Tables in subcategories

Hi

Where do I alter the
68Classifiedsv3/category.php?type=9

I want to put some tables in BUT cannot find where and how to do this.

I have looked in

subcategories.tpl.php

But that did not work
To give you a idea something like this

I believe he is just using the showlistings2.tpl.php template file. This can be changed through administration -> search settings. Then selecting the search results template to short description display.

Hi Eric

Hope you had a nice break.

Yes I found that out BUT then it does not show all the details.

In any case I want to alter it to how I want it with tables etc etc.

So where do I go to start putting in some code for the tables etc.

When I use debug it brought up the " subcategories.tpl.php" but no matter what I do in that it will not work.

Honestly I am not sure what all changes he made to the template to get it show extra fields and so forth. But I am pretty sure that template file is showlistings2.tpl.php you may want to ask him about it though.

Hi John

Yes all the above is correct BUT if I select the "short description display"

it cuts out all the other info.

Dose the "showlistings2.tpl.php" use a block insert or somthing for the listings?
No matter what I do in that file ( like putting a table in it) it will not show.

BTW when you select the "short description display" from admin where is that template file?

If I can find that I might be able to see how it has put the table in it.

I still do not get the details etc.

John have you a snap shot on what you get so we are talking about the same thing here please.

Yours is nothing like what I get.

I will go and get Hypersnap and install that I then can show you what I get

Ok John

I have put back the default showlisting2.tpl.php

Here is what I get
1) small details
2) Long details

John

It is NOT the details etc that I want.

If you look at yours you have a table layout with a border round all the box's

Also if you look at this site you can see that it has table borders round the details etc

This is what I did ask in my first post.

"How to put a table in the listings"

This has some what got side tracked.

John

I have found out how to do it see snap shot

Thanks for all your help any way

John (Build),
Could you share your process.

Yes no problem, Glad to help some one for a change

Ok the file to alter is

Alter
viewlisting.tpl.php

MAKE A COPY OF THE VIEWLISTING.TPL.PHP FIRST


Look for
{* Now show the main table *}

Around line 33

then replace it with the below

Code:

{* Now show the main table *}
<table border="8" class="tableborder">
    <tr>
      <th colspan="2"><strong>{$listingtitle}</strong></th>
    </tr>
    <tr>
    <td valign="top" class="pformleft">
        <table width="100%" height="100%" border="1" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="1" class="norm">
             {if $viewseller=="Y"}
            <tr> 
                <td><strong>{$smarty.const.LANG_SELLER}:</strong></td>
                <td><a href="viewmember.php?member={$ownerid}">{$ownername}</a></td>
            </tr>
            {/if}
            {if $viewaddress=="Y"}
            <tr>
                <td><strong>{$smarty.const.LANG_ADDRESS}:</strong></td>
                <td>{$owneraddress}</td>
            </tr>
            {/if}
            {if $viewcity=="Y"}
            <tr>
                <td><strong>{$smarty.const.LANG_CITY}:</strong></td>
                <td>{$ownercity}</td>
            </tr>
            {/if}
            {if $viewstate=="Y"}
            <tr>
                <td><strong>{$smarty.const.LANG_STATE}:</strong></td>
                <td>{$ownerstate}</td>
            </tr>
            {/if}
            {if $viewcountry=="Y"}
            <tr> 
                <td><strong>{$smarty.const.LANG_COUNTRY}:</strong></td>
                <td>{$ownercountry}</td>
            </tr>
            {/if}
            {if $viewphone=="Y"}
            <tr> 
                <td><strong>{$smarty.const.LANG_PHONE}:</strong></td>
                <td>{$ownerphone}</td>
            </tr>
            {/if}
            {if $viewprice=="Y"}
            <tr> 
                <td><strong>{$smarty.const.LANG_PRICE}:</strong></td>
                <td>{$listingprice}</td>
            </tr>
            {/if}
            {if $viewdate=="Y"}
            <tr>
                <td><strong>{$smarty.const.LANG_DATE_ADDED}:</strong></td>
                <td>{$dateadded|date_format:$dateformat}</td>
            </tr>
            {/if}
            {if $viewexpiration=="Y"}
            <tr> 
                <td><strong>{$smarty.const.LANG_EXPIRATION}:</strong></td>
                <td>{$listingexpiration|date_format:$dateformat}</td>
            </tr>
            {/if}
            {if $url<>""}
            <tr> 
                <td><strong>{$smarty.const.LANG_EXT_URL}:</strong></td>
                <td>{$url|linkurl:30}</td>
            </tr>
            {/if}
            {if $viewhits=="Y"}
            <tr> 
                <td><strong>{$smarty.const.LANG_VIEWS}:</strong></td>
                <td>{$listingviews}</td>
            </tr>
            {/if}
            {* Extra Fields *}
            {foreach from=$extra item=extras}
            <tr>
                <td><strong>{$extras.title}:</strong></td>
                <td>
                    {if isset($extras.value)}
                      {foreach key=key item=item from=$extras.value}
                        {$item}<br />
                      {/foreach}
                     {/if}
                </td>
            </tr>
            {/foreach}
            {* End Extra Fields *}
            {if $description<>""}
            <tr> 
                <td colspan="2"><strong>{$smarty.const.LANG_DESCRIPTION}: </strong><br />{$description}</td>
            </tr>
            {/if}
        </table>

That should be it
