As far as i know, there is no performance differences, just the plug and play factor.

Dominick,

I can't say whether it loads faster or not, but I can say that because of the way that my mod is set up, the required additional javascripts and css files needed for this feature doesn't load except on the pages needed (eg: only when the showlistings templates are used). This means that you don't have to load those items on every page that uses the layout.tpl file which is of course every page seen by the visitors.

The point is, I created and offer this Gallery View Module as a service to the owners of 68 Classifieds sites as a turnkey, easy to use, plug & play, set it and forget solution that hasn't been available previously at a very reasonable price.

For those that don't know how to code, it just works. For those that do, can either build it themselves from scratch or purchase it and then tweak it to their hearts desire.

The only text used that is not standard is the title of the actual tabs, "List View" and "Gallery View". The module relies on template files for the display, so you can of course modify the template files directly that are located in the templates folder in the module folder.

or the views_showlistings2.tpl file. The template used corresponds directly with what you have selected in the administration for the standard listings view. e.g. showlistings.tpl and showlistings2.tpl.

How can I hide the gallery view if no listings are placed in the categories?
I have tried it with

{if $data[td]<>"" && $data[td].total > 0}
{/if}

in the views_listings.tpl without succes. Any ideas or suggestions?

Not sure why you would want to do this as both of the views (the default and gallery) shows the standard setting of no results.

I haven't tried nor tested this, but I would try something like this right above {* Views starts here *}:

{if $results}

Then just below where it says {* End of views *}:

{else}
<!-- put whatever XHTML type of display element for the text like, <div>, <span>, <p> -->
{$smarty.const.LANG_SEARCH_NO_RESULTS}
<!-- end whatever display element for the text like </div>, </span>, </p> -->
{/if}

FYI: The code you posted isn't going to work, because there is no $data[td], so you are testing against a variable in a non-existing array.

Mike,

Normally our users place only listings in the sub categories. If people browse true the categories then always the "empty"gallery view is shown with the text no results, click here to search again. The code your provide in the previous post (thank you for that ) works for me for the categories if I comment out

{$smarty.const.LANG_SEARCH_NO_RESULTS}

On the other hand now it shows also in the empty sub categories no message any more......
