Hello:

Another question. I couldn’t locate any good icons to use for my categories for virtuemart – so in the meantime, I am using some web 2.0 buttons with the category titles in them. The problem is that a couple of the titles are long – when displaying the category screen, the icons get shrunk to fit 4 across – and you can’t read the buttons on the larger category names.

So – is there a way to change the category display icons from 4 across to less (2 or 3)? I saw a similar question in the forum without an answer (so I did look!).

Thanks.

Update to this. I think that I found a solution – but if someone could verify this, that would be great:

Update the following file:
/components/com_virtuemart/themes/ja-zeolite/templates/common/categoryChildlist.tpl.php

At the beginning of the file – change the $categories_per_row from 4 to whatever you want

if( !isset( $categories_per_row )) {

$categories_per_row = 4;
}

** Question for everyone – I used filezilla to download/update the file. Is this somethng that can be done within the joomla/virtumart online interfaces (kind of like wordpress- you can update the template files while being logged into the actual wordpress file. Thanks **
