SOLVED - Full width category page on 8.1.5?

[GardusTech]

Recently switched from 1.6 to 8.1.

All is fine but I can't remove the left side navigation panel on the category page, or at least the placeholder for it.

I'm on classic theme, some tutorial say to change the layout in the theme&logo page but it seems that page or button doesn't exist anymore in this version.

I guess I need to look into tpl file, but which one?

Thanks for anyone who will help.

Add to custom.css

 

    .col-lg-9 {
        float: left;
        width: 100%;
    }
}

Hello

when you enter in Theme & Logo page in the bottom on the right side you have a button "Choose Layout"..click on it.There you can configure all main pages of your website...so in this case you set Category page choosing "Fullwidth"..it means that lateral column will not appear.

No need to touch css!!

Ciao

Fabry no, the "Choose Layout" is not present anymore. I wrote that in the 1st post. Maybe it was removed in the 8.1.5 version?

It appear they changed the way the theme can be personalized, now there's something called a "child template" in advanced customization.

In that child template there is this file:

child_classic\assets\css\custom.css

there's ony this code in it:

/*
 * Custom code goes here.
 * A template should always ship with an empty custom.css
 */
 #header{ background: red !important; }

I cannot find custom.css anywhere else.

ComGrafPL, should I try to add the code in this file, salve the zip file and reload it?

I tried to put the code at the end exactly as you wrote it but when I try to load it it gives me an error.

Never do that it will break your theme, worst advice ever.

 

 

 Just go to Tema & Logo section and there on bottom right will be button with advanced layout settings where you can switch to full width for category page. If you not see this button turn off ps_editionbasic module.

[GardusTech]

I turned off the module but the layout button is still nowhere to be found.

Are you logged as administrator? Did you try turn off ps_editionbasic module?

 

[GardusTech]

Yes I'm administrator. Yes I did turn it off, actually I uninstalled it too.

If you still not see this button you can try in url change this part:

index.php/improve/design/themes/?_token=

to this:

index.php/improve/design/themes/customize-layouts?_token=

Thanks! The direct url worked, no idea why I didn't have access to it.

This issue just happened to me as well. I'm switching from 1.7.8 to 8.1.4 and the button is nowhere to be found indeed.

The direct link work for me as well. It should be a bug then.

 

@PhotoshopAddict : you screen doesn't show a V8 interface. That's why you see it.

Glad this was useful to someone else!

@GardusTech @Kr0n4 @endriu107  I have the same problem - doing a fresh install of 8.1.4 and I do not see the button to change the widths/page layouts.  I saw the index.php reference but don't know how to change it.  Sounds a bit dumb, considering I've been using Prestashop since 2011 !  I can find index.php in my FTP but then I can't see how to change it ... can you give me some pointers.  Thanks so much in advance.

Log in your admin panel than change the part after administration/. You have to go to https://www.yoursite.com/administration/index.php/improve/design/themes/customize-layouts?_token=

@GardusTech  Thank you so much for replying.  I get it now and have go the "Customise Layouts" button.  Why the "Theme & Logo" function is available but doesn't show in 8.1.4 I do not know - I think I'll ask the question in a new thread, maybe it comes back in a newer version.

My site is still not filling the whole screen so maybe it's a ratio thing .... thanks again !
