Is there any way to add a dynamic class or ID to the body tag? Or any other tag for that matter?

I find this cart incredibly limiting in the fact that you can't use different page templates and the cart doesn't assign dynamic classes or ID to anything aside from products.

I guess I'll answer my own question.

This isn't exactly what I wanted but it's enough to do the trick for now. This will add a class to the html element based on the first word of the page name. So if your page is called "about-our-company.html" It will add "about" as a class to the html element.

Add this to your head.

{literal}
<script type="text/javascript">
    var loc = window.location.pathname.match(/^\/?(\w+)\b/);
    // document.documentElement is the html element, this adds the class
    if(loc) document.documentElement.className += " " + loc[1].toLowerCase();
</script>
{/literal}

Hi @Pablo
You can edit skins/[SKIN_NAME]/customer/index.tpl

replace: 
<body>

1. with: 
<body id="{$controller}" class="{$mode}">
ex: <body id="categories" class="view">

2. or even more advanced:
<body id="{$controller}" class="{$mode}{if $controller=='categories'} category{$smarty.request.category_id}{/if}{if $controller=='pages'} page{$smarty.request.page_id}{/if}">
ex: <body id="categories" class="view category12">
ex: <body id="pages" class="view page3">

PS: in case of update you need to edit again

I hope that helps,

Thanks. That doesn't actually add the name of the specific page or even the ID.

This is what I get on a page now.

<body id="pages" class="view page">


But it does work on categories pages now :) So if I use both I can now target pretty much any page I want now with CSS.

Thanks for your help.

Works perfect on cs-cart 4.0.x and 4.1.x

After adding code you can add css styles to any page from the website ;)

#homepage
body#index.index{}
#all categories
body#categories{}
#specific category (ex:for category_id=1)
body#categories.category1{}
#all pages
body#pages{}
#specific page(ex:for page_id=1)
body#pages.page1{}

I hope that helps,

Vali, thanks a lot! I wonder why this little but very useful improvement is not yet suggested as default markup.

Anybody from CS-Cart team would like to lobby it to include into next version?

It will be better if you post this to the bug tracker as a feature request. I am afraid they do not monitor all themes on this forum

Right now is a better solution and upgrade ready, using of hook index:content for you please follow:

#add file
design/themes/[THEME_NAME]/templates/addons/my_changes/hooks/index/content.pre.tpl

#with content 
<div id="{$runtime.controller}" class="{$runtime.mode}{if $runtime.controller=='categories'} category{$smarty.request.category_id}{/if}{if $runtime.controller=='pages'} page{$smarty.request.page_id}{/if}{if $runtime.controller=='products'} product{$smarty.request.product_id}{/if}">

#add file
design/themes/[THEME_NAME]/templates/addons/my_changes/hooks/index/content.post.tpl

#with content 
<!--{$runtime.controller}--></div>

The only difference now is that you don't need to use body selector, the new css selectors are:

#homepage 
div#index.index{}
#all categories 
div#categories{}
#specific category by category_id 
div#categories.category1{}
#all products 
div#products{}
#specific products by product_id 
div#products.product1{}
#all pages
div#pages{}
#specific page by page_id 
div#pages.page1{}

PS: You will need to have My Changes add-on active.

I hope that helps,

Is it also possible to show the category class when you are on a product page?

 

Example

Category: Books > Aladin

Body class on product page = Aladin

Use the following code

<div class="{if $runtime.controller == 'products' && $runtime.mode == 'view' && $product}{$product.main_category|lower}{/if}"></div>
