Need To Re-Arrange Categories List - Will Pay!!

Post by swiftmed »

Hey guys & gals,

I need to re-arrange how my categories list page is layed out. Instead of having my categories in a list-style, id like to have them layed out in exactly the same way as the gallery themselves.

So like 4 categories per row, with the category name under each of them.

Im willing to pay for advice on how to do this, or for somebody to do this on my behalf.

Please leave us a message below...

Hi, why you don't create a link to some main category and under this main category 4 subcategories will be displayed...

so in fact it will be menu link to categories where categories will be displayed (menu link to main category = categories view, subcategories = categories)

Then the categories will be listed the same way as gallery view ...

Hi Jan,

This was an EXCELLENT idea. It worked absolutely perfectly, and gave me the exact layout i was after....Thank You!!

Two problems....
1. My sub-categorys arnt displaying an image. They are showing a folder icon.
2. The categories names are being cut off...they arnt showing the whole title.

Please see example... http://www.mileycyrus-online.co.uk/mile ... ppearances

Thanks
Andy

1. My sub-categorys arnt displaying an image. They are showing a folder icon.
-> Category View Setttings (Thumbnails)
-> Display random image as folder icon
2. The categories names are being cut off...they arnt showing the whole title.
-> Category View Setttings (Thumbnails)
-> Number of Characters in Name
