Number of Columns & Rows in CategoryGridPage

[MMIKAL]

Hi guys

I was wondering if any of you know, how to set the number of Columns & Rows in CategoryGridPage (just like the FeaturedProductGrid).
It displays 3 cols by 5 rows as default. There are _Cols and _Rows in the control which are not public, however setting them to different values
then default (3 by 5) seems to have no effect.

Thank you in advance.

Edit Website/ConLib/CategoryGridPage.ascx.cs file and locate following lines of code in it.

Code: Select all

private int _Cols = 3;
private int _Rows = 5;

simply update these values 3 and 5 according to your requirements, save it and you are done with this.

Thanks Mazhar for your reply, but I already mentioned in my original post that changing these values has no effect on the number of displayed columns and rows, it just displays items in 3 columns, no matter what you set them. The total item displayed is changed though to the cols x Rows, but number of columns are always 3 .

Also, I was wondering you can tell me how to show a Goto/Jump page for ecah category, meaning user can enter a page number in a box and press go button, so they jum to a page , in cases that there are many pages.

Thanks in Advance.

You probably have to change the % and/or columns in the .ascx file. It probably says 33% columns 3, something like that.

Nevermind, It was more user error.

Hi I know its an old post, but it might help someone else......

Judy was correct, search for 'RepeatColumns=' in the ASCX file.
