level
Ink Jet Printers
[COLOR=“Blue”]All Ink Jet Printers Products here[/COLOR]
Laser Printers
[COLOR=“Blue”]All Products in Laser Printers category here[/COLOR]
Multifunction Printers
[COLOR=“Blue”]All Products in Multifunction Printers category here[/COLOR]
I gotcha…
probably can, but with some extensive changes to the template that presents the sub-cat, and i am not sure where else those changes may affect the other parts of the cart…
(some “if” statements, some “foreach” statements, and the cat and subcat descriptions with product titles)
but i am pretty sure it could be done…
