Category Grid Bug?

Post by jcw2m » Tue Oct 23, 2012 1:50 pm

On conlibs like categorygridpage.ascx, we found that we must add <div style="clear:both; float:none;"></div> below the last paging panel or product to allow the page to display as expected following the layout rules. This is the case using out of the box themes.

When the category page sort is set to display anything greater than 12 (going from memory) to 48 items for example, page content no longer stays within the confines of the intended layout. It either spills over or is cut off altogether. As a general rule regardless of theme, I usually also eliminate the category item assigned heights as well. This does help when clients demand height consistency and are willing to keep page title lengths in check, but more often than not they don't. With the stated heights in place, content overlaps depending on the length of titles and such.

Here is a sample where the clearing div was added and heights eliminated: http://dev.holidayham.com/Smoked-Turkey-Breast-C8.aspx
