[Solved] Removed Sub-category Pictures - picture placeholders to far apart now...

[jtlswanson]

Hey folks, I’m using 1.4.2.5.

Removing the subcategory pictures mentioned here: http://www.prestashop.com/forums/viewreply/472540/ works great changing the coding in the category.tpl file! But changing the coding in the global.css file does not make a difference in bringing the subcategories closer together (Am I correct in thinking that in 1.4.2.5 global.css it’s changed to “.inline_list li” not “ul.inline_list li”). There’s still a lot of spacing between the subcategories (see attached photo)…any ideas to work with 1.4.2.5?

Thanks in advance for help and suggestions!

Remove from ..your theme/category.tpl this code. Around line 65.

{*

getCategoryLink($subcategory.id_category, $subcategory.link_rewrite)|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}" title="{$subcategory.name|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}">
                       {if $subcategory.id_image}
getCatImageLink($subcategory.link_rewrite, $subcategory.id_image, 'medium')}" alt="" width="{$mediumSize.width}" height="{$mediumSize.height}" />
                       {else}

                       {/if}


getCategoryLink($subcategory.id_category, $subcategory.link_rewrite)|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}">{$subcategory.name|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}

*}

Thanks Jaro61!

It works, but now I am getting a 1 liner that just says "Subcategories" in its place...

See attach image

2 lines above and remove

 {l s='Subcategories'}

Hey Jaro61,

When I changed the code, all my subcategories got removed from the page...I just want to decrease the spaces between the name of subcategories, as it was mentioned in original post.

Do you have any idea how to do that?

[jaro61]

Try this..

rocky's hack works fine, but I would bring two changes :

1/
In the .tpl files, instead of using
<!-- and -->
to comment some HTML code, it may be better to use the smarty comments :
{* and *}
The difference is that the HTML comments will remain in the page source code and can be seen.

2/
in the global.css, I would put instead :

ul.inline_list li { float:left; text-align:center; width : 100px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; margin-top : 30px; margin-bottom : 20px}

(line 67)

Thanks, although I haven't tried your code because meanwhile I found a solution for this problem:

just change the height in category.css to reduce spaces between subcategories:

body#category #subcategories li { height: 136px; width: 108px; margin-right: 3px }

change the height to 70px or whatever you want...

If I want to remove the subcategories completely from the main content, would adding this in global.css cause problems?:

#center_column #subcategories {

display: none;

}

hi, the above given code is not functioning in my Site (Prestashop version 1.4.4.1). Actually I don't have pictures of all product and sub categories. So I want to disable the pictures for Sub Categories and for Products). Can you perhaps help me?

From another thread on this subject:

 

You can change the "no image" picture in Back-end under the Tools tab -> Languages. You can see the list of languages used in your site. Click the edit link of the language which you are going to change the image. In a "No-picture" image field, browse and select the image you want. Lastly, click save.


Hope this will help you guys and to others looking for the same solution..
