Hi,

I know there is a master template (shoppage_header.htm & shoppage_trailer.htm) for the store.

But this template applied on all pages. How can I set this based on categories? For example:

- category01 = shoppage_header_cat01.htm & shoppage_trailer_cat01.htm
- category02 = shoppage_header_cat02.htm & shoppage_trailer_cat02.htm
- category03 = shoppage_header_cat03.htm & shoppage_trailer_cat03.htm


Thanks for the help!

As far as I know you can only use different templates for different categories on the actual product (extended description) pages.

On the product setup page under Advanced Fields, Template file.

Hi,

I guess this would need a deep customization to the software then :(

Hi all,

I finally made code changes that is a temporary fix. Simply find below code in shopheaders.asp:

dyninclude xMySite2 & "/templates/" & getconfig("xtemplate") & "/shoppage_header.htm"

dyninclude xMySite2 & "/templates/" & getconfig("xtemplate") & "/shoppage_trailer.htm"

then change it to this:

if (instr(request.ServerVariables("SCRIPT_NAME"), "cat=Dining") = 0) then
dyninclude xMySite2 & "/templates/" & getconfig("xtemplate") & "/shoppage_header_cat01.htm"
else
dyninclude xMySite2 & "/templates/" & getconfig("xtemplate") & "/shoppage_header.htm"
end if

if (instr(request.ServerVariables("SCRIPT_NAME"), "cat=Dining") = 0) then
dyninclude xMySite2 & "/templates/" & getconfig("xtemplate") & "/shoppage_trailer_cat01.htm"
else
dyninclude xMySite2 & "/templates/" & getconfig("xtemplate") & "/shoppage_trailer.htm"
end if

the above code will applies to a category with name of "Dining". You would also need to make sure that both shoppage_header_cat01.htm & shoppage_trailer_cat01.htm templates are created in the same template folder that is currently enabled.


Need your thought about this guys!
