Default Help

Hello - First let me state (as Larry already knows) I am NOT a developer/coder so detailed help would be appreciated.

When I first launched my site I decided to eliminate 'Featured Listings' functionality from my script.

I'd like to bring the ability back but can't remember where the script was and what it was for 2 rows and 4 columns.

Any help is GREATLY appreciated.

What did you eliminate - a file, a piece of code in a file or did you simply turn it off in the admin control panel?

If you have it allowed in your control panel and you did not delete any files then you should be able to put something like this below in your home.tpl file for example.


{feature_listings_horizontal number=8 cols=4 table_attr='width="100%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="3"' td_attr='style="border-top: 1px dashed #999;"'}

And this reminds me, best to keep a backup of the default template or even better make a copy of it and rename that copy to actually develop with. You never know when you may need to go back to something which always works.

I just deleted the code that you replied with. Where do I insert that code within the home.tpl file?

Thanks a million for the help.

At the bottom of the original home.tpl around line 35, just below the </table><br />
Put this (original code from the v4 home.tpl):
<div id="newlistings">
<h2>{$smarty.const.LANG_FEATURED_LISTINGS}</h2>
{feature_listings_horizontal number=8 cols=4 table_attr='width="100%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="3"' td_attr='style="border-top: 1px dashed #999;"'}
</div>
